American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Michelle and Alexander H. of Monona, IA had cracked foundation walls in their garage, so they called American Waterworks to set up a FREE Estimate. Our Design Specialist, Brian Ramirez, went to their home to look at the issue and come up with a solution. After a thorough inspection, Michelle and Alexander were comfortable with Brian's offer, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Hugo Sanchez, and his production crew began the installation by digging four holes outside of the garage wall, and installed our GeoLock Wall Anchor System. Our GeoLock Wall Anchors are made to help stabilize foundation walls and straighten them out overtime. Hugo and his crew replaced the outside soil and backhilled the holes. Michelle and Alexander were pleased with the completion, and were grateful we could help them at their time of need! 

Nathan S. of Monona, IA had water leaking into his basement and his basement ceiling was sagging. To save the life of his home, he called American Waterworks to schedule a FREE Estimate. Our Design Specialist, Rick Weber, went to his home to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. After an in-depth diagnosis, Nathan scheduled an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Kiko Pena, and his production team began the installation by installing four of our SmartJacks down the center of the basement to raise the sagging ceiling. Next, our crew broke out the concrete around the perimeter of the basement floor to form a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, made to collect water seepage from the walls. Lastly, Kiko and his team applied our CleanSpace Wall System, made to keep mold and humidity away from the basement. To complete the project, our team filled the open gaps with rock and replaced the pre-existing concrete. Nathan was amazed with the work, and was thankful we were able to safe the life and stability of his home!

A homeowner from Milltown, WI, was dealing with an outdated sump pump. The sump would continually cycle, even when there was no rain. The homeowner grew tired of repeatedly hearing the pump cycle, so he decided to look into other waterproofing solutions for his basement. After perusing the internet, he found our website. Impressed by our basement waterproofing before and after pictures, he signed up for his FREE estimate. Several weeks later, Daniel R, one of our Design Specialists in the homeowner's area, stopped at the house to evaluate the issue. 

Daniel took his time with his inspection. When he was done, he met with the homeowner to inform him that he believed that there were three products in our inventory that he believed would fix the problem. First, Daniel recommended the installation of our WaterGuard. This unique french drain system gets installed below the slab of the basement floor and atop the footing of the foundation, keeping it out of the 'mud zone' where similar drains tend to clog. This drain works to collect water entering from holes and cracks in the floor, giving it a channel to flow to the sump pump. Because of the severe deterioration of the old sump pump, Daniel recommended the use of our TripleSafe sump pump. Our TripleSafe sump pump is our most reliable sump on the market, providing three levels of protection for your basement and your peace of mind. For normal functioning, the TripleSafe has a powerful, cast-iron Zoeller 1/3 horsepower sump pump set at the lowest level. For heavy volumes of water, or in case of primary pump failure, the TripleSafe boasts a second, more powerful Zoeller 1/2 horsepower pump set a bit higher in the liner. Finally, Daniel informed the homeowner that even homes with comprehensive waterproofing systems can still develop moisture and mold problems and could even feel damp. Concrete walls and floors continually absorb moisture from the soil and release it into the air in your basement, and store-bought dehumidifiers simply aren't strong enough to solve the problem. For this reason, Daniel recommended our AprilAire dehumidifier. Adding an Aprilaire dehumidifier creates healthy air and can reduce the number of viable viruses in the air to less than 1% in two days when set to 50% RH. The homeowner agreed with Daniel's recommendations and scheduled the job for several weeks later. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Jeremiah F, led his team through the successful installation of 132ft of WaterGuard, 1 TripleSafe pump, and 1 AprilAire dehumidifier. Now, our customer can rest easy knowing his waterproofing issue is solved!
