Foundation Wall Stabilization & Water Management in Neenah, WI
Before: Cracking Foundation Walls & Moisture Risk
In Neenah, WI, this homeowner was growing increasingly concerned about the visible cracks forming in their basement’s block foundation walls. The walls were bowing inward, signaling signs of structural stress from years of hydrostatic pressure caused by saturated soil outside the home.
Along with the structural concerns, the homeowner had also noticed signs of water seepage—musty odors, occasional dampness on the floor, and pooling after heavy rains. Left untreated, this combination of foundation failure and basement moisture would only get worse, potentially leading to more severe cracks, water intrusion, and costly repairs down the road.
After: Stabilized Walls, Protected Foundation, Peace of Mind
Sure-Dry provided a permanent, dual-solution approach to stabilize the foundation and control the moisture contributing to the problem.
We installed a combination of:
-
GeoLock® Wall Anchors to permanently stabilize and straighten bowing walls by anchoring them to undisturbed soil outside the foundation
-
PowerBrace™ Wall Repair System, a galvanized steel I-beam system that reinforces cracking foundation walls from inside the basement
-
Integration with our basement waterproofing systems (when applicable), helping reduce hydrostatic pressure and prevent further cracking caused by soil saturation
This approach not only stopped the walls from getting worse—it gave the homeowner the option to gradually improve wall alignment over time, thanks to the system’s adjustable design.
Now, the basement is structurally sound, safer, and less vulnerable to moisture problems. Most importantly, the home’s foundation is secure and protected for the long haul.
If you're seeing signs of wall cracking, bowing, or water seepage in your basement, don’t wait.
