Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Leo S. in Stoddard, WI had water leaking through his wood foundation into his finished basement. Unfortunately, the water had caused damaged to his drywall and flooring. He contacted American Waterworks after seeing one of our commercials on TV, and we sent one of our Design Specialists, Pete Wangen, to his home to provide him with a free estimate and unique waterproofing plan. He liked the thorough plan that Pete developed, so he scheduled the installation.  

Our Foreman, Cory Sather, and his production crew removed the damaged portion of the drywall and then removed the concrete around the perimeter of the basement floor to create a trench for our WaterGuard drainage system. They laid the WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement, so the water will be properly guided to the sump pump. Next, they filled back the gaps around the WaterGuard with rock and replaced the concrete. Then, they installed the EverLast half-wall restoration system. This wall system includes metal studs and an inorganic, mold-resistant wall product that replaces the bottom 32" of the drywall. This is a permanent solution for water-damaged dry wall! Leo’s peace of mind has been restored and he is enjoying a dry, healthier basement!

A homeowner in Waukon, IA, discovered large pools of water throughout their basement. Worried by this finding, the homeowner frantically searched for a company to solve this issue. After hearing about our fast service, the homeowner called our Appointment Center to sign up for their FREE estimate.

During his inspection, Rick discovered water was rapidly leaking into the basement. Rick knew this issue needed to be addressed immediately, so he suggested installing a new drain system around the basement perimeter. The homeowner wanted the issue resolved, so they agreed with Rick's recommendations. When they received the stamp of approval, the plans were sent to our Foreman, Jeromy, and his crew. The crew arrived at the home and started by installing the WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew dug a feed line across the floor to tie into the new sump pump, the SuperSump+. Once all the products were installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the excellent work done by the crew.
