Before & After Photos

Tami A. of Postville, IA had water leaking through the walls of her basement so she called American Waterworks for a FREE Estimate. We sent out our Design Specialist, Mike Radosevich, to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. After an in-depth diagnosis, Tami trusted the process, so she scheduled an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Kiko Pena, and his production crew installed our WaterGuard System by breaking out the concrete to form a trench. Next, our crew applied our CleanSpace Wall System to prevent any further mold or humidity. Our crew covered the open trench gaps with rock and replaced the concrete.

Alan A. of Postville, IA wanted new basement windows, so he called American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist, Rick, went to Alan's house, inspected her existing windows, and proposed a bid. Alan got all of his questions answered and was confident in the solution, so he went ahead with the project.

Our Foreman, Gabriel R., and his crew broke out the pre-existing basement windows and replaced them with our EverLast Replacement Basement Windows, which are far more energy-efficient, are double-paneled, vinyl-framed, and give a nice appearance to the home. Once the installation was completed, Gabriel provided Alan with a thorough walkthrough of the project and ensured he was happy with the work.

A homeowner in Stoddard, WI continually experienced flooding in their basement when the power went out.  American Waterworks was able to replace the failing beaver system and sump pump with our Waterguard and Triple Safe sump pump so the homeowner no longer had to worry about a wet basement after a storm.

Leo S. in Stoddard, WI had water leaking through his wood foundation into his finished basement. Unfortunately, the water had caused damaged to his drywall and flooring. He contacted American Waterworks after seeing one of our commercials on TV, and we sent one of our Design Specialists, Pete Wangen, to his home to provide him with a free estimate and unique waterproofing plan. He liked the thorough plan that Pete developed, so he scheduled the installation.  

Our Foreman, Cory Sather, and his production crew removed the damaged portion of the drywall and then removed the concrete around the perimeter of the basement floor to create a trench for our WaterGuard drainage system. They laid the WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement, so the water will be properly guided to the sump pump. Next, they filled back the gaps around the WaterGuard with rock and replaced the concrete. Then, they installed the EverLast half-wall restoration system. This wall system includes metal studs and an inorganic, mold-resistant wall product that replaces the bottom 32" of the drywall. This is a permanent solution for water-damaged dry wall! Leo’s peace of mind has been restored and he is enjoying a dry, healthier basement!

Katie W. in Waukon, IA noticed that she had cracks in her foundation and water was seeping through the cracks into her basement. The water had started damaging her personal items in her basement, and she was concerned that the damage to her basement was only going to get worse. She started looking for a waterproofing contractor in the area and she came across the American Waterworks website. She was glad to see that we have over 29 years of experience in the waterproofing industry. She contacted us to receive a free estimate, so we sent a Design Specialist to her home to inspect her basement and design a solution. She was pleased with the proposal that we developed for her, so she scheduled the installation.

Our production team installed a full perimeter of our WaterGuard drainage system in her basement and two lateral lines through the middle of the floor. We also installed our TripleSafe sump pump system- which is our most reliable sump pump. The drainage system properly guides water to the sump pump, and from there the water is pumped through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Our waterproofing system is backed by a lifetime warranty, so Katie can rest easy knowing that she chose the right solution to protect her home for the long-term.
