Before & After Photos

Scott R. in Fountain, MN had water leaking into his basement through the crack where the wall meets the floor. He decided to start looking for a waterproofing contractor and that’s when he found the American Waterworks website. He was impressed that we have been waterproofing experts for almost 30 years, so he decided to contact us for a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists, Pete Wangen, went to his home to inspect his basement and he developed a thorough waterproofing plan. Scott was happy with the proposal, so they scheduled the installation. 

Our production team removed the concrete around the perimeter of his basement floor and laid our WaterGuard drainage system. Then, we installed a TripleSafe sump pump in the corner of the basement. The WaterGuard guides water to the sump pump and then the water is pumped out of the home through the discharge line. Lastly, they replaced the concrete and installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier system which protects the basement from moisture and potential mold growth. Scott was very pleased with the result and it happy that he can now enjoy a dry, healthier basement!

A couple from Fountain, MN got in contact with us when they began to notice that water was finding its way into their basement. Wanting to fix the issue before it could worsen, they contact our office and we set them up with our FREE estimate. A few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Josh, headed out to the property to complete his walkthrough. Once he completed his inspection, he was ready to make recommendations as to how we could help the couple transform their space. First, Josh wanted to use our CleanSpace vapor barrier. He told the couple that our CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof tarp that gets applied directly onto the basement walls experiencing leakage. It works to catch water entering through cracks and holes in the foundation, leading it down into Josh's second recommendation, our WaterGuard below-floor french drainage system. Josh said that our WaterGuard is an award-winning, patented below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. Its job is to catch water and then redirect it to the appropriate disposal site. The couple agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Kiko, and his team worked to install both products. When they finished, they installed 112ft of our WaterGuard and another 112ft of our CleanSpace throughout the basement. Now our customers can enjoy their space without thoughts of water intrusion. 

A homeowner in Fountain, MN, was worried that their walls were leaking. Worried this could cause long-term damage, the homeowner knew they needed to find an expert to provide a permanent solution. Unsure who to work with, the homeowner began looking into "basement waterproofing near me". One of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks. Impressed with our stellar ratings and reviews, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, we sent one of our Design Specialists, Ryan, to the home to take a closer look. Ryan confirmed that several areas were suffering from water intrusion. To prevent this issue from worsening, Ryan recommended installing several waterproofing products throughout the basement. Next, Ryan and the homeowner worked together to find the best installation date. Once the installation date was selected, our Foreman, Raul, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Raul and his crew installed several waterproofing products throughout the basement. First, the crew installed WaterGuard around the basement perimter. Once the WaterGuard was secured, Raul and his crew took out the old sump pump and replaced it with the TripleSafe sump pump. Finally, the crew completed the project by installing CleanSpace on the unfinished basement walls. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to repair its customers' damaged basements. 

Harvey and Georgia P. of Mora, MN had water leaking throughout their unfinished basement, making them feel unsafe and nervous to live in their own home. They got in contact with American Waterworks to set up a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Shane Nephew. Shane went to their home to inspect their water problems and come up with a solution. After a thorough and in-depth examination, Harvey and Georgia were comfortable with Shane's proposal, so they went ahead and got an installation date scheduled. 

Our Foreman, Kiko Pena, and his crew started the installation by breaking out the concrete perimeter of the basement floor, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which is made to prevent water clogs, acts as an underground drain, and collects water seepage from basement walls. Next, our team applied our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the basement wall perimeter, which is made to prevent mold and humidity build-up and is pliable enough to cover uneven surfaces and irregular walls, especially areas with large rock or deteriorations. Lastly, our team installed our SuperSump Plus M53 sump pump, which is made to keep basements clean and dry for long periods of time. To complete the project, Kiko and his crew covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Harvey and Georgia were thrilled with the work and had a great experience from start to finish!
