After the estimate was set, the homeowner was prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Darin. Following his arrival, Darin introduced himself to the homeowner and began thoroughly inspecting the home. During the inspection. Darin discovered that several areas of the basement were suffering from water intrusion. To prevent these issues from worsening, Darin recommended installing several waterproofing products throughout the basement. After considering their options, the homeowner knew this was their best option for their home. Next, Darin sent his proposal to our Logistics team to schedule and build the project. Once our Logistics team gave the final stamp of approval, the plans were scheduled for the following month. After the date arrived, our Foreman, Raul, and his crew traveled to the home and began the installation. First, Raul and his crew began by installing WaterGuard along the basement perimeter. Once the WaterGuard was secured, Raul and his crew shifted their focus to replacing the sump pump with the SuperSump+. After the SuperSump+ was secured, the crew began the CleanSpace installation. Following the CleanSpace installation, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted to know their basement was secure from future water intrusion.

Cara from Sargeant, MN noticed water coming into her basement at the base of the stairs. This was especially worrisome for Cara since she knew this could potentially damage her valuables. Cara contacted our Appointment Center here at American Waterworks and scheduled her FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Rick. Rick headed out to Cara's property and began a thorough inspection of the home to obtain a proper diagnosis of the home and prevent any other issues from arising. Rick proposed that the best solution to the issues she was experiencing was to invest in our WaterGuard and TripleSafe Sump Pump System. Cara agreed with the proposal and scheduled the date of installation.
Our Foreman, Crescencio, and his production crew started the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System. Our WaterGuard is a patented below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage on top of the foundation footing. It is our most commonly used drain system because of its resistance to water clogs, easy-to-access service ports, and ability to collect leaking water from basement walls.
Next up was our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which has three levels of protection to solve all water problems a homeowner may experience. Along with the TripleSafe Sump Pump is a battery backup that helps in cases where power is lost in a home, the battery will keep the pumps draining any excess water build-up. Once the job is done, the production team then places a new layer of concrete around the TripleSafe to provide a cleaner and more finished look.
To complete the project, our team covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete.
Cara was happy with the work and had a great experience with our production crew! If you are experiencing a similar issue, please give us a call and claim your FREE estimate today!
