Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Alden, MN was in his basement space when he noticed something off at the base of the walls. Upon investigation, he found some of the floor areas to be slightly damp and had already faced water damage. He knew that finding a solution sooner than later would be the best decision for his basement, and he began his searching. He looked for Minnesota basement waterproofing companies and found the American Waterworks website. The homeowner was interested in our FREE estimate appointments and decided to sign up for his own to learn more about our services. When one of our Design Specialists, Dylan Woitas, arrived at the home, he carried out an analysis of the basement and took note of where the water had entered the basement. He informed the homeowner that waterproofing the basement would be the best way to stop current incoming water and prevent future water problems. The homeowner agreed to the plans and was later greeted by our Foreman, Lane Schlobohm, and his crew. The crew installed our WaterGuard system around the perimeter of the basement and placed CleanSpace wall vapor barrier over the walls to waterproof the space. The homeowner felt good about his decision to contact us and was happy with the final results.

Priscilla P. of New Richmond, WI had water seeping through his limestone foundation, causing her to worry about the safety of her home. She called American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist went to Priscilla's home, carefully inspected the problems she was facing and determined a plan that would work for her. Priscilla was confident in the proposal of our Egress Window, so she went ahead with the project.

Our Foreman and his crew member began the installation by digging out the soil around the foundation, forming a large trench. Then, our team replaced Priscilla's degrading, wooden window with our Egress Window. This window allows in more fresh air and provides more brightness to the room. Next, our team installed our RockWell Egress Window Well, which provides a safe exit out of the home and is one-piece rigid construction. To complete the project, our team backfilled and compacted the soil. ensuring the entire space looked neater than when they found it.

Tammy R. in Hastings, MN noticed dampness in several areas of her basement that started to cause damage to the foundation and create a musty smell. She was concerned about the air quality of her home and started to do some research. She was glad to learn that American Waterworks is the leading contractor in basement waterproofing in the region and gave us a call. We sent our Design Specialist to her home to evaluate the situation and propose a unique solution to fit her needs. She approved of the plan and moved forward with the installation date. 

Our Foreman, Dylon VanCanneyt, and the production crew started the installation by removing concrete and laying 158 feet of the WaterGuard drainage system around the perimeter of the basement. Then, they installed our recommended TripleSafe sump pump and our Basement To Beautiful Insulated Wall Panels. Lastly, the crew installed our Battery Backup System to ensure lasting reliability and to keep the sump pump running efficiently and effectively. The drainage system now properly guides water to the sump pump, and from there the water is pushed through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Our waterproofing system is backed by a lifetime warranty, and Tammy is glad she made the investment to protect her home.

A customer from Hastings, MN, got in contact with us when she began to their basement was becoming drafty and cool, even in the winter months. Our customer was concerned that her home was steadily becoming energy inefficient. When she called in, we set her up with our FREE estimate, which entitled her to a thorough inspection into the issue by one of our Design Specialists. Once the appointment was scheduled, our Design Specialist headed out to the property to take a deeper look at the problem. When he completed his walkthrough, he was able to make recommendations as to how we could help remedy the issue. He explained to our customer that the water intrusion and draft could be attributed to her basement windows, as they were older and outdated. He recommended she invest in our EverLast window and SunHouse. He explained that these double-paned windows would stop water intrusion at the source. The SunHouse window well cover brings natural light in and keeps cold winter winds from blowing against the panels. The customer agreed with our recommendations and work began shortly after. 

Our construction crew, led by Foreman Tremaine, ended up installing 3 of our EverLast window wells and SunHouse window well covers throughout the basement of the home. Once work was completed, the homeowner was happy to know that her drafty and energy-inefficient worries were in the past!
