Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Before: Cracked Walls & Water Worries

In Menasha, this homeowner had a severely cracked block wall, with visible stair-step cracks and signs of inward bowing. Alongside the structural issues, the basement had ongoing water seepage problems, especially during heavy rain. The homeowner was ready to fix the wall and get the water under control—for good.

After: Reinforced, Dry & Insulated

Sure-Dry installed a full foundation and waterproofing system to solve both problems at once:

• PowerBraces™ were installed to stabilize and support the cracked foundation wall

• WaterGuard® was added along the interior perimeter to collect and direct groundwater

• A new sump pump system was installed to remove the water quickly and efficiently

• RimTight® insulation was added at the joist spaces to help regulate temperature and moisture

Now the basement is dry, secure, and structurally sound, with peace of mind built in.

Before

A Menasha, WI homeowner had concerns about the structural support beneath a deck addition attached to their home. Over time, settling soil and inadequate supports can allow an addition to shift or sag, potentially leading to uneven floors and continued structural movement.

After

Sure-Dry installed SmartJack® supports beneath the deck addition to stabilize the structure above.

The adjustable steel supports were positioned beneath the framing to transfer the weight to a more dependable support system. SmartJacks provide permanent stabilization and can be adjusted to help lift settled portions of the structure toward their original position when conditions allow.

With the new structural supports in place, this Menasha homeowner can feel confident that the deck addition has a stronger, more stable foundation beneath it.

Before tackling the challenge of unstable walls in this White Lake home, as clearly visible in the photo, peace of mind for our homeowner was slipping away. But worry turned into relief with our expert installation of the GeoLock Wall Anchor system. Notice how the after photo showcases not just a stabilized structure, but also encapsulates the essence of our mission: providing a lasting solution and a remarkable service experience. Our approach is always about restoring safety and trust, one home at a time.

Before

A homeowner in Kimberly, WI noticed a foundation wall in their bi-level home had developed inward movement and horizontal cracking due to pressure from the surrounding soil. Because the affected wall was partially below grade with windows positioned along it, the repair required careful planning. In addition, a concrete patio outside the home had to be excavated to access the foundation and properly install the exterior components of the repair system. Left untreated, bowing foundation walls can continue to worsen as Wisconsin's expansive soils and freeze-thaw cycles place increasing pressure against the home.

After

Sure-Dry permanently stabilized the foundation using the GeoLock Wall Anchor System. Our crew carefully excavated through the existing concrete patio to reach stable soil for the earth anchors before installing the interior anchor plates directly beneath the basement windows. Once connected with galvanized steel anchor rods, the system was tightened to immediately stabilize the wall and can often be adjusted over time to help straighten it. The homeowner now has a permanently reinforced foundation without the need for a full wall replacement.
