Before: Old, Drafty, and Inefficient Windows

In Green Bay, this homeowner was dealing with old wooden-framed basement windows that were letting in drafts, moisture, and bugs—not to mention dragging down energy efficiency. The windows were hard to open, rusty, and starting to show signs of long-term wear.

They wanted something that looked better, sealed tighter, and would actually last.

After: Clean, Bright & Maintenance-Free

We replaced the outdated windows with EverLast™ basement windows, which are made from vinyl frames and double-pane glass for long-lasting durability and energy efficiency. These windows don’t rot, rust, or need painting—and they instantly improved the look and comfort of the basement.

Now the space is brighter, better sealed, and completely maintenance-free.

Before
In Sturgeon Bay, WI, the homeowner wanted to make their basement safer and more functional but faced a challenge with small, outdated windows that did not meet current egress code. The foundation walls were poured concrete, and the planned installation area was located on a sloped section of the yard where drainage and soil stability required careful management. During inspection, Sure-Dry’s System Design Specialist determined that an egress window installation would not only bring the basement into code compliance but also improve lighting, ventilation, and usability of the lower level.

After
Sure-Dry’s certified crew excavated the area along the foundation, stabilizing the slope to prevent soil movement during the dig. A clean, code-sized opening was cut into the concrete wall, and an energy-efficient egress window was installed with a reinforced, corrosion-resistant window well featuring a built-in ladder and integrated drain line. The system was sealed and tied into the existing waterproofing to ensure moisture protection, then backfilled and graded for a clean finish.
The homeowner gained a bright, safe, and fully code-compliant basement space that’s now ready for finishing.

Before
A homeowner in Sturgeon Bay, WI contacted Sure-Dry after dealing with persistent moisture issues in their crawl space along with concerns about sagging floors above. The space had exposed earth, high humidity, and signs of damp air moving into the home—common issues that lead homeowners to search for crawl space repair or crawl space repair contractor solutions. In Door County, seasonal moisture and fluctuating temperatures often contribute to musty odors and structural concerns. During inspection, it was also found that weakened floor supports were contributing to uneven floors inside the home, indicating both moisture and structural problems needed to be addressed.

After
To correct these issues, Sure-Dry installed the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System to fully encapsulate the crawl space and isolate it from ground moisture. The SuperSump Sump Pump System was added to actively manage and discharge water, providing reliable drainage. In addition, the team installed the SmartJack Structural Support System to stabilize and lift the sagging floor system above, restoring proper support and helping correct the uneven surfaces inside the home.
The result is a clean, dry crawl space with improved structural integrity and long-term protection against moisture and settlement issues.

The homeowner now has a healthier crawl space and a more stable living space above, with lasting peace of mind.

Before: A homeowner in Sturgeon Bay, WI was experiencing ongoing moisture and energy-efficiency concerns in their crawl space, including damp conditions, cold floors above the crawl space, and signs of humidity buildup beneath the home. Over time, exposed crawl space surfaces and outside air intrusion had started impacting the overall condition of the area. Crawl space issues like these are common throughout Door County and Wisconsin due to fluctuating moisture levels, seasonal humidity, and cold winter temperatures.
After: Our Sure-Dry team transformed the crawl space by installing the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System to help isolate the home from ground moisture, along with SilverGlo Crawl Space Insulation Panels to improve insulation along the crawl space walls. We also installed RimTight insulation around the rim joist area to help reduce outside air infiltration and completed the system with a SuperSump Sump Pump System to help manage water intrusion beneath the home. Once completed, the crawl space had a cleaner, drier, and more energy-efficient environment for the homeowner.
