 A homeowner in Greene, IA, had a hunch to check their basement following a heavy thunderstorm. Once they went downstairs, their worries were confirmed. The homeowner discovered several wet walls throughout the basement. Knowing they needed to solve the issue immediately, the homeowner began looking into "Iowa basement repair". Only one company caught their eye, American Waterworks, so they took a closer look into our company and what we offer. The homeowner was impressed with our services and products, so they decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. After the estimate was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of one of our Design Specialists, Nate. As soon as Nate arrived, he began inspecting the struggling basement and concrete. During his investigation, Nate discovered one wall was the main issue. Nate recommended waterproofing the eastern corner of the basement. The homeowner agreed with Nate's suggestions, so he passed the plans along to the office to be approved. After the office approved, they were directed to our Foreman, Jose, and his crew. Once they arrived at the home, Jose and his crew began the project by installing WaterGuard in the eastern corner of the basement. Next, the crew took out the old sump pump and replaced it with the SuperSump+. Next, the crew installed and placed the Aprilaire E100 where the old dehumidifier was located. Finally, the crew shifted their focus outside and attached an IceGuard on the outside discharge line. After all the products were installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted to know their basement was properly waterproofed. American Waterworks is happy to provide their homeowners peace of mind knowing their basement was fully waterproofed. 

A homeowner in Waconia, MN, noticed their basement had a musty odor. Concerned by this smell, the homeowner decided to solve the issue. While reviewing multiple basement waterproofing companies, the homeowners came across American Waterworks. After seeing the 5-star reviews, the homeowners decided to sign up for their FREE estimate.  Once the estimate details were set, we sent one of our Design Specialists, Eric, to the home to inspect the status. Following his inspection, Eric suggested that the homeowners fully waterproof their basement and encapsulate their crawl space. Eric showed them multiple versions of this solution, and the homeowners picked the one best fit for their home. Once the plans were finalized, they were sent to the assigned crew. 

Our crew traveled to the home and began the project. First, the crew focused on installing the waterproofing products in the basement.  First, the crew installed the WaterGuard in the northern section of the basement. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew installed a feedline across the basement floor. Next, the crew installed the CleanSpace Wall System onto the entire north wall and sections of the west and east wall. Then, SprayFoam is injected into the upper section of the walls. After the basement waterproofing was completed, the crew moved on to installing CleanSpace into the crawl space. After all the products were successfully installed, the crew cleaned up their site and was able to leave the home. The homeowners were grateful for all the great work the crew completed. American Waterworks is happy to provide another homeowner peace of mind.

Peter, a homeowner in Saint Stephen, MN, was searching for solutions to his basement issues. With no sump pump in the home, combined with water entering the basement and cracking in his garage floor, he needed help. That's why he decided to call American Waterworks for his FREE estimate. Our crews of waterproofers are experienced, well-trained professionals that work in basements and crawl spaces every day. The experts at American Waterworks have seen it all, and they know just what needs to be done to keep your space dry all the time! Shortly after the appointment was scheduled, our Design Specialist, Shane, headed out to the property. 

Following a thorough inspection, Shane gave his recommendations to Peter, suggesting that he invest in our WaterGuard system as well as our SuperSump Pump. Peter agreed, and our crew got to work.

Our Foreman, Lane, and his crew, headed out and started making Peter's home a drier, safer place to live. First, they started with our WaterGuard, a patented below-floor drain that rests in a drainage bed on top of the foundation footing. This particular system is typically used in basements and is the premier choice for basement waterproofing as it is installed below the floor but rests atop the foundation, keeping it out of the "mud zone," making it harder to clog. It is engineered to help keep the basement dry and healthy for extended periods, even during heavy water intrusion. Next, the team implemented our The SuperSump®, which includes a powerful Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement. Peter was pleased with the results and glad his basement is now a dry, healthy space. Are you having water problems in your basement?
