Iron Ochre Clogged Sump Pump Repaired in Houston, MN

Tammy E. in Houston, MN had water seeping into her basement through cracks in the floor. She also noticed a foul smell and some rust-colored stains. She contacted American Waterworks, and we sent our Design Specialist, Mike Radosevich, to her home to evaluate her situation. He discovered that Tammy had a buildup of iron ochre in her old sump pump. He explained that it is not a known health hazard but can quickly clog a French drain system. He presented her with our WaterGuard IOS Perimeter Drain Channel, which is ideal for managing this problem. Tammy was impressed with Mike’s presentation and our products and moved forward with an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Austin Lucas, and his production crew were able to permanently waterproof Tammy’s basement by installing 209 feet of our WaterGuard IOS System. The wide-open design of the drain helps it resist clogs, while a removable lid allows for easy access and maintenance. Then, the crew installed our recommended TripleSafe sump pump. The WaterGuard properly drains water to the sump pump and from there, the water is pumped through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Tammy was impressed with the installation, and is happy knowing that her problem is solved and her basement is dry! 

Leaking Basement Fix in Durand, WI

Heather C. Of Durand, WI had water leaking from the walls of her basement, causing her to worry about water moisture and mold build-up. She called our office line and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Dustin. Dustin went to her home, carefully inspected her problems, and drew up a solution that worked for her needs and budget. Heather got all of her questions answered and was confident in Dustin's proposal, so he went ahead with the project and scheduled a date for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Raul, and his production team began the project by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System, which is made to prevent water and mud clogs, collect all water seepage from basement walls, and serve as an underground drain in coordination with the sump pump. Next, Raul and his team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the basement wall perimeter, which is made to prevent mold and mildew and gives the basement a clean and neat appearance. To complete the project, our team covered the open floor gaps with pea gravel and applied new gravel over them. Heather was happy with the work that was completed and had a great experience!

Waterville, IA, Damp Basement Transformed

A homeowner in Waterville, IA, was in the process of renovating their home. Since they were completing all sorts of renovations, the homeowner decided they wanted to have their basement fully waterproofed. Unsure who to work with, the homeowners began looking into basement waterproofing companies closest to them. One of the first companies to catch their eye was us, American Waterworks. Impressed with our ratings and reviews, the homeowner knew we were the best company for their project. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Desing Specialist, Ryan. Ryan traveled to Waterville, IA, to begin the investigation. After Ryan's inspection, he confirmed the basement needed to be fully waterproofed. Additionally, Ryan recommended stabilizing the sagging floors. The homeowner agreed with Ryan's recommendations, so he passed the proposal along to our Logistics team to build and schedule the project. Next, the project was assigned to our Foreman, Luis, and his crew to begin. Luis and his crew started the project by installing WaterGuard around the basement perimeter. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew shifted their focus to taking out the old sump pump and replacing it with the TripleSafe Sump Pump. Next, the crew attached CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. Finally, the crew completed the project by installing SmartJacks along the sagging floors. Once all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was in awe of the wonderful transformation completed by the crew.
