Sure-Dry Before & After Photos

Because it's built directly underneath your home, your crawl space plays a key role in your home's structural integrity. Crawl spaces bear this weight through the foundation walls and crawl space support columns.  The floor joists above the crawl space of this home in Edgar, WI were sagging due to failing support structures.  

To solve this issue, Sure-Dry Basement Systems installed their SmartJack® Crawl Space Stabilizer system.  The SmartJack® Crawl Space Stabilizer is an adjustable supplemental support system used for sagging crawl spaces.  It not only provides supplemental support to your failing structure -- it can also often lift failing floor joists or beams, restoring them to their original position.

An old, inefficient sump pump in Edgar, WI was replaced with a new TripleSafe Sump Pump System which provides three levels of protection including a battery back-up ensuring that these homeowners won't have to worry about water in their basement or a failing sump pump.

Nestled in Edgar, WI, stood a charming older home bogged down by basement water woes—leaky walls, a missing drain tile, and not a sump pump in sight. Notice in the 'before' photo the undeniable need for a solution. Enter our rapid-response team. We seamlessly integrated CleanSpace to block moisture, DryTrack for exceptional drainage, and SuperSump to keep things bone dry. As you can see in the 'after' photo, the basement is now a testament to dryness and durability, beautifully reflecting our commitment to restoring peace of mind with tailored craftsmanship and lasting protection.

Before the project, the homeowner in Edgar, WI was experiencing recurring water seepage along the cove joint where the basement floor meets the wall during heavy rains and spring snowmelt. Water tracked along the perimeter slab, leaving damp bands, efflorescence, and small puddles in low spots that made the space unsuitable for storage or future finishing. The existing sump pump setup was basic and unsupported by any continuous interior drainage, so hydrostatic pressure beneath the slab simply pushed groundwater to the path of least resistance at the wall-floor joint. Over time, the persistent moisture created a musty basement odor and raised concerns about long-term foundation and air quality issues typical of wet basement repair needs in Wisconsin.

After Sure-Dry completed the work, the Edgar, WI basement was protected by a WaterGuard® interior drainage system installed along the affected walls at the footing to intercept groundwater before it can reach the floor surface. The WaterGuard channel, set in a drainage stone bed and equipped with a wall flange to capture wall and cove seepage, was routed directly into a new SuperSump® system with a durable liner, airtight lid, and high-capacity pump designed for reliable sump pump installation in Wisconsin basements. Once the drainage and discharge connections were complete, the crew carefully re-poured concrete over the trench to restore a clean, finished slab edge while providing a long-term interior drainage system basement solution for this Marathon County home.
The homeowner now has a dry, healthier basement environment and confidence that this basement waterproofing system will keep their Edgar, WI home protected through future storms and snowmelt cycles.
