Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner in West Union, IA, noticed their water was not pumping out of their as much as it used to. Concerned there was a larger issue at hand, the homeowners knew they needed to find a company that would provide them with a solution. The homeowner asked a local Facebook group for any recommendations and several members recommended working with us, American Waterworks. The homeowner went to our website and was impressed with our project before and after the album. Since they were already on the website, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of Ryan, one of our Iowa-based Design Specialists. Ryan arrived at the home and began his thorough walk-through of the basement. During his investigation, Ryan determined the homeowner's sump pump required replacement. Additionally, Ryan recommended waterproofing the entire basement. The homeowner agreed with Ryan's recommendations, so Ryan passed the plans along to our Logistics team to build the project. Once the project was built, the plans were sent to our Foreman, Gabriel, and his crew to begin. Gabriel and his crew traveled to the home and started the project by installing WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. Once the WaterGuard was installed, the crew shifted their focus to taking out the old sump and replacing it with the TripleSafe Sump Pump. Next, the crew installed CleanSpace on the basement walls. The crew finished the project by installing an IceGuard on the outside discharge line. Gabriel and his crew successfully installed all the products, so they cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew, so they left a kind review. American Waterworks is happy to provide its customers peace of mind knowing their basement is safe from flooding.

A homeowner in Ossian, IA was concerned when he went down to his basement and noticed a large puddle of water that had formed on the floor.

He decided that something needed to be done to prevent further damage to the space. He contacted American Waterworks and we set him up with one of our FREE no-obligation estimates. Once we received more information on what the problem was, we sent over Design Specialist Dustin Amenda to the home. Dustin knew just how the problem had started and explained that water could easily enter through any cracks and pores in concrete floors, like the ones in the homeowner's basement.

The homeowner agreed to the plans and when one of our Foremen, Jeremiah Fischer, and his crew arrived they carefully installed the WaterGuard.
