Before
This West Bend, WI home had a crawl space constructed with approximately five courses of concrete block and a poured concrete floor. Unlike many crawl spaces with exposed dirt floors, the structure itself was already in good condition and didn't require extensive structural repairs or a full floor encapsulation.
What it did need was a thorough cleaning and a reliable waterproofing and moisture-control system. Even with a concrete floor, moisture can enter through block foundation walls, increase humidity, and create damp conditions beneath the home.
After
After cleaning the crawl space, Sure-Dry installed CleanSpace® along the block walls to provide a clean, durable barrier against moisture entering through the foundation.
A SuperSump® system with battery backup was installed to collect and remove water while providing additional protection if the power goes out.
To control humidity, Sure-Dry added a SaniDry™ dehumidification system to help maintain a drier environment and reduce excess moisture in the air.
Instead of installing products the crawl space didn't need, the solution was designed around the home's existing concrete floor and block construction, creating a cleaner, drier, and better-protected space.

Before
A homeowner in West Bend, WI experienced water intrusion in a finished basement, causing enough damage that the finished materials had to be torn out and the space essentially started over. Before rebuilding, the homeowners wanted to address the source of the water problem and protect their investment from another damaging basement leak.
After
Sure-Dry installed a complete interior basement waterproofing system featuring WaterGuard around the basement perimeter. WaterGuard is designed to capture water entering along the foundation walls and wall-floor joint and direct it safely to the sump system.
A SuperSump system with battery backup was installed to collect and pump the water away from the home. The battery backup provides an additional layer of protection if the primary pump cannot operate during a power outage.
With the waterproofing system in place, these West Bend homeowners can move forward with rebuilding their finished basement knowing the underlying water problem has been addressed.

Before
An older home in West Bend, WI had a persistent water problem concentrated in one corner of the basement. Moisture entering through the aging foundation was leaving this section wet and creating an area the homeowners wanted to get under control before the problem became worse.
After
Sure-Dry installed a SuperSump system to collect incoming water and reliably pump it away from the home.
A small section of CleanSpace was installed on the foundation wall immediately next to the SuperSump. CleanSpace provides a durable moisture barrier and helps direct water entering through the wall down toward the waterproofing system instead of allowing it onto the basement floor.
This targeted waterproofing solution addressed the problem area while helping keep this older West Bend basement drier and better protected.

The crawl space of this home in Three Lakes, WI had several issues. Moisture getting into the crawl space was creating mold, causing insulation to "drip", damaging the wood floor joists and creating a foul smell throughout the home. Because the crawl space wasn't properly sealed, these homeowners were also losing a lot of heat through the crawl space walls.
To fix the moisture issues of this crawl space, Sure-Dry Basement Systems installed their CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier System. The CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier System is a durable, bright white crawl space liner that 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.
To make the crawl space more energy efficient, Sure-Dry installed their SilverGlo™ Crawl Space Wall Insulation panels. In addition to resisting heat conduction, SilverGlo™ boasts a radiant barrier, which reflects heat back into your crawl space for ultimate energy savings. SilverGlo™ crawl space insulation can also be installed on the perimeter of your floor framing system (rim joist) for maximum energy savings.
