Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Saint Paul, MN, had a flooded basement and wanted to address the issue immediately before it led to further damage to his home. He began searching for basement waterproofing in the area and found our website. After browsing through our website, the homeowner grew impressed with our 5-star reviews and before-and-after photos. Confident we would do the job well, the homeowner contacted us to schedule his FREE estimate. 

In about a week, one of our Design Specialists arrived at the home to provide a thorough inspection of the home, answer any questions, and provide the best solution for the homeowner. He informed the homeowner that their current sump pump was not working properly, as it could not remove excess water efficiently. After inspecting the home, our Design Specialist recommended WaterGuard, our below-the-floor perimeter drain system that intercepts water and sends it away safely, CleanSpace, our vapor wall barrier that collects water leaks and sends it to the drain system, Foamax, our advanced polyisocyanurate foam insulation panel to control humidity, our TripleSafe, our top-of-the-line sump pump system that comes with 3 levels of protection, and IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line that allows water to leave in case the sump pump line freezes. After reviewing the proposal, the homeowner happily agreed and scheduled the installation date. 

In a couple of months, our Foreman, Kiko, and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They installed 125ft of WaterGuard, 110ft of Foamax, 15ft of CleanSpace, 2 IceGuard, and 1 TripleSafe sump pump. After everything was properly installed, the crew cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Water was entering into the home, through an old egress window, after heavy downpours.  American Waterworks was able to stop the leak by replacing the window and the window well. 

A homeowner in Roseville, MN was enjoying a nice night by the fireplace when he noticed a damp patch in front of the fireplace. Upon further investigation, he found that water was entering his basement through the base of the brick fireplace. He wanted to get a full diagnosis of the problem so he called our office and claimed his FREE, no-obligation estimate. A few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Jessie, was scheduled to go out to the home to see what could be done. After Jesse's inspection, he told the homeowner that the basement was only susceptible to water in front of the fireplace. He proposed using our WaterGuard to correct the issue. He explained that our WaterGuard french drainage system is an award-winning, patented below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. He went on to say that this system is popular because of its resistance to clogs, easy-to-access ports, and ability to collect water leaking from basement walls. The homeowner agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Chris, and his team made quick work of the installation. He Connected the WaterGuard to an already installed sump pump and then covered the system up with a layer of fresh cement to keep it in place. Now our customer can enjoy their basement oasis without fear of water raining on their parade!

A homeowner in Roseville, MN was enjoying his basement space when he suddenly noticed a puddle of water on the floor at the base of one of the walls. He knew he had to do something to fix the problem and remembered that one of his neighbors also had similar issues in their basement recently. He discovered that they used American Waterworks' services and decided to give it a try for himself. He scheduled a FREE estimate appointment with a Design Specialist to visit the home's basement area and see what was wrong. When Design Specialist Ryan Kennedy arrived, the homeowner led him to the problem area. Ryan recommended our WaterGuard system which is specifically designed to intercept water at the perimeter of your basement and send it away safely. The homeowner was excited to have a solution and agreed to the plans. When Foreman Jeremiah Fischer visited the home along with his crew, they carefully installed the WaterGuard in the needed areas and made sure to clean up the area before leaving the home. The homeowner was thankful to have his basement space back, free of water!

A homeowner from Saint Paul, MN, had noticed that a section of the floor on the main level of his home was much colder than other areas of the floor. It occurred to the homeowner that the issue might be his crawl space beneath the home. He began to look for a crawl space repair company in MN and quickly found us. He was impressed with our previous work and scheduled his FREE estimate. Several weeks later, our Design Specialist was headed out to the home. When he arrived, he wasted no time getting down into the crawl space. When he finished, he was ready to make his recommendation. First, our Design Specialist recommended our CleanSpace, a 100% waterproof tarp-like material that gets installed directly to the walls of the crawl space. It works to collect the water entering through holes and cracks in the wall, keeping it off the crawl space floor. To compliment this product, our Design Specialist recommended our drainage matting, a dimpled matting that gets laid down on the floor of the space before the CleanSpace, giving the draining water a channel to flow freely to a disposal site. He then went on to recommend our TerraBlock and Foamax wall panel combo. TerraBlock™ crawl space insulation was developed to meet the challenge of insulating rough, uneven crawl space floors. The ¾-in.-thick sheet material is covered on both sides with a durable moisture barrier that makes the insulation resistant to puncture and abrasion damage. Foamax is a polyisocyanurate foam insulation panel with a white foil finish on the front and a foil vapor barrier on the back. It offers high-performance features such as high insulation value, a brighter, warmer basement, and can be left exposed, meaning no need to cover the panels. The homeowner was thrilled with the plan and signed on the spot. 

Several weeks later, our Foreman, Kiko P, and his team successfully installed 260 sqft of CleanSpace, 198 sqft of Drainage Matting, 198 sqft of TerraBlock, and 116 sqft of Foamax. Now, our customer can enjoy a nice warm floor and energy-efficient house!
