Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Paul F. of Isanti, MN had water leaking into his basement so he called American Waterworks to set up a FREE Estimate! Our Design Specialist, Ryan Powell, went to his home to inspect the issue and come up with a solution. After a thorough inspection, Paul was confident with the proposal so he set up an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Raul Barroso, and his production team began the project by cutting out the concrete down the middle of the basement to form a feed line. They connected the feedline to the installation of our TripleSafe Sump Pump System. Our TripleSafe provides three levels of protection and is the best sump pump we offer for our customers. Raul and his team covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Paul's peace of mind is restored and is grateful we were to save the life of his basement!

Ave, a homeowner from Bethel, MN, reached out to our team because she was having issues with water continually leaking into the basement around the edge of the floor. The moisture along the walls was concerning to her, and so she wanted an expert to look at the situation and provide a FREE estimate.

We sent one of our Design Specialists, Shane Nephew, to evaluate the situation and propose a unique solution for her home. After the inspection, Shane recommended a combination of our waterproofing products. Ave approved the plan and moved forward with the project.  

Our Foreman, Lane Schlobohm, and his crew arrived at the home and promptly got to work. The team began the waterproofing project by removing the concrete around the perimeter of the basement floor to create a trench. Then, they laid the WaterGuard in the trench. The wide-open design of this drain helps it resist clogs, while a removable lid allows for easy access and maintenance. Our drain system is custom-designed to protect and help keep your basement dry all the time! The team then installed a SuperSump sump pump. They filled the gaps with rock and replaced the concrete around the sump pump and over the WaterGuard. Water now properly drains to the sump pump through the WaterGuard. The water is then expelled from the home through the discharge line. Ave's peace of mind has been restored, and she can now enjoy a dry, healthier basement for years to come!

A homeowner in Spring Valley, MN, noticed water stains on their basement floor. Unsure where the water was coming from, the homeowner wanted an expert to inspect their basement. After asking their neighborhood Facebook group, the homeowner saw several members recommended working with us. The homeowner went to our website to inspect the work we do and they were impressed with our services. Since they were already on the website, they signed up for their FREE estimate. When the appointment was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of Eric, a Design Specialist. When Eric arrived at the home, the homeowner showed him where they discovered the water stains. After taking a closer look at the basement, Eric determined the basement needed a waterproofing makeover. Eric proposed that WaterGuard be installed in the basement to stop further intrusion. The homeowner decided to follow Eric's suggestions and the plans were directed to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Kiko, and his crew were assigned to the job, so they gathered their materials and made their way to the home. Upon arrival, the crew prepped the basement for installation. When they were ready, the crew installed the WaterGuard around the basement perimeter. After the WaterGuard was installed, the crew shifted their focus to attaching CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. Once the CleanSpace was attached, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was grateful to know their basement was properly waterproofed. American Waterworks is happy to provide another homeowner peace of mind in their basement. 

Following a heavy rainstorm, a homeowner in Spring Valley, MN, made a startling discovery: standing water in their basement. Anxious that this could lead to serious issues, the homeowner knew they needed to find an expert to provide them with a solution. The homeowner looked into "flooded basement repair," and one of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks. The homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate, and then we sent one of our Design Specialists, Nate. A few weeks later, Nate promptly arrived at the home and completed the thorough inspection of the basement. During the inspection, Nate found several areas where the water was sneaking around the basement perimeter. To prevent this issue from worsening, Nate recommended installing several waterproofing products. The homeowner agreed, then the plans were sent to our Foreman, Jesus, and his crew. On the installation date, Jesus and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Jesus and his crew started by installing WaterGuard throughout the basement. Then, the crew took out the old sump pump and replaced it with the TripleSafe sump pump. Once all the products were installed, the crew cleaned their materials and left the home. American Waterworks is happy to provide its homeowners peace of mind knowing their basement is secure. 

A homeowner in Oelwein, IA, knew it was time to schedule their annual maintenance appointment. The homeowner called our Service team and scheduled their annual maintenance appointment. Once the appointment was made, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Service Technician, Julio.  A few days later, Julio arrived at the home and began the thorough inspection of the installed products. During the inspection, Julio confirmed all the products were working correctly. However, Julio noticed some signs of water damage near the basement windows. To prevent the damage from worsening, Julio recommended replacing the current basement window with our Rockwell Egress Window Well. Knowing this was their best plan of action, the homeowner decided to go ahead with the recommendations. Next, Julio passed the proposal to our Logistics team to build and prepare the project. Our Logistics team gave the final stamp of approval, they scheduled the project with our Foreman, Gabriel, and his crew. A few weeks later, Gabriel and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Gabriel and his team started by taking out the old window and replacing it with a new window and a Rockwell Egress Window Well. After the Rockwell Egress Window Well was secured, the crew shifted to installing a line of WaterGuard. Finally, the crew wrapped up by attaching CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. Once all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to provide their homeowner peace of mind knowing their basement is secured.
