Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Before:
A homeowner in Antigo, WI was dealing with water intrusion along a basement wall where groundwater pressure forced moisture through the cold joint. The existing sump pump struggled to keep up during heavy rain and spring thaw, allowing water to track across the slab. Inspection showed that seepage concentrated at one wall before spreading out, indicating a need for controlled drainage and an upgraded pump system.

After:
Sure-Dry installed a SuperSump® to provide reliable pumping capacity during peak moisture conditions. A WaterGuard® system was installed along the problem wall to capture seepage and direct it to the upgraded sump. A bleeder line was added to intercept groundwater entering through the wall and route it directly into the WaterGuard system.
With the new drainage path and sump upgrade, the homeowner now has a dry, controlled basement environment that performs consistently through Antigo’s wet seasons.

The homeowners here had a problem with keeping their crawl space clean and dry. The perfect solution was to install a sump pump to keep moisture flowing out of the area and then finish it off with the CleanSpace liner to ensure it stays dry forever!

Before:
A homeowner in Omro had recurring water around the sump, musty odors, and damp, unfinished basement walls. Winter made things worse with worries about the discharge line freezing and backing water into the home.

After:
We installed a TripleSafe® sump pump system (primary, secondary, and battery-backup pumps under a sealed lid with alarm), added IceGuard® fittings on the exterior discharge to prevent freeze-ups, and ran a buried discharge line to carry water well away from the foundation with a clean, low-profile finish. We also finished the foundation walls with BrightWall® panels to block vapor and create a bright, washable surface.

Now the basement stays dry, cleaner, and more reliable—through heavy storms and freezing Wisconsin winters.

Before our help, this Rosendale, WI homeowner faced frequent stress over their existing sump pump, which was struggling to keep their basement dry under heavy water pressure. You can observe the essence of this issue in the left image. We addressed this challenge efficiently by installing our advanced TripleSafe Sump Pump and WaterGuard system. As seen in the right photo, this not only bolstered their sump pump system with high-capacity water management—eliminating worries of overpressure or power failure—but also established a meticulous drainage solution. These sure proof mechanisms mean steadfast basement protection and lasting peace of mind for the home.

A sump pump can be an incredibly valuable resource in your home. When water gets into your basement, the sump pump is what protects you from a flood that could cause expensive property damage.  This home in Rosendale, WI did not have a sump system installed, causing water to pool in the basement when it found its way in from the wet soil surrounding the home's foundation.  

To protect this home in Rosendale from future water problems, Sure-Dry Basement Systems installed their SuperSump® Premier Pump System.  The SuperSump® Premier Pump System is engineered to help keep the basement dry and healthy for extended periods of time, even in times of heavy water intrusion. The SuperSump® includes a powerful Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement. The SuperSump® can also be installed with an optional UltraSump® Battery Backup Sump Pump, which can pump out 11,500 gallons or more on a single charge!

If you have had occasional water issues but not a severe flood, the SuperSump® may be the ideal option for your home. This complete system provides total protection, and like all of our sump pump systems works perfectly with our drainage systems.
