Before & After Photos

Eric S. in Cottage Grove, MN was experiencing water seeping through a wall in his basement during heavy rains. It had started to cause damage to his property, so he knew it was time to have a professional look at it. While researching waterproofing contractors, he found American Waterworks. He gave us a call and we sent one of our Design Specialists, Chad Johnson, to his home to give him a FREE estimate and to provide a solution. Eric was pleased with the waterproofing plan that Chad developed, so a date for the installation was set. 

Our crew installed our WaterGuard drainage system along the perimeter of the wall that had water seeping in. The WaterGuard drains water to the newly installed SuperSump sump pump, and it is then expelled from the home through the discharge line. Eric now has peace of mind that water in his basement is no longer a concern. He is glad he chose a long-term solution for his home.

Justin V. of Cottage Grove, MN had water leaking into his basement, causing him to feel nervous about water moisture, humidity, and mold build-up. He got in contact with American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Tim Schneider. Tim went to his home, examined where the water was leaking from, and came up with a solution that worked for him, his home repair needs, and his budget. Justin got all of his questions answered and felt confident in the proposal, so he signed the contract, put down a deposit, and scheduled a date for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Raul Barroso, 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 Drainage System, which is made to prevent water and mud clogs, serve as an underground drain that connects to the sump pump, and collects water seepage from the basement walls. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier, which is made to guide water into the WaterGuard, prevent any mold or mildew build-up, and act as a wall protectant barrier. To complete the work that was done, Raul and his team filled in the open gaps with rock and applied new concrete over it. Justin was happy with the work and had a great experience from the appointment to installation! 

Lloyd H. of Cottage Grove, MN was having foundation problems and he was seeing signs of moisture. He saw one of our vehicles driving around his area, so he called our office number and scheduled a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist went to Lloyd's home, proposed our Wall Recovery System solution, which is a company-based product that is two times stronger than cement and repairs deteriorating foundation walls. Lloyd was confident in the product, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman and his crew applied this spray-on solution around the entire foundation wall perimeter, ensuring the foundation was repaired and no more water moisture was appearing. Lloyd was happy with the work and his peace of mind was restored.

Jamie and Mary D. of Northfield, MN had water leaking into their basement, making them feel nervous about living in their home.

Jamie and Mary were both very comfortable with the proposal, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Dylon VanCanneyt, and his production team began the project by cutting out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a trench. In the trench, our crew 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 around the basement wall perimeter, which is made to prevent mold and humidity, cover any holes or divots, and serve as an extra wall protectant. Lastly, our team installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which provides three layers of protection and solves all three water problems in one system. To complete the project, Dylon and his crew covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Jamie was very happy with the project and had a remarkable experience from beginning to end!
