Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Benson, MN was alarmed when she was in her basement space and noticed a lot of water damage in one of the rooms. She didn't know how to prevent it from happening again, so she decided to contact an expert company for help. In her search of "basement waterproofing Minnesota," she came across the American Waterworks company website and was interested in our FREE estimate offers. She signed up for an estimate for her own basement and awaited the arrival of one of our team members. Our Design Specialist, Shane Nephew, visited the home to talk things over with the homeowner and inspect the basement area. He decided that with a waterproofing system, the basement would be back to a clean state. The homeowner agreed to the plans and once they were approved, Foreman Lane Schlobohm and his crew went to the site for installations. They installed three of our products, WaterGuard basement drain system, SuperSump pump, and CleanSpace wall vapor barrier. At the end of the process, the basement was water-free and in great condition again to the homeowner's delight.

Brad C. in Minneota, MN had water seeping into his basement and had noticed his basement was drastically colder than the rest of his home. He contacted American Waterworks to learn more about our waterproofing solutions, so we sent one of our Design Specialists, Dylan Woitas, to his home to provide him with an inspection and FREE estimate. Along with a full waterproofing system, Dylan recommended that we install our Basement to Beautiful panels to insulate Brad’s basement.

Our Basement to Beautiful wall panels are the superior choice for a dry, energy-efficient basement. They are designed with advanced SilverGlo graphite-infused foam insulation, which provides 24% more energy savings than conventional foam products. They create a warm, protective blanket around the basement that will never rot or support mold growth. Thanks to our waterproofing system and these Basement to Beautiful wall panels, Brad is now enjoying a healthier, more comfortable home, while saving money on heating costs!

Marge, U. in Pipestone, MN heard about the services we offer from one of our Design Specialists, Eric Hazelton. Marge called Eric because she was concerned about the water leaking into her basement. She had an old sump pump that was not able to keep up after heavy rains and snow melt. Eric met with Marge, evaluated the situation, and designed a unique solution for her home. Marge approved of the plan and moved forward with the project. 

Our Foreman, Cole Brinkman, and his production crew began the project by removing the concrete around the perimeter of the basement and laying 104 feet of our Waterguard drainage system. Next, the crew installed our UltraSump sump pump and battery backup system and 2 feet of our Cleanspace vapor barrier along the walls. Any water seepage coming through the wall will be directed down into the drainage system, guided to the sump pump, and then expelled from the home through the discharge line. Marge is happy with the project and her peace of mind has been restored, knowing her basement will remain dry! 

Betty J. of Pipestone, MN had water leaking through her walls, making her worry about water moisture problems and other water issues. She got in contact with American Waterworks because she already got foundation repair done by us (as shown). Our team installed our Foamax Wall Panels, which is a foam insulation that prevents water from seeping through the basement wall and saves lots of money on energy costs. It also gives the basement a bright appearance and makes it a more welcoming environment. Betty was thrilled with the work that our team did and could not believe how much of a difference it made.

Water was leaking into the Pine River Methodist Church causing water moisture, flooding hazards, and a funky smell. They called American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Chad Johnson. Chad went to the church, inspected the problems, and came up with a solution that worked for management and their budget. Management was confident in Chad's proposal and presentation, so they signed the contract, wrote out a deposit check, and got the installation project on the schedule. 

Our Foreman, Ryan Loe, and his production team began the repairs by taking back the carpet, and breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System, which is made to prevent water and mud clogs, collect water seepage from basement walls, and serve as an underground drain. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier System around the half-wall perimeter. Our CleanSpace is made to prevent mold and humidity, act as an extra wall protectant, and guide water into the WaterGuard System. Lastly, Ryan and his crew installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System in the corner. Our TripleSafe is the best sump pump we provide for homeowners, it solves all three water problems in one system, and it provides three layers of protection. To complete the installation, our crew covered and filled the open gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over it. The customer was happy with the repairs and had a great experience with our team!
