Basement Waterproofing in Tomah, WI
A homeowner in Tomah, WI has an older home and water kept coming into their basement after a good rain. It appeared like there was mold on the walls also. They saw an American Waterworks commercial on television, so they called our office line and got a FREE estimate scheduled with our Design Specialist, Mac. After a thorough inspection and written proposal of our CleanSpace Wall System and WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain, the homeowner got a date scheduled for the installation.
Our Foreman, Kiko, and his production team installed our CleanSpace Wall System and WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain around the entire basement floor and wall perimeter. Our WaterGuard serves as an underground drain, it prevents water and mud clogs, and it collects water seepage from basement walls. Our CleanSpace is designed to prevent mold and mildew, save money on energy costs, and give the basement a neat and clean appearance. The homeowner was thrilled with the completed work and was grateful we could help them fulfill their wants and needs!

Failing Wall Fixed in Tomah, WI
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!

One of the first companies to catch their eye was us, American Waterworks. After reviewing our impressive before and after photo albums, the homeowner knew we were the best company for their project.

To prevent the bowing from continuing, Chuck recommended installing CarbonArmor strips onto the walls. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner decided to go ahead with Chuck's proposal.

CleanSpace and WaterGuard Keep Viroqua, WI Basement Dry
Cy S. in Viroqua, WI contacted American Waterworks because he had water in his basement and his new addition. He met with one of our Design Specialists, who proposed that the best solution was to install a full perimeter of our WaterGuard drainage system and a SuperSump sump pump.
Our Foreman, Arturo Mares, and his crew installed our WaterGuard drainage system. They removed a section of the concrete floor around the perimeter and created a drainage trench. The WaterGuard is then placed within the trench and filled back with rock to fill the gaps. They also installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier along the walls to protect the room from moisture and potential mold growth. The encapsulation system will now guide water leaking in through the foundation walls and redirect it to their WaterGuard perimeter floor drainage system and ultimately drain into the SuperSump sump pump. Cy is pleased that his basement is now a dry, healthier space and he is glad he chose to invest in the long-term protection of his home.
