NEENAH, WI – December 05, 2025 – PRESSADVANTAGE –
ABT Foundation Solutions has undergone a change in ownership, with Dan Dillenberg and Mickey Stachurski taking the helm in 2024. This transition brings extensive experience in the basement and home improvement industries to the company, ensuring continued provision of foundation repair and waterproofing services to homeowners in Northeast Wisconsin. The new owners maintain the company’s focus on delivering permanent solutions for issues such as water damage and structural concerns.
The company provides a range of services designed to address foundation-related problems. These include foundation repair, polyurethane concrete slab repair and leveling, crawl space repair, installation of gutters and gutter guards, and egress windows. Additional products encompass basement flooring, dehumidifiers, and sump pumps. Basement waterproofing stands as a core offering, with systems aimed at preventing leaks, flooding, and associated damage. Interior waterproofing involves the Dry Right II system, which channels water through drain tiles to a sump pump without requiring exterior excavation. Exterior methods include placing drain tiles adjacent to footings, applying dampproofing tar to foundation walls, and using Platon wallboard for protection. Backfilling with stone or a clay cap, along with plastic or rubber membranes, completes the process, often finished with wood chips or decorative stone.
Homeowners benefit from these services in multiple ways. Waterproofing enhances structural integrity by blocking water entry into concrete foundations. It also prevents mold growth from accumulated moisture, which contributes to better indoor air quality. By avoiding water-related damage, the measures help preserve property value and protect personal belongings stored in basements. Furthermore, a dry basement allows for the creation of additional livable space, potentially increasing overall home square footage and market appeal.
The process begins with a complimentary inspection to evaluate specific issues, such as cracks in walls, water on floors, seepage through joints, dampness, staining, or efflorescence on surfaces. Experts assess the home’s construction type to recommend appropriate solutions. For interior concerns, the approach targets leaky cove joints or floor cracks by installing or repairing drain tiles that direct water to sump pumps. Exterior solutions address clogged window well drains, cracks on outer walls, or flooding in yards through downspout extensions and re-grading. The company employs certified staff who undergo weekly training, utilizing quality components without relying on subcontractors.
Under the new ownership, ABT Foundation Solutions upholds its established practices while leveraging the backgrounds of the new leaders. Mickey Stachurski entered the basement industry in 2008 as a helper and progressed to roles as foreman and project manager. Dan Dillenberg started in home improvement in 2014 as a project manager, drawing from prior involvement in family businesses, restaurants, retail, and management, starting from a young age. Their combined expertise supports the company’s mission to offer effective solutions using reliable products.
“Homeowners in Appleton face unique challenges with water intrusion due to local weather patterns and soil conditions,” said Mickey Stachurski, Owner of ABT Foundation Solutions. “Basement waterproofing in Appleton, WI requires tailored approaches that account for these factors, and the company stands ready to implement systems that provide lasting protection against moisture issues.”
The company completes between 800 and 1,200 jobs each year, emphasizing a positive customer experience through personalized repairs. Work typically commences within three weeks following an inspection, backed by a complete guarantee. ABT Foundation Solutions holds an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau, reflecting its dedication to quality equipment, experienced personnel, and customer service.
“Transitioning to new ownership allows ABT Foundation Solutions to build on its legacy while incorporating fresh perspectives from years in the field,” said Dan Dillenberg, Owner of ABT Foundation Solutions. “The focus remains on addressing foundation and waterproofing needs efficiently, helping residents maintain safe and dry homes.”
