Wet Basement and Failed Sump Pump Repaired in Decorah, IA

Sarah F. in Decorah, IA was experiencing dampness in her finished basement, and her old sump pump was failing. She was concerned about the damage that it was causing to her home and was worried that the air quality was being compromised, so she contacted American Waterworks for a FREE estimate.

Our production crew got to work and installed our recommended TripleSafe sump pump. Our TripleSafe is backed by three layers of protection and is our most reliable sump pump.

Water Leaking in Basement in Decorah, IA

Rebecca S. of Decorah, IA had water leaking into her basement for several years and she wanted to get it looked at and fixed up before it got any worse. She got in contact with our office staff and scheduled a free estimate with our Design Specialist, Rick. Rick went to her home, carefully inspected the problems she was having, and drew up a solution that worked for her and her home repair needs. She was confident in Rick's proposal, so followed through with the project. 

Our Foreman, Tremaine, and his production team started the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which is made to prevent water clogs and collect water leakage from basement walls. Next, our crew installed our FoamMax Wall Panels around the wall perimeter, which makes the walls look clean, provides comfort to the home, and reduces condensation for moisture protection. To complete the project, Tremaine and his team filled the open gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over them. Rebecca was thrilled with the work and had a great experience from start to finish!
