Before & After Photos

In the before photo, the crawl space in an Appleton, WI home was cold, wet, and unsuitable for needed storage and access to the sump pump. Our team at Sure-Dry installed the robust CleanSpace, enhanced with Drainage Matting for optimal water management, SilverGlo for superior insulation, the RimTight system to seal unwanted air leaks, and a reliable SuperSump pump. As seen in the after photo, the space is now dry and clean, allowing homeowners to use it confidently without the unpleasant surprises of moisture and cold.

A homeowner in Appleton, WI faced persistent wet basement issues, as shown in the first photo. This common problem can lead to significant damage if not addressed. Our expert team provided a solution by installing the WaterGuard® subfloor perimeter drainage system, which channels water away before it can cause harm. Coupled with the TripleSafe™ sump pump, we delivered a dependable, three-tier defense system. Notice in the after photo how the carefully integrated installations ensure the basement stays dry, making it suitable for storage and other uses. With Sure-Dry, enjoy long-lasting peace of mind.

Before: Cracked Walls & Water Every Time It Rained

In Appleton, this homeowner was dealing with cracking block foundation walls and water seepage that showed up during every heavy rain. The cracks were only getting worse, and the damp basement was starting to affect the space above. They knew it was time to take care of the problem before it turned into major structural damage.

After: Stabilized, Dry & Storm-Ready

Our team installed a full foundation and waterproofing system to permanently solve both the structural and water issues:

• GeoLock® Wall Anchors to stop inward movement and stabilize the cracking block walls

• WaterGuard® interior drainage system to capture and redirect groundwater

• A new sump pump system with battery backup to keep water out—even during power outages

Now the basement is secure, dry, and protected from future storms—and the homeowner no longer has to stress every time it rains.

Before:
A homeowner in Appleton, WI, wanted to install an egress window to transform their dark basement into a bright, livable space that met modern safety codes. The existing basement windows were small, inefficient, and provided no safe means of exit in case of emergency. The homeowner needed a solution that would improve light, ventilation, and safety while maintaining proper drainage and a clean appearance.

After:
Sure-Dry’s team excavated the exterior area and installed a complete egress window system, including a large, code-compliant window, a durable well, and a clear cover to keep out debris and moisture. The crew ensured proper grading and added drainage stone at the base of the well to direct water away from the foundation. The new installation provided abundant natural light and a reliable emergency exit, transforming the basement into a bright, functional space.

The homeowner was thrilled with the improvement, noting how the new window made the basement feel open, comfortable, and fully code-compliant.
