Before & After Photos

Before: The basement in this Fond du Lac home suffered from persistent humidity and musty odors, even though the sump pump was functioning properly. Excess moisture was creating uncomfortable air conditions and raising concerns about potential mold growth.

After: Sure-Dry installed a Sedona dehumidifier, providing powerful, energy-efficient humidity control designed for below-grade spaces.

The system now maintains ideal humidity levels automatically, keeping the air clean, dry, and comfortable while protecting the homeowner’s investment for the long term.

Typical crawl spaces are moldy, foul-smelling spaces that homeowners avoid at all costs. Many of them flood, and they're often filled with debris left over from when the house was constructed. In more extreme cases, they can be rotting structures with rodents, animals, and other pests living within.

At Sure-Dry Basement Systems, it's our job to make sure that your musty crawlspace is transformed into a cleaner, drier, healthier, and more energy-efficient space.

Before: A Damp, Musty Basement in Need of a Permanent Fix

A homeowner in Hortonville, WI was frustrated with recurring water issues in their basement. After nearly every rainfall, water would seep in where the wall met the floor. The basement smelled musty, the floor was often damp, and stored belongings were constantly at risk.

With no sump pump and no drainage system in place, the moisture was getting worse with time—and traditional patch fixes weren’t working.

After: A Dry, Protected Basement Thanks to Sure-Dry

Sure-Dry installed a WaterGuard® interior drainage system to intercept water at its entry point and direct it safely to a newly installed UltraSump® battery backup sump pump system.

Highlights of the system:

• WaterGuard sits just below the basement floor to collect and redirect water before it reaches the surface.

• UltraSump provides powerful primary pumping capacity with backup power in case of outages.

• The installation was completed quickly and cleanly, with minimal disruption to the homeowner’s daily routine.

Now the basement is dry, odor-free, and protected—even during storms or power outages.

Before:
A homeowner in Pearson, WI, noticed sagging floors above their crawl space and visible gaps forming between the baseboards and flooring. Upon inspection, they found weakened wooden support posts and shifting soil beneath the structure, causing uneven floor movement. The instability raised concerns about the home’s structural integrity and long-term safety.

After:
Sure-Dry’s team installed SmartJack® support posts throughout the crawl space to permanently stabilize and lift the sagging floor system. Each adjustable steel jack was anchored on a precast concrete footing designed to provide solid, moisture-resistant support even in soft or shifting soils. The system was then carefully tightened to restore the floor to its proper level.

The installation provided strong, lasting reinforcement that eliminated bounce and unevenness, giving the homeowner confidence that their home is now properly supported and secure.
