Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Janet S. in Osceola, WI contacted American Waterworks because she was concerned about the water that was leaking into the corner of her basement, and she had a bowing foundation wall. She was tired of cleaning up after heavy rains, and she was concerned about the stability of her home. We sent one of our Design Specialists to meet with Janet, evaluate the situation, and propose a unique solution. Janet was impressed with the plan and moved forward with an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Jesus Covarrubias, and his production crew were able to stabilize the foundation wall by installing 7 Geo-Lock anchors along the wall. The wall anchors can be tightened over time to further straighten the foundation wall and pull it back to its original position. Next, the crew waterproofed the basement by first removing the concrete around the perimeter of the basement and installing our WaterGuard drainage system. Then, they installed our recommended TripleSafe sump pump and SaniDry dehumidifier. The crew finished the job with installing our CleanSpace wall vapor barrier to give the space a bright, clean look. Janet was pleased with the results, and glad she can now enjoy a dry basement! 

Anne in Lake Elmo, MN had water seeping through her basement walls. She contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate, so we sent one of our experts to her home to inspect her basement and design a solution. She was pleased with our proposal, so she set a date to have our waterproofing system  installed. 

Our production team installed a full perimeter of our WaterGuard drainage system in her basement and connected it to a SuperSump sump pump. The drainage system now properly guides any water seeping in to the sump pump. From there, the pump pushes the water through the discharge line and expels it from the home. Anne now has a dry basement and she is glad she invested in protecting her basement from water for the long term.

A homeowner in Lake Elmo, MN, noticed their sump pump making unusual noises. Concerned, the homeowners wanted to have a professional inspect their sump pump. The homeowners came across our page after looking through the many waterproofing companies in the area. Impressed by our variety of high-quality sump pumps, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the FREE estimate was made, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Ryan. Once he arrived, Ryan inspected the current sump pump and discovered it was time for a replacement. Ryan told the homeowners about their dying sump pump but recommended that the homeowners take a look at our different options. With the help of Ryan, the homeowners pick the sump pump best fit for their home, the TripleSafe Sump Pump. Once the plan of action was decided, it was then sent to the assigned crew to complete the job. Our Foreman, Jesus, and his crew received the plans and traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, the crew took out the old sump. As soon as the old sump pump was removed, the crew put the TripleSafe sump pump into place. The TripleSafe sump pump is our most reliable sump pump system and has three levels of protection for your basement and peace of mind. After the TripleSafe was secured into place, the crew installed a 40 inch buried discharge line outside the home. The crew completed the installation and then cleaned the job site. The homeowners were grateful to know they have the most reliable sump pump in their home. Ameircan Waterworks is glad to provide our homeowners peace of mind. 

James R. of Inver Grove Heights, MN had water leaking through the floor of his basement, making him nervous about his home repair needs. He went on Google, called our office line, and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Josh Schultz. Josh went to his home, examined his water problems, and came up with the solution of our waterproofing system called WaterGuard. James got all of his questions answered about the product and warranty, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Jose Flores, and his production team broke out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a trench. Inside the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which is made to prevent water clogs, collect water seepage from basement walls, and act like an underground drain. Jose and his team covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete, making the basement look neater than when they found it. 

Jennifer F. of Inver Grove Heights, MN had water leaking through her wall into her basement. She had work done by our team before so she requested another FREE estimate with our Design Specialist to bid out the cost of a thermal insulation wall. Our Design Specialist proposed our Basement to Beautiful Wall Panels for the project. Jennifer was confident in the product and its advantages, so she went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman and his crew installed 60 feet of our Basement to Beautiful Wall Panels, which is a warm, protective blanket that saves money on energy costs and prevents rotting and mold growth. Jennifer was very happy with the project and said the communication was great throughout the process.
