American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Roger R. in Hastings, MN was experiencing cracks in the concrete slabs of his garage and two corners of his garage had started sinking. He also noticed a stair step like crack on the outside of his garage foundation wall. He realized it was time to get a professional to inspect the situation and go over what his options were. One of our Design Specialists, Mac Cole, went onsite to give Roger a free estimate. Mac discovered that his entire garage had started sinking and recommended that we install piers around the perimeter of his garage and wall anchors on the external side wall of the garage to secure the foundation. Roger knew how costly replacing the entire foundation could be, so he was glad to find a solution that would permanently repair the foundation.

Foreman, Hugo Sanchez, and his crew installed 15 piers underneath the foundation of the home and 4 wall anchors on the external wall to ensure that the foundation would be fully supported and permanently stabilized. Roger can rest easy knowing that he took necessary action to permanently stabilize and protect his foundation from failing.

Tammy R. in Hastings, MN noticed dampness in several areas of her basement that started to cause damage to the foundation and create a musty smell. She was concerned about the air quality of her home and started to do some research. She was glad to learn that American Waterworks is the leading contractor in basement waterproofing in the region and gave us a call. We sent our Design Specialist to her home to evaluate the situation and propose a unique solution to fit her needs. She approved of the plan and moved forward with the installation date. 

Our Foreman, Dylon VanCanneyt, and the production crew started the installation by removing concrete and laying 158 feet of the WaterGuard drainage system around the perimeter of the basement. Then, they installed our recommended TripleSafe sump pump and our Basement To Beautiful Insulated Wall Panels. Lastly, the crew installed our Battery Backup System to ensure lasting reliability and to keep the sump pump running efficiently and effectively. The drainage system now properly guides water to the sump pump, and from there the water is pushed through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Our waterproofing system is backed by a lifetime warranty, and Tammy is glad she made the investment to protect her home.

A customer from Hastings, MN, got in contact with us when she began to their basement was becoming drafty and cool, even in the winter months. Our customer was concerned that her home was steadily becoming energy inefficient. When she called in, we set her up with our FREE estimate, which entitled her to a thorough inspection into the issue by one of our Design Specialists. Once the appointment was scheduled, our Design Specialist headed out to the property to take a deeper look at the problem. When he completed his walkthrough, he was able to make recommendations as to how we could help remedy the issue. He explained to our customer that the water intrusion and draft could be attributed to her basement windows, as they were older and outdated. He recommended she invest in our EverLast window and SunHouse. He explained that these double-paned windows would stop water intrusion at the source. The SunHouse window well cover brings natural light in and keeps cold winter winds from blowing against the panels. The customer agreed with our recommendations and work began shortly after. 

Our construction crew, led by Foreman Tremaine, ended up installing 3 of our EverLast window wells and SunHouse window well covers throughout the basement of the home. Once work was completed, the homeowner was happy to know that her drafty and energy-inefficient worries were in the past! 

A homeowner in Hastings, MN, noticed sections of their driveway were higher than others. Additionally, they found various cracks spread throughout the concrete. Knowing the issue would only worsen, the homeowner determined they needed professional assistance. The homeowner started their hunt for the best professional lifting and leveling company. After seeing American Waterworks has serviced their area many times, they decided to reach out to us. The homeowner went to our website and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the appointment was set, we sent out one of our Design Specialist, Nate, to survey the concrete. Once he completed the estimation, Nate alerted the homeowner the concrete was sinking and needed to be lifted and leveled. Nate recommended a solution to the homeowners that would solve all the issues with their concrete. The homeowners wanted to fix all their issues, so they decided to go with Nate's recommendations. Our Foreman, Dylon, and his crew were assigned to this case and received the recommended plan of action. The crew began by injecting the PolyLevel underneath the entire driveway and the sidewalk leading to the front door and garage door of the home. Once the PolyLevel installation was complete, the crew moved their attention to the joints and cracks throughout the concrete slab. The crew filled all the cracks with the NexusPro Crack Repair. Then, they removed all the previous joints and replaced them with the NexusPro Joint Sealant. After all the cracks and joints were properly filled, the crew could clean up their tools and move on to their next job. The homeowners were impressed with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to help another customer avoid replacing all of their concrete.
