Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Charles City, IA was concerned when she noticed some areas of her basement were damp. She found that it had created some damage to the space, especially to the carpet in one of the rooms where there had been leaks. Rather than let the issue continue to grow, she decided to research basement waterproofing solutions. During her search she found the American Waterworks website and was interested in our FREE estimates, so she scheduled one for herself. We received her request and sent over Design Specialist Ryan Manske to the home to carry out an inspection of the area. Ryan assured the homeowner that there were solutions to repair the space and get it back to a water-free state. The homeowner was relieved to hear this and agreed to the project plans. Once the plans were approved, we sent over Foreman Lane Schlobohm and his crew to install both our WaterGuard perimeter drain system and CleanSpace wall vapor barrier. The crew carefully had both products installed and ensured they worked properly so there would be no more incoming water into the room. The homeowner was glad that she had reached out to us instead of leaving the problem and was happy with the final results.
