Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Before:
A homeowner in Denmark noticed bouncy, uneven floors, small gaps opening at baseboards, and interior doors beginning to stick. In the crawl space, several wood posts were tilting on undersized pads, and some joists showed signs of deflection. The homeowner wanted a permanent, code-compliant fix that wouldn’t require major demolition.

After:
We installed the SmartJack® system to stabilize and lift the floor system. Each steel support was set on an engineered footing designed to distribute loads and resist settlement. After placing new steel support beams where needed, we adjusted the SmartJacks® to bring floors back toward level and eliminate bounce.

The result is a solid, stable first floor and a crawl space with reliable, adjustable structural support for long-term performance.

In Casco, WI, the homes' basement walls were increasingly compromised, showing cracks and water infiltration, a substantial concern for the homeowner. As you can see in the before photo, these issues required immediate attention. At Sure-Dry, our certified technicians swiftly addressed the problem by installing the WaterGuard® drainage system to ensure effective water management and utilizing the PowerBrace™ System to secure and stabilize the failing walls. The after photo showcases the stability and dryness restored to the basement, reflecting our commitment to deliver lasting protection for homeowners.

Before:
A homeowner in Luxemburg saw stair-step cracks spreading through a block basement wall and a slight inward bow after heavy rains. Seasonal soil pressure was worsening the movement, raising concerns about long-term structural safety and resale value.

After:
We installed the GeoLock® Wall Anchor System, connecting interior steel wall plates to galvanized earth anchors set in stable soil beyond the backfill zone. Each anchor location required only a small exterior excavation, and once tensioned, the system provided immediate lateral support with the ability to be tightened over time to help straighten the wall.

The wall is now stabilized against further inward movement, and the homeowner has confidence in the long-term safety of their foundation.

In Egg Harbor, WI, a homeowner noticed troubling cracks in their foundation under the garage, as seen in the before photo. These signs of settling and instability led them to contact us for a lasting solution. We utilized our Push Pier System, a hallmark innovation in foundation repair. This system employs engineered steel tubes, anchored deep into stable soil or bedrock, to permanently stabilize the home and restore foundation integrity, as shown in the after photo. This effective solution resolved the issue, promising peace of mind and sustained property value.

To stabilize a home's foundation, the GeoLocks are the best solution, however, they aren't the prettiest view for a finished basement which is why we have the Hide A Way Covers. These covers fit perfectly over the GeoLocks leaving a clean, presentable look while also guaranteeing a stable foundation, it's the perfect solution!
