American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A homeowner from Easton, MN, got in contact with us when she noticed that her walls were leaking after a heavy rainstorm. The homeowner was afraid that the leaky walls were a symptom of a bigger problem. After seeing our waterproofing ads on TV, she decided to give us a call to see if we could help. A few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Ryan M, headed out to the home to see how serious the issue was. 

Upon completion of the inspection, Ryan reassured the homeowner that while the issue was serious, American Waterworks had the solutions and techniques to ensure that no more unwanted water would find it's way into her space. He explained that leaky walls can be combated with two of our products, WaterGuard and CleanSpace. Ryan elaborated, explaining that the CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof tarp-like material that gets installed directly to the basement walls. Its purpose is to direct any water entering through the walls down, along the barrier, and into the WaterGuard, a below-floor drain that works to collect water entering from the ground or the walls, directing it to the proper disposal site and keeping it off the floor. The homeowner agreed and the work was scheduled to be completed a few weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Jose, and his team ended up installing 96 ft of WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement and another 96 ft of CleanSpace. Now that the job is complete, our customer is happy to know she no longer needs to worry about her basemen in times of heavy rain!

Jeri H. in Lakota, IA was concerned about her bowing basement walls. She contacted American Waterworks after she was referred by a friend, and we sent one of our Design Specialists, Dylan Woitas, to meet with her. Dylan evaluated the situation and proposed a solution for her home. Jeri approved of the design and moved forward with an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Jesus Covarrubias, and his production crew were able to successfully stabilize the bowing foundation wall with 6 PowerBraces. The PowerBraces halted further deterioration of the wall, and over time, can be tightened to make the wall straighter and more vertical. Jeri was pleased with the installation and her peace of mind has been restored!

Denise H. in Saint Paul, MN was experiencing high humidity in her dirt crawl space and she noticed bugs were entering through that space because it was not encapsulated. Denise wanted to make her crawl space healthier and more energy-efficient, so she contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists, Jeremy Radtke, went onsite to inspect her crawl space and develop a personalized solution. Denise was impressed with our products and Jeremy’s thorough plan, so she chose to move forward with the encapsulation.

Our production team removed the debris from her crawl space and leveled the dirt as best as they could. Then, they installed a SmartDrain and condensation pump. They laid our CleanSpace vapor barrier along the floor and FoamMax walls panels along to walls. Lastly, they sprayed the rim joists with our spray foam insulation and they installed a SaniDry dehumidifier. The combination of these waterproofing and encapsulation systems makes the crawl space a dry, energy-efficient, and healthier space. Denise was very pleased with the finished product and was thrilled with how hard working our crew was!

A homeowner in Woodbury, MN had been enjoying his basement space when he noticed a small puddle of water that had formed at the base of one of the walls. He grew concerned and didn't want the issue to get worse if he left it to be. He knew with all of the heavy rainfall they had been having recently, one of his friends had a similar problem in their basement. The homeowner gave them a call and discovered how they solved the problem: American Waterworks. He decided to check out our website and was eager to schedule an appointment when he noticed our FREE estimate offers. When we sent over Design Specialist Ryan Powell to talk to the homeowner and inspect the site, Ryan knew just what would solve the problem. He explained that using our WaterGuard system, which is specifically designed to intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and send it away safely, could help the issue. The homeowner agreed to Ryan's plans and after they were approved, they were given to our Foreman, Lane Schlobohm, and his crew to carry out the installations. The crew carefully installed the WaterGuard system and cleaned up the materials, leaving the basement in great condition and leaving the homeowner with a smile on his face at the water-free space.

A homeowner from Woodbury, MN, had taken one too many tumbles over a section of uneven concrete on her backyard patio. She didn't want anyone else to fall victim to the sinking concrete, so she began the search for a MN concrete repair company. When she came across our website, she decided to sign up for her FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Mac C, headed out to the home. 

Once Mac finished his walkthrough, he met with the homeowner to deliver his findings. Mac explained that concrete can sink for a variety of reasons but that American Waterworks could help restore the slabs. Mac said we would use our PolyLevel method. PolyLevel is a dense polyurethane foam that expands when it's injected beneath sinking concrete slabs. It works to fill voids left by soil erosion, slowly lifting the concrete back into place. When the lift has been completed, our team installs our NexusPro. NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant that gets applied to the cracks and joints of the newly lifted concrete. It works to prevent moisture from getting to the vulnerable soil below.  The homeowner liked the sound of Mac's plan, and scheduled the job for several weeks later. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Jordan, and his team completed the lift and level with no issues. Now, our customer can enjoy her outdoor oasis without worries of taking a tumble!
