Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Before:
A Denmark homeowner was dealing with recurring basement water after storms, with seepage appearing along the wall–floor joint. Their existing sump couldn’t keep up during heavy rains, and winter brought a new risk: the exterior discharge line could freeze and back up water into the basement.

After:
We installed the WaterGuard® interior drainage system around the basement perimeter to capture seepage at its point of entry. Collected water now drains to a TripleSafe® sump system that provides three layers of protection—primary pump for everyday flow, a secondary pump for peak demand, and a battery-backup pump for power outages. To prevent winter backups, we added IceGuard® anti-freeze fittings on the exterior discharge.

If the line freezes, IceGuard safely vents water away from the home instead of back into the basement. The result is a dry, reliable basement year-round.

Robert and Dawn upgraded their sump pump to Sure-Dry's Super Sump Premier Pump System.

In Crivitz, WI, a homeowner faced the stressful problem of having water in their basement - a nightmare no one wants to deal with, as seen in the before photo. Seeking a permanent solution, they reached out to us. With our expertise, we installed our WaterGuard system and TripleSafe Sump Pump, ensuring a dry and worry-free basement for years to come. Notice in the after photo how seamlessly our systems integrate, turning potential disaster areas into safe, dry spaces.

In this basement in New Franken, WI water had managed to seep it's way through the concrete pours and soak around the perimeter of the basement. 

We installed the WaterGuard System, which will collect water that seeps in and will drain it to the sump pump. With its tiny openings at the top of the guard, water will no longer be able to sit on this basement floor ever again.

Before:
The basement took on water along multiple wall–floor joints after rain and during thaws. Puddles, musty odors, and efflorescence were common, and humidity made storage difficult year-round.

After:
We installed the WaterGuard® interior drainage system along the leaking perimeter to intercept seepage at its source and carry it to a new SuperSump® with an airtight lid, high-reliability pump, and clean finish. The foundation walls were lined with CleanSpace® vapor barrier so any wall moisture is directed into WaterGuard instead of onto the floor. To control airborne moisture, a SaniDry™ dehumidifier was added and set to maintain healthy RH, draining automatically.

The basement is now dry, brighter, and ready for reliable use—even during heavy rains.
