Menominee, MI's Dependable Contractor for Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair

This homeowner in Menominee, MI relied on their basement for extensive storage, but recurring water intrusion was putting valuable belongings at risk every time heavy rain or spring snowmelt occurred. Because the basement was filled with stored items, our Design Specialist recommended a waterproofing solution that would provide long-term protection while minimizing disruption during installation. After identifying hydrostatic pressure forcing groundwater into the basement at the cove joint, our team installed the DryTrak Baseboard Drain Pipe System to intercept water as it entered and channel it directly into the TripleSafe Sump Pump System. DryTrak is especially effective in finished or heavily utilized basements because it can be installed with less disruption than traditional interior drainage systems. The TripleSafe system then automatically pumps collected water safely away from the foundation while providing backup protection if the primary pump fails or electrical power is lost. The completed installation gives the homeowner dependable, year-round basement waterproofing and peace of mind knowing their stored possessions are better protected from future water damage.

When this homeowner in Menominee, MI became tired of cleaning up water after storms, they contacted Sure-Dry for a permanent basement waterproofing solution. Our inspection confirmed groundwater was entering where the basement floor met the foundation walls due to hydrostatic pressure surrounding the home. Based on the findings, our Design Specialist recommended the DryTrak Baseboard Drain Pipe System paired with a SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System. DryTrak was installed along the interior perimeter to capture water without extensive disruption to the existing basement floor, making it an excellent solution in situations where a traditional interior drainage system may not be practical. Water is then directed into the SuperSump, which automatically removes it away from the foundation before it can accumulate inside the basement. The completed system provides the homeowner with a cleaner, drier basement and reliable, long-term protection against future water intrusion.

This homeowner in Menominee, MI noticed their home addition continuing to settle, resulting in cracks, uneven floors, and growing concern about the structural integrity of the foundation. Our Design Specialist performed a detailed inspection that included measuring foundation elevations and evaluating the underlying soil conditions. The findings confirmed that the supporting soils beneath the addition were no longer capable of carrying the foundation's load. To permanently address the problem, our crew installed Push Pier Foundation Systems beneath the affected foundation. Each engineered steel pier was hydraulically driven through unstable soils until reaching competent bearing strata, where load-transfer testing verified the required capacity. The foundation was then permanently stabilized and carefully lifted where feasible to help reduce the effects of settlement. The completed project restored structural stability to the addition and provided the homeowner with a proven foundation repair solution built for long-term performance.

This homeowner in Menominee, MI contacted Sure-Dry after noticing floors that felt soft, uneven, and increasingly sagged in several areas of the home. Our inspection of the crawl space revealed failing support posts and structural settlement that had allowed portions of the floor system to deflect over time. After documenting the amount of floor movement, our Design Specialist recommended reinforcing the structure with the SmartJack Structural Support System. Our crew installed engineered steel support bases and galvanized SmartJack columns beneath the affected beams and floor joists, carefully adjusting each support to stabilize the structure and reduce floor deflection where possible. Unlike temporary wood posts, SmartJack systems are designed to provide permanent structural support while resisting the effects of moisture commonly found in crawl spaces. The completed installation restored confidence in the home's structural integrity and provided the homeowner with a dependable, long-term crawl space repair solution.

This homeowner in Menominee noticed their front concrete porch had settled, creating an uneven entrance that was becoming both a safety concern and an eyesore. During our inspection, we found that soil settlement beneath the porch had created voids, allowing the concrete to sink over time. Rather than removing and replacing the porch, our Design Specialist recommended restoring it with PolyLevel High-Density Concrete Lifting Foam. Small injection ports were drilled into the slab, allowing the expanding foam to fill the hidden voids, stabilize the supporting soils, and accurately lift the porch back into position. Compared to traditional mudjacking, PolyLevel adds very little weight to the soil, is waterproof, minimally invasive, and cures in approximately 15 minutes, making it an excellent choice for slab jacking, concrete step repair, and concrete porch restoration. The completed project provided the homeowner with a safer entrance while extending the life of their existing concrete.

Recently, we had the pleasure of visiting a beautiful home in Menominee, MI, where the homeowners were grappling with a rather typical issue that's unfortunately all too common in the area. They reached out to us at Sure-Dry with concerns about their sinking concrete by the stoop, an issue that made every shovel hit during winter feel like a strike against their own comfort and home's value. They were searching for a lasting fix, not just a band-aid solution. Our mission? To not just meet their expectations, but exceed them, providing a solution that's both remarkable and enduring. Following their initial contact with our Customer Care team, a visit was promptly arranged with one of our skilled System Design Specialists, Kelly, who conducted a thorough inspection. Confirming that uneven concrete was indeed making life harder than necessary, we recommended a customized blend of our reliable products: PolyLevel and NexusPro. PolyLevel, a state-of-the-art foam, was injected beneath the concrete to level it out without the need for any disruptive replacement. Meanwhile, NexusPro came in as a sealant solution, preventing future water damage and ensuring the longevity of the repair. Indeed, these products were the perfect duo to tackle the problem. The big day arrived, and our production team, lead by Sabin, equipped with expertise and proactive smiles, went to work. Their precision and attention to detail transformed what was initially an area of discomfort for the homeowners into a safe, level space connecting to their stoop with unimposing smoothness. At day's end, when our team packed to leave, the stoop no longer posed a tripping danger nor did shoveling snow feel like a daunting task.

Recently, a homeowner from Menominee, MI, reached out to us at Sure-Dry, concerned about the worsening appearance of their concrete. The uneven slabs made the entrance to their home look neglected and posed a tripping hazard for visitors. Understanding the importance of the first impression a house makes, they wanted a solution that was not only effective but also lasting and aesthetically pleasing. Our customer care team promptly scheduled a home inspection where a System Design Specialist, Allan, from our Sales Team assessed the situation. After a thorough inspection, we identified that the soil underneath the concrete had settled, leading to the uneven slabs. We proposed a combination of our PolyLevel, NexusPro, and DecoShield products to not only lift and level the concrete but also seal the joints and protect the surface against further wear and tear. Once the homeowner agreed with our recommendation, our production team got to work. We first applied our PolyLevel solution, an advanced polyurethane foam, injected beneath the slabs to raise them to their original level. This process was not just efficient but minimally invasive, ensuring the integrity of the landscaped areas around the walkway was preserved. Next, we applied NexusPro, a sealant that filled in the cracks and joints, preventing water infiltration, which is often the root cause of soil settlement beneath concrete slabs. Finally, we coated the walkway with DecoShield, a decorative, durable surface sealer that enhanced the freshly leveled walkway's appearance, giving it a renewed look and more durable finish. The transformation was immediate and remarkable. As we cleaned up and showcased the outcomes to the homeowner, their relief and satisfaction were palpable. Making their walkway look inviting again is what we do at Sure-Dry!
