Before: Water Bubbling Up Through the Foundation—Even After Cleanup

After experiencing major flooding, the homeowners brought in a restoration company to handle cleanup and damage repair. But once the drying equipment was gone, they discovered something worse—water was still bubbling up through the foundation. The sump pump system wasn’t doing its job, and there was no way to manage groundwater coming in around the perimeter.

After: Dry, Protected Basement with WaterGuard® & SuperSump®

Our team installed a full interior WaterGuard® drainage system to capture water at the base of the foundation before it can rise to the surface. We also replaced their outdated pump with a SuperSump® system, complete with a powerful discharge line to move water far away from the home.

Now, their basement is dry—for real this time. No more standing water. No more surprises after the equipment leaves.

Before:
A homeowner in Kaukauna, WI, wanted to improve their basement by adding an egress window that would make the space brighter and meet safety requirements for future finishing plans. The existing basement windows were small, allowing little light or ventilation, and did not meet code for emergency egress. The homeowner wanted a durable, long-term solution that enhanced both safety and comfort.

After:
Sure-Dry’s installation team excavated the exterior area and installed a complete egress window system, including a large, code-compliant window, a strong window well, and a clear protective cover to prevent debris and water intrusion. The crew also added drainage stone at the base of the well to direct water away from the foundation and ensure long-term performance. The new installation brought in ample natural light, improved ventilation, and created a safe, accessible emergency exit.

The homeowner was very pleased with the transformation, noting the basement now feels bright, open, and ready to finish with confidence.

Before:
In Argonne, WI, a homeowner was dealing with recurring water intrusion along the basement walls and floor joint after snowmelt and heavy rain. The seepage created damp, musty conditions and made it difficult to keep the space usable. Without a proper drainage system or reliable sump pump, water often pooled at the low points of the floor, increasing humidity and the risk of damage over time.

After:
To solve the problem permanently, the Sure-Dry crew installed a WaterGuard® interior drainage system to capture and channel groundwater to a new SuperSump® system. This system combination ensures consistent water management and keeps the basement dry, even through Wisconsin’s heaviest seasonal runoff.

The homeowner now enjoys a dry, odor-free basement with reliable protection designed to last for years.
