Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Before
The homeowner in Little Chute, WI reported sagging floors on the main level, along with concerns originating from the basement. During the inspection, the foundation walls showed signs of inward movement and reduced structural rigidity, which affected proper load transfer and contributed to floor deflection above. These conditions are common in Wisconsin homes where long-term soil pressure and wall movement impact overall structural performance.

After
Sure-Dry installed the SmartJack Support System to stabilize the affected floor joists and beams and restore structural support. They not only provide supplemental support to your failing structure -- they can also often lift failing floor joists or beams, restoring them to their original position.
The homeowner now has a stabilized foundation system and increased confidence in the long-term performance of their home.

Before:
A homeowner in Combined Locks, WI began noticing visible horizontal cracking and inward bowing along multiple basement walls. The movement had worsened after heavy rains, and parts of the finished basement showed drywall separation and uneven floors above. With signs of both lateral and vertical shifting, the foundation required a structural repair plan capable of addressing different failure modes.

After:
To stabilize and reinforce the structure, our team installed a combination of GeoLock® Wall Anchors and PowerBrace™ Support Beams. GeoLocks were used where exterior access allowed anchor installation into stable soil beyond the backfill zone, immediately halting wall movement and enabling future tightening. In tighter areas with no dig access, PowerBraces were mounted floor-to-joist—providing strong interior-only stabilization.

Now, the Combined Locks home has a fully supported foundation with a plan for gradual realignment and long-term protection against soil pressure and structural movement.

Before, a Sherwood homeowner faced the unnerving sight of severe horizontal cracks and bowing walls in their basement, visible evidence of a foundation under stress. Thanks to Sure-Dry, the after photo shines a bright light on a stable, reinstated foundation, courtesy of our GeoLock Wall Anchor System. As you can see, beyond fixing the structure, we've also installed a dependable WaterGuard system, effectively channeling water into the existing sump pump, ensuring peace of mind during even the heaviest of rains.

Before:
A homeowner in Sherwood began noticing horizontal and stair-step cracks forming in their poured concrete foundation about five to six years ago. Over time, one basement wall showed visible inward movement, a sign of lateral pressure from expanding soils around the home. The displacement had worsened gradually, raising concerns about long-term structural stability.

After:
A PowerBrace™ wall reinforcement system was installed to stabilize the bowing wall and prevent further movement. Each steel I-beam was secured at the floor joists and along the footing to distribute loads evenly and allow future tightening.

The wall is now fully supported, restoring structural integrity and giving the homeowner peace of mind about the foundation’s stability.
