Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Tomah, WI noticed seapage through their drywall and called American Waterworks to investigate the issue.  After a thorough analysis Tom noticed a crack in the homeowner's foundation that was causing the leak.  American Waterworks was able to install The FlexiSpan system in which seals the wall crack as a first line of defense.   But if any water should leak through the crack, a hidden, foam-lined channel transports this leakage to the waterproofing system.  Peace of mind for a lifetime!

Tim C. in Tomah, WI was tired of the water seeping into his basement causing damage to his property. He contacted American Waterworks for a FREE estimate and met with one of our Design Specialists to create a unique solution for his home. 

Our production crew got to work and installed 78 feet of our WaterGuard drainage system and our SuperSump sump pump. The WaterGuard system is an award-winning, patented below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. Tim is glad his basement has been transformed into a dry, functional space!

Darwin and Geraldine D. had water coming into their basement through the floor, causing them to worry about the safety and value of their home. They called our office line and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Mac. Mac went to their home, carefully examined their water problems, and drew out a detailed proposal of the waterproofing costs. Darwin and Geraldine were confident in Mac's plan, so they went ahead with the project and scheduled a date for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Dylon, and his production team began the project by breaking out the entire concrete floor perimeter, forming a waterway trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System, which serves as an underground drain, prevents mud and water clogs, and collects water leaks from basement walls. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the basement wall perimeter. This vapor barrier is made to prevent mold and mildew, cover any holes or divots, and act as an extra blanket protectant. Lastly, Dylon and his team installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which is the best sump pump we provide for homeowners. It solves all three water problems in one system and provides three different layers of water protection. To complete the installation, our team filled the open floor gaps with river rock and pea gravel and applied new concrete over them. Darwin and Geraldine were happy with the repairs and had a great experience!

A Tomah, WI, homeowner had been eyeing his basement walls for some time now. He could have sworn that, over time, the wall had slowly been showing signs of tilting inward. The homeowner didn't know of any local foundation repair companies, but on the recommendation of a friend, decided to call American Waterworks and set up a FREE estimate. Several weeks later, one of our Design Specialist was headed out to the home. 

When our Design Specialist arrived, he wasted no time getting down into the basement to examine the wall and the foundation of the home. When he finished, he met with the homeowner to deliver his results. 

He began by saying that foundation walls are designed to withstand pressure from above, not from the side. So, when the pressure on the side of the wall exceeds what the wall can withstand, homeowners will see bowing, cracking, sliding in at the bottom, or tilting inward at the top. Our Design Specialist then reassured the homeowner that while this issue seems daunting, the solution is relatively simple and non-invasive. Our Design Specialist wanted to use our CarbonArmor wall reinforcing system. He explained that CarbonArmor is a state-of-the-art solution used to fix cracked and bowing foundation walls. It's comprised of epoxy and carbon fiber to strengthen and stabilize foundation walls. While this method does not restore a bowed wall, it will halt further movement and cracks. The homeowner was happy with our recommendation, and decided to sign on the spot. 
On the day of the installation, our crew, led by their Foreman Chris N, worked hard to install 7 CarbonArmor straps throughout the basement and on the wall in question. When the process had been completed, our homeowner was thrilled to know that he could put his foundation worries in the past!
