Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

In the before photo, notice the bowing foundation walls a homeowner in Elcho, WI was facing — a clear sign of structural strain and growing concern. Wanting a reliable, long-term solution, they turned to our trusted team for help.

To address the issue, we installed the PowerBrace™ Wall Repair System, shown in the after photo. These zinc-plated steel beams were custom-fit to the basement’s dimensions and securely anchored to stabilize the wall. This non-invasive solution permanently reinforces the foundation without the need for excavation.

Thanks to our foundation wall support expertise, the homeowner can now enjoy lasting structural stability and true peace of mind in their home.

Before
A homeowner in Oshkosh, WI began noticing significant signs of foundation wall failure, including horizontal cracking and inward bowing of the basement walls. These issues are common in Wisconsin homes due to expanding clay soils and hydrostatic pressure from heavy rain and snowmelt. As the wall movement progressed, the homeowner grew concerned about the structural integrity of the home and began searching for a trusted foundation repair company and foundation repair contractor in Wisconsin.

The failing walls were no longer able to withstand the lateral pressure from the surrounding soil, putting the home at risk for further structural damage. Bowing wall repair is critical in situations like this, as continued movement can lead to severe instability and costly repairs if not addressed promptly.

After
Sure-Dry installed the CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcement System along with the PowerBrace Wall Stabilization System to permanently stabilize the failing foundation walls. The CarbonArmor system uses high-strength carbon fiber straps bonded directly to the wall to prevent further cracking and movement, while the PowerBrace system provides adjustable steel beam support to reinforce and potentially straighten the walls over time.

Together, these systems created a comprehensive foundation repair solution tailored to the severity of the wall damage.
The walls are now stabilized, and the homeowner has regained confidence in the safety and long-term performance of their home.

After the initial contact with our Customer Care Specialist, we quickly had a System Design Specialist visit their home. Meticulously inspecting the property, our specialist diagnosed the problem—a weakened support system in the crawl space was leading to the instability of the floors.
