Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Patricia, a homeowner in Carrington, ND was experiencing water intrusion in her basement and searching for a way to solve the issue. She decided to claim her FREE inspection. Our Design Specialist, Kole, headed out to the property and completed his walkthrough; after making recommendations as to how American Waterworks could help, Patricia consulted with her son and decided to move forward with the project. Work began shortly after.

First, our Foreman and his crew added our WaterGuard system. This particular system is typically used in basements and is the premier choice for basement waterproofing. It is installed below the floor, but rests atop the foundation, keeping it out of the "mud zone", making it harder to clog. It works to trap water and sends it to an appropriate disposal site; our TripleSafe sump pump was used as an effective and economical sump solution. Next, the team installed Basement To Beautiful panels where the WaterGuard was installed. Even if you're not planning on finishing your basement, lacking proper insulation can still lead to cold floors and an inefficient home, and our Basement To Beautiful™ Basement Wall Panels are the superior choice for a dry, energy-efficient basement. Finally, they installed our CleanSpace solution instead to encapsulate the basement to prevent moisture and mold from affecting the rest of the foundation.

The team finished cleaning everything up, and Patricia was thrilled and impressed with the project from start to finish!

Megan and Andrew E. of Carrington, ND had a deteriorating foundation wall and water was leaking through it into their basement. They called American Waterworks and set up a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Richie Noreen. Richie went to their home, carefully inspected their problems, and came up with a solution that worked for them and their home repair needs. They were comfortable with Richie's proposal of our products and systems, so they went ahead with the project and scheduled an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Corey Tollefson, and his production team began the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System, which is made to prevent mud and water clogs, serve as an underground drain, and collect water leakage from basement walls. Next, our production crew installed our SuperSump Plus M53 sump pump, which is designed to keep basements dry and works effectively with our WaterGuard. Lastly, our team applied our ShotLock Wall Restoration System around the basement wall perimeter, which is a spray-on solution that offers a fast alternative to demolishing and rebuilding a deteriorating foundation. To complete the installation, our team filled the open gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over it. Megan and Andrew were happy with the repairs and had a great experience from start to finish!

Lindsay and Ryan L. of Adrian, MN had water leaking from her foundation walls into her basement, making her feel nervous about the value of her home. She needed repairs as soon as possible so we sent out our Design Specialist, Jared Bruns. Jared inspected her problems and came up with a solution. Lindsey and Ryan got all of their questions answered, so they scheduled an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Arturo Mares, and his production team began the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed 148 feet of our WaterGuard System, which is made to collect water seepage from basement walls and act like an underground drain. Next, Arturo and his team applied 50 feet of our CleanSpace Wall System, which prevents humidity and mold build-up, provides the room with a neat and clean look, and guides the water into the WaterGuard. To complete the project, Arturo and his team covered the open gaps with rock and applied new concrete. Lindsay and Ryan were happy with the results and enjoyed watching the project from start to finish! 

William and Heidi T. of Lake Benton, MN have had a wet basement ever since they moved into their home. They finally decided to have a professional look at it, so they called American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist. Our Design Specialist went to her home, carefully inspected her basement, and drew up a solution that would repair their basement and home repair needs. They were confident with our proposal and job description, so they went ahead with the project.

Our Foreman and his production team began the project by breaking out the floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain. This drainage system is the most common drainage system we provide for homeowners because of its easily accessible service ports and its ability to collect water seepage from basement walls. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the wall perimeter. This vapor barrier is designed to prevent mold and humidity, save money on energy costs, and give the basement a neat and clean appearance. Lastly, our crew installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which is the best sump pump that we provide for homeowners because it triples the protection, solves all three water problems in one unit, and comes with a battery back-up. Our battery back-up is designed to keep the sump pump running if there was a power outage. To complete the project, our Foreman and his crew filled the open-floor gaps with rock and applied new concrete over it. William and Heidi were both happy with the project, and had a great experience from start to finish!

Sandra, from Forman, ND had started noticing water finding its way into her basement. She suspected leaky walls were the cause and wanted to fix the issue before there was any serious damage done. She researched companies in the area providing the services she was looking for and found our company. When she called in, she was able to take advantage of her FREE estimate, and a few weeks later our Design Specialist, Richie, headed out to the property to complete his inspection. Once he concluded, he was able to make recommendations as to how we could help Sandra. First, Richie wanted to use our TripleSafe Sump Pump to help relieve the basement of heavy water intrusion. He explained that our TripleSafe is our most reliable sump pump system, the TripleSafe Sump Pump System provides three levels of protection for your basement and your peace of mind. Richie also wanted to use our CleanSpace as he found that water was entering through cracks in the wall. He explained that the CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof tarp that gets tact to the wall and works to catch water entering through holes or cracks, directing it down to our WaterGuard. Richie's third recommendation. Richie went on to say that our WaterGuard is a below-floor drain that works to catch the water being redirected by the CleanSpace, leading it to the TripleSafe and keeping it off the floor of the basement. Sandra agreed with Richie's solutions and work began a few months later.

Our Foreman, Cameron, and his team installed 50 ft of our WaterGuard, 50 ft of CleanSpace, and 1 TripleSafe pump. Now Sandra can enjoy her basement without worrying about water intrusion!
