American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Calmar, IA, knew it was time to have their basement redone. The homeowner wanted it done right since they were completing an entire project. After discovering damp spots throughout their basement, the homeowner knew they needed to waterproof the entire space. The homeowner decided to look into "basement waterproofing near me" and one of the first companies to catch their eye was us, American Waterworks. Impressed with our ratings and review, the homeowner knew we were the perfect company for the job. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was finalized, the homeowner awaited the arrival of Brady, one of our Design Specialists. Brady arrived at the home and started his thorough investigation of the basement. During his inspection, Brady found several areas where the home was suffering the most. To prevent the water intrusion from continuing, Brady recommended fully waterproofing the entire space. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner decided to go ahead with Brady's recommendations. Once the homeowner approved Brady's plans, he passed them along to our Logistics team for the final stamp of approval. Our Logistics team built and scheduled the project, then it was assigned to our Foreman, Matt, and his crew. Matt and his crew traveled to Calmar and began by installing WaterGuard around the basement perimeter. Next, the crew shifted their focus to taking out the old sump pump and replacing it with the SuperSump+. Then, the crew attached CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. Finally, the crew completed the project by installing an Aprilaire E100. As soon as all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to assist their homeowners in repairing their suffering basements.

A homeowner from Calmar, IA, was noticing an odd phenomenon around his home. At times, a foul odor could be detected wafting through the air of the home. Try as he might, the homeowner could not pin down the source of the odor. After speaking with neighbors, he realized the issue might be coming from his below-ground crawl space. The homeowner didn't know much about crawl space upkeep, so he took to the internet to find a crawl space repair specialist near Calmar, IA. When he found American Waterworks, he was pleasantly surprised by our digital footprint, and decided to schedule his FREE estimate. 

Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Brady S, stopped out at the home to see what could be done. Brady got down in the crawl space to complete his thorough inspection, after which he met with the homeowner to discuss the best path forward. Brady began by explaining that the homeowner was correct to assume his crawl space was to blame for the odor. Brady explained that he found evidence of water intrusion, and would recommend crawl space encapsulation to fix the issue. Crawl space encapsulation requires several products to properly defend the space. First, drainage matting is laid down on the floor of the space. This dimpled mat works to provide a channel for water to flower freely through to a disposal site. Next, our CleanSpace is applied to the floors and walls of the crawl space. This 100% plastic vapor barrier stops moisture from passing through floors and porous concrete walls. The homeowner agreed, and he and Brady worked together to find the best time for the installation. 

When all was said and done, the homeowner was thrilled to know his musty crawl space was a worry of the past! 

Tom G. in Lakeland, MN had a sunken and cracked driveway that caused the surface to be uneven and dangerous. He started researching concrete repair options and he discovered American Waterworks. He was intrigued to learn more about our PolyLevel concrete repair solution, so he contacted us to receive a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists, Kevin McWithey, went onsite to evaluate his concrete and provide him with a solution. Tom was pleased to learn that our PolyLevel concrete repair solution is faster, durable and more affordable than traditional concrete repair, so he decided to move forward with the project.  

Our PolyLevel experts drilled small holes into the concrete slabs on his driveway that needed to be raised. Then, they injected the polymer foam until the slabs became level with the garage floor and the trip hazard was eliminated. Then, they sealed the holes with concrete and caulked the cracks in the concrete with our NexusPro sealant to protect the concrete and give it a nice, finished look. Tom is pleased with the outcome and he is glad he chose American Waterworks to repair his concrete!
