A Woodbury, MN, homeowner was in the process of looking for someone to evaluate her crawl space. Over the years, she had noticed a foul smell originating from the space, leading her to believe that the crawl space could be humid or take on water, creating unhealthy air in the home. She took to the internet and searched for the 'best crawl space repair near me' and quickly found American Waterworks. After looking through other jobs we had completed in her area, she confidently signed up for her FREE estimate.
Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Michel R, was headed out to the home. When Michel arrived, he got down to business and entered the space to complete his inspection. When he finished his inspection, he met with the homeowner to go over his plan for the crawl space. He began by commending the homeowner for seeking help, explaining that the health of a crawl space is incredibly important to the overall health of the home. Michel explained that we have 3 products that could address the issue, our CleanSpace for crawl space, drainage matting, and our SmartDrain. Michel elaborated, saying that the CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof tarp-like material that gets installed directly onto the unfinished walls of the crawl space, functioning to direct water entering through the walls downward, and most importantly, keeping it off the basement floor. The drainage matting, a dimpled mat, goes down before the CleanSpace to give the water entering the space a channel to flow to a disposal site. The SmartDrain is an innovative product that alerts you to a leak with an audible alarm and drains the water away to a drywell under the CleanSpace liner to protect against water damage. The homeowner, impressed with Michel's comprehensive assessment, signed on the spot.
A month or so later, the job was well underway. Led by our Foreman, Diego B, our team successfully installed 574 sqft of CleanSpace, 456 sqft of drainage matting, and 1 SmartDrain. Now, our homeowner can go back to worrying about more important matters, all the while being confident in her homes healthy crawl space!
An Oakdale, MN, homeowner was dealing with an outdated sump pump. The old system had a very hard time keeping up during times of heavy water intrusion, leaving the homeowner with saturated carpets and standing water. The homeowner wanted to address the issue before the Spring melt to ensure her basement would be properly safeguarded. He began to look for sump repair companies in MN and quickly found American Waterworks. He signed up for his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Ryan K, was headed out to the home.
Upon his arrival, Ryan launched right into his inspection. When he finished, he met with the homeowner to go over the options for the basement. Ryan recommended our TripleSafe sump pump, the most reliable pump in our lineup. This powerful machine boasts three levels of protection for your basement and your peace of mind. The homeowner was thrilled with Ryan's recommendation, and the two scheduled the project.
Several weeks later, our Foreman, Arturo M, and his team ended up installing 3 of our TripleSafe sum systems in the basement of the home. Now our customer can get back to worrying about what matters!
John H. of Maplewood, MN was tired of having sunken steps on his front porch. He saw an advertisement for American Waterworks and was interested to learn more about our concrete repair solution. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Kevin McWithey, to his home to inspect his concrete problem and design a solution. Kevin assured him that we could have his steps raised and leveled within a matter of hours by using our PolyLevel injection. John was happy to hear this, so he set a date for the injection.
Our concrete repair experts, Jared Wroblewski and Trevor Ellingson, drilled small holes into the concrete slabs where the foam needed to be injected. They injected the foam until the steps were raised and leveled back to their original position. John is glad he found a concrete repair solution that is a faster, durable and more affordable alternative to traditional concrete repair. The process only took a couple of hours, and now John and his family are able to enjoy a beautiful front porch for years to come!
Timothy M.'s front steps and sidewalk were cracked and uneven, making him want to consider his home's value. He got in touch with our office staff and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Michel. Michel went to Timothy's home and carefully inspected the concrete. Michel proposed our PolyLevel and NexusPro to repair Timothy's concrete. He was confident in our proposal, so he moved forward with the process.
Our Foreman, Troy, and his team injected 190 pounds of our PolyLevel and 15 feet of our NexusPro. Our PolyLevel is a special foam that lifts concrete and stabilizes the surface. Along with that, it also cures within 15 minutes of injection and is waterproof, unlike mudjacking. Our NexusPro is a unique sealant that gives the concrete a neat appearance and prevents moisture from invading the soil beneath the concrete. To complete the project, Troy performed a final walkthrough with Timothy to ensure he was happy with the project.

A customer from St. Paul, MN, contacted us because of water coming in from the foundation. Our Design Specialist went out to the property and recommended the customer invest in our WaterGuard system. This particular system is typically used in basements and is the premier choice for basement waterproofing as it is installed below the floor, but rests atop the foundation, keeping it out of the "mud zone", making it harder to clog.
Our Foreman, Jose, installed the WaterGuard system and now the homeowners can resume basement activities without worrying about water damage dampening the fun!
