Before & After Photos

In Fond Du Lac, WI, a customer dealt with a sump pump failure and a flooded basement, compromising their peace of mind and home's integrity. In the "before" photo, you might notice visible water issues and potential damage. We installed our robust WaterGuard system, positioned discreetly beneath the floor, solving underground drainage challenges effectively. Beside it is our Primo SuperSump, ensuring reliable water evacuation. As shown in the "after" photo, these proven solutions transformed their basement, offering enduring dry conditions and enhanced home security, fitting seamlessly into our commitment to secure households.

Before:
This Fond du Lac home was dealing with ongoing water seepage and flooding every time it rained. The basement was musty, damp, and at risk of further damage with each storm. Like many older homes in the area, there was no proper interior drainage system in place—meaning water had nowhere to go.

After:
Our team installed a complete basement waterproofing system featuring:

• WaterGuard® interior drainage to collect and redirect incoming water

• Inspection ports for easy access and future maintenance

• A reliable SuperSump® Plus sump pump system to keep water moving out efficiently

With this system in place, the homeowner now has a clean, dry basement and peace of mind every time the forecast calls for rain.

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.
