Wall Stabilization in Bancroft, WI
The block foundation walls of this home in Bancroft, WI were bowing inward due to hydrostatic pressure from the surrounding wet soil.
To stabilize this home's foundation walls, Sure-Dry installed their Geo-Lock™ Wall Anchor System. Heavy-duty, galvanized earth anchors are embedded in stable, undisturbed soil outside your foundation wall. Each anchor is connected by a steel rod to a wall plate that provides clamping pressure against the inside of the foundation wall. This method also offers the potential to straighten the wall back to its original position.

Settling Foundation & Wall Repair In Montello, WI
Before: Sagging Floors and Bowing Basement Walls
A homeowner in Montello, WI reached out to Sure-Dry after noticing two troubling issues: the floors above their crawl space were bouncy and uneven, and their basement walls were beginning to bow inward with visible cracking. Seasonal soil movement and years of structural stress had taken a toll, putting the home's stability—and value—at risk.
The home needed more than a cosmetic fix. It required structural reinforcement from the ground up.
After: Permanent Stabilization with SmartJack® and PowerBrace™ Systems
Sure-Dry designed and installed a dual-system solution to address both crawl space and wall support:
-
SmartJack Support Posts were installed beneath the floor joists to lift and stabilize the sagging areas above the crawl space.
-
PowerBrace Wall Reinforcement Beams were anchored along the basement walls to immediately stop inward movement and allow for gradual straightening over time.
The installation was fast, precise, and minimally invasive. The floors were firm and level once again, and the basement walls were stabilized for the long term.
Rim Joists Sealed and Insulated with Spray Foam in Stevens Point, WI
The rim joists in the Stevens Point, WI home were inadequately sealed and insulated, allowing drafts and moisture to enter the basement. This resulted in uncomfortable temperatures, increased energy bills, and potential moisture-related issues such as mold and mildew growth. Sure-Dry sealed and insulated the rim joists with high-quality spray foam, creating an airtight barrier. This improvement significantly reduced drafts and moisture infiltration, enhancing overall comfort and energy efficiency. The basement now enjoys more stable temperatures, lower energy costs, and reduced risk of moisture-related problems, contributing to a healthier living environment.
