A homeowner from Winona, MN, got in touch with us after her basement began taking on water after a hard rain. She signed up for her FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Ryan K, was out at the home.
Ryan got right to work assessing the basement. When he finished, he was ready to make his recommendations. First, Ryan wanted to use our WaterGuard perimeter drain. This unique French drain gets installed below the basement floor but atop the footing of the foundation, keeping it out of the 'mud zone' where other drains of its nature tend to clog. Ryan explained that this drain works to collect any water coming up through the floor, giving it a channel to flow freely to a disposal site. During Ryan's inspection, he noticed that the basement lacked a means of disposing of the unwanted water, so he recommended our TripleSafe sump pump. This powerful pump is the most reliable in our lineup, offering three levels of protection for both your basement and your peace of mind. The homeowner agreed with his recommendations and decided to schedule the job for several weeks later.
On the day of the project, our Foreman, Victor S, led his team through the successful installation of 20ft of WaterGuard and 1 TripleSafe sump. Now, our customer can enjoy the rain without wondering if it will end up in her basement!
Tiffany S. in Winona, MN saw that water had started seeping into her basement through her walls and windows. The water that was pooling in her basement was creating a musty smell throughout the home and was starting to cause damage to her basement. While researching professional waterproofing contractors, she came across American Waterworks. She called us and set up a time for our Design Specialist, Rick Weber, to come onsite and give her a free estimate. Rick developed a thorough plan to fully waterproof her basement.
Foreman, Hugo Sanchez, and his crew installed a full perimeter of WaterGuard, a TripleSafe sump pump, 5 EverLast basement windows, our CleanSpace wall system, and a full perimeter of rim joist spray foam insulation. The combination of these waterproofing products created a dry, clean and livable space for Tiffany. Our waterproofing system is guaranteed for a lifetime, so Tiffany will always have peace of mind that her basement is completely protected from water.

A customer from Winona, MN got in contact with us when they began to notice unwanted water entering their basement. They didn't want the water to further damage the space, so they called into our office to see what could be done. They used their FREE estimate to have one of our Design Specialists, Mac, out to their property to assess the situation. Once he completed his thorough inspection, he was able to make recommendations as to how we could help. Mac recommended the use of our WaterGuard french drainage system. He explained that this system inconspicuously sits below the concrete of the floor, catching any water entering the space and filtering it out to the appropriate disposal site, which Mac recommended to be our SuperSump sump pump, an effective and economical water disposal situation. The customer agreed and work began shortly after.
Our Production crew, led by Foreman, Kiko, installed 40ft of WaterGuard throughout the basement, along with 1 SuperSump pump. Once the job was completed, our customer was happy to know that their basement waterproofing issues were in the past!
Holly W. of Alma, WI had water leaking into her basement, causing her to worry about damage to property. She got in contact with our office staff at American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Rick. Rick went to her home, carefully inspected her problems, and drew out the solution of our WaterGuard Drainage System, which serves as an underground drain. Holly was confident in Rick's proposal, so he went ahead with the project and scheduled a date for the installation.
Our Foreman, Tremaine, and his production team began the project by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard. Not only does it serve as an underground drain, but it also collects water leaking from basement walls and prevents water or mud clogs during harsh weather conditions. To complete the installation, our team filled the open gaps with pea gravel and applied new concrete over them, ensuring that the basement was cleaner than when they found it. Holly was satisfied with the work that was completed!
