Before & After Photos

In this basement in New Franken, WI water had managed to seep it's way through the concrete pours and soak around the perimeter of the basement. 

We installed the WaterGuard System, which will collect water that seeps in and will drain it to the sump pump. With its tiny openings at the top of the guard, water will no longer be able to sit on this basement floor ever again.

Before:
The basement took on water along multiple wall–floor joints after rain and during thaws. Puddles, musty odors, and efflorescence were common, and humidity made storage difficult year-round.

After:
We installed the WaterGuard® interior drainage system along the leaking perimeter to intercept seepage at its source and carry it to a new SuperSump® with an airtight lid, high-reliability pump, and clean finish. The foundation walls were lined with CleanSpace® vapor barrier so any wall moisture is directed into WaterGuard instead of onto the floor. To control airborne moisture, a SaniDry™ dehumidifier was added and set to maintain healthy RH, draining automatically.

The basement is now dry, brighter, and ready for reliable use—even during heavy rains.

Before:
The crawl space had exposed soil, musty odors, and seasonal puddling. Leaky rim joists let in cold, humid air, leaving floors above chilly and adding moisture to the space. Without a dedicated drainage or humidity system, the area felt damp year-round.

After:
We encapsulated the crawl space with CleanSpace®—sealed across the floor and up the walls with tight, taped seams and mechanical fastening. Around the perimeter, joints and penetrations were sealed, and vents were closed to block outside air. We air-sealed and insulated the rim with RimTight™ to stop drafts and reduce condensation. For water management, we installed a SuperSump® with an airtight lid and check valve. Finally, a Sedona dehumidifier was added to maintain healthy relative humidity and drain automatically.

The result is a dry, clean, and tighter crawl space that improves comfort and air quality in the home above.

Before
A homeowner in New Franken, WI was experiencing water intrusion and elevated moisture levels in the basement. Water entering around the foundation perimeter left the basement vulnerable to damp conditions, musty odors, and increased humidity, especially during periods of heavy rain and snowmelt common throughout Northeast Wisconsin. The homeowner needed a basement waterproofing solution that could manage groundwater at the foundation while also controlling moisture in the basement air.
After
Sure-Dry installed a complete basement waterproofing system featuring the WaterGuard® Interior Drainage System to capture water entering around the foundation perimeter and direct it toward the SuperSump® Sump Pump System for reliable removal from the basement. A SaniDry™ Dehumidification System was also installed to reduce excess humidity and help maintain a drier, more comfortable environment. Together, these systems address both liquid water and moisture in the air, giving the homeowner a comprehensive wet basement repair solution and greater peace of mind during Wisconsin's wettest seasons.
