Sure-Dry serving Combined Locks, WI

During inspection, we mapped settlement across the driveway and front walk, identifying multiple voids under the panels near the garage apron and entry steps. The crew drilled small ⅜-inch injection ports and introduced PolyLevel® foam in controlled lifts to reestablish proper slab alignment and eliminate tripping points.

Once the lift was complete, technicians cleaned and prepared all joints before applying NexusPro® joint sealant. The material bonded tightly to the concrete and remains UV-resistant, ensuring a watertight seal that moves naturally with seasonal changes. The project provided a fast, noninvasive solution—leveling and sealing the concrete surfaces in a single day with minimal disruption.

During inspection, we identified clear water intrusion paths along the wall-floor joint and confirmed the sump’s limited performance during heavy inflow. The crew removed a narrow section of concrete around the perimeter and installed WaterGuard®, a sub-floor drainage system engineered to capture groundwater and direct it to the new TripleSafe® sump basin.

The TripleSafe system includes three pumps: a primary pump for everyday protection, a secondary pump for higher water volumes, and a battery-powered backup pump for outages—ensuring continuous operation in all conditions. To complete the system, an IceGuard® fitting was installed at the exterior discharge line to prevent freezing and backflow. Together, these components provide full-perimeter water control and dependable basement protection for the Combined Locks home.

During inspection, we documented wall deflection across three foundation Walls and completed utility locates to prepare for exterior work. With open yard space along two walls, GeoLock® Wall Anchors were chosen for those areas to maximize lateral resistance. Small exterior pits were excavated, and anchors were driven into undisturbed soil before tensioning the interior wall plates to deliver immediate stability.

On the sides with no exterior access, the crew installed PowerBrace™ beams, anchored to the slab and secured to the floor joists with adjustable top brackets. This hybrid design allowed both systems to perform where each was most effective. The result: comprehensive stabilization with minimal disruption, ensuring the foundation’s long-term safety and the homeowner’s confidence in the structure’s future.
