Sure-Dry Before & After Photos

Before

The homeowner in Sheboygan, WI noticed their driveway, front walkway, and concrete steps had settled over time, creating uneven surfaces, widening cracks, and potential tripping hazards. Water was beginning to collect in the low areas, increasing the risk of additional soil erosion beneath the concrete. Many homeowners experiencing these issues research concrete lifting solutions and compare them to mudjacking, a traditional slab jacking method that uses a heavy cement-based material to raise settled concrete.

After

Sure-Dry restored the affected concrete surfaces using PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam. The lightweight foam was injected beneath the driveway, walkway, and steps to fill voids and carefully lift each section back toward its proper elevation. Once the concrete leveling process was complete, NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant was applied to seal cracks and joints, helping prevent water intrusion beneath the slabs. Unlike mudjacking, PolyLevel cures quickly, requires smaller injection holes, adds less weight to underlying soils, and provides a long-lasting solution for homeowners seeking professional concrete lifting and concrete step repair services in Sheboygan County.

In the before photo, it is clear to see the concrete has sunken into the Earth. To raise it up, the crew drilled 4 pence sized holes into the concrete and injected polyurethane foam. This foam is waterproof and will not ever be washed out. 

When homeowners in Suamico, WI knew it was time to sell their house, they had some items they wanted to fix up to bring the equity of their home up. One of those things was their sump pump. Their sump pump had grown old, like most things in life do. Every so often they would have small floods and the base of their sump pump was always covered in moisture.

Our crew took out their old sump pump system and installed the TripleSafe Sump Pump System. This system is the best at what it does, it works to discharge any amount of water in a short amount of time. With this system being covered, it will keep the outside of the sump pump dry and always looking nice.

With just a small fix to their home, they equity goes up and so do their smiles! 

To remove the stress of a failed sump pump, our team at Sure-Dry installed the TripleSafe.

This sump pump system has two highly powered pumps that can discharge at a minimum of 5,000 gallons of water in an hour. If those two pumps still can't pump out the water, there is even an additional battery back up pump. 

Before: Constant Water Cleanup, Iron Ochre Problems & Poor Air Quality

In Suamico, WI, this homeowner was at their limit. Iron Ochre buildup was clogging their drainage system, basement water was pooling daily, and they were stuck vacuuming up water twice a day just to stay ahead of the mess. The crawl space was damp, the air was musty, and indoor humidity was affecting the entire home.

With plans to sell in a few years, the homeowner knew they needed a permanent solution—one that would eliminate water issues, improve air quality, and get the basement market-ready.

After: A Waterproofed, Insulated, and Sale-Ready Home
