Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner from Brooklyn Center, MN, was growing frustrated over her leaky basement. She had a waterproofing system in place already, but she feared her old sump was having trouble keeping up, because each time it rained, her basement corners would floor. Not wanting any of the children in the home to get to the dirty water, she decided to begin her search for a MN  basement waterproofing company. When she found our website, she decided to sign up for her FREE estimate, and a few weeks later,  Ryan P, one of our Design Specialists, headed to her home.

After Ryan completed his inspection, he informed the homeowner that American Waterworks could help fix the issue. Ryan wanted to install our SuperSump sump pump. The SuperSump is an effective and economical solution to fighting unwanted water. It's engineered to help keep the basement dry and healthy for extended periods, even during times of heavy water intrusion. The SuperSump boasts a powerful Zoller 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. Ryan finished by saying that the sump pump could be connected to the existing system. The homeowner was thrilled to hear the news, and scheduled the job for several weeks later. 

The next month, our waterproofing team headed out to her home. Led by their Foreman, Kevin M, the team successfully placed a SuperSump, and attached it to the pre-existing system. Now our customer can enjoy her basement without worries of water!

During the inspection, he noticed water stains along the edges of the floors and mold growth on the walls. Then, Gary took a look at the garage and noticed large cracks along the flooring. After reporting his findings to the homeowner, Gary recommended installing WaterGuard, our drainage system, CleanSpace, our vapor wall barrier, SuperSump+, our reliable sump pump system, and IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line, to waterproof the basement.

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN, grew anxious after discovering their basement was weeping water. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner knew they needed an expert to find a professional solution. After looking into "Minneapolis basement waterproofing", the first company to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks. After reading about our previous projects, the homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, we sent one of our Design Specialists, Zac, to the home to take a closer look. The following week, Zac promptly arrived at the home and began the inspection. During the inspection, Zac confirmed that several areas were suffering from water intrusion. To prevent this issue from worsening, Zac recommended installing several waterproofing products throughout the basement. Knowing this was the best plan of action, the homeowner agreed and worked with Zac to find the best installation date. Once the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Lane, and his crew promptly arrived at the home to begin. First, Lane and his crew started by securing WaterGuard around the basement perimeter.

A Minneapolis, MN, business owner was down in the basement of the property one evening after a heavy rain and was shocked to notice several small pools of water had entered the space. He was worried about what this could mean for his property, so he quickly began looking for a Minneapolis basement waterproofing company. When he found our website, he was impressed with other waterproofing projects we had completed. He signed up for his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, Daniel R, one of our Design Specialists, was headed out to the home. 

Daniel got right to work assessing the basement. When he finished, he informed the homeowner that he was recommending two of our products, which he felt would benefit the space. First, Daniel recommended our CleanSpace vapor barrier. He explained that this 100% waterproof tarp-like material gets installed directly to the walls of the basement. It works to trap water entering through holes or cracks in the wall, directing it downward and into a perimeter, which, in this case, Daniel recommended to be our WaterGuard system. This unique French drain gets installed below the slab of the basement floor, atop the footing of the foundation, keeping it out of the 'mud zone' where similar drains tend to clog. This drain functions to collect water from the CleanSpace, as well as water coming up through holes or cracks in the floor, giving the water a channel to flow freely to a disposal site. Daniel did notice that the basement lacked a means of expelling water, so he recommended the installation of our TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe is the most reliable pump in our lineup, providing three levels of protection for your basement and peace of mind. The homeowner was thrilled with Daniel's comprehensive plan and scheduled the job for several weeks later. 

On the day of the project, our team arrived bright and early to complete the installation. Led by their Foreman, Kiko, our team installed 144 ft of WaterGuard, 90ft of CleanSpace, and 1 TripleSafe sump pump in the basement. Now, our customer can rest easy knowing his property is properly protected!
