Foundation Repaired & Walls Stabilized with PowerBraces in Mosinee, WI

Before:
In Mosinee, WI, a homeowner observed a basement wall beginning to bow inward, with a horizontal crack forming across the center of the block. Marathon County’s dense, moisture-retentive soils were exerting increasing lateral pressure on the wall—especially during wet seasons and freeze–thaw cycles. The displacement created visible inward deflection, separation along mortar joints, and early signs of structural stress typical of an actively moving foundation wall.

After:
Sure-Dry installed the PowerBrace™ system to stabilize the bowing wall and arrest further movement. Each steel beam was laser-aligned, anchored at the floor and the sill plate, and torque-adjusted to apply controlled corrective pressure. The system now secures the wall in place and allows for future tightening as seasonal soil pressure changes.
This solution provides long-term structural reinforcement designed for Central Wisconsin’s expansive, moisture-sensitive soil conditions.
