Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Brad V. of Saint Peter, MN had water issues in his basement every spring, so he finally called American Waterworks after seeing one of our company trucks driving around his area. He scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Dylan Woitas. Dylan went to his home, carefully inspected his basement leaks, and came up with a solution that fit Brad's needs. Brad was confident in Dylan's proposal, so he scheduled a date for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his production crew began the project by jackhammering out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. Inside the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain, which prevents water and mud clogs, collects water seepage from basement walls, and has easily accessible service ports for check-ups. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the basement wall perimeter. Our CleanSpace prevents mold and humidity, saves money on energy costs, and covers any uneven surfaces. To complete the installation, our team filled the open faps with river rock and applied new concrete over them, ensuring the basement looked clean and tidy. 

At American Waterworks, we do more than just basement waterproofing. We also provide services in foundation repair, radon testing/mitigation, crawl space repair/encapsulation, and concrete repair/lifting. Call us today to schedule your FREE estimate!

A homeowner in Saint Peter, MN had many years of experience with water damage in their basement, so they finally gave American Waterworks a call after seeing our vehicles and yard signs around their hometown. They scheduled a FREE Estimate with one of our Design Specialists to examine their basement and design a detailed solution. The homeowner was confident in our proposal of our Basement to Beautiful Wall Panels and our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain and their warranties, so they signed the contract. 

Our Foreman and his production team started the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a waterway trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain, which serves as an underground drain, collects leaking water from basement walls, and prevents water and mud clogs. Next, our team installed our Basement to Beautiful Wall Panels around the entire wall perimeter. These wall panels provide energy savings, serve as a protective blanket, and prevent wood rot and mold growth. To complete the project, our team filled the open gaps with rock and applied new concrete over them. The homeowner was thrilled with the work and had a great experience!

A homeowner in Detroit Lakes, MN became worried about the state of her crawl space after a heavy rainfall. After checking the space, she found some water damage and figured something was up with the current sump pump and how much water it was pumping. She quickly went online to find a service that could find if that was the root of the problem and to offer a solution for the space. The homeowner found the American Waterworks website in her searching and decided to choose us because of our positive reviews from previous customers. She signed up for a FREE estimate with us and was later greeted by one of our Design Specialists, Kole Lefebvre. Kole found that the pump in the wet crawl space was indeed the problem. He explained that installing our WaterGuard system would help to intercept the water in the crawl space and send it away to a new TripleSafe pump to prevent more damage and from it leaking into the home. The homeowner agreed to the plans and was eager for the project to begin. Our Foreman and his crew arrived at the site and installed both products. They ensured everything was working properly and the homeowner was very impressed with the work that was done.

Lorelle J. from Paynesville, MN was experiencing excess water build-up due to the old sump pump that was installed in the home. This water build-up was damaging other parts of her home including the foundation. Lorelle then contacted the Appointment Center here at American Waterworks to claim her FREE estimate entitling her to a free home inspection. Once an appointment was scheduled,  our Design Specialist then attended the home and began a thorough inspection of the home and the perimeter of the home to properly diagnose the issues Lorelle is experiencing and provide a proper solution that would not only eliminate the issue but prevent any other issues from arising. Once the inspection was completed our Design Specialist recommended that Lorrelle replace the old sump pump and invest in the TripleSafe Sump Pump system that we offer here at American WaterWorks. Lorelle agreed and proceeded to schedule a date of installation. 

Our Foreman, Julio Murillo, and his designated crew then proceeded with the installation process by taking out the pre-existing sump pump and replacing it with the Triple-Safe Sump Pump System. The Triple-Safe Sump Pump System has three levels of protection which solves all water problems a homeowner may experience. Along with the Triple-Safe Sump Pump comes a battery backup which helps in the case of a power outage, keeping the basement dry and secure. To finish the job the crew proceeded to fill the gaps with engineer fill to prevent any sediment from entering the sump pump basket and affecting the pumps. Once backfilled the team then proceeds to put a layer of concrete to provide a finishing look. Lorelle was happy with the job and had a great experience with the production crew!!

Ken S. in Thorton, IA contacted American Waterworks after seeing one of our ads in the local newspaper. His home already had two sump pumps, but water was still seeping into the basement, and he was looking for more options. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Ryan Powell, to meet with Ken and evaluate the situation. Ryan recommended our TripleSafe sump pump and Ken approved. 

Our Foreman, Matt Zeller, and his production crew were able to swap out the sump pumps and also installed our SaniDry XP dehumidifier to take care of any humidity in the basement. For normal functioning, the TripleSafe has a Zoeller ⅓ horsepower sump pump set at the lowest level. For heavy volumes of water or in case of primary pump failure, a second, Zoeller ½ hp pump will take over. In case of a power outage, our UltraSump battery backup sump pump, set at the highest level, will pump 11,500 gallons or more on a fully charged battery. Ken was impressed with the quick installation and is confident in his new TripleSafe sump pump!
