Before & After Photos

From damp to dry, our transformation in Brantwood, WI, is hard to miss! The "before" photo shows a crawlspace plagued by endless moisture, fostering unwanted mold - a homeowner's concern for health and home integrity. However, switch your gaze to the "after" photo, and witness our solution at work: the CleanSpace and SaniDry Sedona in action. These products have not only reclaimed this crawlspace, giving it a dry and healthy overhaul but have also promised peace of mind and reliability, aligning perfectly with our mission to resolve home issues effectively and provide exceptional customer experiences.

Before:
A homeowner in Marathon was seeing water along the wall–floor (cove) joint after storms. Musty odors lingered, the old pump felt unreliable during power flickers, and the above-grade discharge line risked freezing and backing water into the basement.

After:
We installed WaterGuard® interior perimeter drainage to capture seepage at the cove joint and route it to a new UltraSump® system with a sealed lid, alarm, and battery backup for outages. Outside, we added IceGuard® freeze-protection fittings and trenched a buried discharge line to carry water safely away from the foundation with a clean, low-profile finish.

Now the basement stays dry and usable year-round with dependable pumping and freeze-resistant discharge.

Before:
A homeowner in Marathon had a damp, musty crawl space with exposed soil and porous foundation walls. Humidity crept into the living space and the floors above felt chilly—especially in winter.

After:
We installed CleanSpace® across the crawl space floor and up the walls (wrapping piers and sealing all seams) to create a continuous vapor barrier, then added SilverGlo® rigid foam insulation on the walls for lasting thermal performance.

The crawl space is now dry, sealed, and insulated—improving comfort, reducing odors, and helping the home maintain healthy humidity year-round.

Before: Damp, Dirty, and Inefficient

In Montello, WI, a homeowner contacted Sure-Dry after discovering that their crawl space was damp, musty, and visibly moldy. Cold floors in the winter and high humidity levels throughout the year were also making the home uncomfortable and energy-inefficient.

The crawl space had exposed soil, falling insulation, and air leaks around the rim joists—creating the perfect environment for moisture buildup, wood rot, and poor indoor air quality.

After: A Clean, Dry, and Energy-Efficient Crawl Space

Sure-Dry designed and installed a complete crawl space encapsulation and dehumidification system that included:

• CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier: A durable, bright white liner installed along the floor and walls to seal out ground moisture and create a clean, usable space.

• RimTight™ Spray Foam Insulation: Applied to rim joists and sill plates to stop air leakage and heat loss.

• SaniDry™ Sedona Dehumidifier: Installed to maintain optimal humidity levels year-round and prevent mold growth.

The transformation was immediate. The space is now dry, mold-resistant, energy-efficient, and significantly healthier for the entire home above.

Moisture getting into this crawl space in Plainfield, WI was creating mold and starting to jeopardize the structural integrity of the wood structures throughout the crawl space.  

To solve these homeowners' crawl space problems, Sure-Dry Basement Systems installed their CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier System.

This durable, bright white crawl space liner installs on the walls and floors, preventing water vapor and humidity from passing through. By keeping your crawl space dry, you protect your structure and insulation from mold and rot.

With a 25-year warranty against rips and tears, this durable 20-mil poly-reinforced crawl space liner converts your crawl space into a usable storage area. And with its mold-resistant additive "UltraFresh", CleanSpace will never support mildew or mold growth on its surface.
