Gleason, WI's Dependable Contractor for Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair

In Gleason, a homeowner noticed persistent musty smells and cold floors above their crawl space. During wet weather, humidity spiked and condensation formed on joists and ducts. In winter, drafts at the rim joists made the first floor uncomfortable and drove up heating costs.

Our crew designed a comprehensive solution around four key components. First, we installed CleanSpace® to create a durable vapor barrier that separates the home from earth moisture. Next, we added SilverGlo® insulation on the crawl space walls to improve R-value and reflect radiant heat back into the space. We then sealed the perimeter where outside air sneaks in using RimTight™ at the rim joists. Finally, we set an UltraSump® in the low point of the crawl space to manage groundwater and give the homeowner reliable, automatic pumping protection.

With the system in place, the crawl space stays clean and dry, floors feel warmer, and the air in the living space smells fresher—delivering comfort, efficiency, and long-term protection for the home.

In Gleason, a homeowner noticed their driveway and front walkway had sunk in several spots. The uneven edges were becoming a trip hazard, and after rain, water pooled near the garage door instead of draining away. With Wisconsin’s freeze–thaw cycles, the issue was getting worse each season.

Our crew recommended PolyLevel®, a high-density expanding foam designed for lifting and stabilizing settled concrete. After mapping the low areas, we drilled small (penny-size) ports and injected PolyLevel beneath the slabs. As the foam expanded, we monitored lift with a laser level to restore evenness and proper drainage. Once complete, we patched the ports for a clean finish and confirmed the new slope would move water away from the foundation.

The result is a smooth, level surface that improves safety, looks better, and helps protect the home from water problems—without the disruption and weight of traditional mudjacking.

In Gleason, a homeowner was dealing with basement walls that were bowing inward due to years of soil pressure around the foundation. Cracks began forming, and the walls showed visible signs of stress, leaving the family worried about the future stability of their home.

To correct the issue, our crew installed the PowerBrace™ Wall Repair System. These zinc-coated steel I-beams are securely anchored at the floor and ceiling, providing immediate stabilization. Unlike temporary fixes, PowerBrace has the unique ability to be tightened over time, which can help straighten the walls back toward their original position.

With the system in place, the homeowner no longer has to worry about worsening cracks or collapsing walls. Their foundation is secure, and they now have confidence knowing their home is protected for the future.

In Gleason, a homeowner was struggling with water seeping into their basement whenever it rained heavily. Over time, this caused puddles to form along the floor and created a persistent musty smell that made the space unusable. Their existing sump pump wasn’t strong enough to keep up, and with Wisconsin winters, they were also worried about frozen discharge lines pushing water back toward the foundation.

To give them a permanent solution, our crew installed a WaterGuard® interior drainage system to capture water at the foundation’s edge and direct it safely to a new SuperSump® sump pump system. For added protection, we installed IceGuard® discharge line fittings to prevent backups during freezing temperatures, along with a Buried Discharge Line that carries water far away from the home while keeping the yard looking neat.

Now, the homeowner has a basement that stays dry and protected through every season. They no longer worry about storms, power outages, or winter freeze-ups — just the peace of mind that their home is safe.
