American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Heather B. had water leaking into her basement and multiple cracked and bowing foundation walls. She wanted to address these problems before they got any worse, so she contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists created a thorough foundation repair and waterproofing plan to restore her basement.

Heather chose to move forward with installing our systems, so our production crew installed our WaterGuard drainage system, our SuperSump sump pump, wall anchors and PowerBraces. The project took two days, and now Heather's basement is permanently protected, and her peace of mind is restored.

Kris R. in Oelwein, IA was suffering from a wet basement. She had been dealing with this challenge for a couple of years and was ready to find a long-term solution. She contacted American Waterworks, so we sent one of our Design Specialists, Mac Cole, to her home to inspect the basement and develop a solution. She was impressed with our products and agreed with the proposal, so she set a date to have our waterproofing system installed.

Our production team installed the WaterGuard drainage system around the perimeter of the basement floor and connected it to the TripleSafe sump pump that we installed. After the drainage system and sump pump were installed, we replaced the concrete and cleaned the work area. The installation took two days to complete, but now her peace of mind has been restored and she is confident that her basement will remain dry.

Joe and Carolyn of Oelwein, IA, had begun to notice that the stairs and adjoining porch in front of their home were beginning to sink. The couple was worried that if the problem was left unresolved, the gap forming between the stairs and the home would only worsen, creating a bigger trip hazard and a bigger, and more expensive, problem to fix later down the road. They came across our services and decided to get in contact with us to see what could be done. When they called in, set them up with one of our FREE estimates, and our Design Specialist, Tim, was able to go out to the property and do a thorough inspection. Once he concluded, he was able to inform Joe and Carolyn that they were experiencing this issue because the soil beneath the slabs was sinking because of excess rain or heat, causing the soil to shrink. He recommended the couple fix the issue quickly to avoid any further issues down the line. He recommended they use our PolyLevel injection to raise the concrete back to its former state and follow up with our NexusPro to seal the joints connecting the slab and the home and to seal off any remaining holes or points of entry for water. Our Foreman, Jake, and his crew began the project by strategically drilling holes into the problem concrete slabs. Next, they injected the foam into the holes, paying close attention to the slab as it was lifted. Finally, they sealed off any remaining holes with the NexusPro. 

When the job was complete, Joe and Carolyn were happy they no longer had to worry about trip hazards forming! 

A homeowner in Oelwein, IA, knew it was time to schedule their annual maintenance appointment. The homeowner called our Service team and scheduled their annual maintenance appointment. Once the appointment was made, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Service Technician, Julio.  A few days later, Julio arrived at the home and began the thorough inspection of the installed products. During the inspection, Julio confirmed all the products were working correctly. However, Julio noticed some signs of water damage near the basement windows. To prevent the damage from worsening, Julio recommended replacing the current basement window with our Rockwell Egress Window Well. Knowing this was their best plan of action, the homeowner decided to go ahead with the recommendations. Next, Julio passed the proposal to our Logistics team to build and prepare the project. Our Logistics team gave the final stamp of approval, they scheduled the project with our Foreman, Gabriel, and his crew. A few weeks later, Gabriel and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Gabriel and his team started by taking out the old window and replacing it with a new window and a Rockwell Egress Window Well. After the Rockwell Egress Window Well was secured, the crew shifted to installing a line of WaterGuard. Finally, the crew wrapped up by attaching CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. Once all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to provide their homeowner peace of mind knowing their basement is secured.
