Before:
A homeowner in Port Washington, WI was dealing with settlement in the concrete patio near their entrance and along the garage apron. Seasonal freeze–thaw cycles and lake-influenced moisture had caused several slabs to sink and shift, creating uneven surfaces, trip hazards, and poor drainage toward the home. Open joints and cracks were allowing water to wash out soils beneath the concrete, worsening the settlement over time.
After:
Sure-Dry lifted the sunken patio and garage apron slabs using PolyLevel® to restore proper height and eliminate trip hazards. After lifting, joints and cracks were sealed with NexusPro®, preventing water infiltration and protecting the slabs from future soil erosion.
The patio and garage apron are now level, stabilized, and fully sealed for long-term durability.
Notice the signs of water damage evident in the "before" photo from this Mountain, WI basement. This homeowner had periodic water issues, threatening their basement's safety and utility. Sure-Dry installed our TripleSafe™ Sump Pump and WaterGuard® systems to provide the necessary protection. In the "after" photo, see how the once-damp space now showcases a dry, secure basement, ready for any use! Our effective TripleSafe system and WaterGuard perimeter drainage ensure peace of mind with reliable moisture management, safeguarding this home's foundation today and in the future.
In Mountain, WI, this homeowner faced challenges with an unusable crawl space that emitted a damp, musty smell, potentially affecting living areas above. In the before photo, note the moisture issues characteristic of vented, unsealed spaces. Our solution was to expertly encapsulate the space using CleanSpace, providing a dry, clean, and mold-resistant environment. Additionally, RimTight was installed to insulate and seal the rim joists, preventing unconditioned air infiltration. As seen in the after photo, these industry-leading products transformed the crawl space into a protected, fresh area that enhances both value and comfort.
Building codes require that finished basement living areas have an emergency egress - an egress window large enough to allow safe exit out of the space in case of an emergency. A large window well with a step in it must also be used outside the egress window.
Here at Sure-Dry Basement Systems, we are certified installers of egress window wells. In addition to providing a safe exit, our egress windows allow more natural light and fresh air into the basement to make the space feel larger and more inviting.
This is an example of an egress window we installed in Belgium, WI.
