Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A couple from Plymouth, MN, got in touch with us when they noticed that the lower level of their home was taking on water. They didn't want water damage to hinder any potential resale of the home, so they decided to find a contractor that could address the problem and eventually, they found our website. Impressed with other work we had done in their area, they decided to sign up for one of our FREE estimates. A few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Nick S, headed out to the home. After Nick got a good idea of the problem in the home, he was ready to make his recommendations. He recommended the installation of our SuperSump sump pump. He explained that this sump pump is an effective and economical solution. It's engineered to help keep the basement dry and healthy for extended periods of time, even in times of heavy water intrusion. It boasts a powerful Zoeller® 1/3 horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement. The homeowner liked the sound of Nick's plan, and scheduled the installation for several weeks later. When the installation date rolled around, our Foreman, Edgar, and his team installed 1 of our SuperSump sump pumps in the home. Now, our customers can rest easy knowing their home is protected!

A homeowner in Plymouth, MN, noticed a musty smell coming from his basement. Concerned he might have a water issue, he decided to look into basement waterproofing services in MN and found us. After looking through our website and becoming impressed by our reviews, the homeowner contacted us to schedule his FREE estimate.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Gary S., arrived at the home to provide a thorough inspection, answer questions, and create a proposal with the best solution for the homeowner. During the inspection, Gary noticed some water stains along the joints of the wall and the footing. For this reason, he recommended installing WaterGuard, our drainage system that collects water at the perimeter of the basement and safely sends it to the sump pump, SuperSump+, our elite sump pump system capable of removing 2,200 gallons of water per hour, and IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line that allows water to escape in sub-zero temperatures. After reviewing Gary's proposal, the homeowner happily agreed and scheduled the installation date.

In about a month, our Foreman, Jeromy A., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew installed 35ft of WaterGuard, 1 SuperSump+, and 1 IceGuard. After they were done with the installation, the crew cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

A Minneapolis, MN, homeowner was dealing with a leaky basement. Each time it rained, it seemed as though water would pool on the floor and in the corners of the basement. In the interest of protecting his home, he decided to look for Minneapolis basement waterproofing and eventually found our website. He decided to sign up for his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, Mac C, one of our Design Specialists, headed out to the home. 

Mac got right to work inspecting the basement to see what we could do. When he concluded, Mac met with the homeowner to deliver his recommendations. Mac wanted to use our WaterGuard. This French drain is designed to be installed below the floor slab, resting on top of the foundation footing. This keeps this drainage system out of the "mud zone", where drains can clog. It works to collect water entering from holes or cracks in the basement floor, giving it a channel to the appropriate disposal site, a pre-placed sump pump. Installation involves removing a section of floor around the perimeter and creating a drainage trench. Sections of WaterGuard® are then placed within the trench, resting on a bed of drainage stone, and the floor is restored. The homeowner liked the sound of the work and decided to schedule the work for some time later. 

On the day of the project, Lane S, our Foreman, led his team through a flawless installation. Now, our customer can enjoy her home knowing that that her water intrusion issue has been handled! 

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN became alarmed when he found an area of his basement carpet was wet. He inspected along the other walls of the basement and found similar issues, water leaking through and coming in at the base of the walls. Not wanting to wait any longer for the problems to worsen, he called American Waterworks and signed up for a FREE no-obligation estimate with one of our experts. We sent over Design Specialist Nick Skillman to the home to check out the basement and see what recommendations he could come up with. Nick assured the homeowner that something could be done to get rid of the current water problems and prevent future ones from happening. He explained that our WaterGuard system would be the best solution because it intercepts water at the perimeter of the basement and sends it away safely. The homeowner agreed to the plans and the project began. Foreman Jeromy Anderson and his crew arrived at the site to carry out the installation of the WaterGuard and ensured everything was working properly before leaving. The homeowner was thrilled to be rid of the water issues and thankful for our work.
