Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Chippewa Falls, WI was cleaning his basement when he noticed one of the wall's base panels was damp. He began to check the other walls and became concerned when he found the same issue throughout the whole basement. He decided not wait and let the issue continue growing worse and immediately began searching for solutions. The homeowner came across the American Waterworks and was interested in signing up for one of our FREE estimate appointments. We decided to send over Design Specialist Daniel Reinke to take a look at the basement and give his recommendations. Daniel explained that with this kind of issue, the basement needed to be fully waterproofed with the installation of our WaterGuard system around the basement perimeter. He explained that our WaterGuard is the premier choice for below-floor drains, as it stays on top of the footing and out of the "mud zone" where other drains of it's kind normally clog. The homeowner was pleased that there was a solution and agreed to the recommendations. When it was time for the installations, Foreman Lane Schlobohm crew arrived at the home, ready to complete the project. Lane and his crew successfully installed the WaterGuard and the homeowner was beyond happy to have a clean water-free basement back.

A homeowner in Chippewa Falls, WI, noticed a musty smell around their home. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner knew they needed a professional to provide them with a solution. The homeowner looked into "causes of musty odors" and one of the causes was a poorly insulated crawl space. Then, the homeowner decided to expand to looking into "crawl space repair near Chippewa Falls, WI". At the top of the list was us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided to look closer into our services. The homeowner was impressed with our previous work, so they knew we were the ideal company for their project. 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 our Design Specialist, Daniel, to the home to take a closer look. Daniel arrived at the home and thoroughly inspected the crawl space. During his detailed inspection, Daniel confirmed the crawl space was the source of the musty odors. Daniel recommended encapsulating the entire crawl space to prevent the issues from worsening. The homeowner agreed with Daniel's recommendations, then the proposal was sent to our Logistics team to approve and schedule the project for the following month. Once the project date arrived, our Foreman, Lane, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the project. Lane and his crew arrived and started by installing Drainage Matting on the crawl space floor. After the Drainage Matting was laid, Lane and his crew attached CleanSpace to the unfinished crawl space floors and walls. Finally, the crew installed Foamax on the crawl space walls. Lane and his crew completed the crawl space encapsulation, so they cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the transformation by the crew. American Waterworks is delighted to assist their homeowners in repairing and securing their damaged crawl space. 

A homeowner in Chippewa Valley, WI, knew it was time to repair their leaky basement. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner knew they needed to find a professional to provide them with answers. After looking into "who to call for a basement leak?", one of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks. Impressed with the reviews, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeonwer prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Darin. A few days later, Darin promptly arrived at the home and began the thorough inspection of the basement. During the inspection, Darin confirmed that several areas were suffering from water intrusion. To prevent this issue from worsening, Darin recommended installing several waterproofing products throughout the basement. The homeowner agreed and worked with Darin to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Foreman, Raul, and his crew. A few days later, Raul and his crew started by installing WaterGuard around the basement perimter. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew shifted to taking out the old sump pump and replacing it with the TripleSafe Sump Pump. Finally, Raul and his crew attached CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. After all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their matierals and left the home. American Waterworks is happy to provide its homeowners with ultimate peace of mind knowing their basements will stay dry. 

Tom O. in Taylor, WI was suffering from a wet basement. Water was seeping through the block foundation and pooling on the floor. He did his research and contacted American Waterworks for a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists met with Tom, evaluated the situation, and proposed a solution to fit his needs. Tom approved of the plan and scheduled the project. 

Our Foreman, Jesus Covarrubias, and his production crew removed the concrete around the perimeter of the basement floor, laid the WaterGuard drainage system, installed our recommended TripleSafe sump pump, and then filled back the gaps with rock. The discharge line was installed in the yard and they replaced the concrete in the basement. The process only took one day to complete, and Tom is glad he made the investment to protect his basement. 

Julie and Brian B. of Taylor, WI had water leaking into their basement, making them worry about water damage, flooding hazards, and other problems. They knew of an employee at American Waterworks, so they set up a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Tim Schneider. Tim went to their home, carefully inspected their basement, and came up with a solution that worked for them and their home repair needs. They were confident in Tim's drawn out design and his proposal, so they signed the contract and followed through with the project. 

Our Foreman, Kiko Pena, and his production team began the installation by breaking out the concrete perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a waterway trench. In the trench, our team installed 146 feet of our WaterGuard System, which is made to collect water seepage from basement walls, prevent water clogs, and serve as an underground drain in connection to the sump pump. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier around the basement wall perimeter. Our CleanSpace System is made to prevent mold and humidity, keep water from invading the basement, and direct leaking water into the WaterGuard. To complete the installation, Kiko and his crew covered all the open gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over it, leaving the basement looking much neater than when they found it. Julie and Brian were grateful we were able to help them and were amazed by the transformation!
