Before & After Photos

A new homeowner from Ferryville, WI, was making some updates to his new property. The home had a crawl space below, and the new owner knew that if his crawl space wasn't properly encapsulated, it would not only make the home energy inefficient but could take on unwanted water and even critters.  He took to the internet to search for the 'best crawl space repair near me', and found our website. He looked through similar crawl space projects we had done in his area and was impressed with what he saw, so he signed up for his FREE estimate. Several weeks later, our Design Specialist made a stop at his home. 

Our Design Specialist got right to work evaluating the crawl space. When he finished, he met with the homeowner to deliver his recommendations. First, our Design Specialist recommended our CleanSpace for crawl space. Our CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof vapor barrier that gets applied directly to the unfinished walls of the crawl space. It works to trap any water entering through holes or cracks in the wall, directing it downward. To pair with the CleanSpace, our Design Specialist recommended our drainage matting. This matting gets installed below the CleanSpace on the crawl space floor. The dimpled matting allows any water collected by the CleanSpace a channel to flow to a disposal site such as a sump pump or discharge line. Finally, our Design Specialist informed the homeowner that even a basement with an effective waterproofing system can still develop moisture and mold problems and may feel damp. Concrete walls and floors continually absorb moisture from the soil and release it into the air in your basement, and store-bought dehumidifiers simply aren't strong enough to solve the problem. For this reason, he wanted to use our AprilAire dehumidifier. Adding an Aprilaire dehumidifier creates healthy air and can reduce the number of viable viruses in the air to less than 1% in two days when set to 50% RH. The homeowner agreed to the proposed work and scheduled the job for some time later. 

The day of the installation rolled around, and our team, led by their Foreman, Raul B, headed out to the home. When they had finished, they successfully installed 768 sqft of CleanSpace, 660 sqft of drainage matting, and 1 AprilAire dehumidifier. Now, our customer can enjoy his new property knowing that his home is functioning efficiently!

Homeowners in Elkader, IA wanted to get a sump pump installed in their garage because they were worried about groundwater leaking through the floor. They requested a FREE Estimate with our office staff for one of our Design Specialists to come out to their home and take a look. We proposed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which is the best sump pump we provide for homeowners. They were confident in our proposal, product, and warranty, so they followed through with the project. 

Our Foreman and his team cut out the concrete floor with a jackhammer, forming a hole for the sump basket, followed by the pumps. Our TripleSafe Sump Pump System comes with three levels of water protection and solves all three problems in one system. To complete the work, our team filled the open gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over it, ensuring the space was neat and clean. The homeowners were grateful they made this investment and no longer have to worry about groundwater!

Residents of Strawberry Point, IA wanted an interior drainage system installed in their basement, so they called American Waterworks to tackle the project. Our Design Specialist went to their home for a FREE estimate, inspected the space they were working with, and determined a price. After a clear inspection and estimate, the homeowners decided to move forward with the project. 

Our Foreman and his crew installed our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain, which serves as an underground drain that prevents mud clogs and catches water leakage from basement walls. Once the product was installed, our team filled the open gaps with river rock to prevent dirt from invading the WaterGuard and applied a new layer of concrete over them.

A homeowner in Strawberry Point, IA, was concerned after discovering water damage throughout their basement walls. Knowing they could not solve the issue themselves, the homeowner began looking into professional waterproofing companies that could solve their problems. The homeowner looked into "Iowa basement waterproofing" and at the top of the list was us, American Waterworks. Interested in learning more, the homeowner decided to take a look at the services we offer and the products we have. Impressed by all our services and products, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of Ryan, one of our Design Specialists. Ryan arrived at the home and began his detailed inspection of the basement. During his investigation, Ryan determined the basement needed to be professional waterproofing. Ryan proposed his plan to the homeowner and they agreed with his recommendations. After they were approved, the plans were passed along to our office to be approved. As soon as the office approved and built the project, they were sent to our Foreman, Kingsley, and his crew. Kingsley and his crew traveled to the home and started the project by installing WaterGuard around the basement perimeter. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew shifted their focus to installing the SuperSump+ in the corner of the basement. Next, the crew attached CleanSpace to the basement walls. Finally, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was grateful for the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to assist its customers in properly waterproofing their basements. 

Larry and Beth of Warrens, WI had an annual maintenance performed by our Service Technician, Darin. Darin noticed that water was seeping through Larry and Beth's foundation walls. He proposed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier, which is a vapor retarder that prevents water from seeping in and saves money on energy costs. Larry and Beth felt confident that this product would solve their problem, so they scheduled a date for the installation.

Our Foreman, Kiko, and his crew installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier along the basement wall perimeter. Larry and Beth were very happy with the work and could not believe the transformation!
