Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Mitch J. in Coon Rapids, MN had water seeping into his basement. He expressed his frustration about the problem in his basement to a friend and that friend recommended that he call American Waterworks to waterproof his basement. Mitch decided to call us for a free estimate, so we sent one of our Design Specialists, Jeremy Radtke, to his home to inspect the problem and design a solution. Jeremy worked closely with Mitch to develop a plan that was best fitting for his needs. Mitch was pleased with the proposal that Jeremy presented to him, so he scheduled a date for us to waterproof his basement.

Our production team started the installation by removing the concrete around the perimeter of Mitch’s basement, and the concrete where they needed to install the new sump pump. Then, they laid our WaterGuard drainage system around the perimeter and a feed line through the middle of the basement floor. The WaterGuard and feed line properly drain water to the sump pump, instead of the water pooling in his basement. Once the water reaches the sump pump, it is pushed through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Mitch was very pleased with the work that the crew did! He is glad he chose to invest in his home and protect his basement for the long-term.

Lori N. of Coon Rapids, MN needed an egress window installed to make a third bedroom. She found American Waterworks on HomeAdvisor, so she requested a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist, Russ, went to Lori's home, discussed where Lori wanted the egress window, and provided her with a quote. Lori was confident in the proposal, so she went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Hugo, and his crew installed our Egress Window and RockWell Window Well. This combination offers an attractive alternative to ugly window wells, while providing a safe basement egress. It also allows more natural light and fresh air, while providing a safe exit out of the basement.

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN became alarmed when he found an area of his basement carpet was wet. He inspected along the other walls of the basement and found similar issues, water leaking through and coming in at the base of the walls. Not wanting to wait any longer for the problems to worsen, he called American Waterworks and signed up for a FREE no-obligation estimate with one of our experts. We sent over Design Specialist Nick Skillman to the home to check out the basement and see what recommendations he could come up with. Nick assured the homeowner that something could be done to get rid of the current water problems and prevent future ones from happening. He explained that our WaterGuard system would be the best solution because it intercepts water at the perimeter of the basement and sends it away safely. The homeowner agreed to the plans and the project began. Foreman Jeromy Anderson and his crew arrived at the site to carry out the installation of the WaterGuard and ensured everything was working properly before leaving. The homeowner was thrilled to be rid of the water issues and thankful for our work.

In Minneapolis, MN a homeowner was concerned when she was in her basement space and noticed a good amount of water damage on the concrete floors. She was relieved that the basement was unfinished and didn't damage the space too much, but still wanted to prevent the issue from growing over time. She found the American Waterworks website in her search of waterproofing solutions and was interested in our FREE estimate services. She signed up for her own and once we received the request, sent over Design Specialist Dylan Woitas. Dylan carried out a detailed inspection of the basement space and suggested that to stop the current water intake for good, installing a WaterGuard system would be the best solution. The homeowner trusted his judgement and agreed to move forward with the process. When Foreman Arturo Mares and his crew arrived at the site, they made sure to talk the homeowner through the project and answer any questions before starting. Then, they installed the WaterGuard system, which works by intercepting water at the perimeter of the basement and sends it away safely to the sump pump. The homeowner was pleased with the results and thanked our crew for their hard work.

A homeowner in Plymouth, MN had been enjoying in his basement space and the fireplace when he noticed a small puddle of water that had formed. He didn't hesitate to make a call to the place he knew would help him out in this situation: American Waterworks. Our website informed him of our FREE no-obligation estimate appointments, which he signed up for. We sent over Design Specialist Michel Ramirez to inspect the home and speak more with the homeowner. Michel discovered the water leaking would only continue and cause more damage unless a waterproofing system was installed. He explained that by installing our WaterGuard system, it would intercept the water at the perimeter of the basement and safely send it away outside of the home. The homeowner wanted the issue to be solved and agreed to the proposal. When the plans were approved, they were given to our Foreman, Jeromy Anderson, and his crew to begin preparations. They arrived at the site and carefully installed the WaterGuard drain system and covered it in concrete to keep out dirt and debris. Now this homeowner has their leak-free fireplace back and can enjoy the comfort of their basement again.
