Before & After Photos

Before

A homeowner in Two Rivers, WI was dealing with a wet basement where water was making its way inside along the foundation walls. Once water reaches the basement floor, it can create damp conditions, musty odors and concerns about what will happen during the next heavy rain or spring snowmelt.

Wisconsin's changing groundwater conditions can put significant pressure on a foundation. As rain and melting snow saturate the surrounding soil, water can find its way through cracks, joints and other vulnerable areas of the foundation. In this basement, the conditions required a system that could capture water coming through the walls and reliably remove it from the home.

After

Sure-Dry installed DryTrak® to collect water entering along the foundation walls. DryTrak is a waterproofing drainage system installed above the basement floor, making it especially useful in situations where traditional below-floor drainage installation isn't the best option.

As water enters, DryTrak captures it before it can spread across the basement floor and directs it toward the sump system.

The collected groundwater is then handled by a SuperSump®. The system collects incoming water and pumps it safely away from the foundation, providing the active water-removal component needed to keep the basement protected.

Together, DryTrak and SuperSump give incoming water a controlled path from the foundation wall to the sump and then safely away from the home.

With the waterproofing system installed, this Two Rivers homeowner now has a drier, better-protected basement and a dependable way to manage water during Wisconsin's heavy rains, snowmelt and changing groundwater conditions.

Their old sump pump was uncovered which made it super easy for water to accumulate around the base of the sump pump. Which is why we installed the TripleSafe Sump Pump. This sump pump is tightly sealed eliminating any chance of water or radon gas coming up. As well as, it has three powerful pumps to always guarantee these homeowners a dry basement!

Before:
A homeowner in Luxemburg was dealing with damp, musty basement walls and periodic seepage after storms. Efflorescence and odors crept into the living space, and they worried about reliability if the power went out during heavy rain.

After:
We installed the CleanSpace® wall system around the basement perimeter—sealing seams and mechanically fastening the liner to block vapor and channel wall moisture to the home’s drainage path. We also upgraded the pumping equipment to a TripleSafe® sump system with a primary pump, high-capacity secondary, and a battery-backup pump under a sealed lid with alarm.

Now the basement stays clean, dry, and ready for storage year-round—with peace of mind during outages.
