Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Calmar, IA, knew it was time to schedule their annual maintenance appointment. The homeowner called our Service team and signed up for their annual maintenance appointment. Once their appointment was scheduled, the homeowner awaited the arrival of our Service Technician, Clay. Following his arrival, Clay began the detailed inspection of the installed products. During his inspection, the homeowner asked if he could inspect their crawl space. Clay took a closer look at the crawl space and found that it needed to be encapsulated. Once the inspection was complete, Clay presented his findings and proposed a solution to the homeowner. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner decided to go ahead with the proposal. Next, the plans were sent to our Logistics team to build and schedule the project. Once the project was scheduled, the proposal was sent to our Forman, Arturo, and his crew. Once they arrived, Arturo and his crew began by preparing the crawl space for the installation. Once the crawl space was ready, the crew installed CleanSpace along the floors and walls. After the CleanSpace was attached, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was in awe of the transformation created by the crew.

A homeowner in Calmar, IA, knew it was time to have their basement redone. The homeowner wanted it done right since they were completing an entire project. After discovering damp spots throughout their basement, the homeowner knew they needed to waterproof the entire space. The homeowner decided to look into "basement waterproofing near me" and one of the first companies to catch their eye was us, American Waterworks. Impressed with our ratings and review, the homeowner knew we were the perfect company for the job. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was finalized, the homeowner awaited the arrival of Brady, one of our Design Specialists. Brady arrived at the home and started his thorough investigation of the basement. During his inspection, Brady found several areas where the home was suffering the most. To prevent the water intrusion from continuing, Brady recommended fully waterproofing the entire space. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner decided to go ahead with Brady's recommendations. Once the homeowner approved Brady's plans, he passed them along to our Logistics team for the final stamp of approval. Our Logistics team built and scheduled the project, then it was assigned to our Foreman, Matt, and his crew. Matt and his crew traveled to Calmar and began by installing WaterGuard around the basement perimeter. Next, the crew shifted their focus to taking out the old sump pump and replacing it with the SuperSump+. Then, the crew attached CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. Finally, the crew completed the project by installing an Aprilaire E100. As soon as all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to assist their homeowners in repairing their suffering basements.

Tammy E. in Houston, MN had water seeping into her basement through cracks in the floor. She also noticed a foul smell and some rust-colored stains. She contacted American Waterworks, and we sent our Design Specialist, Mike Radosevich, to her home to evaluate her situation. He discovered that Tammy had a buildup of iron ochre in her old sump pump. He explained that it is not a known health hazard but can quickly clog a French drain system. He presented her with our WaterGuard IOS Perimeter Drain Channel, which is ideal for managing this problem. Tammy was impressed with Mike’s presentation and our products and moved forward with an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Austin Lucas, and his production crew were able to permanently waterproof Tammy’s basement by installing 209 feet of our WaterGuard IOS System. The wide-open design of the drain helps it resist clogs, while a removable lid allows for easy access and maintenance. Then, the crew installed our recommended TripleSafe sump pump. 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. Tammy was impressed with the installation, and is happy knowing that her problem is solved and her basement is dry! 

Kevin L. in Galesville, WI had dealt with a wet basement for the last 40 years, and he was finally tired of it. He did his research and learned that American Waterworks has been the leading waterproofing contractor in the region for the last 30 years. He met with one of our Design Specialists, Eric Hazelton, who evaluated the situation and designed a unique solution. 

Our Foreman, Cole Brinkman, and his production crew were able to successfully waterproof Kevin’s basement by installing 160 feet of our WaterGuard drainage system and our recommended TripleSafe sump pump. The WaterGuard French drain is designed to be installed below the floor slab, resting on top of the foundation footing. This keeps this drainage system out of the "mud zone", where drains can clog. Kevin is happy he found a permanent solution to protect his home. 

Lesley E. in Trempealeau, WI had 3 concrete slabs on her sidewalk up to the house that had become uneven and had started to chip.  She wanted to find a non-invasive and affordable way to repair the concrete so she started researching contractors in her area. She came across American Waterworks and was interested in learning more about our PolyLevel foam concrete repair solution. She gave us a call and we sent one of our Design Specialists, Kevin McWithey, to her home to give her a FREE onsite estimate. 

She was pleased to learn that PolyLevel is a faster and more affordable alternative to traditional concrete repair, while still being durable, so she set a date for the installation. One of our PolyLevel experts, Jared Wroblewski, drilled penny-size holes into the concrete slabs where he needed to inject the foam. He then injected the foam until the concrete was raised and leveled back to its original position. Lastly, he filled the cracks with our Nexus Pro sealant. The entire process took about two hours, and now Lesley can enjoy a level front porch and walkway for years to come!
