Before & After Photos

Les K. in Rockwell, IA was concerned about the amount of water seeping into his basement after heavy rains and snow melt. It started causing serious damage to his home and making it a musty, unhealthy space. He contacted American Waterworks for a FREE estimate, and our Design Specialist, Pete Wangen, proposed a permanent solution. Les approved of the plan and moved forward with the installation date. 

Our Foreman, Dylon VanCanneyt, and his crew started the project with installing 42 feet of our WaterGuard drainage system and our SuperSump sump pump. Our waterproofing system is backed by a lifetime warranty, so Les has peace of mind that he chose the right solution to protect his basement.

A homeowner in Byron, MN contacted American Waterworks after noticing their cement pad in front their 3 stall garage needed to be lifted about 2.5 to 3 inches.

A homeowner in Byron, MN, was cleaning their basement when they discovered the bottom panels of their walls were damp. Concerned by this discovery, the homeowner wanted to find a solution fast! The homeowner did an online search and came across our website. Impressed by the many services we offer, the homeowner knew we would have a solution for them. The homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate online and prepared for the arrival of Darin, one of our Design Specialists. Once Darin arrived, the homeowner explained their issue and he began inspecting the basement. Darin completed the estimate and determined that the basement needed to be fully waterproofed. After explaining what was happening in their home, Darin recommended installing the WaterGuard around the basement perimeter. The homeowner agreed with Darin's recommendations, so production plans were sent to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Kiko, and his crew made their way out to the home to complete the project. Kiko and his crew began by prepping the basement for production. Once the basement was ready, the crew installed the WaterGuard around the entire perimeter. Additionally, the crew dug a feedline so it ties into their current sump system. After the WaterGuard was placed and covered, the crew put the basement back together. The homeowner was delighted to know their basement was properly waterproofed. American Waterworks is glad to provide another homeowner peace of mind. 

Our client in Mason City, IA discovered her basement would flood after it rained. After a free inspection by American Waterworks, we discovered that the water was entering through their Egress Window.  We replaced their old window with a Everlast windows, which not only stopped the water from entering the basement but is more energy efficent then the old one.

Kevin S. in Mason City, IA contacted American Waterworks because he was tired of dealing with standing water in his basement after heavy rains and snow melt. Being a previous customer, he knew the crew at American Waterworks would take care of him and provide the best solution. He met with our Design Specialist, Dylan Woitas, who evaluated the situation and worked side-by-side with Kevin to create a unique plan for his home. 

Our Foreman, Arturo Mares, and his production crew were successfully able to waterproof Kevin’s basement by first, removing the concrete around the perimeter of the basement and laying our WaterGuard drainage system. Next, they installed our recommended TripleSafe sump pump. Now, water is properly guided through the WaterGuard to the sump pump, which is then expelled from the home through the discharge line. Lastly, they completed the project with installing our Fomax Wall Insulation Panels. Foamax provides comfort and energy bill savings, while making the walls look clean and bright. Kevin's peace of mind has been restored, knowing his basement will remain dry!
