A homeowner in Calmar, IA, made an unexpected discovery in their basement. Due to the heavy thunderstorm, water snuck into their basement causing wet, muddy floors. The stressed homeowners knew they needed to resolve the issue, so they began looking for the best waterproofing company near them. After looking into "Iowa basement repair", the homeowner came across the 4.9/5 star-rated American Waterworks. The homeowner saw that we offer FREE estimates, so they called our Appointment Center to sign up for theirs. Once the estimate was set, we sent Brady, one of our Iowa-based Design Specialists. Brady arrived at the home and began his thorough investigation of the basement. While inspecting the basement, Brady saw several areas where the water could be sneaking in from. To stop the water intrusion from continuing, Brady suggested fully waterproofing the entire space. The homeowners wanted to solve the issue for good, so they agreed with Brady's recommendations. Next, Brady sent the plans to our Logistics team to build the project. Once the project was built, it was assigned to Juan and his crew to begin production. Juan and his crew traveled to the home to begin the project. First, the crew installed WaterGuard around the entire basement's perimeter. The WaterGuard is a below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. The crew installs the WaterGuard by digging channels around the perimeter of the basement floor. Once the channels are dug, the crew can go ahead and place the drainage stone in the channels. The WaterGuard is then placed on top of the stone and covered with cement. Once the WaterGuard is in place, the crew could shift their focus to removing the old sump pump and replacing it with the SuperSump+. The crew installed a feedline across the floor to connect the SuperSump+ to the new WaterGuard. Next, the crew attached CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. The CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof plastic vapor barrier that prevents humidity and mold growth. The crew installs CleanSpace by mechanically attaching them to the basement walls with plastic drilled-in fasteners. Once all the products are installed, Juan and his crew clean up their materials and leave the home. The homeowner was in awe of the excellent work completed by the crew.

A homeowner in Cresco, IA, disliked the appearance of their cracked, uneven driveway. Hoping to avoid replacing all of the concrete, the homeowner began looking into concrete repair options near them. The homeowner asked a local Facebook for any recommendations, and several members suggested working with us, American Waterworks. After taking a look at our services, the homeowner knew we were the best company for them. Next, the homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of one of our Design Specialists, Ryan. After Ryan arrived at the home, he began his detailed investigation of the concrete. Following his investigation, Ryan found that the sidewalk and garage floor were sinking due to settlement. Ryan told the homeowner of his findings and also recommended lifting the areas with PolyLevel, our polyurethane foam injection solution. The homeowner knew this was their best option, so they decided to go ahead with the plan. Ryan passed the plans along to our Logistic team and then to our Forman, Troy. Once Troy and his crew received the plans, they traveled to the home to begin the project. The PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam injection solution that restores the appearance and safety of the concrete. The crew started by strategically drilling small holes throughout the slab. Then, the crew inserts ports into those small holes. Next, the polyurethane foam is injected beneath the concrete to fill voids and raise the slabs. Finally, the holes and control joints are sealed. Once the PolyLevel injection was finished, the crew shifted their focus to filling the cracks and replacing the joints. The crew utilized NexusPro Sealant, a silicone-based sealant for joints and cracks formulated to provide long-lasting flexibility and withstand harsh weather conditions. The crew begins by drilling, smoothing, and preparing the non-absorbent backer rod filler. Then, the NexusPro sealant is inserted in the prepared crack or control joint. Finally, the cracks are detailed with a thin layer of native sand, giving the concrete a uniform, finished appearance. Once the project was complete, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was thankful for the excellent work completed by the crew.
