Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Having a wet or damp basement can create more than just a headache. Problems like these can cause larger problems like mold, mildew, rot, structural damage, and health problems. If you have noticed any symptoms such as a wet basement floor or walls, standing water, smelly odors, condensation, sump pump problems, or leaky basement windows, it is time to get in contact with a professional to come and inspect your basement. 

A resident of Thompson, ND was seeing similar problems like this, so he got in contact with American Waterworks after doing some research. He got a FREE estimate scheduled with our Design Specialist, Richie Noreen. Richie went to the resident's home, inspected the basement, and determined a solution that would work for them and their needs. He proposed our WaterGuard Drainage System and a feed line to the sump pump. The homeowner was confident in the proposal after getting their questions answered, so they followed through with the project. 

Our Foreman, Cameron Pjrakonekham, and his production team started the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGaurd Below Floor Drain, which prevents water clogs, collects water leakage from basement walls, and serves as an underground drain. Next, our team formed a feed line from one side of the WaterGuard to the sump pump. The purpose of a feed line is to transport water from high influx areas to the sump pump. The homeowner was happy with the work that was completed!

A homeowner in Hawley, MN, was concerned with the water stains throughout their basement walls and floors. Worried about the upcoming winter, the homeowner wanted to get a head start on waterproofing their home. The homeowner asked some of their friends, and they all recommended working with us. Interested in what we would say, the homeowner signed up for our FREE estimate on our website. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Ian. After Ian arrived, he introduced himself to the homeowner and began his evaluation of the basement. Following his evaluation, Ian determined that the basement did require waterproofing. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner agreed with Ian's suggestions. After receiving the stamp of approval, the production plans were sent to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Kingsley, and his crew arrived at the home to begin. First, the crew installed the WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. Then, the crew installed the SuperSump + in the southwest corner of the basement. Next, the crew installed CleanSpace around all the basement walls. Finally, the crew installed an IceGuard on the outside discharge line. After installing all the waterproofing products in the basement, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowners were grateful to know that their basement was no longer at risk of flooding. American Waterworks is happy to assist other customers feel safe in their own homes.
