Before:
In Plover, WI, a homeowner noticed bowing and horizontal cracking along multiple basement walls. Portage County’s clay-rich, moisture-retentive soils were exerting significant lateral pressure, causing inward movement around the entire perimeter of the basement. Symptoms included stepped cracking, widening mortar joints, and walls deflecting inward more noticeably during wet periods—a clear indication of soil expansion and seasonal freeze–thaw stress pushing against the foundation.
After:
Sure-Dry installed GeoLock® Wall Anchors around the entire basement to stabilize each affected wall section. Anchor rods were advanced into undisturbed soils away from the pressure zone, and every anchor was torque-verified to ensure proper soil engagement before final tensioning. This configuration provides full-perimeter stabilization with the ability for gradual corrective tightening over time.
The basement is now structurally secure, protected against continued inward movement, and ready to withstand Central Wisconsin’s seasonal soil cycles.
In their Plover, WI home, this homeowner faced a challenge with unstable, failing walls—a troubling issue that can affect both safety and property value. We understood their concerns and stepped in with our trusted GeoLock Wall Anchor System. As seen in the after photo, these GeoLock Anchors provide a steadfast solution, embedding steel anchors in stable soil to secure and stabilize the walls. Our approach not only restores structural integrity but also nurtures peace of mind. There's power in knowing that your home's foundation is once again secure.

After noticing cracks in the bricks around their home, they decided to call the experts at Sure-Dry to have a look at their foundation.
Once our team arrived at their home, we knew what the problem was. The soil beneath the home wasn't strong enough to support the weight of the home so it began to sink. To fix this problem, we installed our Helical Piers which are dug down deep into the Earth and rest on hard, compacted soil.
These homeowners couldn't be happier knowing that their home is safe from any further foundation issues.
Before:
A homeowner in Stevens Point, WI, wanted to transform their basement into a livable space but was limited by small, noncompliant windows that didn’t meet egress safety standards. The lack of proper light and ventilation made the basement feel dark and closed-in, and there was no accessible emergency exit. The homeowner sought a reliable solution that would enhance safety while making the space brighter and more functional.
After:
Sure-Dry’s crew installed a new egress window system, complete with a sturdy window well, clear cover, and proper drainage to prevent water buildup. The larger window not only met local safety codes for emergency egress but also dramatically increased natural light and airflow in the basement. The project was completed efficiently, with attention to proper sealing and finish detail to ensure long-term durability and performance.
The homeowner was delighted with the added light, comfort, and safety — turning their basement into a bright, welcoming extension of their home.
