Before & After Photos

An IceGuard Discharge Line System was added to this sump pump discharge line to help carry any water safely from the home and also to ensure the line doesn't freeze and back up in the winter. 

Sump pump discharge lines are fed outside the home, meaning it's possible they could freeze during the cold winter months. A backed-up discharge line means your sump pump won't work properly in the event of water in your basement, which will make the flooding much worse. Our solution to this problem is the IceGuard discharge line system.

The IceGuard fits over the top of your discharge line to provide water with a secondary escape route. When the main line is working correctly, water simply flows out as usual. However, when the discharge line is frozen, the IceGuard allows water to escape through slotted openings in the drain pipe. This ensures that any water your sump pump is removing from your basement is safely cleared away outside your home, preventing any backed-up or frozen lines. The IceGuard is compatible with all our sump pump systems.

Water issues in this Wausau, WI basement were eliminated with the installation of the WaterGuard Drainage System which will collect any water seeping through the basement walls and drain it into the sump pump. The system installs quickly and has a clean finished appearance, meaning you don't have to worry about having an unsightly drain around the basement. WaterGuard works for both block walls and poured concrete, ensuring that your basement remains dry in all situations.

Before: Cracked, Sunken Slabs and a Driveway No One Trusted

In Wausau, WI, this homeowner was dealing with a cracked, uneven driveway that had gotten worse over time. Several concrete slabs had sunk and pulled apart, creating trip hazards and deep gaps that allowed water to collect underneath. As the water washed away more soil, the problem grew—and so did the risk.

It got to the point where they were nervous to drive on it, afraid the concrete would keep shifting or collapse further.

After: Lifted, Leveled, and Ready to Use

Our team used PolyLevel®, a high-strength expanding foam, to lift and level the sunken slabs—quickly, cleanly, and without ripping out the existing concrete.

By filling the voids beneath and stabilizing the soil, we stopped the movement and leveled the surface. Cracks were sealed and the driveway is now safe, smooth, and solid again—with no more pooling water or erosion underneath.

Before:
A homeowner in Wausau, WI, wanted to finish their basement but was limited by small, outdated windows that did not meet egress requirements. The lack of natural light made the space feel closed-in, and without a compliant exit, the area couldn’t safely be used as a living space. The homeowner wanted a dependable solution that would bring in more light and ensure safety compliance.

After:
Sure-Dry’s team excavated outside the foundation and installed a complete egress window system, including a large, code-compliant window, a durable window well, and a clear cover designed for both drainage and protection from debris. The new system was sealed and fitted to ensure water stays out while allowing abundant natural light and ventilation inside.

The result was a bright, open, and code-compliant basement space that now feels like a natural extension of the home.

Before: This Wausau, WI, home had a damp, unsealed crawl space with exposed soil and poor insulation. Moisture and cold drafts entered freely, leading to musty odors, chilly floors, and high humidity levels inside the home.

The homeowner now enjoys a warmer, healthier, and more energy-efficient home with lasting protection against moisture and air leaks.
