Before & After Photos

Before

The homeowner in Berlin, WI had a basement that regularly experienced water seepage during heavy rain and seasonal snowmelt, creating damp conditions, standing water, and persistent humidity. Left untreated, these conditions can damage stored belongings, contribute to musty odors, and increase the risk of mold growth. Homeowners searching for basement waterproofing, basement waterproofing company, or basement waterproofing contractor often experience these same issues when groundwater enters through the floor-to-wall joint.

After

Sure-Dry installed a comprehensive basement waterproofing system featuring the WaterGuard® Interior Drainage System, a SuperSump® Sump Pump System, and the Sedona SaniDry™ Dehumidification System. The WaterGuard system now captures groundwater before it reaches the basement floor and channels it directly to the SuperSump for reliable removal. The Sedona SaniDry system controls excess humidity, helping eliminate damp, musty conditions and creating a cleaner, healthier, and more comfortable basement year-round.

While there are a number of potential causes of cracked and bowing foundation walls, the most common reason is pressure from foundation soils.  When clay soils get wet, they can expand and put tremendous pressure on a wall. When this force exceeds the wall's ability to resist it, the wall begins to fail in different ways. Cracking, bowing and tilting are the most common symptoms of foundation wall failure. 

The block foundation wall of this home in Pine River, WI is an example of how pressure from the wet soil surrounding the foundation can cause bowing and cracking.  

To permanently stabilize this block foundation wall, Sure-Dry Basement Systems installed their Geo-Lock™ Foundation Wall Anchor System.  The Geo-Lock™ Foundation Wall Anchor System permanently stabilizes your basement walls, offering the best opportunity to straighten the walls without the cost and disruption of foundation replacement.  Heavy-duty, galvanized earth anchors are embedded in stable, undisturbed soil outside your foundation wall. Each anchor is connected by a steel rod to a wall plate that provides clamping pressure against the inside of the foundation wall. This method also offers the potential to straighten the wall back to its original position.

When our Pine River homeowner faced escalating water issues in their basement, seen clearly in the before photo, they knew it was time to call us for help. After assessing the situation, we installed our reliable WaterGuard system, tailored specifically for this kind of challenge. Notice in the after photo how dry and secure the space now looks. We transformed a worrisome, water-logged basement into a worry-free zone, reaffirming our commitment to delivering remarkable customer experiences and lasting solutions.

Before, this homeowner in Eland, WI, faced a leaking basement that turned their space unusable and damp, as seen in the left photo.

Notice in the after photo, the basement is dry, clean, and fully usable again. Our commitment to providing lasting solutions transformed this problematic basement into a comfortable and dry area of the home.
