Sump Pump Saves Basement in Saint Paul, MN

A Saint Paul, MN, homeowner was facing a unique issue. Each time it rained, he could see water entering through a corner of his basement, creating a small puddle. The homeowner didn't want that small puddle to turn into a larger issue, so he decided to contact a reputable basement waterproofing company in MN. When he found our website, he signed up for his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our. Design Specialist, Derek V, headed out to the home. 

When Derek arrived, he got right to work inspecting every inch of the basement. When he concluded, he met with the homeowner to deliver his recommendations. Derek explained that water problems commonly occur in the corner of the room and that the homeowner was right to call when he did. Derek wanted to use two of our products to address the water intrusion. First, he recommended our WaterGuard drain, explaining that it's the most effective way to stop basement flooding. The WaterGuard is a French drain that is designed to be installed below the floor slab, resting on top of the foundation footing. Because of its placement, the drain stays out of the "mud zone" where other drains tend to clog. It works to catch water entering through the floor, directing it to the appropriate disposal site, which Derek wanted to be our SuperSump plus. Our SuperSump sump pump is an effective and economical solution to combat water intrusion. It's engineered to help keep the basement dry and healthy for extended periods, even in times of heavy water intrusion. It boasts a powerful Zoeller 1/3 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 liked the sound of the two products working together, and decided to schedule her project for some time later. 

When the day of the project rolled around, our team, led by their Foreman, Victor S, effortlessly installed 100ft of WaterGuard, and 1 SumpSump sump pump in the basement. Now, our customer can enjoy the rain without worries that it will end up in his basement!

Uneven Concrete Walkway Gets Restored in Saint Paul, MN

A Saint Paul, MN, homeowner was beginning the process of selling his home. But before he could contact realtors, he knew there were several areas of his home that had to be updated to ensure he got the best value for his home. He began with his front concrete walkway, which had been slowly sinking over the years, creating numerous trip hazards and an eyesore. Figuring the easiest way to fix the issue was by ripping out the concrete and repouring, he searched for "concrete replacement near me" and found American Waterworks. He decided to sign up for one of our FREE estimates, and a few weeks later, Jesse W, one of our Design Specialists, made a stop out at the home. 

Jesse completed a thorough inspection of the area, and when he completed it, he met with the homeowner. Jesse began by saying that the homeowner was correct to contact us. He explained that, in his opinion, the concrete could be restored at a much cheaper price point than full replacement. He went on to say that he was recommending our PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam that expands when it's injected beneath sinking concrete. It works to fill voids left by soil erosion, and in the process, slowly lifts the sunken slab back to its desired location. Jesse went on to say that, once the lift had been completed, he wanted to utilize our NexusPro. This silicone-based sealant goes hand in hand with PolyLevel, as it's applied to the cracks and joints in the newly leveled concrete and works to prevent unwanted moisture from getting to the vulnerable soil below. The homeowner, thrilled to know that Jesse's recommendation would not only be cheaper but effective as well, decided to schedule his project for several weeks later. 

On the day of the project, our team, led by their Foreman, Pat B, was able to lift, level, and seal the concrete effortlessly. Now our customer can confidently list his home knowing everything, down to the concrete, is in tip-top shape! 

Water Leakage in West Saint Paul, MN Basement

Mardele W. in West Saint Paul, MN was suffering from water leaking into her basement and she was tired of cleaning up the mess every time there was a heavy rain. She decided to contact American Waterworks for a FREE estimate, so one of our Design Specialists, Jeremy Radtke, went to her home to inspect her basement and design a solution. Jeremy worked closely with Mardele to create the best waterproofing plan for her and her basement. She enjoyed working with Jeremy and was pleased with his proposal, so she scheduled to have our waterproofing system installed.

Our Foreman, Austin Lucas, and his crew installed a full perimeter of our WaterGuard drainage system around her basement floor. They also installed a SuperSump sump pump in the corner of the basement. The drainage system now properly guides water to the sump pump, and from there the sump pump pushes the water through the discharge line and expels it from the home. Our drainage system is backed by a lifetime guarantee, so Mardele has peace of mind that her basement will always be protected from water. She is glad she chose to protect her home for the long-term.
