Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner in La Crescent, MN, heard odd noises coming from their basement. After taking a closer look, the homeowner determined the noises were coming from their sump pump. Worried this was a sign their sump pump was dying, the homeowner knew they needed to find an expert to provide them with answers. The homeowner looked into "best home sump pump" and "sump pump replacement near me", and the first company to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks. After seeing our impressive before and afters, the homeowner knew that we were the ideal company for their project. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, we sent one of our Design Specialists, Michel, to the home to take a closer look. Michel promptly arrived at the home and began the inspection. Once Michel completed the inspection, he confirmed that the sump pump needed to be replaced. The homeowner agreed and worked with Michel to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Chris, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Chris and his crew took out the old sump pump. Then, the crew secured the TripleSafe sump pump in its place. After the TripleSafe was secured, Chris and his crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. American Waterworks is happy to provide its customers with the best sump pump on the market.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Mac C., arrived at the home to conduct a thorough inspection of the basement. During the inspection, Mac took a close look at the basement, testing the humidity levels and finding where the leaks were. After reporting his findings to the homeowner, Mac began working on a detailed solution. To waterproof the basement, Mac recommended installing WaterGuard, our interior drainage system, CleanSpace, our vapor wall liner, SuperSump+, our reliable sump pump system, and IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge system. The home was also experiencing high radon levels and Mac recommended our radon mitigation system. Confident in our team, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Lane S., and his crew arrived at the home to waterproof the basement. The crew successfully installed 114ft of WaterGuard and CleanSpace, 1 SuperSump+, and 1 IceGuard. In about a week, our Foreman, Gus and his crew arrived to install the radon mitigation system.

Kay H. in La Crescent, MN had water leaking into her basement. She was concerned about the high humidity and the damage it was causing. She saw advertising on one of our vehicles in her area and decided to give us a call. She met with one of our Design Specialists, Rick Weber, who inspected the home and proposed a permanent solution. 

Our Foreman, Matt Zeller, and his production crew began the waterproofing project by first removing the concrete around the perimeter of the basement and installing our WaterGuard drainage system. Then, they installed our recommended TripleSafe sump pump, which is backed by three levels of protection. Any water is now guided through the WaterGuard to the sump pump, and from there, is expelled from the home. Lastly, our SaniDry dehumidifier was put in place to take care of any humidity. Kay was happy with the project and glad her basement is now a dry, clean space. 

Kelly S. in La Crescent, MN contacted American Waterworks after being referred by another contractor. The home had an old sump pump that was unable to keep up with heavy rains and snow melt. She had water leaking into her basement, and she wanted a permanent solution. She met with Pete Wangen, one of our Design Specialists, who worked with Kelly to create a custom plan for her home. 

Our Foreman, Matt Zeller, and his production crew began the project by removing the concrete around the perimeter of the basement and through the  middle of the floor, then laying our WaterGuard drainage system. Next, they hung our CleanSpace vapor barrier along the walls to further protect the space from moisture and mold. Then, they filled back the gaps in the floor with rock before replacing the concrete and cleaning up their work area. Kelly was pleased with the results and glad she made the investment to protect her home.

Mary M. of La Crescent, MN had water leaking through the floor of her basement at the end of her staircase, making her worry about the safety of her home. One of her friends referred to American Waterworks, so she called our office and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Mac Cole. Mac went to her home to inspect her basement and come up with a solution. Mary was confident in Mac's proposal, so she went ahead with the project.

Our Foreman, Tremaine Jackson and his production team broke out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which serves as an underground drain that leads to the outside of the home, prevents water clogs, and collects water seepage from basement walls. To complete the project, our crew covered the gaps under the WaterGuard with rock and applied new concrete. Mary said she had a wonderful experience and was grateful we were able to help her and her home repair needs!
