Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Peter, a homeowner in Saint Stephen, MN, was searching for solutions to his basement issues. With no sump pump in the home, combined with water entering the basement and cracking in his garage floor, he needed help. That's why he decided to call American Waterworks for his FREE estimate. Our crews of waterproofers are experienced, well-trained professionals that work in basements and crawl spaces every day. The experts at American Waterworks have seen it all, and they know just what needs to be done to keep your space dry all the time! Shortly after the appointment was scheduled, our Design Specialist, Shane, headed out to the property. 

Following a thorough inspection, Shane gave his recommendations to Peter, suggesting that he invest in our WaterGuard system as well as our SuperSump Pump. Peter agreed, and our crew got to work.

Our Foreman, Lane, and his crew, headed out and started making Peter's home a drier, safer place to live. First, they started with our WaterGuard, a patented below-floor drain that rests in a drainage bed on top of the foundation footing. This particular system is typically used in basements and is the premier choice for basement waterproofing as it is installed below the floor but rests atop the foundation, keeping it out of the "mud zone," making it harder to clog. It is engineered to help keep the basement dry and healthy for extended periods, even during heavy water intrusion. Next, the team implemented our The SuperSump®, which includes a powerful Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement. Peter was pleased with the results and glad his basement is now a dry, healthy space. Are you having water problems in your basement?

Reeny and Maureen of Eden Valley, MN had water leaking through the floor of their unfinished basement and they wanted to get it fixed before it became a bigger problem. They did some research on Google and came across American Waterworks and our basement waterproofing repairs. They called our office line to set up a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Dylan Woitas. Dylan went to their home to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. Reeny and Maureen were confident with the proposal, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Edgar Miranda, and his production team began the project by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our crew installed 64 feet of our WaterGuard Drainage System. Our WaterGuard is one of the most efficient waterproofing repair products. It acts as an underground drain, collects water from basement walls and prevents water clogs. To complete the project, Edgar and his team covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Reeny and Maureen were happy with the work and no longer have to worry about water leaking into their basement!

Dylan went to Maryjane's house, carefully inspected her basement, and drew up a solution that would fit her needs. Maryjane was confident in the solution so she went ahead with the project.

John S. of Worthington, MN had water leaking into his basement and cracked foundation walls, making him feel nervous about water moisture and the structural build of his home. He did some research online and came across American Waterworks. He called our office staff and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Eric Hazelton. Eric went to his home, examined the problems, and came up with a solution that fit his home repair needs. John was confident in Eric's proposal, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his production team began the project by cutting out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which is made to prevent water clogs, serve as an underground drain, and collect water leakage from basement walls. Next, our crew installed our CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier, which is made to prevent humidity and mold build-up, cover any holes or divots, and provide the room with a neat and clean appearance. Lastly, Juan and his team installed our foundation repair PowerBraces. Our PowerBraces are made to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. PowerBraces can be tightened over time to make bowing or tilting walls straighter and more vertical. To complete the project, our team covered the open floor gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. John was thrilled with the project! 

A homeowner in Worthington, MN, discovered water damage in their basement. Wanting to get ahead of the issue, the homeowner looked for a solution. The homeowner did a quick Google search and came across our website. After reviewing our award-winning waterproofing services, the homeowner knew we were the company for them. The homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate on our website. When the estimated appointments were made, the plans were sent to our Foreman, Jeremiah, and his crew. When they arrived at the home, they began by installing the WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. Once the WaterGuard was installed, the crew removed the old sump pump and replaced it with the SuperSump+. The crew connected the WaterGuard and SuperSump+ with a feedline. To conclude the installation, the crew installed the IceGuard on the outside discharge line. After all the products were installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was relieved to know their basement was properly waterproofed. American Waterworks is happy to keep another basement dry.
