Sure-Dry serving Berlin, WI

A homeowner in Berlin, WI contacted Sure-Dry after noticing uneven concrete along both the driveway and the walkway leading to the front door. The settled slabs had created trip hazards, allowed water to collect, and diminished the appearance of the home's exterior. During the inspection, our System Design Specialist evaluated the extent of the settlement, measured slab elevations, and identified areas where supporting soils had shifted. Based on those findings, we recommended PolyLevel® High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam together with NexusPro® Concrete Joint Sealant as the best long-term repair. PolyLevel is a modern alternative to mudjacking, also known as slab jacking, because it provides precise lifting without placing additional weight on unstable soils.

Our installation team injected PolyLevel beneath the settled driveway and walkway slabs, carefully lifting each section to restore a smoother, safer surface and improve drainage away from the home. Once the lifting process was complete, NexusPro was applied to the joints and cracks to help seal out water and reduce the potential for future soil washout beneath the concrete. The completed project improved safety, enhanced curb appeal, and provided the homeowner with a durable concrete leveling solution designed to perform through Wisconsin's changing seasons.

A homeowner in Berlin, WI contacted Sure-Dry because their basement bedroom only had a small window that did not meet current egress code requirements. During the inspection, our team evaluated the existing foundation opening, surrounding grade, and drainage conditions before recommending a RockWell Egress Window System to create a safe, code-compliant emergency escape. Proper excavation, foundation cutting, and grading were completed to ensure the installation would perform reliably for years to come.

Once the installation was complete, the basement bedroom was transformed with a much larger window that provides abundant natural light and, most importantly, a legal emergency exit. In addition to improving safety, the new egress window increased the functionality and value of the finished basement, giving the homeowner confidence that the space now meets modern standards for a legal bedroom.

During the evaluation in Berlin, WI, Sure-Dry’s System Design Specialist reviewed the homeowner’s goal of transforming their unfinished basement into usable living space. The inspection showed that the existing window openings were undersized and located too high to serve as legal egress exits. The foundation wall’s below-grade depth also made proper drainage a key consideration. Sure-Dry designed a complete solution that combined code compliance, safety, and long-term water management.

Sure-Dry’s certified technicians began by excavating to the correct foundation depth, carefully controlling soil stability and protecting nearby landscaping. They cut a clean opening in the concrete, installed a thermally insulated egress window, and constructed a heavy-duty well with a built-in ladder and integrated drain line connected to the sump system. The system was sealed and graded to maintain proper drainage away from the home. The finished result was a clean, professional installation that provided the homeowners with a safe, well-lit, and fully compliant basement environment.

In Berlin, a homeowner noticed their front walk and sections of the driveway had sunk over time, leaving toe-stubbing edges and gaps that funneled water toward the garage. After storms, puddles formed where slabs had settled, and winter only made the cracking worse.

Our crew recommended a two-step repair. First, we used PolyLevel®—a lightweight, high-density expanding foam—to stabilize the base soils, fill hidden voids, and precisely lift the slabs. We mapped low areas, drilled small (penny-size) ports, and monitored lift with levels to restore evenness and proper drainage away from the home. Next, we protected the repair by sealing joints and cracks with NexusPro®, which stays flexible through temperature swings and resists UV breakdown. Where needed, we set backer, applied NexusPro, and broadcast color-match sand so the joints blend in.

By the end of the day, the surfaces were smooth and the joints were sealed—improving safety, curb appeal, and long-term durability without the cost and disruption of full replacement.

In Berlin, a homeowner reached out after repeated rainstorms left damp edges along the basement floor and a noticeable musty smell. They’d moved boxes onto shelves and avoided using part of the space, especially worried that a power flicker might leave their old pump offline when they needed it most.

Our team proposed a two-part solution. First, we installed WaterGuard® along the interior perimeter to intercept groundwater right where it enters—at the wall–floor (cove) joint—so moisture doesn’t reach the surface. The WaterGuard channel carries water to the sump basin out of sight. Next, we upgraded the pumping system to UltraSump®, which adds high-capacity pumping, a sealed lid, alarm notification, and a dedicated battery backup so the system keeps working through outages and heavy flows.

With the new drainage and pumping in place, the basement remains clean and dry after storms, storage is protected, and the homeowner has confidence that even a power outage won’t compromise their home.

In Berlin, a homeowner reached out after noticing a widening horizontal crack and slight inward bowing along a basement wall. During wet spells, the wall deflected more, and small stair-step cracks began appearing near the corners. The family wanted a structural repair that didn’t require a full exterior excavation.

Our team recommended the GeoLock® Wall Anchor System. After surveying utilities and choosing anchor points beyond the active backfill zone, we cored small openings in the basement wall and drilled to the exterior. Galvanized earth anchors were set in stable soils, then connected to interior steel wall plates with high-strength rods. Once tightened, the anchors provided immediate stabilization against lateral pressure. A key benefit is adjustability: during scheduled service visits, the system can be incrementally tightened to help return the wall closer to plumb as soil conditions permit.

With GeoLock in place, the wall is stabilized, cracking is controlled, and the homeowner has long-term confidence—without the disruption of major excavation.
