Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Penny L. of Rogers, MN found one of our advertisements in her local phonebook, so she called American Waterworks to schedule a FREE Estimate to inspect the leaking water coming through her basement. Our Design Specialist, Shane Nephew, went to her home to diagnose the problem and come up with a solution. Penny got all her questions answered, so she scheduled an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Kiko Pena, and our production crew began the project by drilling weep holes at the bottom of the wall perimeter to relieve water pressure. Next, our crew installed 90 feet our DryTrak Drain Pipe System around the floor perimeter and over the holes. Our DryTrak is made to collect and channel water to the sealed sump pump or basement drain. Next, our crew applied 68 feet of our CleanSpace Halfwall around the wall perimeter to prevent mold and humidity and forces water seepage to fall into the DryTrak. Penny was happy with the outcome and was grateful we were able to help serve her and her home repair needs!

Kevin G. of Rogers, MN had moisture in his basement where the floor and wall meet. He called our office and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Chad. Chad went to Kevin's house, inspected his basement, and determined the solution of our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain. Kevin got all of his questions answered, so he got a date scheduled for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Tremaine, and his crew started the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our crew installed our WaterGuard, which is an interior drainage system that collects water and guides it to the sump pump. To complete the project, our team filled the open gaps with river rock to allow water flow, and applied a new layer of concrete over the system, ensuring the basement was neat and clean. 

Kevin was happy with the work and was grateful we could help him with his home repair needs.

Glen B. in Waverly, IA had been suffering from a wet basement for quite some time and decided it was time that he took action to protect his basement. During heavy rains, large amounts of water would leak into his basement and it had damaged his property, so he contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists, Mac Cole, went to his home to inspect his basement and design a solution. Glen liked the proposal that Mac presented, so he decided to move forward with having our waterproofing system installed.

Our production team installed a full perimeter of our WaterGuard drainage system around the basement floor. Then, they installed a TripleSafe sump pump, which is our most reliable sump pump. The WaterGuard properly drains water to the sump pump and from there, the water is pushed through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Our WaterGuard drainage system is guaranteed for a lifetime, so Glen is confident that he chose the right waterproofing solution to protect his basement.

Mike H. in Hopkins, MN was suffering from a failed sump pump. His old sump pump was no longer functioning, and moisture was accumulating around the sump pump, creating a musty smell. He began to look for companies that install new sump pumps, when he came across the American Waterworks website. He gave us a call to receive a FREE estimate, so we sent one of our Design Specialists, Shane Nephew, to his home to inspect the situation and provide a solution. Mike was pleased with the proposal that Shane developed, so they set a time to have the new sump pump installed.

Our production team removed the old sump pump and installed our SuperSump sump pump. The SuperSump is engineered to help keep the basement dry and healthy for extended periods of time, even in times of heavy water intrusion. It is capable of pumping 2,200 gallons of water per hour out of the home. Mike was pleased with how quick the installation was, and he now has peace of mind that his basement will remain a dry, clean space.

A homeowner in Hopkins, MN, grew concerned regarding the status of their sump pump system. If the sump pump fails, it could lead to substantial issues. The homeowners began searching for the best waterproofing company in their area. After seeing the highly rated and reviewed American Waterworks, the homeowner decided to call our Appointment Center and sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the appointment was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Dylan. After he arrived, Dylan completed the in-depth estimate of the sump pump and basement status. Dylan determined that the sump pump needed to be replaced. Following his diagnosis, Dylan suggested a solution that would replace the sump pump and waterproof the affected room. After hearing Dylan's suggestions, the homeowners knew that this was their best option and agreed with his plan. The suggested plan was then directed to the assigned crew and preparations began. Our Foreman, Raul, and his crew arrived at the home to begin the installation. First, the crew installed the WaterGuard on the perimeter of the basement room. Once the WaterGuard was installed, the crew could remove the old sump pump and replace it with the SuperSump. On the outside of the home, the crew installed the IceGuard on the discharge line. Finally, the crew completed the project by installing CleanSpace on the basement walls. The crew finished the installation and cleaned up their materials. The homeowners were impressed with the job well done by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to provide another homeowner peace of mind.
