American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Heather B. had water leaking into her basement and multiple cracked and bowing foundation walls. She wanted to address these problems before they got any worse, so she contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists created a thorough foundation repair and waterproofing plan to restore her basement.

Heather chose to move forward with installing our systems, so our production crew installed our WaterGuard drainage system, our SuperSump sump pump, wall anchors and PowerBraces. The project took two days, and now Heather's basement is permanently protected, and her peace of mind is restored.

Kris R. in Oelwein, IA was suffering from a wet basement. She had been dealing with this challenge for a couple of years and was ready to find a long-term solution. She contacted American Waterworks, so we sent one of our Design Specialists, Mac Cole, to her home to inspect the basement and develop a solution. She was impressed with our products and agreed with the proposal, so she set a date to have our waterproofing system installed.

Our production team installed the WaterGuard drainage system around the perimeter of the basement floor and connected it to the TripleSafe sump pump that we installed. After the drainage system and sump pump were installed, we replaced the concrete and cleaned the work area. The installation took two days to complete, but now her peace of mind has been restored and she is confident that her basement will remain dry.

Joe and Carolyn of Oelwein, IA, had begun to notice that the stairs and adjoining porch in front of their home were beginning to sink. The couple was worried that if the problem was left unresolved, the gap forming between the stairs and the home would only worsen, creating a bigger trip hazard and a bigger, and more expensive, problem to fix later down the road. They came across our services and decided to get in contact with us to see what could be done. When they called in, set them up with one of our FREE estimates, and our Design Specialist, Tim, was able to go out to the property and do a thorough inspection. Once he concluded, he was able to inform Joe and Carolyn that they were experiencing this issue because the soil beneath the slabs was sinking because of excess rain or heat, causing the soil to shrink. He recommended the couple fix the issue quickly to avoid any further issues down the line. He recommended they use our PolyLevel injection to raise the concrete back to its former state and follow up with our NexusPro to seal the joints connecting the slab and the home and to seal off any remaining holes or points of entry for water. Our Foreman, Jake, and his crew began the project by strategically drilling holes into the problem concrete slabs. Next, they injected the foam into the holes, paying close attention to the slab as it was lifted. Finally, they sealed off any remaining holes with the NexusPro. 

When the job was complete, Joe and Carolyn were happy they no longer had to worry about trip hazards forming! 

In Eitzen, MN a homeowner was tired of dealing with the large bump in between her driveway and garage. Every time she drove in and out her car would hit it and she was determined to finally find an effective solution. She went online to search "how to fix sinking driveway" and found a list of companies that specialized in concrete repair. While there were many options, the American Waterworks name stood out to her because of our positive reviews from past customers. She decided to sign up for one of our FREE estimates to learn more from an expert about how we could help her specific situation. Our Design Specialist, Mac Cole, arrived at the home and carried out his inspection of the driveway. Mac determined that the combination of our PolyLevel and NexusPro products would work to lift the sinking driveway and smooth out the surface. The homeowner agreed to the plans and was excited to move forward with the process. Later, our Foreman, Reese Rinken, and his crew went to the site to install the products and ensure the homeowner was happy with the results before heading out.

Cheryl M. of Maynard, IA had a single-paneled, steel-framed window in her basement that was starting to rot. Our Service Technician, Darin, was out at her house for annual maintenance on her sump pump system. He noticed that her window was musty and flaky, so he proposed our EverLast Replacement Basement Windows. Cheryl got all of her questions answered about the product, so she signed Darin's proposal. 

Our Foreman, Hugo, and his production team began the project by breaking out the pre-existing window and replacing it with our EverLast Replacement Basement Window. These windows are vinyl-framed, energy-efficient, and have much more protection than steel-framed windows. To complete the installation, Hugo applied a special sealant around the window, which keeps moisture out and helps prevent any future flooding. Cheryl was happy with the work that was done!
