Strawberry Point, IA's Devoted Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair Contractor

After the summer storms, a homeowner in Strawberry Point, IA, knew it was time to have their basement properly waterproofed. The homeowner looked into "basement waterproofing free estimate", and one of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks. Impressed with our stellar ratings and reviews, the homeowner knew that we were the ideal company for their project. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Brady. A few days later, Brady promptly arrived at the home to begin the thorough inspection of the basement. During the appointment, Brady noted the small room next to their living room was experiencing water damage. To prevent the issue from worsening, Brady recommended waterproofing the entire space. First, WaterGuard would be secured around the basement perimeter. WaterGuard is a below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. The crew installs the WaterGuard by digging channels around the perimeter of the basement floor. Once the channels are dug, the crew can go ahead and place the drainage stone in the channels. The WaterGuard is then placed on top of the stone and covered with cement. Once the WaterGuard is in place, the crew would shift their focus to removing the old sump pump and replacing it with the TripleSafe Sump Pump. Finally, the project would be completed by securing CleanSpace on the unfinished basement walls. CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof plastic vapor barrier that prevents humidity and mold growth. The crew installs CleanSpace by mechanically attaching it to the basement walls with plastic drilled-in fasteners. With this solution, any basement would be properly waterproofed.

A homeowner in Strawberry Point, IA, grew anxious after discovering their wet spots and water damage throughout their basement. Knowing they needed professional advice, the homeowner looked into several waterproofing companies in their area.

Once the estimate was made, the homeowner awaited the arrival of Ryan, one of our Design Specialists. Ryan traveled to Strawberry Point and began his thorough investigation of the basement. The homeowner showed Ryan to the basement and he noticed several signs of water damage and intrusion throughout the basement. Once he completed his inspection, Ryan was able to provide the homeowner with a solution to their waterproofing issues. The homeowner agreed with Ryan's suggestions, so he passed the plans to the office to be approved. Once approved by the office, they were passed along to our Foreman, Kiko, and his crew. Kiko and his crew traveled to the home and began the waterproofing installation. First, they installed WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. The WaterGuard is a below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. The crew installs the WaterGuard by digging channels around the perimeter of the basement floor. Once the channels are dug, the crew can go ahead and place the drainage stone in the channels. The WaterGuard is then placed on top of the stone and covered with cement. Once the WaterGuard is in place, the crew could shift their focus to removing the old sump pump and replacing it with the SuperSump+. The crew installed a feedline across the floor to connect the SuperSump+ to the new WaterGuard. Once the WaterGuard and SuperSump+ were secured, the crew attached CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof plastic vapor barrier that prevents humidity and mold growth. The crew installs CleanSpace by mechanically attaching them to the basement walls with plastic drilled-in fasteners. Finally, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home.

Homeowners of Strawberry Point, IA were interested in getting a new sump pump system installed in their basement. They came across an American Waterworks advertisement, so they called our office and requested a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist went to their home, drew out a plan for where to install the system, and proposed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System. The homeowners got all of their questions answered about the product, so they went ahead with the installation. 

Our Foreman and his crew broke out the concrete in the floor, forming a hole. In the hole, our crew installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which provides three layers of water protection and solves all three water problems in one unit. From the sump pump, our crew installed the discharge line, which is designed to discharge water out of the system to the outside of the home. To complete the project, our crew filled the open gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over them, ensuring the space was neat and tidy.
