Sure-Dry Before & After Photos

The basement of this home in Menominee, MI was dark, outdated, and not up to code for use as a living space. With an undersized, rusted window and no safe emergency exit, the homeowners couldn’t use the space for a bedroom or family area—and little natural light made it feel cold and uninviting.

To make their basement safer and more functional, Sure-Dry installed a Rockwell Egress Window System.

This high-performance egress solution features a beautiful stone-look window well made from durable, UV-stable composite material. A built-in ladder provides a safe escape route in case of emergency, while the polycarbonate well cover protects against water and debris.

By allowing natural light to pour in, this egress window transforms a previously unusable basement into a bright, code-compliant living space.

Designed for safety, style, and durability, the Rockwell system is a smart investment that adds long-term value to the home. With its resistance to frost, rust, and rot, it delivers peace of mind in all seasons.

Before:
A homeowner in Menominee, MI, wanted to make their basement safer and more inviting by installing an egress window. Their existing basement windows were small and outdated, offering little light and no emergency exit. The homeowner planned to use the basement as additional living space and needed a solution that would meet code requirements while improving comfort and appearance.

After:
Sure-Dry’s team excavated the area outside the foundation and installed a new egress window system, including a large, code-compliant window, a durable well, and a clear cover designed to prevent debris and moisture buildup. Drainage stone was placed at the bottom of the well to promote proper water flow away from the foundation. The new window provided ample natural light, increased ventilation, and a secure emergency exit that meets modern building standards.

The homeowner was delighted with the finished result, noting how much brighter and more comfortable the basement felt — and with peace of mind knowing it’s now safe and code-compliant.

In Sturgeon Bay, WI homeowners are annoyed with their long pipes hanging around their home. They know they need them because they discharge water out from their pump, but, they know they can't put it underground because otherwise, it will freeze. Out of ideas, they called Sure-Dry Basement Systems to come take care of the problem.

Our crew knew just what to do. We installed our IceGuard System which is extremely handy and good to have. Our IceGuard System fits right on top of their discharge line to provide water a second way out if the main line is frozen. If the main line is frozen when water tries to discharge out it will back up to your pump which will then cause flooding in your basement. But our IceGuard System allows water to escape through slotted openings in the drain pipe. Which then tells you, your mainline needs to be unfrozen. 

Thanks to Sure-Dry, these homeowners now won't have pipes hanging all around their yard and they also know they won't have to worry about their basement flooding because of them being underground.

During the winter months, no one wants to be outside because of that awful chill winter brings. That's why these homeowners in Sturgeon Bay, WI needed our help. It seemed as though no matter how high they turned up the heat, it was still cool in their home. 

As soon as they called our team at Sure-Dry, we knew just the solution that would fit these homeowners needs. Our crew installed our SilverGlo Product to their crawlspaces walls, which is where the outside air was entering through.

Crawlspaces can be open to the earth which is an easy access point for cold air to enter through to your home, which is exactly what was happening for these homeowners.

What the SilverGlo Product does is insulate the crawlspace, not only that but inside the foam are tiny particles that actually reflect heat back into the crawlspace.

Having complete reassurance that their crawlspace and home will be kept warm from the outside air, these homeowners can go back to resting in their nice warm home until the winter months are over!
