When a sump pump fails, you know it's time for a new one. Which is why in Neenah, WI homeowners had a 10 year old sump pump that was giving out. They knew that if they didn't act fast, the next rainstorm would flood their basement.

Our installation crew installed the SuperSump. This pump is perfect for them because it is able to pump out exactly what these homeowners need to have a dry basement.

Before: Water Damage, Moisture, and Structural Concerns

This home in Neenah, WI was experiencing serious moisture issues below grade. The basement and crawl space showed signs of long-term water intrusion—standing water after heavy rains, musty smells, visible mold, and failing support beams.

Outdated basement windows and rusted window wells were letting in even more moisture, while the crawl space lacked any kind of vapor barrier. Plumbing fixtures from an old basement bathroom further complicated the layout, making it nearly impossible to install proper drainage without professional rerouting.

The homeowners knew they needed a comprehensive solution—not just to dry out their home, but to protect their foundation, improve indoor air quality, and add long-term value.

After: A Dry, Safe, and Structurally Sound Home Below Grade

Sure-Dry designed and installed a complete basement and crawl space repair system, combining waterproofing, structural support, and indoor air quality improvements. The project included:

• WaterGuard® interior drainage system

• SuperSump® Plus sump pump for reliable water removal

• CleanSpace® vapor barrier to seal off the crawl space from moisture and humidity

• SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier system with RimTight™ ducting for dry, healthy air

• EverLast™ basement window replacements and new window wells

• Beam replacements to restore structural stability

• Plumbing modifications: We moved a basement toilet and capped sink and shower lines, all completed by our in-house Master Plumber

By addressing every issue—from water control and air quality to structure and plumbing—this Neenah home is now dry, energy-efficient, and safe for the long term.

The space below grade is no longer a liability. It’s an asset.

Before

This Neenah, WI home had a poured concrete foundation, but water was still finding its way into the basement. Even poured foundations can experience basement water problems when groundwater builds up around the foundation and finds openings along the wall-floor joint or through cracks and penetrations.

Wisconsin homes are especially susceptible during periods of heavy rain and spring snowmelt, when saturated soils can create hydrostatic pressure around the foundation. Without an effective drainage and sump system, that water can make its way inside and leave homeowners dealing with a wet basement.

After

Sure-Dry installed a complete interior basement waterproofing system beginning with WaterGuard® along the perimeter of the basement. WaterGuard is installed at the wall-floor joint where groundwater commonly enters, capturing the water before it can spread across the basement floor and directing it toward the sump system.

A SuperSump® system was installed to collect and pump the water safely away from the foundation. The system also included a battery backup pump, providing an additional layer of protection if the primary pump loses power during a storm or power outage.

With WaterGuard directing groundwater to the SuperSump and battery backup providing added protection, this Neenah basement now has a waterproofing system designed to keep it dry through changing Wisconsin weather conditions.
