Before the project, the homeowner in Vesper, WI was dealing with ongoing water intrusion along several basement walls whenever rain or seasonal snowmelt increased groundwater pressure. Water appeared at the cove joint where the slab meets the wall on some runs and tracked down the face of the foundation on others, leaving damp bands, minor floor puddling, and efflorescence. The existing sump pit was shallow and poorly covered, and there was no continuous interior drainage system to manage hydrostatic pressure around the footing. Over time, the musty odor and visible moisture raised concerns about air quality, potential damage to stored belongings, and the long-term health of the foundation in this Wood County home.
After Sure-Dry completed the work, the basement was protected by a combined WaterGuard® and DryTrak® interior drainage solution, all directed into a new SuperSump® system. WaterGuard was installed along the accessible slab edges at the footing to intercept groundwater before it reached the floor surface, while DryTrak was applied at sections where jackhammering the slab was not practical, allowing wall and cove seepage to be collected along the interior face of the wall. Both drainage systems were tied into a properly sized SuperSump basin with an airtight lid, durable liner, and high-capacity pump designed for reliable sump pump installation in Wisconsin basements, with the discharge routed safely away from the foundation.
The homeowner now has a clean, dry, and healthier basement environment, along with confidence that this interior drainage system basement solution will protect their Vesper, WI home through future storms and snowmelt cycles.

In Arpin, WI, the entryways to a homeowner's home and garage faced a worsening issue with cracking and uneven concrete.

In the before photo, notice how the crawl space in Arpin, WI was damp, musty, and unusable. This environment offered the perfect conditions for mold growth and wood decay, compromising comfort and safety. Sure-Dry’s solution involved encapsulating the area with our CleanSpace system, as seen in the after photo. We installed a TripleSafe Sump Pump for optimum moisture control along with SmartJack support posts to stabilize and elevate the crawl space. The transformation has given the homeowner a dry, clean foundation and peace of mind, redefining the potential of an often overlooked area.
The owners of this home in Grand Marsh, WI were tired of their ugly, damp, cold concrete basement walls. On top that, they wanted a solution that would also help eliminate the moisture coming in through those walls and creating water problems in their basement.
To solve both the issue of the ugly basement walls and to eliminate the moisture issues these homeowners were having, Sure-Dry Basement Systems installed their BrightWall® Basement Wall Panel System.
BrightWall is a rigid plastic sheeting that's attached to your basement wall by drilled-in plastic fasteners. Its bright white color maximizes the available light in your basement, creating a cheerful, clean-looking space.
BrightWall is 100% waterproof and washable, and it creates a vapor barrier on your basement walls to block out water vapor and humidity. This ensures that you won't have to worry about mold growth or rot. Like our other wall products, it can direct water seepage into your perimeter drain.
