Wet Basement Repaired & Waterproofed in Plymouth, WI

Before:

After:
Sure-Dry installed a complete waterproofing system that included WaterGuard® interior drainage to collect groundwater, a TripleSafe™ sump pump system for maximum reliability, and IceGuard® fittings to prevent discharge line backups during freezing conditions.

Wet Basement Contractor Work Completed in Laona, WI

Before the project, the homeowner in Laona, WI was dealing with recurring water issues along the basement perimeter and cold, damp foundation walls. During heavy rains and spring snowmelt, water appeared at the cove joint where the floor meets the wall, leaving damp bands, minor puddling, and efflorescence on the slab. The existing sump pump system was basic and unprotected, offering limited redundancy and leaving the homeowner concerned about failures during storms or power outages. Bare concrete walls contributed to heat loss, condensation, and a persistent musty odor that made the space uncomfortable and unreliable for storage or future finishing.

After Sure-Dry completed the work, the basement was upgraded with a comprehensive waterproofing and wall system designed for long-term performance in Wisconsin’s Northwoods. A WaterGuard® interior French drain was installed along the affected walls at the footing to intercept groundwater and cove joint seepage before it reaches the floor surface. The drainage system was directed into a TripleSafe® sump pump system, providing three levels of pump protection in a sealed basin to manage normal flow, high-demand events, and power outages. The walls were covered with Basement to Beautiful wall panels, adding insulation value, a clean finished surface, and a thermal break between the cold concrete and the interior space.
The homeowner now has a dry, warmer, and more useful basement in Laona, WI, with wall moisture, groundwater, and sump discharge managed by a coordinated interior drainage and wall panel system that supports future finishing plans.

Sump Pump Installation in Pulaski, WI

Before

This homeowner in Pulaski, WI wanted to protect their newly constructed home before finishing the basement. Although the basement had not experienced any water intrusion, it was built without a sump pump system or humidity control. In Wisconsin, changing groundwater levels, heavy rainfall, and spring snowmelt can place hydrostatic pressure against foundation walls, even in brand-new homes. During our inspection, our basement waterproofing specialist recommended installing a complete waterproofing solution now rather than waiting for a future water problem to occur.

After

Our production team installed a TripleSafe Sump Pump System to provide three levels of protection against groundwater intrusion, including a battery backup pump that continues operating during power outages. To help maintain a healthier basement environment, we also installed a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidification System to control excess humidity, reduce the potential for mold growth, and improve overall air quality. By installing these systems during new construction, the homeowner has taken a proactive approach to protecting their investment and preparing the basement for future finishing while ensuring dependable performance through Wisconsin's changing seasons.
