Before & After Photos

Mark D. of Fall Creek, WI had water leaking into his basement during heavy rainstorms, causing damage to personal belongings. He got in contact with American Waterworks after being referred by one of his peers. He called our office line and requested a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist. Our Design Specialist went to Mark's house, inspected his basement, and proposed a solution. Mark got all of his questions answered and was confident in the solution, so he went ahead with the project.

Our Foreman and his team broke out the pre-existing window and replaced it with our Egress Window, which is designed to provide a safe exit out of the home, more natural light to the basement, and more liveable space. Next, our crew installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the entire wall perimeter, which is a vapor protectant designed to prevent water from seeping into the basement and save money on energy costs. To complete the installation, our Foreman provided the homeowner with a thorough walkthrough of the space and ensured his expectations were met.

A homeowner in Fall Creek, WI, knew it was about time for their annual maintenance appointment. Since they scheduled the appointment with our Design Specialist, the homeowner knew the date was approaching. The homeowner called our service coordinators to double-check the date and times and then confirmed they would be working with our Service Technician, Jack. A few weeks later, Jack arrived at the home and began the annual maintenance inspection. During his inspection, Jack noticed the sump pump was not acting right. Additionally, Jack noticed the walls were quite damaged and leaking cold air. To prevent these issues from worsening, Jack recommended installing a sump pump and CleanSpace. Trusting our excellent work, the homeowner knew they were in the best hands. The homeowner agreed with Jack's proposal and the plans were passed along to our Logistics team to approve the project. After the project was finalized, Jack traveled back out to the home to install the TripleSafe Sump Pump and CleanSpace on the unfinished basement walls. First, Jack took out the old sump pump and replaced it with the TripleSafe Sump Pump. Next, Jack attached CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. Once both products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was relieved to know their basement was properly repaired. American Waterworks is happy to provide their homeowners peace of mind. 

Scott R. in Fountain, MN had water leaking into his basement through the crack where the wall meets the floor. He decided to start looking for a waterproofing contractor and that’s when he found the American Waterworks website. He was impressed that we have been waterproofing experts for almost 30 years, so he decided to contact us for a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists, Pete Wangen, went to his home to inspect his basement and he developed a thorough waterproofing plan. Scott was happy with the proposal, so they scheduled the installation. 

Our production team removed the concrete around the perimeter of his basement floor and laid our WaterGuard drainage system. Then, we installed a TripleSafe sump pump in the corner of the basement. The WaterGuard guides water to the sump pump and then the water is pumped out of the home through the discharge line. Lastly, they replaced the concrete and installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier system which protects the basement from moisture and potential mold growth. Scott was very pleased with the result and it happy that he can now enjoy a dry, healthier basement!

A couple from Fountain, MN got in contact with us when they began to notice that water was finding its way into their basement. Wanting to fix the issue before it could worsen, they contact our office and we set them up with our FREE estimate. A few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Josh, headed out to the property to complete his walkthrough. Once he completed his inspection, he was ready to make recommendations as to how we could help the couple transform their space. First, Josh wanted to use our CleanSpace vapor barrier. He told the couple that our CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof tarp that gets applied directly onto the basement walls experiencing leakage. It works to catch water entering through cracks and holes in the foundation, leading it down into Josh's second recommendation, our WaterGuard below-floor french drainage system. Josh said that our WaterGuard is an award-winning, patented below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. Its job is to catch water and then redirect it to the appropriate disposal site. The couple agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Kiko, and his team worked to install both products. When they finished, they installed 112ft of our WaterGuard and another 112ft of our CleanSpace throughout the basement. Now our customers can enjoy their space without thoughts of water intrusion. 

Stacie C. of Chatfield, MN had water leaking through the walls of her basement. After hearing about us through a referral, she called our office line and set up a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Tim Schneider. Tim went to her home, inspected the problem, and came up with a solution. Stacie was comfortable with the project, so she went ahead and scheduled the installation date. 

Our Foreman, Dylon VanCanneyt, and his production team began the project by breaking out the concrete perimeter of the basement floor, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed 30 feet of our WaterGuard System which is made to collect water seepage from basement walls and act like an underground drain. Next, our team applied 30 feet of our CleanSpace Wall System around the wall perimeter which prevents mold, mildew, and humidity. It also provides the basement space with a neat and clean look. To complete the project, Dylon and his crew covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Stacie had a remarkable experience from start to finish!
