Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Castalia, IA, saw that their walls were seeping water. Concerned this issue would worsen, the homeowner knew they needed to find a solution before spring. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner knew they needed to find a permanent solution. The homeowner investigated “weeping wall repair near me”. One of the first companies to catch their eye was us, American Waterworks. The homeowner took a closer look at our company and knew we were the best option for their home. Since they were already on our website, they decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once estimate details were set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Brady. Brady traveled to Castalia and began the thorough inspection of the basement. During his inspection, Brady confirmed that the basement walls were suffering from water intrusion. Additionally, Brady noticed the sump pump was acting off. Once he completed the inspection, Brady was able to provide the homeowner with a solution. After hearing Brady’s recommendations, the homeowner knew this was the best option for their home. Once the homeowner approved, Brady passed along the proposal to our Logistics team. Our Logistics team scheduled and finalized the project, then it was assigned to our Foreman, Matt. The following month, Matt and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. Matt and his crew arrived at the home to begin the waterproofing installation. First, Matt and his crew started by installing WaterGuard along the basement perimeter. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew shifted their focus to taking out the old sump pump and replacing it with the TripleSafe sump pump. After the TripleSafe was installed, Lane and his crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the efficient work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to assist its customers in keeping their basements dry and warm.

Harriet C. of Mindoro, WI had water seeping up through the floor of her basement. She had a beaver system that she wanted to be replaced for something more reliable. She called American Waterworks and had our Design Specialist, Mac, out to her home to inspect her basement and determine a solution. Harriet was confident in Chad's proposal, so she signed the contract, put down a deposit, and got a date scheduled for the installation.

Our Foreman, Tremaine and his crew broke out the concrete around the pre-existing sump pump and replaced it with our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which triples the protection, solves all three water problems in one unit, and comes with a battery backup in case of power failure. To complete the project, our crew filled the open gaps with river rock and applied a new layer of concrete over them. 

Harriet was happy with the work and had a wonderful experience with our team!

A homeowner in La Crosse, WI was looking to have her outdated wood paneling in her basement replaced with something a little more attractive and water resistant. As you can see in the before photo, the wood paneling and concrete walls do not go well together. And it looks like she may have previously had water damage in the area. 

American Waterworks replaced the outdated wall with our BrightWall basement wall panel system.  The BrightWall panels will work great in conjunction with her previously installed basement waterproofing system to keep her basement dry and comfortable. You can see in the after photo that the wall panels are durable, easy to clean and definitely brighten up her basement.

Beth K. in La Crosse, WI had been dealing with a wet basement for years. She had water seeping into her home where the floor met the wall, and it was creating a damp, and musty space. She was concerned about the damage to her home and the health implications. She did some research online and called American Waterworks for a FREE estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists to meet with Beth and inspect her home. She approved of our products and the proposal and moved forward with the project. 

Our Foreman, Cole Brinkman, and his production crew began the project by removing the concrete around the perimeter of the basement and laying our WaterGuard drainage system. Next, they installed our SuperSump sump pump in the corner. Lastly, they filled back the gaps with rock, replaced the concrete, and cleaned up their work area. Water is now properly guided through the WaterGuard to the sump pump and is then discharged from the home. Beth is happy that her basement has since remained a dry and healthy space! 

Dan B. in La Crosse, WI contacted American Waterworks after being referred to us by a previous satisfied customer. Water had been leaking into the basement for years, and he was ready to contact a professional. We sent one of our Design Specialists to meet with Dan, inspect his home, and propose a customized plan to fit his needs. 

Our Foreman, Austin Lucas, and his production crew began the waterproofing project by removing the concrete around the perimeter of the basement and through the middle of the floor to create a trench for the 124 feet of our WaterGuard drainage system and for the feed line. Next, they installed our TripleSafe sump pump. Then, they installed spray foam in the rim joists and a combination of our ZenWall and Foamax Insulated Panels on the walls for the ultimate transformation and energy bill savings. Lastly, the crew installed our SaniDry dehumidier to take care of any humidity. Dan also chose to replace his basement windows with our EverLast Windows with our WellDuct System for a cleaner and more updated look and to drain any leaking water into the perimeter WaterGuard system. The combination of these waterproofing products restored Dan’s basement, and he is glad he chose a permanent solution for his home!
