A homeowner from Eau Claire, WI, was heading down into her basement one day when she swore she could hear the steady, unmistakable drip of water. Immediately concerned, the homeowner leaped into action to find the source. She was shocked to discover that the water was flooding in through the basement walls. She had no idea who to contact about a basement flooding in Eau Claire, WI. She took to the internet and eventually came across our website. She was impressed with the reviews we had done in the area and decided to sign up for her FREE estimate. Several weeks later, Mac C, one of our Design Specialists, headed out to the home. After inspecting the faulty basement, he was ready to make his recommendations as to how we could help. First, Mac wanted to install our WaterGuard drainage system. This unique French drain gets installed below the basement floor, atop the footing of the foundation, effectively keeping it out of the 'mud zone' where other drains tend to clog. This drain works to collect water coming up through holes and cracks in the foundation and floor, giving it a channel to flow freely to a disposal site. Mac noticed that there wasn't a means of disposal for the unwanted water and recommended our SuperSump plus sump pump, an affordable yet effective solution for unwanted water in your basement. The homeowner liked the sound of Mac's plan and signed on the spot.
The day of the installation eventually rolled around and our Foreman, Francisco E, and his team arrived at the property bright and early. At the end of the project, the team had installed 27 ft of WaterGuard and 1 SuperSump sump pump. Now, our customer can confidently use her basement knowing that her water intrusion issue is in the past!
A homeowner from Eau Claire, WI, was down in her basement one day when she noticed a puddle of standing water. She was immediately disconcerted, as she didn't know what this issue could mean for her space. She took to the internet to search for 'interior basement waterproofing near me' and quickly found our website. She signed up for her FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Chuck H, was headed out to the home.
When Chuck arrived, he was directed to the basement, and he began his inspection. After concluding, he met with the homeowner to discuss his recommendations. Chuck began by saying that the homeowner did the right thing by contacting a specialist. He explained that leaky basement issues do not get better with time they get worse and are more costly to fix. Chuck first wanted to use our WaterGuard system, a unique French drain that gets installed around the perimeter of the basement, below the basement floor, but atop the footing of the foundation, keeping it out of the 'mud zone' where similar drains tend to clog. He explained that this system works to collect water coming up through holes and cracks in the floor, giving it a channel to flow freely to the proper disposal site. Chuck's second recommendation, our SuperSump sump pump, is an economical yet effective solution for ridding your basement of water and the perfect solution to finish off Chuck's plan for the basement. The homeowner was satisfied with Chuck's plan and scheduled the job on the spot.
Several weeks later, our Foreman, Lane S, and his team were headed to the home. After a long day, the team had successfully placed 40ft of WaterGuard and 1 SuperSump sump pump. Now, our customer can breathe easy knowing her water intrusion issue has been solved!

A homeowner in Greene, IA, had a hunch to check their basement following a heavy thunderstorm. Once they went downstairs, their worries were confirmed. The homeowner discovered several wet walls throughout the basement. Knowing they needed to solve the issue immediately, the homeowner began looking into "Iowa basement repair". Only one company caught their eye, American Waterworks, so they took a closer look into our company and what we offer. The homeowner was impressed with our services and products, so they decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. After the estimate was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of one of our Design Specialists, Nate. As soon as Nate arrived, he began inspecting the struggling basement and concrete. During his investigation, Nate discovered one wall was the main issue. Nate recommended waterproofing the eastern corner of the basement. The homeowner agreed with Nate's suggestions, so he passed the plans along to the office to be approved. After the office approved, they were directed to our Foreman, Jose, and his crew. Once they arrived at the home, Jose and his crew began the project by installing WaterGuard in the eastern corner of the basement. Next, the crew took out the old sump pump and replaced it with the SuperSump+. Next, the crew installed and placed the Aprilaire E100 where the old dehumidifier was located. Finally, the crew shifted their focus outside and attached an IceGuard on the outside discharge line. After all the products were installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted to know their basement was properly waterproofed. American Waterworks is happy to provide their homeowners peace of mind knowing their basement was fully waterproofed.
