Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

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.  This home in Rosendale, WI did not have a sump system installed, causing water to pool in the basement when it found its way in from the wet soil surrounding the home's foundation.  

To protect this home in Rosendale from future water problems, Sure-Dry Basement Systems installed their SuperSump® Premier Pump System.  The SuperSump® Premier Pump System is engineered to help keep the basement dry and healthy for extended periods of time, even in times of heavy water intrusion. The SuperSump® includes a powerful Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement. The SuperSump® can also be installed with an optional UltraSump® Battery Backup Sump Pump, which can pump out 11,500 gallons or more on a single charge!

If you have had occasional water issues but not a severe flood, the SuperSump® may be the ideal option for your home. This complete system provides total protection, and like all of our sump pump systems works perfectly with our drainage systems.

Water was finding its way into the basement of this home in Manawa, WI through the foundation walls and footing, damaging the wood studs and drywall of the finished basement.  To solve this home's water issues, Sure-Dry Basement Systems installed their WaterGuard® interior drainage 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. This product also comes with a written warranty.

Before:
A homeowner in Winneconne saw water along the wall–floor (cove) joint after storms, plus elevated humidity and a musty odor that lingered in the living space. With an older pump, they also worried about reliability during power flickers.

After:
We installed WaterGuard® interior perimeter drainage to intercept seepage at the cove joint and route it to a TripleSafe® sump system (primary, secondary, and battery-backup pumps under a sealed lid with alarm). To stabilize moisture in the air, we added a SaniDry™ dehumidifier set to maintain ~45–50% RH with a dedicated drain.

Now the basement stays clean, dry, and comfortable year-round—with dependable pumping during outages and steady humidity for better air quality.

Ice Guard was installed on a sump pump discharge line to prevent water exiting the sump pump from freezing. Sump pump discharge lines are fed outside the home, meaning it's possible they could freeze during the cold winter months. A backed-up discharge line means your sump pump won't work properly in the event of water in your basement, which will make the flooding much worse. Our solution to this problem is the IceGuard® discharge line system.

The IceGuard® fits over the top of your discharge line to provide water with a secondary escape route. When the main line is working correctly, water simply flows out as usual. However, when the discharge line is frozen, the IceGuard® allows water to escape through slotted openings in the drain pipe. This ensures that any water your sump pump is removing from your basement is safely cleared away outside your home, preventing any backed-up or frozen lines. The IceGuard® is compatible with all our sump pump systems.
