Before & After Photos

Brain B. of Le Center, MN had water seeping into his basement and his foundation wall was cracking. Both problems were causing him to worry about the safety and value of his home. While searching for local contractors on Google, he came across American Waterworks. He called our office line and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Jared. Jared went to Brain's home, took a look at the water leaks and his foundation, and wrote out a plan of our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain, CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier, and our Wall Anchor System. Brian was confident in our products and their features, so he set up a date for the installation.

Our Foreman, Raul, and his team started the installation by installing our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain, which is made to prevent mud clogs and catch water seepage from basement walls. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the basement wall perimeter, which is designed to prevent mold and humidity, save money on energy bills, and it gives the basement a clean appearance. Lastly, our team installed our Wall Anchors over the CleanSpace to straighten the walls and pull them back to their natural position. To complete the installation, our team filled the open-floor gaps with river rock and applied a new layer of concrete over them, ensuring the space was neat and clean. Brian was happy with the work and had a remarkable experience!

Geoffrey P. of Norwood Young America, MN had water issues in his basement, as well as a cracked foundation wall. He did his research for local contractors and came across American Waterworks. He scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Eric Hazelton. Eric inspected Geoffrey's basement and proposed our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain, CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier, and our Wall Anchor System. Geoffrey was confident in the project, so he scheduled the date for the install. 

Our Foreman, Dylon VanCanneyt, and his crew installed our WaterGuard first, which is an interior drainage system that prevents clogs and has easily accessible water ports when it comes time for annual maintenance. Next, our crew installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the basement wall perimeter, which prevents mold and humidity and provides warmth to the basement. Lastly, our crew installed our Wall Anchor System which brings the foundation wall back to its natural position. Geoffrey said he no longer has any water in his basement and was very happy with the crew!

With water coming through a wall in her basement, Amanda reached out to our team for her FREE estimate. Shortly after the appointment was scheduled, our Design Specialist, Shane, headed out to the property. Following a thorough inspection, Shane gave his recommendations to Amanda, suggesting that she invest in our waterproofing services to address the issues. She agreed and set up a time for installation. Foreman Arturo and his crew arrived at the home and quickly got to work. First, they Implemented our WaterGuard system; this particular system is typically used in basements and is the premier choice for basement waterproofing as it is installed below the floor but rests atop the foundation, keeping it out of the "mud zone", making it harder to clog. Next, the team added a powerful Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement. Our team also installed the UltraSump® Battery Backup System with the sump pump system to ensure lasting reliability. It's designed to keep your sump pump running efficiently and effectively. The UltraSump® system can pump out an excess of 11,500 gallons of water on a fully charged battery, which is enough water to fill a small swimming pool! 

Ms. Thompson contacted to address concerns that her interior foundation was beginning to crumble and water would pour through the cracks in the basement walls when it rained. Jeremy was able to point out that her foundation was bowing significantly and without the proper stabilization, her foundation walls were eventually going to collapse. Jeremy crafted a solution with our GEOLOCK wall anchor and WaterGuard basement waterproofing systems.  Combined, these two patented solutions will prevent any further water damage and permanently stabilize and straighten the foundation walls of her Waseca, MN home. 

The Stewarts upgraded their basement to include a RockWell egress window. They can now enjoy a more attractive window alternative that is code-compliant and backed by a 5 year warranty.
