Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

In Sparta, WI, a homeowner was looking through the weather for the week and noticed it was going to warm up. Concerned that the snow around their home would melt and enter their basement, the homeowner began looking into basement waterproofing contractors around the area and found us. After browsing our website and becoming impressed by our 5-star reviews, the homeowner contacted us to schedule their FREE estimate.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Ryan K., arrived at the home to provide a thorough inspection. During the inspection, Ryan tested the humidity levels in the basement and took note of the areas where water leaks were present. After reporting his findings to the homeowner, he began working on a detailed solution. Ryan recommended installing WaterGuard, our interior drainage system that directs water leaks to the sump system, CleanSpace, our vapor wall liner that prevents water vapor from permeating the walls, TripleSafe, our reliable sump system with three levels of protection, IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line that allows water to escape in freezing temperatures to prevent sump burnout, and Aprilaire, our strong dehumidifier. After looking over the proposal, the homeowner was happy to see all our products come with a warranty and decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Kiko P., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew was able to successfully install 34ft of WaterGuard and CleanSpace, 1 TripleSafe, 2 IceGuards, and 1 Aprilaire.

Heather C. in Sparta, WI had water leaking into her basement through her foundation wall causing damage to her home. She contacted American Waterworks, and one of our waterproofing experts, Rick Weber, designed a thorough solution. Heather was impressed with the solution, so she chose to move forward with the installation.

Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his production team started the installation by removing the concrete around the perimeter of the basement floor to create a trench for the WaterGuard. After installing the SuperSump sump pump and laying 182 feet of the WaterGuard, they replaced the concrete and installed the Foamax wall panels. Foamax is an advanced polyisocyanurate foam insulation panel designed to prevent condensation and make the basement a more comfortable space. Water is now properly expelled from the home and the walls have been permanently stabilized. Her basement is now a stable, dry and clean space. 

Sue A. in Sparta, WI was tired of dealing with a wet basement after heavy rains and snow melt. She had an older basement, and the water was seeping in through the small cracks where the wall meets the floor. She contacted American Waterworks for a FREE estimate, and we sent one of our Design Specialists, Rick Weber, to meet with her and evaluate the situation. Rick designed a thorough plan and assured Sue that our waterproofing system would provide a permanent solution. 

Our Foreman, Dylon VanCanneyt, and his production crew were able to successfully waterproof Bryan’s basement by first removing the concrete around the inside perimeter of the basement. Next, they installed 78 feet of our WaterGuard drainage System and our SuperSump sump pump. Then, they installed two feet of our CleanSpace vapor barrier along the walls, filled the gaps with rock, and replaced the concrete. Water is now guided through the WaterGuard, to the SuperSump, and is quietly, and efficiently discharged from the home. Sue was thrilled with the results, and glad she chose to invest in a permanent solution for her home.  

Janice B. in Necedah, WI noticed a foul smell and rust-colored water building up in her yard and seeping into her basement, clogging the sump pump. She contacted American Waterworks, and we sent our Design Specialist, Rick Weber, to her home to evaluate her situation. He discovered that Janice had a buildup of iron ochre in her old sump pump and outside her home. He explained that it is not a known health hazard but can quickly clog a French drain system and cause damage to pipes and plumbing systems. He presented her with our WaterGuard IOS Perimeter Drain Channel, which is ideal for managing this problem. Janice was impressed with Rick’s presentation and our products and moved forward with an installation date. 

Our production crew replaced her old sump pump and installed our recommended TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe is backed by three layers of protection and can easily take on the challenge of iron ochre. Our sump pumps are able to pump out ½" solids without clogging. Janice was impressed with the installation and is happy knowing her sump pump is free of iron ochre infiltration.
