Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner in La Crosse, WI was worried about her basement when she went downstairs and noticed her floors had gone through some water damage. She didn't know what the next best step was for her basement, but knew she needed a professional's insight on the issue, so she went online to look for a basement waterproofing company. She was pleased to see that American Waterworks offered services for her area of Wisconsin because her family had a positive experience with us in the past. She decided to sign up for a FREE no-obligation estimate with us to learn more and was later greeted at her home by Design Specialist Chuck Haldeman. Chuck inspected the basement and found the water damage on the wooden flooring that the homeowner was concerned with. He explained that our WaterGuard basement drain system would be the perfect solution for her situation and it would prevent future water problems from happening. Our Foreman, Jeromy Anderson, and his crew went to the site to carefully carry out the installation of the drains and the homeowner was very pleased with the final results.

A Wisconsin homeowner was growing frustrated with the state of the basement. A few weeks prior, he had been walking around his lower level when he stepped in a wet patch of carpet. He ripped up the carpeting to find that water was seeping into his basement. Worried about what this could mean about the health of his home, he decided to search for Wisconsin basement waterproofing companies. When he came across our website, he signed up for his FREE estimate, and a few weeks later our Design Specialist, Dustin A, headed out to the property. 

Once Dustin completed his walkthrough, he met with the homeowner to give his recommendations. Dustin began by saying that the homeowner was right to get in touch with us. He went on to say that he wanted to use three of our products to address the water intrusion. First, Dustin wanted to utilize our Foamax Wall Panels.

Foamax is a polyisocyanurate foam insulation panel with a white foil finish on the front and foil vapor barrier on the back. The wall insulation panel offers multiple benefits and high-performance features such as high insulation value, creating a warmer space, brightening your basement, doesn't require the basement to be finished, and draining wall leaks to premiere drainage systems. To complement this product, Dustin recommended our WaterGuard. This modern below-floor drain catches the water directed from the CleanSpace and any seepage entering through the floor. Then, it carries the water to an appropriate disposal site, which in this case, Dustin wanted to be our TripleSafe sump pump. This pump is the most reliable system, boasting three levels of protection for your basement and your peace of mind. The homeowner liked the sound of Dustin's plan and scheduled the project to be installed several weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Jorge M, and his team ended up installing 1 TripleSafe sump pump, 165 ft of WaterGuard, and 165 ft of Foamax. Now, our customers can enjoy a warm, dry, and healthy space!

A homeowner in La Crosse WI, noticed their interior walls were cracking. Worried that this could have lasting damage, the homeowner knew they needed to find a permanent solution. Unsure who to work with, the homeowner investigated “damaged basement wall repair near La Crosse, WI”. One of the first companies to catch their eye was us, American Waterworks. After seeing our excellent product lineup, the homeowner knew we were the perfect company for the job.  Next, the homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. As soon as the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of Dustin, one of our Design Specialists. Dustin traveled to the home and thoroughly investigated the interior and exterior foundation. During his inspection, Dustin determined the foundation was beginning to settle and needed immediate assistance. Dustin recommended installing Push Piers and CarbonArmor strips to ensure the foundation walls are enforced. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner decided to go ahead with Dustin’s recommendations. Once they received the stamp of approval from the homeowner, Dustin passed the plans along to our Logistics team to build and schedule the project. Our Logistics team scheduled the project for the next month. After the date arrived, we sent our Foreman, Jesus, and his crew to begin the project. Jesus and his crew arrived at the home and started the installation. First, the crew installed Push Piers on the outside foundation. After the Push Piers were secured, the crew shifted their focus to installing CarbonArmor strips on the foundation walls. As soon as the CarbonArmor strips were secured, the crew started the WaterGuard installation. The crew secured the WaterGuard along the basement perimeter. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the excellent work completed by the crew, so they left a 5-star review. American Waterworks is delighted to assist their homeowners in repairing their homes.

Mary F. of Hokah, MN had water in her basement, causing her to worry about water moisture and structural damage, so she did some research on Google for contractors who service her area. She came across American Waterworks, so she called our office and scheduled a no-obligation, FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Mac. Mac went to her home, carefully inspected her basement, and determined the solution of our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier and our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain. Mary was confident in Mac's presentation and our products, so she signed his proposal and got a date scheduled for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Raul, and his production crew started the installation by jackhammering out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard, which is the most common basement waterproofing product that we provide for homeowners. It collects water seepage from basement walls, prevents water and mud clogs, and it has service ports that make it easy to inspect during annual maintenance. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace around the basement wall perimeter. Our CleanSpace prevents mold and mildew, gives the basement a nice, clean finish, and it covers holes and divots. To complete the installation, our team filled the open-floor gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over them. Mary was happy with the work and her experience!
