Washington Island, WI's Dependable Contractor for Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair

A homeowner on Washington Island, WI, recently reached out to Sure-Dry, hoping to extend the life of their home by keeping their crawl space dry and protected. This space, prone to dampness and humidity, was beginning to threaten the comfort and structure of their property.

Upon scheduling an inspection, our Customer Care Specialist secured an appointment for our System Design Specialist to visit the site. After a meticulous evaluation, it was apparent that the excess moisture in the crawl space was contributing to issues like structural damage and potential mold growth. Our specialist quickly outlined a comprehensive solution custom-tailored to eradicate these concerns and safeguard the home for the future.

Our production team took the helm by installing our CleanSpace® crawl space encapsulation system. The 20-mil, 7-ply liner, known for its robustness and microbial protection, worked effectively to keep the crawl space dry. To complement this, we added CleanSpace™ Drainage Matting beneath the liner, ensuring proper water redirection and enhancing the overall durability of the installation. Finally, RimTight insulation was applied to the rim joists, sealing and insulating the space, thus promoting energy efficiency by minimizing humidity infiltration.

With these systems robustly in place, the homeowner experienced an immediate enhancement in their crawl space, now clean, dry, and safe from future damage. They gained peace of mind knowing that their home is fortified against moisture nuisances, secure, and optimized for energy efficiency. This successful transformation exemplifies our mission to deliver reliable, long-lasting solutions with unmatched expertise and care.

A homeowner on Washington Island, WI, reached out to us with a significant concern. For years, they battled basement flooding in their utility area, and with the hopes of keeping the property in the family for future generations, they were determined to find a lasting solution. They enlisted the help of Sure-Dry Basement Systems for our expertise.

After the initial contact with our Customer Care Specialist, we scheduled a convenient home inspection. Our System Design Specialist arrived at the property, conducting a detailed, comprehensive inspection to diagnose the issue. It was clear the water seepage required an efficient drainage system coupled with a robust sump pump to manage the persistent flooding.

We implemented our WaterGuard subfloor drainage system, a strategic choice for their basement structure. This innovative solution discreetly captured both wall and floor seepage, channeling it directly to the sump pump, effectively controlling the water before damage could occur. To ensure double assurance against high volumes of water and power failures, our team installed the TripleSafe™ sump pump system alongside the drainage system. This powerful combination supported continuous operation—even during power outages—courtesy of the UltraSump™ battery backup feature.

Our trained installers executed the precise installation ensuring minimal disruption to their home life. Once the system was in place, we restored the basement, leaving it both clean and protected. The results were transformative; the homeowner now enjoys peace of mind, knowing the utility area's flooding issues are resolved and designed to stand the test of time. Sure-Dry's assured solutions not only preserved their cherished family home but also redefined the concept of a worry-free basement experience.

We recently had the pleasure of working with a homeowner on Washington Island, WI, who was seeking a permanent solution to protect their basement from constant water intrusion. Like many homeowners, they wanted to ensure their living space remained dry and functional throughout the year, especially during heavy rainfalls. After contacting our customer care team, we quickly scheduled an initial home inspection to assess the situation. Upon arrival, our System Design Specialist conducted a comprehensive examination of the basement. It was pretty clear that the existing water drainage system was not coping, and the risk of flooding during persistent rain was high. Our specialist recommended installing our WaterGuard system along with a TripleSafe Sump Pump to alleviate their water woes. Our production team, consisting of a skilled foreman and dedicated installers, got to work. They meticulously installed the WaterGuard, an interior perimeter drainage system designed to effectively capture wall and floor seepage before it reaches the basement floor. The system directs all captured water to our TripleSafe Sump Pump, which offers three levels of protection for the basement and peace of mind for the homeowner. This powerful combination not only safely redirects water away from the basement but also addresses the issues of reliability and efficiency.

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.

The sump pump of this home in Washington Island, WI was struggling to keep up with the amount of water that was finding its way, and the homeowners needed to updgrade to a system that would give them piece of mind during times of heavy water intrusion.  

To restore these homeowners' piece of mind, Sure-Dry Basement Systems installed their TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System.  The ripleSafe™ 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!
