Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Stair Step Cracks & Bowing Walls Stabilized with Wall Anchors

Before: Cracked Walls Holding Up a Basement Remodel

These Sheboygan homeowners were ready to finish their basement—but ran into a major problem. The block foundation walls were severely cracked, showing classic stairstep patterns and inward bowing—clear signs of foundation failure. With plans to turn the basement into livable space, they knew it had to be fixed before moving forward.

After: Permanent Foundation Stabilization with GeoLock®

We installed a system of GeoLock® Wall Anchors to permanently stabilize the bowing basement walls and stop further movement. By anchoring the walls to stable soil outside the home, this solution offers long-term protection—and helps prevent the water intrusion that often comes with shifting foundations.

Now the basement is ready for the next phase—and the homeowners can finish it with confidence.

Major foundation cracks were an issue for this Fence, WI homeowner, creating concerns not only for structural integrity but also for peace of mind. In the before photo, you see significant wall cracks that can lead to more extensive damage if not addressed. Our expert team installed the GeoLock Wall Anchor System®, a trusted and proven foundation repair solution. Notice the difference in the after photo. This innovative system stabilizes walls using heavy-duty steel earth anchors connected to steel wall plates, reinforced through galvanized steel rods, protecting the home's foundation from further inward movement.

Before
The homeowner in Little Suamico, WI had previously completed basement waterproofing in other areas of the home but noticed early signs of wall movement at a basement corner that had not yet been reinforced. While the waterproofed sections were performing as intended, this localized area showed minor inward movement, raising concerns about long-term structural stability.
Inspection confirmed that the corner section required additional support to prevent further movement and to complement the existing waterproofing system.

After
Sure-Dry stabilized the affected basement corner by installing PowerBrace™ steel beams along with a GeoLock® wall anchor system. These systems were strategically placed to reinforce the small, unaddressed section while integrating seamlessly with the previously installed waterproofing solutions.
The basement corner is now fully secured, ensuring consistent protection and long-term structural performance throughout the foundation.
