Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Nancy K. in Riceville, IA was fed up with the water seeping into her basement. It was making the space damp and musty, and she was concerned about the health implications. She contacted us for a FREE estimate after seeing one of our commercials on TV. We sent our Design Specialist, Rick Weber, to meet with Nancy, evaluate the situation, and propose a customized solution for her home. She approved of the plan and moved forward with the installation. 

Our Foreman, Kiko Pena, and his production crew got to work and began the waterproofing project by first removing the concrete around the perimeter of the basement to make a trench for our WaterGuard drainage system. Next, they installed our recommended TripleSafe sump pump, spray foam insulation in the rim joists, and Foamax insulated panels on the walls. They completed the project with the installation of our SaniDry XP dehumidifier to take care of any humidity. The combination of these waterproofing products ensure Nancy’s basement will stay healthy, clean, and dry! 

Dean F. of Riceville, IA had water in his basement and he wanted to get it looked at before it got any worse. He called American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Josh. Josh went to Dean's home, took a look at the water problems, and offered some options for Dean that would fit his needs and budget. He was confident in Josh's presentation and proposal, so he went ahead with the repairs and scheduled a date for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Aaron, and his production team began the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which prevents water clogs, collects water seepage from basement walls, and works hand in hand with the sump pump in order to pump water out of the basement quickly and efficiently. To complete the project, our team filled each floor gap with pea gravel and applied new concrete over it. The project went great and Dean was happy with the work!

A homeowner in Plymouth, MN had been enjoying in his basement space and the fireplace when he noticed a small puddle of water that had formed. He didn't hesitate to make a call to the place he knew would help him out in this situation: American Waterworks. Our website informed him of our FREE no-obligation estimate appointments, which he signed up for. We sent over Design Specialist Michel Ramirez to inspect the home and speak more with the homeowner. Michel discovered the water leaking would only continue and cause more damage unless a waterproofing system was installed. He explained that by installing our WaterGuard system, it would intercept the water at the perimeter of the basement and safely send it away outside of the home. The homeowner wanted the issue to be solved and agreed to the proposal. When the plans were approved, they were given to our Foreman, Jeromy Anderson, and his crew to begin preparations. They arrived at the site and carefully installed the WaterGuard drain system and covered it in concrete to keep out dirt and debris. Now this homeowner has their leak-free fireplace back and can enjoy the comfort of their basement again.

To fix this issue, our Design Specialist recommended installing our Aprilaire Dehumidifier.  Unlike store-bought dehumidifiers, ours is capable of controlling the moisture levels of a larger space. It not only removes musty smells and prevents future mold growth, but it also reduces airborne viruses and allergens. After looking over the proposal, the homeowner happily agreed and decided to have our dehumidifier installed.
