Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

William and Joan M. of Trempealeau, WI had water leaking into their basement through their walls, causing them to worry about water moisture and damp mold growth. They had American Waterworks do work for them before, so it wasn't a tough decision for them regarding what contractor to go with. Our Sales Manager, Mike Radosevich, went to their home to inspect their basement and come up with a solution. William and Joan were both confident in Mike's proposal and got all of their questions answered, so they moved forward with the project. 

Our Foreman, Raul Barroso, and his production team began the project by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which collects water seepage from basement walls, prevents water clogs, and serves as an underground drainage system. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier around the wall perimeter, which is made to prevent mold growth and serve as an extra wall protectant. To complete the project, Raul and his crew covered the open gaps with rock and applied new concrete. William and Joan had a remarkable experience from start to finish!

Marylyn M. of Trempealeau, WI had water coming into her basement through the holes in her walls during heavy rains. She was nervous about the problems occurring enough to the point it would damage her property. She called American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Chuck Haldeman. Chuck went to her home, carefully inspected the problems in her basement, and drew up some options that would cure the problem. She was confident in one of Chuck's plans, so she signed the contract and got a date scheduled for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Tremaine Jackson, and his production team started the installation by jackhammering out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which is made to prevent water and mud clogs, collect water seepage from basement walls, and serve as an underground drain. Next, our team installed our FoamMax HalfWall Panels around the wall perimeter. Our FoamMax is a special foam insulation that provides comfort and saves energy bills while making the basement look neat and bright. To complete the installation, Tremaine and his crew covered the open gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over them. Marylyn was happy with the new view of her basement!

A homeowner from Arcadia, WI, was dealing with a sump pump issue. The homeowner's existing system was having trouble keeping up in times of heavy rain, which made the homeowner nervous because he knew that an outdated sump pump could lead to a flooded basement. He began to look for a local company who could help update his sump pump system, and quickly found American Waterworks. After watching our sump pump videos of our installations, he decided to claim his FREE, no-obligation estimate. 

Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Mac C, headed out to the home. When Mac arrived, he completed a thorough inspection of the basement and met back with the homeowner when the evaluation was complete. Mac recommended our TripleSafe sump pump system to replace the outdated pump. Our TripleSafe is the most reliable sump pump in our lineup, as it boasts three levels of protection for both your basement's health and your peace of mind. In times of normal functioning, the TripleSafe has a powerful, cast-iron Zoeller 1/3 horsepower pump set at the lowest level. For times of heavy water, or in case of primary pump failure, a second, more powerful Zoeller 1/2 horsepower pump is set a bit higher in the liner to take over. The homeowner was thrilled with Mac's recommendation and signed for the job on the spot. 

Several weeks later, our Foreman and his team placed the sump system in the basement with no issues. Now, our customer can head into Spring with confidence that his basement is properly defended against unwanted water! 

Allen S. in Arcadia, WI had standing water in two of the corners of the basement, causing humidity problems. He was tired of trying to deal with this problem by himself and decided it was time to involve a professional . He saw a commercial for American Waterworks and decided to give us a call. Shortly after, we had one of our Design Specialists out to his home to give him a FREE onsite estimate. 

Our Design Specialist built a personalized plan with Allen that would permanently waterproof his basement.. Our crew installed a full perimeter of WaterGuard, lateral feed lines through the middle of the basement to guide water to the WaterGuard, and a TripleSafe sump pump.

The WaterGuard drainage system directs any water seeping in to the sump pump. Once the water reaches the sump pump, it is then pumped through the discharge line and expelled to the outside of the home. Our waterproofing system is backed by a lifetime warranty, so Allen has peace of mind that he chose to protect his basement for the long-term. Allen no longer has the frustration of dealing with standing water in his basement.
