Before & After Photos

Jamie B. of Dakota, MN had water seeping into their basement, and they wanted to install a system that would solve their water problems. They got in contact with our office line and scheduled a FREE estimate with one of our Design Specialists. Our Design Specialist went to their home, looked through their basement, and examined all the water leaks. After a thorough inspection, our Design Specialist proposed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier and our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain. Jamie was impressed with the products and their warranties, so they moved forward with the project and got a date scheduled for the installation. 

Our Foreman and his production team began the installation by jackhammering out the concrete of the basement floor perimeter, forming a waterway trench. Our team installed our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain in the trench, which is made to collect water leakage from basement walls, prevent water and mud clogs, and it has easily accessible service ports for annual maintenances. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier, which is made to prevent mold and humidity, act as an extra wall protectant, and give the basement a neat and bright finish. To finish the project, our team filled the open-floor gaps with rock and pea gravel and applied a new layer of concrete over them to ensure the space was neat and tidy. Jamie was satisfied with the work that was done and was beautified by the transformation! 

Emily S. in Sumner, IA was suffering from a wet basement. Every time they experienced a heavy rain, they were left with a frustrating mess in their basement. She found American Waterworks in the phone book and decided to contact us for a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist, Mike Radosevich, was able to develop a long-term solution to waterproof her basement. 

Our production team installed a full perimeter of our WaterGuard drainage system and our TripleSafe sump pump. Water is now properly guided through the drainage system, into the sump pump, and then expelled from the home through the discharge line. Since the installation, her basement has been a dry and healthier space!

A homeowner in Hixton, WI was tired of dealing with the sunken walkway in front of their garage. The concrete had sunk over 3 inches and it created a large trip hazard. They saw a commercial for American Waterworks and gave us a call. They were pleased to learn that PolyLevel could raise their concrete and that it is a more efficient and affordable alternative to traditional concrete repair.

One of our PolyLevel experts, Jared Wroblewski, drilled small holes into the concrete slabs where the PolyLevel foam would be injected. He then injected the foam until the cement was once again level with the garage. Lastly, he filled the cracks of the concrete with our Nexus Pro sealant, and the job was the complete. The process only took a couple of hours, and now the homeowner does not have to worry about sinking concrete for years to come!

A homeowner in Hixton, MN, was distressed after discovering water sitting on their basement floor. Wanting someone to visit their home immediately, the homeowner frantically looked for a solution. After hearing about our quick response time, the homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. After arranging the appointment with our Appointment Specialist, the homeowner prepared for Mac, one of our Design Specialists, to arrive. Once Mac arrived, he began his investigation to find the source of the issue. When Mac completed the inspection, he determined that the entire basement needed to be waterproofed, and the foundation needed to be stabilized. Mac told the homeowner about these findings and provided them with a recommended plan. The homeowner agreed with these recommendations and production began. Once a crew was assigned, they traveled to the home to start production. After they arrived, they began by installing the WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. Once the WaterGuard was installed, the crew shifted their focus to digging a feedline to connect to the newly installed TripleSafe sump pump. Finally, the crew moved their focus to installing CarbonArmor strips along the north wall. After all the products were installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home.

Noland H. in Calmar, IA had an unfinished basement with a dirt floor. He had water seeping up through the soil and through the limestone foundation. It was his goal to remodel the home, but he knew he needed to waterproof his basement before doing so. A few of his neighbors recommended that he contact American Waterworks, so he called us for a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialist, Pete Wangen, went to his home to inspect his basement and design a solution. Noland liked our waterproofing products and enjoyed working with Pete, so he decided to move forward with the installation.

Our production team installed a full perimeter of our WaterGuard drainage system, a TripleSafe sump pump, and our CleanSpace vapor barrier along the basement walls. The combination of these waterproofing products has made Noland’s basement a dry, brighter and healthier space. Noland is happy he chose to protect his basement before starting the remodel.
