This Spalding homeowner faced a common frustration: a leaky basement that made it unusable and worrisome. The 'before' photo captures the dampness and despair, a sight too familiar for many. In comes Sure-Dry, with our dependable WaterGuard and SuperSump systems, to the rescue. As you can notice in the 'after' photo, we transformed their soggy space into a dry, comfortable, and safe area. It showcases our commitment to providing a remarkable customer experience by delivering reliable, long-lasting solutions for every home's needs.

The block foundation walls in the basement of this home in Spalding, MI had water coming through them and flooding the basement.  

To collect the water coming in through the walls, Sure-Dry Basement Systems installed their WaterGuard® system. The WaterGuard system collects water that seeps through basement walls and drains it to your sump pump. The system installs quickly and has a clean finished appearance, meaning you don't have to worry about having an unsightly drain around the basement. WaterGuard works for both block walls and poured concrete, ensuring that your basement remains dry in all situations.

To take care of these homeowners walls, Sure-Dry installed their BrightWall® Basement Wall Panels. BrightWall is 100% waterproof and washable, and it creates a vapor barrier on your basement walls to block out water vapor and humidity. This ensures that you won't have to worry about mold growth or rot. Like our other wall products, it can direct water seepage into your perimeter drain.

Before:
A homeowner in Baileys Harbor, WI had been struggling with intermittent basement flooding during heavy rains. Their existing sump system was outdated and undersized, often failing to keep up with rapid groundwater inflow. Each storm left standing water on the floor and increased humidity throughout the basement—creating a damp, musty environment.

After:
To provide reliable year-round protection, our team installed a SuperSump® Premier Sump Pump System. The system features a high-performance pump, durable airtight liner, and floor drain to capture any surface water while preventing moisture escape. The discharge line was routed for efficient drainage and sealed with a clean, professional finish.

Now, the Baileys Harbor basement stays consistently dry and protected—ensuring peace of mind and a dependable solution for future storms.

Before: A homeowner in Baileys Harbor, WI was dealing with a wet basement caused by water intrusion around the entire perimeter of the foundation. With Door County's frequent precipitation, seasonal snowmelt, and moisture-prone conditions, water was finding its way into the basement and limiting the usable space. The homeowner wanted a long-term basement waterproofing solution that would address water seepage while providing reliable protection during heavy rain events and changing groundwater conditions.

After: To permanently manage water intrusion, the Sure-Dry team installed the WaterGuard Interior Drainage System around the full perimeter of the basement. Water collected by the drainage system is directed to a new TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System, while the homeowner's existing sump pump was left in place to provide an additional layer of protection and redundancy. To further improve the basement environment, a SaniDry Dehumidification System was installed to help control humidity and reduce musty odors commonly associated with damp basements. The completed basement waterproofing system now provides comprehensive water management, multiple levels of pumping protection, and a drier, healthier basement environment.
The homeowner now has greater peace of mind knowing their basement is protected by a full-perimeter drainage system, triple-pump protection, and year-round moisture control.

A sump pump can be an incredibly valuable resource in your home. When water gets into your basement, the sump pump is what protects you from a flood that could cause expensive property damage, which is exactly what happened to this home in Ellison Bay, WI.  

To protect this home from future flooding and water damage, Sure-Dry Basement Systems installed their TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System. The TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System provides three levels of protection for your basement and your peace of mind. For normal functioning, the TripleSafe™ has a powerful, cast-iron Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower sump pump set at the lowest level. For heavy volumes of water or in case of primary pump failure, a second, more powerful Zoeller® ½ hp pump set a bit higher in the liner will take over. In case of a power outage, our UltraSump® battery backup sump pump, set at the highest level, will pump 11,500 gallons or more on a fully charged battery!
