Drying up Central Iowa one basement at a time since 1957!
American Perfection Basement Waterproofing was founded here in Des Moines in 1957 by Joe Gazzo, a local entrepreneur who created the very first, interior basement waterproofing system in Iowa. A system designed to not only prevent hydrostatic pressure from building up under your basement floor, but also collect all wall water by installing his patented Scubaguard. The fail-proof system that Joe invented is still installed and used by American Perfection to this day with a 100% success rate. Joe was a man with strong family values, believed in hard work, and dedicated customer service, values that this family-owned company still carry to this day.
