American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Kathy W. of River Falls, WI had water leaking from her windows into her basement, and she wanted to get it fixed up before she began the moving stage. A realtor referred American Waterworks to her for our basement waterproofing repair products. She called our office line and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Mac Cole. Mac went to her home, inspected her basement and windows, and drew out a detailed plan that Kathy could understand. She was confident in Mac's proposal, so she went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his production team began the process by cutting out the pre-existing window and replacing it with our EverLast Basement Window. These special windows are energy-efficient, vinyl-framed, and double-paneled and are made to replace outdated wood-framed windows. Next, our crew broke out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which is made to prevent water clogs, serve as an underground drain, and collect water seepage from basement walls. Lastly, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier around the wall perimeter, which is made to prevent mold or humidity build-up and cover any holes or divots in the wall. To complete the project, Juan and his crew covered the open gaps with rock, flattened them out, and replaced the concrete. Kathy was and still is a satisfied customer! 

Teri and Joel of River Falls, WI had water leaking into their basement and from one of their foundation walls. They did some research online and came across American Waterworks. They called our office line and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Chad Johnson. Chad went to their home, examined their basement, and came up with a solution that fit their needs. Teri and Joel were confident in the design, so they moved forward with the project. 

Our Foreman, Kiko Pena, and his production team began the project by taking down the exterior wall, so only the interior foundation wall was present. The reason behind this was because the exterior wall was capturing moisture and causing water condensation problems. Next, our team broke out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which is made to collect water seepage from basement walls and serve as an underground drainage system. To complete the project, Kiko and his crew covered the open gaps with rock and applied new concrete. Teri and Joel were both satisfied and grateful we were able to help them!

A homeowner from River Falls, WI, had been chatting with his neighbor when he learned that the neighbor had his home tested for radon gas. The homeowner didn't know much about radon but figured he should have his home tested for radon just to be on the safe side. He took to the internet to search for 'radon mitigation company near me', and quickly found our website. He was impressed with our radon mitigation system pictures and decided to sign up for his FREE estimate. Several weeks later, Gary S, one of our Design Specialist, was scheduled to stop at the home. 

When Gary arrived, he got right to work placing a continuous radon monitoring test in the lowest level of the home. The goal of this test is to gauge radon levels over a 48 hour timespan, giving Gary a good idea of the average radon levels within the home at any given time. When Gary finished, he met with the homeowner to discuss next steps. Gary explained that radon is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless radioactive gas that is emitted from the breakdown of soil surrounding the home. He went on to say that if the levels came back over 4 pCi/L, he would strongly recommend having a radon mitigation system installed. A typical radon mitigation system consists of a large-diameter plastic pipe that connects the air beneath your foundation to the outdoors. An in-line fan sucks radon-rich air from beneath your foundation and expels this hazardous air to the exterior. Instead of entering your basement or other living space area through numerous gaps and cracks in the foundation, radon gas is extracted from beneath your foundation before it can permeate into interior space. When installed by an experienced radon mitigation specialist, a radon abatement system will lower the concentration of radon gas in your interior air to the minimal levels recommended by the EPA and other health and safety agencies. The homeowner agreed with Gary's recommendation but decided to wait for the radon levels to return before making a choice. A few days later, the results returned with much higher than normal levels. So the homeowner called Gary and the two worked together to find a good day for the system to be installed. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Geno M, and his team were able to install the system with no complications. Now, our homeowner can be confident that the air he and his family were breathing was as clean as possible!
