Before & After Photos

Before

The homeowner in Rothschild, WI was remodeling their basement and wanted to add a bedroom to create additional living space. However, the existing basement window was too small to provide the emergency escape and rescue access required for a bedroom, preventing the space from meeting modern safety standards. Homeowners searching for basement waterproofing, basement waterproofing company, or egress window installation often find that installing an egress window is a necessary part of safely finishing a basement.

After

Sure-Dry installed a RockWell Egress Window System by excavating outside the foundation, creating a properly sized window opening, and installing a new egress window and window well with appropriate drainage. The new system provides a safe emergency exit, allows more natural light into the basement, and gives the homeowner the confidence to complete their basement remodeling project knowing the future bedroom will have a code-compliant means of escape.

Before: A homeowner in Wautoma, WI contacted Sure-Dry after discovering severe bowing and cracking along a basement wall. The wall was gradually shifting inward due to years of soil pressure and moisture buildup, raising structural concerns.

After: Our team installed the GeoLock® Channel Anchor System to permanently stabilize the wall. Anchors were driven into stable soil outside the home and connected to interior steel channels that distribute pressure evenly.

The system halted wall movement and provided the strength needed to restore long-term stability and safety.

Before Installation

The basement in Wausau, WI, had a standard small window that was insufficient for use as an emergency exit. This window allowed minimal natural light into the basement bedroom, creating a somewhat dark and confined atmosphere. The lack of a proper egress window not only compromised safety but also limited the usability and appeal of the space.

After Installation

Following the installation by Sure-Dry, the basement bedroom now features a new egress window that meets all safety regulations for an emergency exit. The new window is significantly larger, allowing much more natural light to flood the room, creating a brighter and more inviting environment. The addition of the egress window enhances the overall safety of the basement, providing a reliable and accessible escape route in case of emergencies. This upgrade also increases the functionality and value of the basement, making it a more attractive living space.
