Wet Basement Repaired with New Sump Pump & Drainage System in Shawano, WI

Before
The homeowner in Shawano, WI experienced recurring basement water intrusion during heavy rain and spring snowmelt, a common issue in northeastern Wisconsin where saturated soils create hydrostatic pressure along foundation footings. Water was entering at the wall-to-floor joint, leaving damp concrete surfaces and raising concerns about long-term moisture damage and reduced basement usability.
A detailed inspection confirmed active seepage along the perimeter with no interior drainage system in place to intercept groundwater before it reached the basement interior.

After
Sure-Dry installed a full interior basement waterproofing system, including the WaterGuard® interior drainage system to capture groundwater at the footing level and direct it to a new SuperSump® sump pump system for reliable discharge away from the foundation. The system was installed below the slab to remain unobtrusive while actively managing water during heavy rain events common in Shawano County.
The basement is now protected from water intrusion and remains dry and controlled year-round.
