Wet Basement Waterproofed in New Hampton, IA

Margaret S. of New Hampton, IA had water leaking into her basement and she wasn't sure where it was coming from. One of her peers who also did business with our company referred her to us, so she called our office and set up a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist, Josh, went to Margaret's home, carefully inspected her basement, and determined a solution that would work for her and her needs. Margaret was confident in the proposal of our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain and TripleSafe Sump Pump System, so she decided to move forward with the project. 

Our Foreman, Chris, and his production team began the project by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard, which is designed to prevent water clogs and collect water seepage from basement walls. Next, our team replaced her pre-existing sump pump with our TripleSafe, which has three layers of water protection and solves all three water problems in one unit. To complete the installation, our team filled the open-floor gaps with rock and applied new concrete over them, ensuring the space was neat and clean. 

Margaret had a great experience with our team!

Water Seeping into Basement in Harmony, MN

Don C. in Harmony, MN had water leaking into his basement and his current sump pump was not able to keep up with the amount of water seeping into his basement. He contacted us based on a referral, so we sent our Design Specialist, Mac Cole, to his home to inspect the issue and provide him with a FREE estimate. Mac developed a thorough plan to waterproof Don's basement and Don was pleased with the proposal, so he scheduled to have our waterproofing system installed. 

Our production team started the installation by removing the concrete around the perimeter of the basement floor and laying our WaterGuard drainage system. Then, they installed a TripleSafe sump pump, which is our most reliable sump pump, and replaced the concrete. Now, water that seeps into his basement is drained through the WaterGuard drainage system to the sump pump. From there, the water is pumped through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Don is glad he chose to invest in a long-term solution to protect his basement.

Harmony, MN, Basement Waterproofed

A homeowner in Harmony, MN, was cleaning their basement when they discovered a water stain along their basement footing. Alarmed by this discovery, the homeowner knew they needed a professional to inspect the extent of the damage. The homeowner knew their neighbor had similar work done, so they asked who completed their project. Their neighbor said American Waterworks and talked about the wonderful job we did. Trusting their neighbor's referral, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. After the estimate was set, we sent one of our Service Technicians, Clay, to the home. When Clay arrived at the home, he began inspecting the basement and the already-installed products. Following his in-depth analysis, Clay recommended fully waterproofing their basement to prevent further damage. The homeowner agreed and the plans were directed to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Raul, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the project. Once they arrived, the crew started by installing the WaterGuard around the entire basement perimeter. Once the WaterGuard was installed, the crew replaced the old sump pump with the TripleSafe sump pump. Moving forward, Raul and the crew installed an IceGuard on the outside discharge line. Finally, the crew put the FoamMax on the exterior foundation walls. Once all the products were installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the crew's efficiency. American Waterworks is glad to provide another homeowner peace of mind. 

Waterproofing Transformation in Pine Island, MN

A homeowner in Pine Island, MN, was unhappy with the status of their basement. Unsure where the water was sneaking in, the homeowner knew they needed a professional opinion. A couple of years prior, the homeowner had us complete a FREE estimate at their home. Instead of reaching out to a new company, the homeowner contacted our Appointment Center and signed up for another FREE estimate. We sent Rick, one of our Design Specialists, to the home to evaluate the basement. Rick arrived and began his thorough inspection of the basement. Following his inspection, Rick recommended updating the basement waterproofing products. After deliberating, the homeowner decided this was the best route to take. The plans were sent to our Foreman, Lane, and his crew. Once they arrived, Lane and the crew installed the WaterGuard around the entire perimeter of the basement. After installing the WaterGuard, the crew attached CleanSpace to the basement walls. Additionally, the old sump pump was replaced with the TripleSafe Sump Pump. On the outside, the crew attached the IceGuard to the discharge line. After all the products were properly installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with their waterproofing transformation. American Waterworks is happy to secure another home's basement. 

Water Leaking into Basement in Ionia, IA

Heather M. in Ionia, IA had a sump pump that was unable to keep up with the amount of water that needed to be discharged from her basement. Water had started pooling on her basement floor and she knew she needed to seek help from a professional waterproofing company before more damage occurred. She found American Waterworks’ website and was happy to see that we offer free estimate. We sent our Design Specialist, Mike Radosevich, to her home to evaluate her situation and find a solution for her. Mike discussed her needs, answered her questions, and developed a thorough plan to waterproof her basement. She was happy with the proposal Mike developed, so they set a date for the installation.

Our team installed our WaterGuard drainage system around the perimeter of her basement, which led to the new TripleSafe sump pump that we installed. The TripleSafe has three layers of protection, so Heather can rest easy knowing that her sump pump will not fail her this time. Once the water is guided to the sump pump, it is then pumped through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Our team also installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier which protects the walls from water seeping in and the potential growth of mold. The combination of these waterproofing solutions ensure that Heather’s basement will now be a clean, dry and livable space for many years to come!
