Local Radon Mitigation & Foundation Repair Company in Allamakee County, IA

Katie W. in Waukon, IA noticed that she had cracks in her foundation and water was seeping through the cracks into her basement. The water had started damaging her personal items in her basement, and she was concerned that the damage to her basement was only going to get worse. She started looking for a waterproofing contractor in the area and she came across the American Waterworks website. She was glad to see that we have over 29 years of experience in the waterproofing industry. She contacted us to receive a free estimate, so we sent a Design Specialist to her home to inspect her basement and design a solution. She was pleased with the proposal that we developed for her, so she scheduled the installation.

Our production team installed a full perimeter of our WaterGuard drainage system in her basement and two lateral lines through the middle of the floor. We also installed our TripleSafe sump pump system- which is our most reliable sump pump. The drainage system properly guides water to the sump pump, and from there the water is pumped through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Our waterproofing system is backed by a lifetime warranty, so Katie can rest easy knowing that she chose the right solution to protect her home for the long-term.

Matt T. in Lansing, IA noticed that the concrete on his front porch had started to sink, which was causing the stairs to slope and be uneven. He wanted to raise his concrete back to original position but didn't want to have to replace it to do so. While researching concrete repair contractors, he discovered American Waterworks and was interested to learn more about our PolyLevel solution, so he contacted us to receive a free estimate. After meeting with our Design Specialist, he was confident in our company and our solution. 

One of our concrete repair experts started the installation by drilling multiple small holes in the concrete of the front porch. He injected the polymer foam into the holes. The foam gradually expanded and started to raise the concrete. They continued this process a few times until the concrete was raised back to its original position. Lastly, they filled back the holes with concrete. Matt was thrilled to have raised steps and is glad he won't have to be concerned about his concrete for years to come! 

Todd K. of Harpers Ferry, IA had sunken and cracked concrete in his garage so he called American Waterworks to schedule a Free Estimate. We sent out our Design Specialist, Pete Wangen, to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. After a thorough diagnosis, Todd liked what Pete had to offer so he went ahead with the project. 

Our foreman, Brandon Wiskow, and his production team began the concrete repair project by injecting 108 pounds of PolyLevel between the cracks to lift the pad. PolyLevel is a foam that fills the gaps caused by poor soil and stabilizes the concrete surface. Next, our crew used NexusPro to seal the crack down the middle of the concrete, as well as the joint next to the home. NexusPro is a sealant made to provide long-term flexibility and to last through harsh weather conditions. Lastly, our production team applied 169 square feet of SealantPro which extends the overall life of the concrete and it keeps oil, gasoline, and water from causing any damage down the road. Todd was ecstatic and very happy about his new garage concrete floor! 

Tami A. of Postville, IA had water leaking through the walls of her basement so she called American Waterworks to schedule a Free Estimate. Our Design Specialist, Mike Radosevich, went to her home to inspect the issue and come up with a solution. Tami was confident with Mike's proposal, so she went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Kiko Pena, and his production crew began the installation by breaking out the concrete perimeter of the basement room to form a trench. In the trench, our crew installed our WaterGuard System, which is made to prevent water clogs and collect leaking water from basement walls. Next, our team applied our CleanSpace Wall System around the wall perimeter, which is designed to prevent any humidity or mold development from invading the basement. Lastly, our crew installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which is the best sump pump in our market and provides three levels of protection. To complete the project, Kiko and his crew covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Tami was thankful she called American Waterworks at her time of need and no longer has to stress about her basement leaking! 

Having a wet or damp basement can create more than a headache. Problems like this can cause bigger issues such as mildew, structural damage, wood rot, mold, and health problems. If you have seen any symptoms such as a wet floor, damp basement wall, standing water, musty smells, condensation, sump pump problems, etc., then you most likely have a water problem in your basement.
