In South Range, WI, we tackled a foundation concern where ongoing structural issues threatened the integrity and future renovations of a beloved barn. As you can see in the before photo, years of leakage and neglect had weakened the foundation, risking major structural damage. Our solution, clearly depicted in the after photo, involved installing our trusted Helical Pier system. This innovative approach not only stabilized the foundation, safeguarding against future issues, but also set the stage for the homeowner's plans to re-side the barn. Through our methodical intervention, we've ensured that this structure stands strong for years to come, fulfilling our mission to deliver a lasting resolution with a remarkable customer experience.
In these before-and-after snapshots from South Range, WI, witness a remarkable transformation. The homeowner faced a dual challenge: concerning foundation issues and troubling basement flooding—issues that needed immediate attention to ensure the home's stability and peace of mind, especially before handing the keys over to a family member. The visible signs of caving walls and water intrusion, as seen in the ‘before’ photo, demanded an urgent and reliable solution. Our expertise led us to implement a comprehensive approach, combining the PowerBrace™, GeoLock™ Wall Anchor, and GeoLock™ Channel Anchor to stabilize the foundation. Additionally, to tackle the flooding, we installed the WaterGuard® and CleanSpace® systems, followed by the robust protection of our UltraSump™ System. As seen in the ‘after’ photo, the structure’s integrity has been fully restored, with the basement transformed into a secure, dry space. This is more than just an aesthetic improvement—it's a testament to our commitment to providing lasting, reliable solutions, ensuring a safe foundation for family memories to be securely built upon for years to come.

Design Specialist, Hunter Riley went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. Hunter performed an analysis of where heat was escaping from the home and concluded that the crawl space was the problematic area. The solution for the heat loss was to apply Spray Foam along the perimeter walls and the rim joists. Foreman Jason Foster and his production team successfully applied the Spray Foam in the crawl space.

This solution is non-invasive and ideal for quickly stabilizing bowing and leaning walls.
