Before & After Photos

Before, this Greenleaf homeowner faced a concerning crawl space, worrying about potential future damage. As you can see in the before photo, the need for a robust solution was clear. Step in Sure-Dry—we installed our SmartJack system, which as highlighted in the after photo, dramatically revitalized the space. Beyond mere aesthetics, this upgrade ensures a sturdier foundation, safeguarding the home against the wear and tear of time. Thanks to this, the homeowner can now rest easy, knowing they're standing on solid ground.

Before:
A homeowner in Oconto Falls noticed a horizontal crack and sections of a basement wall bowing inward. During wet seasons the movement worsened, with stair-step cracking near corners—clear signs of lateral soil pressure threatening long-term stability.

After:
We installed the GeoLock® Wall Anchor System, connecting interior steel wall plates to galvanized earth anchors set in stable soils beyond the backfill zone. This provided immediate stabilization with minimal excavation at each anchor location and allows for periodic tightening to help straighten the wall over time.

The wall is now stabilized against further inward movement, and the homeowner has confidence in the long-term safety of their foundation.

In this Sobieski, WI project, the homeowner contacted us worried about a cracked, failing foundation and the risk of a possible wall collapse, as seen in the first photo. Sure-Dry confidently addressed this serious concern with our innovative Push Pier System. This technology permanently stabilizes the settling foundation by reaching deep to load-bearing soil or bedrock. As the after photo illustrates, the home's foundation is now restored, enhancing the property's value and ensuring lasting peace of mind. With this system, we secure your home's safety and offer durable protection.

In Sheboygan, WI, homeowners faced structural concerns with bowing foundation walls threatening their property's integrity. As you can see, wall instability is a common issue that can worsen if not promptly addressed. Our solution? The GeoLock Wall Anchor System. Our skilled technicians swiftly installed heavy-duty steel earth anchors to stabilize and correct the positioning of the walls. Notice in the after photo how straight and secure they now appear. This precise and reliable repair not only safeguards the home but reinstates peace of mind for the homeowners with trusted, proven solutions from Sure-Dry.

Before: Unstable Ground Threatens New Trail Construction

In Iron River, a new multi-mile boardwalk trail—part of the Apple Blossom Trail expansion project—was set to wind through a combination of wetlands, soft soils, and riverbed terrain. While the plans promised a scenic and accessible route through Michigan’s Northwoods, building a structure that could withstand the elements and shifting ground presented a serious challenge. Standard footings simply wouldn’t hold up.

After: Deep Foundation System Installed to Support the Future

Sure-Dry was proud to help bring the project to life by installing helical piers, a commercial-grade foundation system designed to anchor deeply into load-bearing soils. These piers provide lasting support for the elevated boardwalk sections that span the most unstable parts of the trail—including areas above wetlands and near the river’s edge.

The result is a solid, long-term solution that supports community development and environmental sustainability—helping to create a safe, scenic experience for residents and visitors alike.
