Waterproofing Contractor in Junction City, WI

Before this project, the homeowner in Junction City, WI—already a Sure-Dry customer with an existing GeoLock® Channel Anchor system in place to stabilize previous foundation wall movement—began noticing water seepage returning along the base of the walls and at the cove joint where the floor meets the wall. While the GeoLock system continued to provide structural support, rising groundwater and hydrostatic pressure were forcing water through the cold joints and along the slab edge during heavy rains and snowmelt. Moisture staining, occasional small puddles, and a musty basement odor developed along several wall runs that did not previously have interior drainage. The existing sump pump discharged properly, but without a continuous drainage system and bleeder connection from the footing, the pump was only addressing water that reached its pit, not the seepage spreading along the perimeter.

After Sure-Dry completed the work, the basement received a targeted waterproofing upgrade designed to work in harmony with the existing GeoLock Channel Anchor system. A WaterGuard® interior drainage system was installed along the affected wall runs at the footing to intercept groundwater and wall seepage before it could reach the finished floor surface. The crew also installed a bleeder line from the WaterGuard system to the homeowner’s existing sump basin, allowing collected water to drain directly into the pump for discharge outside. Concrete was carefully re-poured over the trench to restore a clean, finished slab edge, while the anchored walls remained fully supported by the previously installed GeoLock system.
The homeowner now has a structurally stabilized and dry basement, with the foundation movement controlled by GeoLock and water managed by a continuous interior drainage system tied into their existing sump pump for long-term wet basement repair performance in Junction City, WI.
