Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Worthington, MN grew concerned about his basement space, especially with the heavy rainfall they had been experiencing. When he went down to check it out, he found some water pooled up on the floors and near the base of the walls. Not wanting the issue to continue getting worse and possibly cause more damage to the space, he contacted American Waterworks for assistance. During the call our appointment center set him up with a FREE no-obligation estimate with one of our Design Specialists, Lance Schmidt. When Lance arrived at the home, he inspected the basement and found the water the homeowner had talked about. Lance recommended some products to be installed in order to waterproof the basement and stop the water intake for good. The homeowner agreed and the plans for the project began. One of our Foreman, Victor Salvador, and his crew arrived at the site to carry out the installations of our WaterGuard perimeter drain system and TripleSafe sump system. The results left the basement water-free, and the homeowner was so glad that he had contacted us for help.

A homeowner in Worthington, MN was downstairs checking in on his utilities space when he noticed some water damage on the floors. He figured his current sump pump wasn't able to keep up with pumping the water, so he decided to find a company that could give professional insight on the problem.

After Worthington, MN, was rocked with numerous storms in a short period, a homeowner went down to his basement and was shocked to find water entering the space through corners of his basement. He was concerned about what his findings could mean for the health of his home, so he decided to begin looking for interior waterproofing MN, and eventually found our website. After looking through our basement waterproofing before and after images, he signed up for one of our FREE estimates, and several weeks later, Lance S, one of our Design Specialists, headed out to the home to see what could be done. 

After Lance finished his thorough inspection, he was ready to meet with the customer to deliver his recommendations. Lance began by reassuring the homeowner that he had done the right thing by taking action as soon as possible. He then said he wanted to use two of our products to address the water intrusion. First, Lance wanted to use our CleanSpace vapor barrier. This 100% waterproof plastic barrier gets installed directly onto the basement walls, and works to direct water entering through holes or cracks in the basement wall down and into a perimeter drain, which in this case, Lance had recommended to be our WaterGuard. The WaterGuard® System is an award-winning, patented below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. By installing the drain at this point, it's kept out of the "mud zone", the point where clogged drains are common. The unique shape and large drain openings of WaterGuard® also aid in preventing clogs in the system. This drain works to collect the water draining down the wall from the CleanSpae, as well as the water entering through cracks or holes in the floor and gives it a channel to flow freely to a disposal site, such as a sump pump or discharge line. The homeowner liked the sound of the two products working together and decided to schedule the project for several weeks later.

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Francisco, led his team through the installation. When they were finished, they had successfully installed 143 ft of WaterGuard and another 137ft of CleanSpace. Now, our customer can breathe easier knowing his water intrusion issues have been handled by professionals!

A homeowner in Worthington, MN, worried their basement was at risk of flooding. Hoping to resolve the issue before the heavy rains, the homeowner began looking into "who to call for a basement leak near me" and one of the first results was us, American Waterworks. Impressed with our stellar ratings and reviews, the homeowner knew that we were the ideal company for their project. The homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate and awaited the arrival of our Design Specialist, Tony. A few days later, Tony arrived a the home and began the thorough inspection of the basement. Tony noticed the east wall was suffering from water damage and he recommended installing WaterGuard and CleanSpace to prevent this issue from worsening. The homeowner agreed and they found the best installation date. Once the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Juan, and his crew traveled to the home to begin. First, Juan and his crew secured WaterGuard, our innovative below floor drain system, along the basement perimeter. Next, the crew attached CleanSpace, our plastic watervapor barrier, on the unfinished basement walls. After all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. American Waterworks is delighted to assist their homeowners in repairing their water damaged basements. 

John S. of Worthington, MN had water leaking into his basement and cracked foundation walls, making him feel nervous about water moisture and the structural build of his home. He did some research online and came across American Waterworks. He called our office staff and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Eric Hazelton. Eric went to his home, examined the problems, and came up with a solution that fit his home repair needs. John was confident in Eric's proposal, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his production team began the project by cutting out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which is made to prevent water clogs, serve as an underground drain, and collect water leakage from basement walls. Next, our crew installed our CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier, which is made to prevent humidity and mold build-up, cover any holes or divots, and provide the room with a neat and clean appearance. Lastly, Juan and his team installed our foundation repair PowerBraces. Our PowerBraces are made to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. PowerBraces can be tightened over time to make bowing or tilting walls straighter and more vertical. To complete the project, our team covered the open floor gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. John was thrilled with the project!
