Sure-Dry Before & After Photos

Before
The basement in this Pembine, WI home showed signs of lateral foundation movement, including horizontal cracking and inward bowing along the block walls. Expansive soils and seasonal freeze-thaw cycles had placed continued pressure on the foundation, creating structural concerns and visible wall displacement. The homeowner began searching for foundation repair near me after noticing cracking that continued to widen—clear indicators that professional foundation repair Wisconsin service was needed.
These symptoms pointed to ongoing soil pressure requiring a permanent foundation repair contractor solution to prevent further structural movement.

After
Sure-Dry permanently stabilized the foundation using GeoLock® Wall Anchors, a proven wall anchor installation Wisconsin solution designed to counteract external soil pressure. Steel earth anchors were embedded in stable soil beyond the foundation wall and connected to interior steel wall plates, then mechanically tightened to immediately stabilize the structure and allow for potential wall straightening over time.
The foundation walls are now structurally secured, preventing further inward movement and restoring long-term stability to the home.

Before
The basement in this Pembine, WI home was experiencing recurring water intrusion during heavy rain and spring snowmelt, with groundwater entering along the wall-to-floor joint and pooling near the existing sump area. The original pump system lacked the capacity and backup protection needed to manage seasonal groundwater levels, creating ongoing wet basement repair concerns. The homeowner began searching for basement waterproofing near me after repeated cleanup efforts and concerns about potential flooding during power outages.
These symptoms indicated the need for a comprehensive basement waterproofing Wisconsin solution with both perimeter drainage and dependable sump pump installation Wisconsin protection.

After
Sure-Dry installed a full interior drainage system using WaterGuard® to capture groundwater at the footing level and direct it to a new primary SuperSump® system. For added protection, an UltraSump® battery backup pump was integrated to ensure continued operation during power outages and high-water events.
The basement is now protected by a reliable interior drainage system basement Wisconsin homeowners can depend on, delivering consistent water control and long-term peace of mind.

This home in Niagara, WI was having issues with water getting into their basement and no system in place for the water to drain to and discharge away from the home.   

To solve this issue, Sure-Dry Basement Systems installed their SuperSump® Premier Pump System. It is engineered to help keep the basement dry and healthy for extended periods of time, even in times of heavy water intrusion. The SuperSump® includes a powerful Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement. The SuperSump® can also be installed with an optional UltraSump® Battery Backup Sump Pump, which can pump out 11,500 gallons or more on a single charge!

Before: Sinking Concrete Threatens Critical HVAC Equipment

At NWTC's Niagara campus, a small but essential concrete pad supporting a commercial AC compressor unit had begun to settle and tilt unevenly. Over time, shifting soils beneath the slab caused it to sink by several inches—putting strain on the compressor lines and creating long-term risk for the system’s performance and longevity.

The college’s facilities team wanted a solution that was fast, clean, and wouldn’t require moving or disconnecting the equipment.

After: Leveled, Stabilized, and Protected with PolyLevel®

Sure-Dry installed the PolyLevel polyurethane foam lifting system, which allowed our team to:

• Lift and re-level the sunken concrete pad with precise control

• Minimize vibration and disturbance to the attached AC unit

• Avoid costly removal or shutdown of the HVAC system

• Achieve long-term slab stabilization with minimal downtime

The work was completed in just a few hours, and the pad is now perfectly level and structurally sound, protecting both the concrete and the heavy equipment it supports.

Before: The basement of this Niagara, WI, home maintained an average humidity level of 58%, which is higher than the recommended range for a healthy indoor environment. Though there was no standing water, the excessive moisture led to stale air and concerns about potential mold development.

After: Sure-Dry installed a Sedona dehumidifier, designed to automatically monitor and regulate humidity levels. The Sedona’s built-in filtration system and self-draining capability now keep the basement air consistently dry and clean while reducing energy use compared to standard dehumidifiers.

The homeowner can now enjoy a comfortable, odor-free basement with humidity consistently kept at safe, controlled levels.
