Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Tom, from Mound, MN, gave us a call when he began to notice water entering the basement of his home. Tom knew that if he left the problem unresolved then he would run the risk of mold or mildew accumulating in the space. When Tom called, he used his FREE estimate, which entitled him to a thorough inspection by one of our Design Specialists from our waterproofing and foundation division. Once the walk-through was over, our Design Specialist made a few recommendations as to how we could best fix Tom's situation. First, he recommended that we use our CleanSpace basement wall vapor barrier. He explained to Tom that this 100% waterproof plastic vapor barrier is used to prevent leaks and mold growth in any basement, by trapping any moisture behind the plastic barrier. Going hand-in-hand with this product, he also recommended our WaterGuard draining system. Our Design Specialist told Tom that this drainage system could be installed below the floor, but above the foundation footing of the home, and works to collect any excess water trapped behind the CleanSpace or entering through cracks in the floor, and directs said water to the appropriate place, like a sump pump. Tom agreed with the recommendations made and work began shortly after. Our Foreman, Kiko, and his crew ended up installing 81ft of our CleanSpace and another 81ft of our WaterGuard drainage system. 

When the project was complete, Tom was happy to know his basement waterproofing issues were in the past!

Brad V. of Saint Peter, MN had water issues in his basement every spring, so he finally called American Waterworks after seeing one of our company trucks driving around his area. He scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Dylan Woitas. Dylan went to his home, carefully inspected his basement leaks, and came up with a solution that fit Brad's needs. Brad was confident in Dylan's proposal, so he scheduled a date for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his production crew began the project by jackhammering out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. Inside the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain, which prevents water and mud clogs, collects water seepage from basement walls, and has easily accessible service ports for check-ups. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the basement wall perimeter. Our CleanSpace prevents mold and humidity, saves money on energy costs, and covers any uneven surfaces. To complete the installation, our team filled the open faps with river rock and applied new concrete over them, ensuring the basement looked clean and tidy.

A homeowner in Saint Peter, MN had many years of experience with water damage in their basement, so they finally gave American Waterworks a call after seeing our vehicles and yard signs around their hometown. They scheduled a FREE Estimate with one of our Design Specialists to examine their basement and design a detailed solution. The homeowner was confident in our proposal of our Basement to Beautiful Wall Panels and our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain and their warranties, so they signed the contract. 

Our Foreman and his production team started the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a waterway trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain, which serves as an underground drain, collects leaking water from basement walls, and prevents water and mud clogs. Next, our team installed our Basement to Beautiful Wall Panels around the entire wall perimeter. These wall panels provide energy savings, serve as a protective blanket, and prevent wood rot and mold growth. To complete the project, our team filled the open gaps with rock and applied new concrete over them. The homeowner was thrilled with the work and had a great experience!

A homeowner in Anoka, MN, noticed water damage throughout their basement. Knowing this could be a sign of a larger issue, the homeowner looked into "leaky basement waterproofing near me". At the top of the list stood us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided to take a closer look at our services. Impressed with our stellar ratings and reviews, the homeowner knew it was their best option. Since they were already on our website, 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, Jesse. Jesse promptly arrived at the home and began the thorough inspection of the basement. During his inspection, Jesse confirmed the basement was suffering from water intrusion. To prevent the issue from continuing, Jesse recommended installing WaterGuard and replacing the current sump pump. The homeowner knew this was their best plan of action, so they decided to go ahead with Jesse's recommendations. Next, the proposal was sent to our Logistics team to build and finalize the project. Our Logistics team built an scheduled the project for the following month. Once the project date arrived, our Foreman, Jesus, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Jesus and his crew started by installing WaterGuard throughout the basement. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew shifted their focus to taking out the old sump pump and replacing it with the TripleSafe sump pump. After the TripleSafe was secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to provide their homeowners peace of mind knowing their basement is secured. 

Sam I. of Anoka, MN was on the hunt for Egress Windows. He found us on our website and contacted us through our online chat. Sam liked what he saw on our website, so he scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Russ. Russ went to Sam's house, inspected his basement window, and provided a quote going over our Egress Window. Sam was comfortable with Russ's approach and felt confident in the product, so he went ahead with the installation. 

Our Foreman, Clay, and his crew excavated out the soil around the basement window, forming a big trench. Once the trench was formed, our crew broke out the wall to install the Egress Window. Our Egress Windows are made to add light and fresh air to the basement while providing a safe way to exit from the home. After that, our team installed our RockWell Window Well, which is a one-piece construction that allows for a safe exit out of the home in case of an emergency. To complete the project, our team backfilled the soil and ensured the yard was cleaner than when they first got there.
