Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Lynn and Janet P. of Mason City, IA had a wet basement and they wanted to get it waterproofed before it got any worse. They got in touch with our office staff and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist. Our Design Specialist went to their home, carefully examined their basement, and diagnosed the issues that they were having. Our Design Specialist drew up a couple of solutions that Lynn and Janet could choose and differentiate between. They got all of their questions answered about the proposal that they liked, so they went ahead and scheduled a date for the installation. 

Our Foreman and his production team began the project by jackhammering out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a drainage trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain, which prevents water clogs, collects water leakage from walls, and has easily accessible service ports in case of a service call or check-up on the system. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier, which is made to prevent humidity and mold build-up, serve as a protective and energy-efficient blanket, and cover any holes or divots in the foundation. To complete the installation, our Foreman and his team filled the open gaps with rock and applied a new layer of concrete over them, ensuring the space looked neater than when they found it. 

A homeowner in Northwood, IA, noticed their basement walls showed signs of water damage. Worried about the long-term effects, the homeowner began looking into "wet basement repair near me". One of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Brady. A few weeks later, Brady arrived at the home and started the thorough inspection of the basement. Brady confirmed that several areas were suffering from water intrusion. To prevent this issue from worsening, Brady recommended waterproofing the entire basement. Knowing this was their best plan of action, the homeowner agreed with Brady's proposal. The plans were approved, and then they were sent to our Foreman, Kiko, and his crew. The following week, Kiko and his crew traveled to the home to begin the estimate. First, Kiko, and his crew began by installing WaterGuard around the basement perimter. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew took out the old sump pump and replaced it with the TripleSafe Sump Pump. Then, the crew installed PowerBraces on the unfinished basement walls. Once the project was complete, the crew attached CleanSpace to the basement walls. Once all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew. 

A homeowner in Pembina, ND, searched for a company to inspect their current water system. While searching through many waterproofing companies, the homeowner determined that American Waterworks was the best fit. After signing up for the FREE estimate, our Design Specialist, Richie, was sent to the home to perform the inspection. Following his inspection, Richie recommended to the homeowners that the WaterGuard be installed and tied to the existing system and sump pump. The homeowner approved of the plan and the project commenced. Before the crew arrived, the homeowners agreed to remove the toilet and sink to help the project run smoothly. The crew began the project by digging channels around the basement perimeter. Once the channels were dug, the crew could put the WaterGuard in place. Next, the crew tied to the homeowner's current system and a new SuperSump pump to the WaterGuard. The homeowners were pleased that their home was properly waterproofed. American Waterworks is happy to provide another customer peace of mind.

With water coming through a wall in her basement, Amanda reached out to our team for her FREE estimate. Shortly after the appointment was scheduled, our Design Specialist, Shane, headed out to the property. Following a thorough inspection, Shane gave his recommendations to Amanda, suggesting that she invest in our waterproofing services to address the issues. She agreed and set up a time for installation. Foreman Arturo and his crew arrived at the home and quickly got to work. First, they Implemented our WaterGuard system; this particular system is typically used in basements and is the premier choice for basement waterproofing as it is installed below the floor but rests atop the foundation, keeping it out of the "mud zone", making it harder to clog. Next, the team added a powerful Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement. Our team also installed the UltraSump® Battery Backup System with the sump pump system to ensure lasting reliability. It's designed to keep your sump pump running efficiently and effectively. The UltraSump® system can pump out an excess of 11,500 gallons of water on a fully charged battery, which is enough water to fill a small swimming pool!
