American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Plymouth, IA, noticed water leaking into his basement and was concerned it would lead to long-term damage to his home. Unsure of the cause of the issue, he began looking for basement waterproofing contractors in the area and found us. The homeowner then contacted our Appointment Center to schedule his FREE basement waterproofing estimate.

In about a week, our Design Specialist, Ryan M., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, Ryan noticed that the puddles of water were around the perimeter of the basement. He explained to the homeowner that a failed footing drain could be the issue why the homeowner is facing a leaking basement. When a footing drain fails and becomes clogged, water saturates the soil surrounding the foundation and enters through the footing and the wall, beneath the footing, or cracks on the walls. To effectively fix this issue, Ryan recommended WaterGuard, our perimeter grain system that collects water and sends it to the sump pump, TripleSafe, our elite sump pump system that comes with 3 pumps in one unit, IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line that allows water to escape in case the sump pump pipes freeze, and CleanSpace, our vapor wall barrier that prevents water from permeating the walls. After looking over Ryan's proposal, the homeowner happily agreed to his recommendations and decided to move forward with the project. 

In about a month, our Foreman, Kiko P., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew installed 144ft of WaterGuard and CleanSpace, 1 TripleSafe, and 2 IceGuard. Once they were done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Cody C. in Nora Springs, IA had water leaking into his basement and did not have a functioning system in place to remove water from the home. He contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE inspection and estimate. Our Design Specialist, Mac Cole, went to his home to gain a better understanding of the issue Cody was facing. Mac developed a thorough plan to waterproof Cody's basement, and Cody was pleased with the proposal, so he scheduled the installation. 

Our production team installed a full perimeter of our WaterGuard drainage system, a lateral line, and a TripleSafe sump pump. The drainage system and lateral line properly guide water to the sump pump, and from there the water is pushed through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Cody is happy that his basement has remained a dry space, and he is glad he chose American Waterworks to help protect his home.

Breanne and Benedict M. of Nora Springs, IA had a bowed foundation wall and water seeping through their walls, causing them to worry about the value and safety of their home. They called American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist team. Our Design Specialist went to their home, carefully inspected their problems, and drew out a solution that worked for them and their home repair needs. They were confident in our proposal and presentation, so they went ahead with the installation. 

Our Foreman and his production team started the installation by installing our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the entire wall perimeter, which is made to prevent mold and mildew, and act as an extra wall protectant barrier. Next, our team installed our GeoLock Wall Anchors, which is a system that stabilizes basement walls, providing the best opportunity to straighten the walls without the disruption of foundation replacement. It also offers the potential to straighten the wall back to its original position. Breanne and Benedict were happy with the repairs and had a great experience from start to finish!

In Nora Springs, IA a homeowner was unhappy with the state of her basement. She had recently been down in the space which was when she noticed some water pooled up on the floor. Not wanting the problem to get worse and to prevent further damage, she decided to look into getting a quality waterproofing system installed. Her neighbor had used American Waterwork's services in the past and they had done an effective job, so she figured they would also be able to help her basement space. She called our office and set up a FREE estimate appointment with one of our Design Specialists, Brady Swenson. Brady arrived at the home and carried out an inspection of the basement area and prepared his recommendations. The homeowner was pleased with the plans and scheduled a date for the products to be installed. When Foreman Raul Barroso and his crew arrived at the site to install the WaterGuard perimeter drain system, they began by jackhammering channels along the floor and filling it with drainage stone. They then placed the WaterGuard system on top followed by more clean stone and a layer of concrete to hold everything in place. The homeowner was so happy with the results and to have a water-free basement space again.
