Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Jillian and Nathan of Taylors Falls, MN had water leaking through the floor of their basement, along with musty smells and damaged walls, causing them to worry about the state of the home. Our office staff contacted them and set the pair up with a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Rick. Rick went to the home to inspect the problem and devise a solution. Rick proposed they invest in our waterproofing solutions to properly address and resolve the issues. Jillian and Nathan were comfortable with the proposal and went ahead with the solution.

Foreman Raul and his crew headed to the property to begin implementation. First, they began by clearing debris and readying the spaces for installation. They then installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier to address water Issues. CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof plastic barrier installed right onto the problem walls, and works to catch water entering the space through cracks and holes in the wall. It is attached to the walls with plastic fasteners so it never falls. It also prevents any humidity from invading the walls and gives the basement and clean and bright appearance with a 25-year warranty; this also reduces the home's chances of being exposed to radon. Next, the team worked on our WaterGuard System, which serves as an underground drain, collects water from basement walls, and prevents water clogs. Along with that, they installed a TripleSafe Sump Pump System which has three levels of protection to solve all water problems a homeowner may experience. Along with the TripleSafe Sump Pump is a battery backup that helps in cases where power is lost in a home, then the battery will keep the pumps draining any excess water build-up. Finally, our team added an Aprilaire dehumidifier, which creates healthy air and can reduce the number of viable viruses in the air to less than 1% in two days' time when set to 50% relative humidity. 

The pair was happy with the work and had a great experience with our production crew! If you are experiencing a similar issue, please give us a call and claim your FREE estimate today!

Jamie and Pat B. of Prior Lake, MN had water leaking into their unfinished basement, causing them to feel nervous living in their own home, so they went to their local home show to find contractors that could help them. They came across our booth and talked to our Design Specialist, Ryan Powell, about our waterproofing products. Jamie and Pat decided to have Ryan come out to their home for a FREE Estimate. After a thorough inspection, Jamie and Pat were comfortable with Ryan's proposal, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Cory Sather, and their production team started the installation by breaking out the concrete perimeter of the basement, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed 42 feet of our WaterGuard System, which is designed to collect water seepage from basement walls and act like an underground drain. Next, we applied 42 feet of our CleanSpace Wall System around the wall perimeter, which is made to prevent mold and humidity and acts as an extra support system. To complete the project, Cory and his team filled the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Jamie and Pat could not believe the installation only took a day. They had a remarkable experience from start to finish! 

Nicholas H. in Savage, MN had water leaking into his basement during heavy rains and when snow melts. The water was starting to pool in the laundry room and their old sump pump had failed. He saw an advertisement for American Waterworks in one of the local newspapers and he was glad to see that we are experts in waterproofing. He gave us a call and we sent one of our Design Specialists, Chad Johnson, to his home to give him a FREE estimate. Chad established that the best solution was to install a full perimeter of our WaterGuard drainage system and a SuperSump sump pump. 

Nicholas was eager to get his basement waterproofed, so he set an appointment to have the system installed as soon as possible. Our production crew installed the WaterGuard drainage system around the entire perimeter of the basement, which guides any water seeping in directly to the newly installed sump pump. The sump pump then discharges the water outside of the home. Our waterproofing system is backed with a lifetime warranty, so it is guaranteed to keep his basement dry. Nicholas is glad he invested in a long-term solution to protect his home.

Debbie J. of Chisago City, MN needed a new basement window and window well cover. She found American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Russ. Russ went to Debbie's house, inspected the window and the space he had to work with, and proposed our Egress Window and RockWell Window Well. Debbie was confident in both products, so she signed the contract and got a date on her schedule for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Raul A., and his crew installed our Egress Window first, followed by our RockWell Window Well. Our Egress is large enough to allow a safe exit from the basement, it provides more natural light to the room, and it makes the basement feel larger and more inviting. Our RockWell offers a nice alternative to ugly, rotted window wells. They also provide a safe exit out of the home, they are a one-piece construction product, and they are a beautiful stone texture that looks good with landscaping. 

We provide FREE estimates for basement waterproofing, foundation repair, crawl space repair/encapsulation, radon testing/mitigation, and concrete repair/lifting. Contact us today to schedule yours! 

Marvin S. of New Prague, MN wanted an Egress Window installed in his basement, so he called our company and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Ryan. Ryan went to Marvin's home, inspected his space for an Egress Window, and provided him with a bid. Marvin was confident in the proposal, so he moved forward with the project. 

Our Foreman, Lane, and his crew began the install by breaking out the space for the window. Once that was completed, our crew went about the Egress Window installation. Lastly, our crew installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier alongside the entire wall to prevent water from coming in and to save money on energy costs. Our Egress Window provides light and fresh air to the room while providing a safe exit out of the basement. 

Marin was very happy with the work and said that our crew did a great job!
