Before & After Photos

Vanessa D. of Arcadia, WI had water leaking through the cracks of her basement walls, and she wanted to get them looked at before the problem got any worse. She went online and came across American Waterworks and our free estimate page, so she requested a free estimate with our Design Specialist. Our Design Specialist went to her home, thoroughly inspected her basement, and drew out a solution that worked for her and her needs. Vanessa got all of her questions answered and felt confident in the proposal, so she went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman and his production team began the project by jackhammering out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System, which prevents water and mud clogs, collects water leakage from basement walls, and serves as an underground drain. Next, our team installed our FoamMax Wall Panels, which reduces the condensation for moisture protection and prevents mold and humidity. Lastly, our Foreman and his crew installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which is the best sump pump we provide for homeowners because it triples the protection, solves all three water problems in one unit, and comes with a battery back-up. To complete the project, our team backfilled the gaps with pea gravel and applied new concrete over them. Vanessa was happy with the repairs and had a great experience! 

Not only do we waterproof basements. We also repair foundation, lift and level concrete, test for radon, waterproof and repair crawl spaces, and install egress windows! Call us today or click HERE to request a free estimate with our Design Specialist team.

A homeowner from Arcadia, WI, was dealing with a sump pump issue. The homeowner's existing system was having trouble keeping up in times of heavy rain, which made the homeowner nervous because he knew that an outdated sump pump could lead to a flooded basement. He began to look for a local company who could help update his sump pump system, and quickly found American Waterworks. After watching our sump pump videos of our installations, he decided to claim his FREE, no-obligation estimate. 

Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Mac C, headed out to the home. When Mac arrived, he completed a thorough inspection of the basement and met back with the homeowner when the evaluation was complete. Mac recommended our TripleSafe sump pump system to replace the outdated pump. Our TripleSafe is the most reliable sump pump in our lineup, as it boasts three levels of protection for both your basement's health and your peace of mind. In times of normal functioning, the TripleSafe has a powerful, cast-iron Zoeller 1/3 horsepower pump set at the lowest level. For times of heavy water, or in case of primary pump failure, a second, more powerful Zoeller 1/2 horsepower pump is set a bit higher in the liner to take over. The homeowner was thrilled with Mac's recommendation and signed for the job on the spot. 

Several weeks later, our Foreman and his team placed the sump system in the basement with no issues. Now, our customer can head into Spring with confidence that his basement is properly defended against unwanted water! 

In Arcadia, WI, a homeowner was looking to get multiple works done on their home. They noticed the uneven concrete slabs around their home and water leaking into their basement. As the homeowner began their search for reputable contractors in the area, they found us. After browsing our website and being pleased that we both do concrete lifting and basement waterproofing, the homeowner contacted our Appointment Center to schedule their FREE estimate.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Darin S., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, he noticed their walkway had become uneven and bumpy due to slab settlement. Along with this, Darin also noticed water leaking from their walls and causing mold growth in the basement. After reporting his findings to the homeowner, Darin worked on a tailored solution that was within the homeowner's budget but would effectively fix the issues they were experiencing. Darin recommended installing WaterGuard, our interior drainage system, CleanSpace, our vapor wall liner, SuperSump+, our reliable sump pump system, and IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge system to waterproof the basement. To repair the concrete, Darin recommended lifting the slabs using our PolyLevel, foam expanding solution, and sealing the joints and cracks with NexusPro, our silicone-based sealant. Confident in the abilities of our team, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, one of our crews arrived to waterproof the basement. They installed 83ft of WaterGuard, 87ft of CleanSpace, 1 SuperSump+, and 1 IceGuard. The following week, our Foreman, Dylon V., and his crew arrived to lift the sunken slabs.

Sue P. of De Soto, WI had severe water seepage in her basement, so she gave American Waterworks a call to see what we could do to help her. We sent out our Design Specialist, Eric Fox, for a Free Estimate to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. After a thorough and detailed diagnosis, Sue was content with Eric's proposal, so she went ahead and got an installation date scheduled. 

Our foreman, Crescencio Pena, and his production team began the installation by breaking out the concrete around the perimeter of the basement. Next, they applied 182 feet of our CleanSpace Wall System around the basement wall perimeter. Our CleanSpace acts as a wall vapor barrier and prevents mold or humidity from invading the concrete walls. Then, our team applied 182 feet of stone thin concrete around the tops of the CleanSpace to make sure it was extra secure. Then, Crescencio and his crew installed 182 feet of WaterGuard in the broken-out concrete. Our WaterGuard acts as a drainage system; it prevents water clogs and collects the water waste from beneath the CleanSpace. To complete the basement, Crescencio and his team filled the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Sue was very pleased with the project, and was thankful we were able to help her save the life of her home!

Lastly, Dylon and his installed out SuperSump Plus M53 sump pump in the corner. Our sump pumps are made to pump water out fast and efficiently while keeping basements dry for many years.
