American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Patricia W. of Arcadia, WI had water leaking into her basement, causing flooding hazards and stains in her basement, due to the high percentage of iron. Iron ochre is a rust-colored bacterium that dissolves in water and attaches to pipes, and eventually results in complete blockage. To resolve the problem, she called our office line and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Hector Garcia, to learn more about our basement waterproofing repair products. Hector went to Patricia's home to inspect the problems and come up with a solution. After a thorough inspection, Patricia was comfortable with Hector's proposal, so she moved forward with the project. 

Our Foreman, Raul Barroso, and his production team began the project by breaking out the concrete perimeter of the basement floor, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our Iron Ochre Perimeter Drain. This system is ideal for managing difficult iron water problems. The wide-open design of the drain helps it resist clogs, while a removable lid allows for easy access and maintenance. Next, our production team installed our CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier around the wall perimeter. Our CleanSpace is made to prevent mold and humidity, cover any holes or divots, and provide the space with a neat and clean appearance. To complete the installation, our team covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Patricia was very thankful we were able to help serve her and her home repair needs!

Vanessa D. of Arcadia, WI had water leaking through the cracks of her basement walls, and she wanted to get them looked at before the problem got any worse. She went online and came across American Waterworks and our free estimate page, so she requested a free estimate with our Design Specialist. Our Design Specialist went to her home, thoroughly inspected her basement, and drew out a solution that worked for her and her needs. Vanessa got all of her questions answered and felt confident in the proposal, so she went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman and his production team began the project by jackhammering out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System, which prevents water and mud clogs, collects water leakage from basement walls, and serves as an underground drain. Next, our team installed our FoamMax Wall Panels, which reduces the condensation for moisture protection and prevents mold and humidity. Lastly, our Foreman and his crew installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which is the best sump pump we provide for homeowners because it triples the protection, solves all three water problems in one unit, and comes with a battery back-up. To complete the project, our team backfilled the gaps with pea gravel and applied new concrete over them. Vanessa was happy with the repairs and had a great experience! 

Not only do we waterproof basements. We also repair foundation, lift and level concrete, test for radon, waterproof and repair crawl spaces, and install egress windows! Call us today or click HERE to request a free estimate with our Design Specialist team.

A homeowner in Arcadia, WI was interested in increasing the curb appeal of his home. He hadn't done any kind of repairs to the area since moving in and wanted to make some changes for the upcoming year with his front walkway. Looking online to find a solution, his goal was to find something that wouldn't cause too much disruption to the concrete and not break the bank. He found our website and was impressed with the American Waterworks reviews page that showed our positive comments from past customers. He also was interested in our FREE estimate appointments and signed up for his own. We received his request and sent over Design Specialist Darin Stenglein to the home to carry out a detailed inspection. Darin informed the homeowner that installing our PolyLevel solution would help to lift the walkway back up and NexusPro sealant would work to seal in the empty joints that currently stood out. The homeowner agreed to the plans and waited for the project date to come. Our Foreman, Dylon VanCanneyt, and his crew arrived at the site and installed the two products to restore the walkway area. The homeowner was impressed with the work done and happy with the final results.

A homeowner from Arcadia, WI, was dealing with a sump pump issue. The homeowner's existing system was having trouble keeping up in times of heavy rain, which made the homeowner nervous because he knew that an outdated sump pump could lead to a flooded basement. He began to look for a local company who could help update his sump pump system, and quickly found American Waterworks. After watching our sump pump videos of our installations, he decided to claim his FREE, no-obligation estimate. 

Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Mac C, headed out to the home. When Mac arrived, he completed a thorough inspection of the basement and met back with the homeowner when the evaluation was complete. Mac recommended our TripleSafe sump pump system to replace the outdated pump. Our TripleSafe is the most reliable sump pump in our lineup, as it boasts three levels of protection for both your basement's health and your peace of mind. In times of normal functioning, the TripleSafe has a powerful, cast-iron Zoeller 1/3 horsepower pump set at the lowest level. For times of heavy water, or in case of primary pump failure, a second, more powerful Zoeller 1/2 horsepower pump is set a bit higher in the liner to take over. The homeowner was thrilled with Mac's recommendation and signed for the job on the spot. 

Several weeks later, our Foreman and his team placed the sump system in the basement with no issues. Now, our customer can head into Spring with confidence that his basement is properly defended against unwanted water! 

A homeowner in Arcadia, WI, knew it was time to repair their separating front step. Worried this could become a major tripping hazard, the homeowner began looking into "sinking concrete step repair". One of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided to go ahead and sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Ross, who traveled to the home to begin the inspection. Once the inspection was completed, Ross recommended lifting the steps back to their original position. The homeowner agreed and worked with Ross to find the best installation date. Once the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Jordan, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Jordan and his crew started by installing PolyLevel, a polyurthane foam injection solution, below the sidewalk. Once the PolyLevel was inserted, the crew shifted to filling the joints and cracks with NexusPro, a silicone-based solution. After all the products were installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. American Waterworks is happy to provide its customers with a high-quality solution.
