Wet Basement Restored in Lansing, IA

Martin D. in Lansing, IA has a two-story home with a walk-in basement built into a steep hillside. His home was built right next to the Mississippi River. They have had problems with their basement flooding for several years, especially during heavy rains. They were tired of dealing with a wet basement, so they contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists, Mike Radosevich, went to the home to inspect the basement and provide them with the right solution. After meeting with Mike, Martin felt confident in our company and our products, so he chose to have our waterproofing system installed. 

Our Foreman, Hugo Sanchez, and his crew installed our WaterGuard drainage system around the perimeter of the basement floor, a TripleSafe sump pump in the corner, and a SaniDry dehumidifier, which keeps the humidity in the basement under control. The drainage system guides water to the sump pump, and from there the water is expelled from the home through the discharge line. Martin is happy with the outcome and has been able to enjoy a dry, healthier basement since the installation!

Harpers Ferry, IA, Radon Mitigation System Secured

A homeowner in Harpers Ferry, IA, recently read an article discussing the dangers of radon gas. Concered by this discovery, the homeowner looked into a "radon abatement system." One of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks, so 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, Brad. A few days later, Brad traveled to the home to begin the thorough inspection. During the inspection, Brad began a radon test. While the test was being completed, Brad searched for the best place to secure the Radon Mitigation System. The test was completed, and the results showed the levels were dangerously high. To prevent the issue from worsening, Brad suggested securing a Radon Mitigation system. Knowing this was the best plan of action, the homeowner agreed and worked with Brad to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Gus, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Gus and his crew started by securing a Radon Mitigation System on the outside of the home. Once the Radon Mitigation System was secured, the crew shifted to cleaning up their matierals and leaving the home. The homeowner was grateful for the excellent work completed by the crew.
