Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

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!
