Real peace of mind for your basement and crawl space.
American Waterworks keeps the water out. Shipshape gives you a clear view that it is all still working, day and night, and the team you already trust is right there if anything ever changes. We have got your back.
A clear view of your basement, even when you are away.
About a minute on what gaining visibility into your basement and crawl space actually looks like.
Shipshape, on watch over the basements and crawl spaces American Waterworks protects.
Like a check-engine light for your basement.
Your car warns you before the engine fails. Now your basement can too. Shipshape keeps a professional eye on the equipment American Waterworks installed and gives you a friendly heads-up the moment something needs attention.
Your sump pump is keeping up
If the pump runs too long, runs dry, or loses power in the middle of a storm, you and American Waterworks get an early alert, usually before water ever reaches the floor. That is exactly how one homeowner caught a failing pump at her cabin in time.
The air stays dry and healthy
If humidity starts climbing even while your dehumidifier is running, you will know early, so musty air, mold, and that damp-basement smell never get a foothold.
Your radon system is doing its job
A radon mitigation fan only protects your family while it is running. If it ever stops, Shipshape lets you know, so the system quietly guarding your home's air keeps working the way American Waterworks set it up to.
One small kit, installed by the pros you trust.
American Waterworks sets it up while they are already in your home. No project, no hassle, nothing for you to configure.
- A small gateway plus wireless sensors on your sump pump, dehumidifier, and radon system.
- A simple app and alerts so you can check on your basement from anywhere.
- Backed by U.S.-based monitoring, watching the equipment so you do not have to.
It already protects homes like yours.
Gary, a Shipshape homeowner, on the peace of mind it gives him.
A homeowner called in about her cabin, where Shipshape notified her that her sump pump was running continuously. We got a technician out the same day, before the pump burned out and caused water in the home.

Questions homeowners ask.
Will Shipshape add a lot to my bill?
No. It is a small monthly cost, far less than a single emergency repair. A flooded basement can mean a ruined floor, lost belongings, and thousands in cleanup. One early alert that catches a failing sump pump or rising humidity can pay for years of it.
Is it hard to install?
There is nothing for you to do. American Waterworks sets it up while they are already in your home, and it is working before they leave. No project, no hassle, nothing for you to configure.
What exactly does it keep an eye on?
The equipment American Waterworks installed: your sump pump, dehumidifier, and radon system. You get a friendly heads-up if any of them stops doing its job, often before you would ever notice.
What happens if I sell my home?
American Waterworks backs your waterproofing system with a transferable Lifetime Warranty, so the protection carries to the new owners. The peace of mind, and the monitoring, can go with the home too.
Do I need to be technical to use it?
Not at all. A simple app shows you that everything is fine, and sends a clear alert only when something needs attention. Your American Waterworks team is watching the same signals and has your back.
