Concrete Crack Repair In Rib Lake, WI
In Rib Lake, WI, a home's garage and walkway faced significant concrete shifting, creating a tripping hazard for the homeowner's wife using a wheelchair. Our team at Sure-Dry expertly addressed this issue by employing our PolyLevel system to stabilize and level the surfaces. Using high-strength polyurethane foam, we knew we could fill the subsurface voids and raise the slabs with precision. We further secured the concrete slabs by applying our superior NexusPro Joint Sealant, safeguarding against future soil erosion and maintaining durability despite seasonal weather changes.
Sump Pump & Basement Drainage System Installation In Rib Lake, WI
Before
The homeowner in Rib Lake, WI was dealing with a wet basement caused by groundwater intrusion along the wall-to-floor joint during heavy rain and seasonal snowmelt. Water would seep across the basement floor, creating damp conditions, musty odors, and concern about long-term moisture damage. The basement did not have an effective drainage system or a reliable sump pump installation to manage rising groundwater, increasing the risk of ongoing water intrusion and potential flooding.
After
Sure-Dry installed a comprehensive basement waterproofing solution designed to permanently control groundwater and protect the basement. An interior perimeter drainage system using WaterGuard® Drainage System was installed below the slab to capture water at the wall-to-floor joint and direct it efficiently to a newly installed SuperSump® sump pump system. The sump pump provides dependable water removal during heavy rain events common in north-central Wisconsin, keeping the basement dry and protected.
The basement is now dry, controlled, and safeguarded against future water intrusion, giving the homeowner lasting peace of mind.
Sunken Concrete Patio and Walkway Lifted and Leveled in Rib Lake, WI
Before
The homeowner in Rib Lake, WI was experiencing uneven concrete along the exterior walkway and garage apron, creating tripping hazards and poor water drainage toward the foundation. Sections of the concrete had settled due to soil movement and moisture-related erosion common in north-central Wisconsin, while visible cracks and open joints allowed additional water to penetrate beneath the slabs, accelerating settlement and deterioration.
After
Sure-Dry restored the concrete walkway and garage apron by lifting and stabilizing the settled slabs using PolyLevel® concrete lifting foam. The high-density polyurethane material was injected beneath the concrete to fill voids, permanently stabilize the soil, and return the slabs to proper elevation. Once the concrete was leveled, cracks and joints were sealed with NexusPro® flexible joint sealant to prevent water intrusion and protect against freeze-thaw damage.
The walkway and garage apron are now level, safe, and properly sealed, improving both functionality and long-term durability for the home.
Musty Damp Crawlspace Receives Encapsulation & Insulation in Rib Lake, WI
Before
The crawl space beneath this Rib Lake, WI home showed clear signs of moisture intrusion and energy loss, including exposed earth, unsealed rim joists, and poorly insulated foundation walls. Seasonal moisture and cold air infiltration were contributing to elevated humidity levels, musty odors, and inconsistent floor temperatures above the crawl space—common indicators that crawl space repair and crawl space encapsulation were needed in this part of north-central Wisconsin.
After
Sure-Dry installed a full crawl space encapsulation system using CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier to fully isolate the crawl space from ground moisture, along with SilverGlo™ insulation panels to improve thermal performance along the foundation walls. The rim joists were sealed and insulated using RimTight™ to eliminate air leakage points and reduce heat loss.
The crawl space is now dry, sealed, and energy efficient, helping protect the home’s structure while improving indoor comfort and air quality.
Crawl Space Encapsulation, Insulation & Sagging Floor Repair in Rib Lake, WI
Before
The crawl space beneath this Rib Lake, WI home showed ongoing moisture exposure, inadequate insulation, and sagging floor structure caused by undersized and settling support posts. Exposed soil allowed ground moisture to migrate upward, while unsealed rim joists and poorly insulated crawl space walls contributed to cold floors and elevated humidity levels. These conditions are common indicators that crawl space repair and crawl space encapsulation were needed to protect the home’s structure and improve energy efficiency.
After
Sure-Dry completed a full crawl space encapsulation and stabilization solution by installing CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier to isolate the crawl space from ground moisture, SilverGlo™ insulation panels along the foundation walls for improved thermal performance, and RimTight™ insulation at the rim joists to eliminate air leakage. To address floor sagging, adjustable SmartJack® support posts were installed to stabilize and permanently support the floor system above.
The crawl space is now dry, sealed, structurally supported, and energy efficient, resulting in improved comfort and long-term protection for the home.
