American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Nora Springs, IA, was enjoying an evening on their patio when they noticed their slabs were significantly uneven. Concerned someone could be seriously injured, the homeowner knew they needed to find a permanent solution. The homeowner went to Google and looked into "concrete patio repair near Nora Springs, IA" and at the top of the recommendations was us, American Waterworks. Once they saw our high ratings and reviews, the homeowners knew we were their best choice. Next, they signed up for their FREE estimate and waited for our Design Specialist, Romeo, to arrive. Once Romeo arrived home, he thoroughly investigated the patio and surrounding concrete. Romeo discovered the concrete was suffering from settlement and needed to be lifted. Next, Romeo proposed his plan to the homeowner and how it would benefit them. The homeowner agreed with Romeo's proposal and they were sent to our office to be finalized. Once they were approved, they were directed to our Foreman, Jordan, and his crew. After Jordan and his crew received the plans, they made their way to the home and started the project. First, the crew used PolyLevel to lift the patio back to its original state. Once the patio was lifted and leveled, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was relieved to know their patio was lifted back to its original state. American Waterworks is happy to raise its customer's concrete back to its original state. 

A homeowner in Nora Springs, IA, was inspecting their basement following a heavy rain and they noticed several water damage spots throughout. Extremely concerned about the long-term effects it would have on their home, the homeowner knew they needed to find a long-term solution. During the hunt for the perfect waterproofing company, the homeowner came across our website and saw our impressive reviews and ratings. After seeing our amazing ratings, the homeowner knew we were the best option for them and their home. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, we sent one of our Design Specialists, Brian, to take a closer look. Brian arrived at the home, introduced himself to the homeowner, and began his thorough investigation of the foundation. During his inspection, Brian confirmed the basement was suffering from water intrusion and needed to be fully waterproofed. Brian presented his proposal to the homeowner and they agreed with his suggestions. Next, Brian passed the plans along to the office, so the project could be built. After the project was built, Raul and his crew traveled to the home to begin the waterproofing installation. First, Raul and his crew began by installing WaterGuard around the entire perimeter of the basement. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew dug a feedline across the basement floor. Next, the crew took out the old sump pump and replaced it with the TripleSafe Sump Pump. After the sump pump was replaced, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was grateful for the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to ensure its customers' basements are properly waterproofed.

Sam in Arkansaw, WI had three cracked and bowing walls in his basement. He was concerned about the pressure this was putting on his foundation, and he wanted to have his walls repaired before the problem got any worse. After visiting a local home show and talking with one of our Design Specialists, he decided to have us inspect his foundation and provide him with a FREE estimate. Our Specialist recommended that we install wall anchors on two of the walls and PowerBraces on the other. Sam agreed that this was the best solution for him, so he scheduled the installation.

Our production crew installed the wall anchors by drilling small holes through the block foundation into the soil surrounding the home. Then, they dug small holes in the yard that lined up with the anchor rods, and they secured them from the outside and inside of the home with anchor plates. They tightened them as far as they would go to permanently stabilize the wall. Next, they installed the PowerBraces, which are strong steel I-beams that are secured by brackets that are drilled into the floor and the rim joists. These two foundation repair products not only permanently stabilized Sam’s foundation, but they also provide the potential for his walls to straighten back to their original position.

Kristine I. of Arkansaw, WI had severe water problems in her basement, making her worry and want to get it under control. She got in touch with our office staff and got a FREE estimate scheduled with our Design Specialist, Chuck Haldeman. Chuck went to Kristine's house, inspected her water problems, and determined a solution. Kristine was confident in his solution, so she signed the contract. 

Our Foreman, Raul Barroso, and his production team began the installation by installing our Foamax Wall Panels around the entire basement wall perimeter. Our Foamax provides comfort to the home and saves money on energy bills while making the walls look clean and bright. It also reduces condensation due to moisture protection. Next, our team installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, followed by the discharge line. Our TripleSafe provides three layers of protection, solves all three water problems in one unit, and comes with a battery back-up. Our battery back-up keeps the system running in case of a power outage or failure. The purpose of the discharge line is to allow water to escape the home without invading the foundation wall. Kristine was happy with the work that was done and had a great experience from start to finish!
