Before & After Photos

In Green Lake, WI, this homeowner was struggling with a moist and unusable crawl space. The before photo illustrates the damp, mold-prone area they faced. To provide a solution, we installed the robust CleanSpace system to encapsulate the space, elevating moisture protection. With SmartJack systems, we reinforced and stabilized the floor joists. The installation of SilverGlo insulation enhanced energy efficiency and dryness, while the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier effectively managed humidity levels. As the after photo reveals, the transformation to a clean, dry, and usable space is both practical and effective.

In Green Lake, WI, a homeowner faced basement troubles after their sump pump cracked, resulting in constant water concerns. As you can see in the before photo, prior solutions simply couldn't keep up. We addressed this with our trusted TripleSafe Sump Pump system, ensuring robust flood protection under any condition, even during power outages. In the after photo, notice the dry and revitalized space. Complementing this, the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was installed to tackle humidity, stopping mold growth and mustiness, ensuring a reliable, worry-free basement environment.

This crawl space was suffering from severe water, moisture and foul-smelling odors issues, which was effective in the home above. To remedy these issues, we cleaned up the extra dirt and debris and then installed a combination of CleanSpace Vapor Barrier and Drainage Matting to collect any water and safely and effectively carry it back outside. These updates will not only keep the crawl space cleaner and drier but will also make the floors above it much more comfortable.

Before
In Waupaca, WI, the homeowner wanted to finish the basement into a safe and livable space but had only small, non-compliant windows that offered no emergency escape route or natural light. The foundation wall suitable for installation was partially below grade with dense soil conditions, requiring careful excavation and drainage planning to prevent future water issues. During the inspection, Sure-Dry’s System Design Specialist evaluated the structure and confirmed that a full egress window installation was necessary to meet Wisconsin building code and ensure basement safety.

After
Sure-Dry’s certified crew excavated the area outside the foundation and used precision-cutting methods to create a clean opening for the new egress system. A durable, insulated egress window was installed along with a reinforced, rust-resistant window well featuring proper drainage tied into the home’s waterproofing system. After backfilling and restoring the exterior grade, the new window provided both a compliant emergency exit and significantly more daylight and ventilation.
The homeowner was pleased to have a safe, code-approved basement that now feels open, bright, and ready for finishing.

Solving Water Leaks and Musty Odors Every Time It Rains

Before: Wet Basement, Musty Smells, and No Peace of Mind

Every time it rained in Harshaw, this homeowner braced for water. The basement would get damp, musty odors filled the air, and their existing sump pump just couldn’t keep up with the groundwater coming in. The homeowner had dealt with it long enough—and wanted a real fix before things got worse.

After: Dual Sump Pump System and Interior Drainage Keep Basement Dry

To take full control of the moisture issues, our team installed a complete WaterGuard® interior drainage system, a brand-new SuperSump® Plus system, and tied it in with the home’s existing sump pump for extra protection. We also installed an IceGuard® discharge line system to prevent freezing or backups in winter.

Now, the basement stays dry, the air is fresh, and the homeowner has peace of mind—rain or shine.
