Before:
In Wisconsin Rapids, WI, a homeowner was dealing with water seeping across their basement floor every time it rained. The existing sump pump could not keep up, and sections of the slab showed signs of hydrostatic pressure buildup — water forcing its way up from beneath the concrete. This ongoing issue caused damp conditions, musty odors, and concern about potential foundation damage if left untreated.
After:
Sure-Dry installed the SuperSump® Premier Pump System, designed for high-capacity water removal and long-term reliability. To relieve hydrostatic pressure, the team also added a bleeder line — a small, engineered channel that allows trapped groundwater beneath the slab to flow directly into the sump basin for controlled discharge.
With both systems working together, the basement now remains dry and protected even during heavy rains, giving the homeowner confidence that their foundation and living space are safeguarded from future water intrusion.

Before:
A homeowner in Wisconsin Rapids, WI, noticed that water was seeping along the basement floor where the walls meet the slab, especially after heavy rainfall. While the home already had a sump pump pit in place, the existing setup wasn’t able to effectively collect or manage water entering around the perimeter. The homeowner wanted a system that would connect to the current sump and ensure full basement drainage protection.
After:
Sure-Dry installed a WaterGuard® Interior Drainage System along the basement perimeter to capture groundwater before it reached the floor surface. The new system was seamlessly tied into the homeowner’s existing sump pump pit, allowing collected water to flow directly into the sump for safe discharge outside.
With the WaterGuard system in place, the basement now stays completely dry, eliminating standing water and protecting the foundation from long-term moisture damage.
With occasional water issues happening, we installed the SuperSump pump to this homeowners basement. This sump pump was the best fit for their needs. It can discharge 2,200 gallons of water per hour and best yet will keep their basement dry!
WaterGuard and Bleeder Lines were installed at customer's home to prevent water from flooding their basement.
