American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Nora Springs, IA, noticed their basement was suffering from water intrusion. Used to the cause, the homeowner knew they needed to find an expert to provide them with a proper solution. The homeowner looked into "wet basement waterproofing contractors near me," and one of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Brady. A few days later, Brady promptly arrived at the home and began his thorough inspection of the basement. During his inspection, Brady confirmed that several areas were suffering from water intrusion. To prevent this issue from worsening, Brady recommended waterproofing the entire space. Knowing this was the best plan of action, the homeowner agreed and worked with Brady to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Jose, and his crew traveled to the home to begin. First, Jose and his crew began by installing WaterGuard around the basement perimeter. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew replaced the old sump pump with the TripleSafe. Next, the crew attached GeoLock Wall Anchors to the struggling walls. Finally, the crew attached CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. Finally, the crew cleaned up their matierals and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew. After all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their matierals and left the home. American Waterworks is happy to provide its customers with peace of mind. 

Dennis O. in Hayward, MN had water seeping into his basement that was causing damage to his home and it was making the space unlivable. Dennis decided it was time to seek help from a professional waterproofing contractor, so he began to research local companies. He came across American Waterworks and was pleased to see that we offer FREE onsite inspections, so he set an appointment.

One of our Design Specialists, Mike Radosevich, went to his home to evaluate the situation and find a solution. Mike developed a thorough plan to waterproof his entire basement for a lifetime. Dennis felt that Mike’s plan was the best fit for his needs, so he moved forward with the installation.

Our production team removed the concrete perimeter of his basement to install our WaterGuard drainage system. Then, the TripleSafe sump pump was installed. Any water seeping into his basement will now properly drain to the sump pump, which will then be discharged from the home. Dennis also chose to have our CleanSpace vapor barrier installed, which prevents leaks and mold growth. The CleanSpace brightened his basement and made it a more welcoming space. Dennis is pleased that he chose the option that protects his basement for a lifetime. He can now enjoy a dry, livable basement!

Cody O. of Waverly, MN had sagging floors falling into her crawl space. She needed them to be lifted, so she got in contact with American Waterworks and got a FREE estimate scheduled. Our Design Specialist went to Cody's house, inspected her crawl space, and proposed our Crawl Space Support Posts. Cody was confident in the proposal, so she went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman and his crew installed our Crawl Space Support Posts to lift and stabilize the sagging floors. Because of its design, they can be adjusted over time by the homeowner or by our service technician on the system's yearly check-up. Cody was happy with the repairs and noticed the difference right away!

A homeowner in Waverly, MN, had noticed their walkway slabs sinking, causing the entryway to become uneven. Knowing the issue would continue to worsen, the homeowner began searching for concrete lifting services in the area and found us. After browsing our website and becoming impressed by our reviews, the homeowner contacted us to schedule their FREE estimate. 

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Gary S., arrived at the home to conduct a thorough inspection. During the inspection, Gary noticed signs of soil washout and explained to the homeowner that soil washout is the process where water moves through the ground and washes away the supporting soil. To fix the homeowner's concrete issue, Gary recommended lifting the slabs with PolyLevel, our waterproof foam solution, and using NexusPro, our silicone-based sealant to seal the joints. After reviewing Gary's recommendations, the homeowner happily agreed.

In a couple of months, our Foreman, Troy J., and his crew arrived to carry out the installation. The crew began by drilling small holes into the slabs before injecting PolyLevel beneath the slab. Once the slabs have been lifted and leveled, the crew seals the holes.

Now, our customer can have a smooth and level concrete! Experiencing something similar? Click HERE to schedule your FREE estimate today!

Chris P. in Grafton, IA had an old sump pump and a Beaver System in his home, but he still had water leaking through the foundation into his finished basement. Unfortunately, the water had caused damaged to his drywall and flooring. He contacted American Waterworks and we sent one of our Design Specialists, Dylan Woitas, to his home to provide a permanent solution. He approved of the plan and moved forward with an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Jesus Covarrubias, and his production crew removed the damaged portion of the drywall and then removed the concrete around the perimeter of the basement floor to create a trench for our WaterGuard drainage system. They laid the WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement, so the water would be properly guided to our recommended TripleSafe sump pump. Then, they filled back the gaps around the WaterGuard with rock and replaced the concrete. They installed our EverLast half-wall restoration system, which includes metal studs and an inorganic, mold-resistant wall product that replaces the bottom 32" of the drywall. This is a permanent solution for water-damaged dry wall! Chris was pleased with the results and glad he can now enjoy a clean, healthy basement!
