Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Inver Grove Heights, MN, noticed their sump pump was not acting right. While it was running, the homeowner noticed that the sump pump was making odd noises. Having a hunch it was about time to replace their old sump pump, the homeowner began searching for a replacement. The homeowner knew they needed a professional to remove the old sump pump and install the new one. During their research, the homeowner came across the number of sump pumps and services we offer. Impressed by our several services, the homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the consultation details were finalized, we sent one of our Design Specialist, Jesse, to complete the estimate. Upon arrival, Jesse examined the current sump pump and confirmed that it did need replacing. Jesse showed the homeowners several sump pump options, and the homeowners decided upon the TripleSafe Sump pump. The plans were then sent to the assigned crew to begin the sump pump installation. Our Foreman, Gustavo, and his crew arrived at the home to begin production. First, the crew removed the old sump pump from the home. Once the old sump pump was removed, the crew then put in their new TripleSafe Sump pump. After the TripleSafe Sump pump was installed, the crew installed the IceGuard on the outside of the home. The crew successfully installed all the requested products and cleaned up the job site. The homeowners were relieved to know that they have a properly working sump pump and discharge line. American Waterworks is happy to educate and install new sump pumps in our customers' homes. 

James R. of Inver Grove Heights, MN had water leaking through the floor of his basement, making him nervous about his home repair needs. He went on Google, called our office line, and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Josh Schultz. Josh went to his home, examined his water problems, and came up with the solution of our waterproofing system called WaterGuard. James got all of his questions answered about the product and warranty, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Jose Flores, and his production team broke out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a trench. Inside the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which is made to prevent water clogs, collect water seepage from basement walls, and act like an underground drain. Jose and his team covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete, making the basement look neater than when they found it. 

Jennifer F. of Inver Grove Heights, MN had water leaking through her wall into her basement. She had work done by our team before so she requested another FREE estimate with our Design Specialist to bid out the cost of a thermal insulation wall. Our Design Specialist proposed our Basement to Beautiful Wall Panels for the project. Jennifer was confident in the product and its advantages, so she went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman and his crew installed 60 feet of our Basement to Beautiful Wall Panels, which is a warm, protective blanket that saves money on energy costs and prevents rotting and mold growth. Jennifer was very happy with the project and said the communication was great throughout the process.

A customer from Saint Francis, MN got in contact with us when he began to notice water entering an older well room of his home. He wanted to ensure that the foundation of his home was preserved and safe from water damage. When he called in, we set him up with our FREE estimate. Next, our Design Specialist, Jesse, headed out to the property to see what could be done. Once he completed his thorough inspection, he was able to make a recommendation as to how we could fix the issue. Jesse wanted to use several of our products, beginning with our CleanSpace vapor barrier. He explained that this tarp-like material works to trap water entering through cracks and holes in the wall, draining it downwards to our WaterGuard french drainage system. Jesse went on to say that this drainage system sits below the concrete of the floor out of the "mud zone" and traps water entering through the ceiling and cracks in the floor and drains it to the appropriate source. Next, Jesse wanted to use our SuperSump Plus sump system, to handle the customer's current water intrusion with the opportunity to expand in the future. Our customer agreed with the plan of action and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Jeromy, and his crew ended up installing 14ft of CleanSpace and WaterGuard throughout the well room along with one SuperSump Plus system. Our customer is now happy to know his waterproofing issues are a worry of the past! 

Chris, from Andover, MN had concerns that his basement was not meeting its energy efficiency potential and wanted to see ways where he could improve the basement living space. He then proceeded to call our appointment center here at American Waterworks with this concern. We set up Chris with a FREE estimate entitling him to a thorough inspection by one of our Design Specialists. Once the appointment was set our Design Specialist, went to the property and did a complete walkthrough and saw that Chris might benefit from the EverLast windows that we offer here at American Waterworks. Our EverLast windows along with their designated window wells help make the basement more energy efficient and provides more natural light in the basement. Chris agreed and we proceeded with the installation process. Our production crew then began cleaning out the old and installing the new. Chris was happy to know that he will be saving more energy and have more sunlight entering his basement.
