American Waterworks Before & After Photos

An Owatonna, MN, homeowner was growing tired of her old sump pump. Each time it rained, the sump pump had to work overtime to compensate for all of the water. At times, the issue was so bad that the homeowner had water all over her basement floor. She no longer wanted to clean up after the older sump pump and decided to begin her search for a sump pump system company in Minnesota. When she found our website, she signed up for her FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, Dustin A, one of our Design Specialists, was scheduled to stop at her home. 

After Dustin finished his walkthrough, he informed the homeowner that she was correct to call us and that we could provide her with a new sump pump that would be sure to keep her basement dry. Dustin recommended our SuperSump sump pump, an effective and economical solution to water intrusion. This machine is engineered to help keep the basement dry and healthy for extended periods, even in times of heavy water intrusion. The SuperSump boasts a powerful Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement. The homeowner was thrilled about the idea of having a new sump pump, and eagerly scheduled the job for several weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Matt Z, and his team installed the sump pump with no issues. Now, our customer can enjoy the rain without fear that it will end up on her basement floor!

An Owatonna, MN, homeowner was facing a unique issue with her home. Each time it rained, the homeowner's sump pump wouldn't turn on, regardless of the amount of water entering the space. This problem resulted in an even bigger problem: a flooded basement. The homeowner knew she couldn't head into a Minnesota winter with an outdated sump system, so he began searching for a basement specialist near him. When he found our website, he signed up for his FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Brady S, headed out to the home. 

Brady conducted a thorough inspection of the basement, and when he finished, he was ready to meet with the homeowner. Brady recommended several of our products but stressed the importance of updating the sump system. Brady recommended the installation of our TripleSafe Sump Pump. Brady explained that The TripleSafe is the most reliable sump pump in our lineup. It boasts three levels of protection for your basement and your peace of mind. For normal functioning, The TripleSafe offers a powerful, cast-iron Zoeller 1/3 horsepower sump pump set at the lowest level. For heavy volumes of water, or in case of primary pump failure, a second, more powerful Zoeller 1/2 horsepower pump, set a bit higher, in the liner will take over. The homeowner quickly agreed with Brady and scheduled the installation for several weeks later. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Raul B, and his team effortlessly installed one of our TripleSafe sump pumps. Now, our customer can enjoy the rain without worries that it will wind up in her basement!

Nick M. in Dennison, MN had learned about the dangers of radon gas and decided that he needed to get his home tested. The test results showed a high level of radon. Our Design Specialist walked him through the radon mitigation installation process and answered his questions. Nick wanted to act quickly and moved forward with an installation date. 

Our radon mitigation specialists drilled a hole through the concrete basement to create a suction point for the gas. Then, a PVC pipe is inserted which goes up through the house and exits the home through the roof. A fan is installed at the top of the PVC pipe to ensure that the radon gas is being pushed away from the home. The post mitigation test results showed that his home is now a much safer environment. The installation took only one day to complete, and Nick is glad he took action to protect his and his family’s health.

A homeowner from Dennison, MN, was down in his basement one day when he realized his basement wall seemed to be tilting inward. He had been aware of several large cracks forming in the foundation and knew that this was the final indicator that he needed to seek professional help to restore the wall. He began to look for foundation repair MN and quickly found our website. He was impressed with our reviews and decided to sign up for his FREE estimate. 

Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Brian R, headed out to the home. After conducting a thorough inspection of the issue, Brian informed the homeowner that he wanted to use our Channel Anchors to address the failing wall. He explained that this system is versatile and effective and can stabilize walls that are bowing, tipping, pushing in at the bottom, tilting at the top, or showing similar signs of failure. They are installed with minimal disturbance to your lawn and landscaping, often in a day or less. This warrantied solution includes a complete wall anchor system and a channel anchor that mounts on your foundation floor and wall for optimal bracing and failure protection. The homeowner agreed with the proposed work and scheduled the job for several weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Raul B, and his team successfully installed 5 of our Channel Anchors throughout the basement. Now, our homeowner can breathe easy knowing his foundation worries are in the past! 

After purchasing their Forest City, IA home, Matt & Jenni decided to contact American Waterworks to have a new sump pump installed in their basement after realizing the DIY version wasn't keeping up with the demands of their home. American Waterworks was a no-brainer for these two, as our Team had previously installed our Geo-Lock Foundation Wall Anchor reinforcement system in the home back in 2013.
