Sure-Dry Before & After Photos

Before

The homeowner in Marinette, WI noticed the concrete garage apron and the front walkway leading to the front door had settled over time, creating uneven surfaces that made pulling into the garage less smooth and walking to the front entrance more hazardous. The sunken slabs also allowed water to collect, increasing the risk of additional soil erosion beneath the concrete. During our inspection, our concrete leveling specialist confirmed the slabs were structurally sound, but soil settlement beneath the concrete had created hidden voids. This is a common issue throughout northeastern Wisconsin due to freeze-thaw cycles and changing soil moisture conditions. Instead of replacing the concrete, we recommended lifting and permanently stabilizing it.

After

Our crew restored both the garage apron and front walkway using PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam to carefully raise the settled slabs back toward their original position. Unlike traditional mudjacking (slab jacking), PolyLevel is lightweight, waterproof, and cures in minutes, allowing the concrete to be used again quickly while placing minimal additional weight on the supporting soils. The homeowner now has a smoother transition into the garage, a safer walkway to the front door, improved drainage, and enhanced curb appeal—all without the expense and disruption of replacing the existing concrete.

Before

The homeowner in Marinette, WI was experiencing water intrusion in their shorter basement, putting stored belongings at risk every time heavy rain or snowmelt increased groundwater around the home. Although the basement wasn't used as living space, it served as valuable storage, and the homeowner wanted to protect those items before moisture caused permanent damage. During our inspection, we found water entering along the wall-floor joint (cove joint), a common symptom of hydrostatic pressure in Wisconsin basements where changing groundwater levels and freeze-thaw cycles continually push moisture toward the foundation.

After

To permanently protect the basement, our crew installed the WaterGuard Drainage System to capture groundwater before it reached the floor and direct it into a new TripleSafe Sump Pump System for dependable water removal—even during heavy storms or power outages. To further improve the basement environment, we installed an Aspen Air Purifier to help reduce airborne particles and improve the overall air quality. The homeowner now has peace of mind knowing their stored belongings are protected by a complete waterproofing solution designed to keep the basement dry and healthier year-round.

Before

The homeowner in Marinette, WI wanted to make their basement brighter, safer, and more functional by adding an egress window. The existing basement had limited natural light and lacked a code-compliant emergency escape opening, making it less inviting and restricting future use of the space. During our inspection, we determined the foundation wall was an excellent candidate for an egress window installation. For many Wisconsin homeowners, adding an egress window is one of the best ways to improve both the safety and value of a home while preparing a basement for additional living space.

After

Our crew completed the transformation by carefully excavating outside the foundation, precision-cutting the concrete wall, and installing a new Egress Window System with a properly sized window well—all in just one day. The new window floods the basement with natural light, provides a safe emergency exit, and creates a more open, comfortable feel. Once the installation was complete, the homeowner had a basement that was not only brighter and more inviting but also better suited for future finishing projects while meeting modern safety standards.

The homeowner in Marinette, WI had started remodeling their basement with plans to create additional living space, but those plans quickly changed when water intrusion damaged much of the finished area. After removing drywall, flooring, and other water-damaged materials, they wanted to address the underlying issues before rebuilding. During our inspection, we found groundwater entering along the wall-floor joint (cove joint) and identified weakened floor support that required additional structural reinforcement. These conditions are common in Wisconsin basements, where hydrostatic pressure and seasonal freeze-thaw cycles can lead to both water intrusion and settling beneath the home. Rather than rebuilding over existing problems, the homeowner chose to invest in permanent waterproofing and structural support first.

After

Our production team installed the WaterGuard Drainage System around the interior perimeter to capture groundwater before it reached the basement floor and direct it into a new SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System for reliable water removal. To restore proper support beneath the home, we also installed the SmartJack Structural Support System, permanently stabilizing the floor system above. With the waterproofing and structural repairs complete, the homeowners can confidently move forward with remodeling their basement, knowing the foundation has been properly protected from future water intrusion and floor settlement.

Before

The homeowner in Marinette, WI began noticing signs that their floors were no longer as solid as they once were. Uneven floors and reduced support beneath the home raised concerns about the structural integrity of the floor system. During our inspection, our crawl space repair specialist found weakened floor supports that were allowing sections of the floor above to settle. These conditions are common in Wisconsin homes where aging support systems, moisture, and natural settling can reduce the strength of the crawl space structure over time. To restore stability, we recommended a permanent structural support solution.

After

Our crew installed the SmartJack Structural Support System beneath the home's floor framing to provide permanent support where it was needed most. Each SmartJack was carefully positioned and adjusted to stabilize the floor system and help restore proper support. Engineered for long-term performance, the SmartJack system is designed to resist future settlement while providing homeowners with greater confidence in the strength and stability of their home. The homeowner now has a solid foundation beneath their floors and peace of mind knowing the structural concerns have been professionally addressed.
