Settling Foundation & Wall Repair In Montello, WI
Before: Sagging Floors and Bowing Basement Walls
A homeowner in Montello, WI reached out to Sure-Dry after noticing two troubling issues: the floors above their crawl space were bouncy and uneven, and their basement walls were beginning to bow inward with visible cracking. Seasonal soil movement and years of structural stress had taken a toll, putting the home's stability—and value—at risk.
The home needed more than a cosmetic fix. It required structural reinforcement from the ground up.
After: Permanent Stabilization with SmartJack® and PowerBrace™ Systems
Sure-Dry designed and installed a dual-system solution to address both crawl space and wall support:
-
SmartJack Support Posts were installed beneath the floor joists to lift and stabilize the sagging areas above the crawl space.
-
PowerBrace Wall Reinforcement Beams were anchored along the basement walls to immediately stop inward movement and allow for gradual straightening over time.
The installation was fast, precise, and minimally invasive. The floors were firm and level once again, and the basement walls were stabilized for the long term.
