Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Jes K. of Belle Plaine, MN had water leaking from her basement window, making her consider getting a new window replacement. One of her local contractors recommended American Waterworks for the repairs. She called our office staff and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Chad Johnson. Chad went to her home, inspected the window, and came up with a solution. Jes approved of the proposal and went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Jesus Covarrubias, and his crew cut out the window and replaced it with our EverLast Basement Window, which is designed to replace any rotting, wood-framed windows. It also gives the room a very neat appearance. Jes was happy with the replacement and loved the transformation! 

A homeowner in Champlin, MN, noticed water stains on their cement basement floors. Wanting the issue resolved, the homeowner began looking for a solution. During their search, the homeowner saw our impressive reviews. The homeowner decided to sign up for our FREE estimate on our website and awaited the arrival of one of our Design Specialists, Jesse. When Jesse arrived at the home, he began his in-depth analysis of the basement. Jesse found that the edges of the home were where the water was seeping in. To stop the leaking, Jesse suggested that the basement be fully waterproofed. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner agreed with Jesse's suggestions. Once they received the stamp of approval, the plans were directed to our Foreman, Crescencio, and his crew. When they arrived, Crescencio and his crew began by installing the WaterGuard in the northeast corner of the basement. After the WaterGuard was installed, the crew installed the SuperSump in the closet. Finally, the crew installed an IceGuard on the outside discharge line. After all the waterproofing products were installed, the crew cleaned up the materials and left the home. The homeowner was given peace of mind knowing their basement was properly waterproofed. American Waterworks is happy to waterproof their customers' basements. 

A homeowner in Champlin, MN, began hearing odd noises coming from their basement. Unsure of the source, the homeowner searched throughout their basement. Finally, the homeowner found that the source of the sound was their outdated sump pump. Worried about the long-term effects this could have, the homeowner began looking for a professional solution. Unsure of who to work with, the homeowner asked a friend who had similar issues in the past. Their friend recommended working with us, American Waterworks. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. After their estimates were set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of one of our Design Specialists, Nick. Once he arrived, Nick introduced himself to the homeowner and began inspecting the status of the sump pump. Nick wrapped up the inspection and determined that the sump pump needed to be replaced. Additionally, Nick recommended installing WaterGuard and attaching CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. The homeowner agreed with Nick's suggestions and the plans were sent to the office for approval. Once they were approved, they were sent to our Foreman, Diego, and his crew. Diego and his crew started the project by taking out the old sump pump. Once the old sump pump was removed, the crew dug channels and put the WaterGuard into place. Next, they secured the SuperSump+ into place and tied it to the WaterGuard system. Finally, the crew attached CleanSpace to the walls. Once all the products were installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was grateful for the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to assist its customers with their sump pump issues.  

Danielle O. in Excelsior, MN had water leaking into her basement causing damage to her carpet, floors, and home. She tired of dealing with a wet basement and was concerned about the health implications it could cause, so she contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists, Ryan Powell, went to her home to inspect her basement and design a unique solution to fit her needs. Danielle was pleased with the proposal and was eager to have the waterproofing system installed, so she scheduled the installation.

Our Foreman, Matt Zeller, and his crew installed 61 feet of WaterGuard around the perimeter of the room and a SuperSump sump pump in the corner. They also installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier along the walls to protect the room from moisture and potential mold growth. The WaterGuard properly drains water to the sump pump and from there, the water is pumped through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Danielle is pleased that her basement is now a dry, healthier space and she is glad she chose to invest in the long-term protection of her home.

Ave, a homeowner from Bethel, MN, reached out to our team because she was having issues with water continually leaking into the basement around the edge of the floor. The moisture along the walls was concerning to her, and so she wanted an expert to look at the situation and provide a FREE estimate.

We sent one of our Design Specialists, Shane Nephew, to evaluate the situation and propose a unique solution for her home. After the inspection, Shane recommended a combination of our waterproofing products. Ave approved the plan and moved forward with the project.  

Our Foreman, Lane Schlobohm, and his crew arrived at the home and promptly got to work. The team began the waterproofing project by removing the concrete around the perimeter of the basement floor to create a trench. Then, they laid the WaterGuard in the trench. The wide-open design of this drain helps it resist clogs, while a removable lid allows for easy access and maintenance. Our drain system is custom-designed to protect and help keep your basement dry all the time! The team then installed a SuperSump sump pump. They filled the gaps with rock and replaced the concrete around the sump pump and over the WaterGuard. Water now properly drains to the sump pump through the WaterGuard. The water is then expelled from the home through the discharge line. Ave's peace of mind has been restored, and she can now enjoy a dry, healthier basement for years to come!
