Before & After Photos

Before:
Built in 1897 and originally operating as Green Bay’s first grocery store, this historic property was constructed with a traditional rock foundation that had begun allowing moisture through gaps between the stones. Seasonal snowmelt and heavy rainfall in Northeast Wisconsin created seepage at the floor-wall joint, contributing to musty odors and damp conditions commonly found in older stone foundations across Brown County.

After:
To preserve the home’s historical character while resolving the moisture problem, the crew installed a WaterGuard® interior drainage system along the base of the rock walls to collect seepage discreetly and prevent water from reaching the basement floor. The stone surfaces were lined with CleanSpace® vapor barrier to isolate moisture and create a clean, controlled wall system suitable for aging masonry. A TripleSafe® sump pump system was added for reliable, triple-redundant pumping performance ideal for Wisconsin’s fluctuating groundwater conditions.
The homeowners now have a dry, protected basement that maintains the integrity and legacy of one of Green Bay’s earliest commercial buildings.

Before:
A homeowner in Green Bay, WI, wanted to install two egress windows in their basement to meet safety code requirements and add more natural light to the space. The existing basement windows were small, outdated, and did not provide a safe emergency exit. With plans to convert the basement into living space, the homeowner wanted a durable, code-compliant solution that would enhance both safety and comfort while improving the home’s overall value.

After:
Sure-Dry’s team excavated two areas outside the foundation and installed dual egress window systems, each featuring a large, code-compliant window, a durable window well, and a clear cover to prevent debris and water intrusion. Drainage stone was placed at the base of each well to ensure proper water flow and long-term protection for the foundation. The new windows significantly increased natural light, improved ventilation, and provided two safe, accessible emergency exits that meet all building code standards.

The homeowner was thrilled with the transformation, noting how much brighter, safer, and more inviting the basement now feels — and with confidence knowing the space is fully compliant for everyday use.
