Sure-Dry Before & After Photos

Before

The homeowner in Nekoosa, WI had begun noticing settlement throughout their driveway, covered porch, and connecting walkway. Uneven concrete surfaces, widening joints, and developing trip hazards were making it more difficult to safely navigate the areas around the home. Water was also collecting in the low spots, increasing the potential for soil erosion beneath the slabs. Many homeowners facing these issues research concrete lifting solutions and compare them to mudjacking, a traditional slab jacking method that relies on a heavy cement-based mixture to raise settled concrete.

After

Sure-Dry restored the driveway, covered porch, and walkway using PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam. The lightweight foam was injected beneath the affected concrete to fill underlying voids, stabilize the supporting soils, and carefully lift each section back toward its intended elevation. Following the concrete leveling process, NexusPro Concrete Joint Sealant was applied to seal cracks and joints, helping prevent future water intrusion beneath the slabs. Unlike mudjacking, PolyLevel cures quickly, requires smaller injection holes, adds less weight to the underlying soils, and provides a durable solution for homeowners seeking professional concrete lifting and concrete leveling services in Wood County.

After receiving a call from homeowners in Vesper, WI about constant water in their basement. The crew was ready to do some waterproofing. 

First, the Sure-Dry team installed the WaterGuard System around their entire basement. The WaterGuard will remove all water that seeps through their concrete walls. It will then collect in the WaterGuard at the bottom of the floor and be carried to the sump pump to be discharged out.

To then remove water in the center of their basement, we installed the TrenchDrain. This will redirect water that has accumulated on their floor and bring it to their sump pump. 

After a big waterproofing job in their basement, these homeowners couldn't be happier knowing their belongings downstairs are safe. 

Before the project, the homeowner in Vesper, WI was dealing with ongoing water intrusion along several basement walls whenever rain or seasonal snowmelt increased groundwater pressure. Water appeared at the cove joint where the slab meets the wall on some runs and tracked down the face of the foundation on others, leaving damp bands, minor floor puddling, and efflorescence. The existing sump pit was shallow and poorly covered, and there was no continuous interior drainage system to manage hydrostatic pressure around the footing. Over time, the musty odor and visible moisture raised concerns about air quality, potential damage to stored belongings, and the long-term health of the foundation in this Wood County home.

After Sure-Dry completed the work, the basement was protected by a combined WaterGuard® and DryTrak® interior drainage solution, all directed into a new SuperSump® system. WaterGuard was installed along the accessible slab edges at the footing to intercept groundwater before it reached the floor surface, while DryTrak was applied at sections where jackhammering the slab was not practical, allowing wall and cove seepage to be collected along the interior face of the wall. Both drainage systems were tied into a properly sized SuperSump basin with an airtight lid, durable liner, and high-capacity pump designed for reliable sump pump installation in Wisconsin basements, with the discharge routed safely away from the foundation.
The homeowner now has a clean, dry, and healthier basement environment, along with confidence that this interior drainage system basement solution will protect their Vesper, WI home through future storms and snowmelt cycles.

The concrete patio of this home in Arpin, WI was sunken, uneven due to soil erosion underneath the slabs.

Sure-Dry Basement Systems was able to lift and level this patio with their PolyLevel® Injection Foam system. PolyLevel® is an expanding polyurethane foam that is injected beneath the concrete to fill the gaps caused by soil erosion and raise and stabilize the concrete surface.

This concrete patio in Arpin, WI had some major, hazardous cracks in it due to heaving from frost. Sure-Dry was able to lift and level the patio with their PolyLevel® Injection Foam system. PolyLevel is an expanding polyurethane foam that is injected beneath the concrete to fill the gaps caused by soil erosion and raise and stabilize the concrete surface. 

After the concrete was lifted and level, Sure-Dry repaired the cracks with their NexusPro Solution. NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant for joints and cracks specially formulated to provide long-lasting flexibility and to stand up to harsh weather conditions. Unlike traditional polyurethane sealants, NexusPro resists UV rays, which means it won't crack, bubble or dry out. That means a single application can seal the joints and cracks in your concrete driveway, patio, pool deck or sidewalk for years to come, protecting it from damage caused by soil compaction and washout.
