Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Long Lake, MN, noticed water stains throughout their basement. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner knew they needed to find the source of the issue. The homeowner began looking for the best waterproofing company near Minneapolis. After asking a local Facebook group chat, the same name kept getting brought up, American Waterworks. The homeowner went to our website and took a closer look at our company. After seeing our impressive projects and reviews, the homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Nick, to the home to complete the inspection. After Nick arrived at the home, he introduced himself to the homeowner and began his detailed walkthrough of the home. Nick completed the inspection and determined the basement needed to be properly waterproofed. Nick recommended a solution that would solve the water intrusion issues. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner agreed. The plans were sent to the office for approval, and then to our Foreman, Deigo. Deigo and his crew made their way to the home and began the project preparations. First, the crew installed WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. Next, the crew took out the old sump pump and replaced it with the SuperSump+. Following the sump replacement, the crew attached an IceGuard to the outside discharge line. Finally, the crew installed an Aprilaire E70 in the home. Once all the products were successfully installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was in awe of the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to waterproof another homeowner's basement.

The plans were sent to the assigned crew and job preparations began.  Our Foreman, Raul, and his crew arrived at the home to begin the project. First, the crew started by installing the WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. After the WaterGuard was properly placed, the crew dug a line across the basement to insert the feedline. Then, the crew removed the old sump pump and replaced it with the SuperSump+. On the outside of the home, an IceGuard was attached to the outside discharge line. Finally, the crew installed CleanSpace on all the basement walls. The crew cleaned up any excess water and materials. The homeowners were beyond thankful to know their basement was fully waterproofed. American Waterworks is happy to make another homeowner's basement dry again. 

A business owner from Fairmont, MN, was facing a serious issue with his basement. Whenever it rained, he could see water entering the space through holes in the wall, slowly running down the wall and leaving him with a headache. He was unsure of who to turn to for this issue, so he began to look for Fairmont, MN basement repairs. When he found our website, he found that he was impressed with other work we had done in our area, so he signed up for one of our FREE estimates. Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Ryan P, was headed out to the home. 

When Ryan arrived, he got right to work assessing the space. Upon completion, he was ready to make his recommendations for the next steps. First, Ryan recommended our TrenchDrain system, explaining that the TrenchDrain resembles half of a basement drainage pipe, with a grated opening fitted snugly on top. The grate is flush or slightly below the floor, eliminating any tripping hazard. It is uniquely designed to span doorways, hatchway entrances, and similar entryway doors. Any water passing over the drain is collected through the openings and redirected to your sump pump. Ryan had noted that the space lacked a sump pump, so he recommended our SuperSump plus system, an economical, yet effective, choice for ridding a basement of unwanted water. The homeowner agreed and scheduled the job for some time later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Chris N, led his team through the successful installation of 1 SuperSump plus, and 12 ft of TrenchDrain. Now, our customer can rest easy knowing his basement is protected from unwanted water! 

A homeowner in Cologne, MN, found that water was seeping between the cracks of their blocks in the basement. Concerned by this finding, the homeowner searched for the best waterproofing company in their area. After hearing positive reviews from their neighbors, the homeowner decided to sign up for American Waterworks' FREE estimate. After finalizing the appointment, one of our Design Specialists, Eric, traveled to the home to inspect the possible damages. After his detailed investigation, Eric alerted the homeowners that their basement needed proper waterproofing. Eric provided a recommended solution to the homeowners to solve their water issues. Knowing this would be a long-term solution, the homeowners agreed to Eric's recommendations. 

Our Foreman, Arturo, and his crew traveled to the home and began installing the recommended waterproofing products. First, the crew installed the WaterGuard around the majority of the perimeter of the basement. Once the WaterGuard was installed, a feedline was installed across the basement floors. Next, the crew installed the TripleSafe Sump Pump and IceGuard to tie into the existing system. The crew installed all the waterproofing products and left the basement nice and dry. The homeowners were thankful they had a proper waterproofing system installed in their basement. American Waterworks is pleased to assist another valued customer.

Ruth O. in Mound, MN was suffering from water leaking in to her basement. She had been dealing with the problem for quite some time now and was tired of dealing with it. After researching local waterproofing company’s, she got in touch with the waterproofing experts at American Waterworks. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Chad Johnson, to her home to provide her with a solution and a free estimate. Chad worked with Ruth to develop the right waterproofing plan for her and her home. She liked the proposal that Chad developed, so she scheduled a date for our production team to install the waterproofing system.  

Our crew installed our WaterGuard drainage system around the stairs, where the water was leaking in. Then, they installed a SuperSump sump pump and a discharge line to the outside of the home. The water is now properly guided through the drainage system to the sump pump. Then, the sump pump pushes the water through the discharge line and the water is expelled from the home. Our waterproofing system is backed by a lifetime warranty, so Ruth now has peace of mind that her basement will remain dry and that she chose the right solution.
