Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner was enjoying his basement space when he noticed a small puddle forming in one of the corners. Worrying about further damage that could be done to the space, he contacted American Waterworks because of hearing positive reviews from his neighbors. When he called in, we set him up with our FREE estimate to see what the problem was. A few weeks later our Design Specialist, Jesse Williams, headed out to the property. After completing the inspection, Jesse agreed with the homeowner that it was better to take action now than wait for the problem to worsen. Jesse recommended using our WaterGuard system to address the water entering his basement. Jesse informed the homeowner that the system is an award-winning, patented below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. He went on to say WaterGuard® is what we usually recommend and is our most widely used drain system. It's popular because of its resistance to clogs, its easy-to-access service ports, and its ability to also collect leaking water from the basement walls. The homeowner agreed on the product and a few days later our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his crew came in with 24 ft. of the WaterGuard to fix the problem. Now our customer can enjoy his basement without worrying about water intrusion.

Our Foreman and his crew installed our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain, which is an interior drainage system designed to collect water seepage from basement walls and guide water to the sump pump. Next, our crew installed our Foamax Wall Panels, which is special insulation that keeps the basement warm and saves money on energy costs. Lastly, our crew installed our SuperSump Plus M53, which is a sump pump that keeps basements dry and discharges the water out of the basement by keeping away from the foundation. The homeowner was happy with the project and had a great experience from beginning to end.

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN, was facing wet basement issues such as water leaking between the wall and the footing and cracks on the walls.

In less than a week, one of our Design Specialists arrived at the home to provide a thorough inspection. During the inspection, he took a close look at the problem areas and answered any questions the homeowner had. He also explained that a failed footing drain could be the likely reason why water was leaking between the wall and the floor. When this fails, water saturates the soil surrounding the foundation and enters through cracks on the wall and in the joints. To fix this issue, our Design Specialist recommended WaterGuard, our elite drainage system installed at the perimeter of the basement to collect water and send it to the sump pump, CleanSpace, our wall vapor barrier that prevents water from permeating the walls and sends any water leaks to the drainage system, SuperSump+, our sump pump system capable of removing 2,200 gallons of water per hour, and IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line that allows water to escape the home in case the sump pump discharge lines freeze. The homeowner happily agreed to our Design Specialist's recommendations and scheduled the installation date with our Foreman.

In about a couple of months, our Foreman, Francisco E., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew installed 15 ft of WaterGuard, 14ft of CleanSpace, 1 Supersump+, and 1 IceGuard. Once the crew was done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.
