American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A homeowner was worried about his basement after a heavy rainfall, so he went downstairs to see if any damage was done. Sure enough, he found some small puddles of water on the floor and knew that his pump was most likely not working properly. He went online in search of a solution and came across the American Waterworks website. Our FREE estimates were intriguing to him because he liked the idea of speaking with a professional before agreeing to any installations. One of our Design Specialists, Dave Seawell, went to the home and informed the homeowner of our quality waterproofing products. He developed a detailed plan for his recommendations and once they were approved, the project was ready to be completed. Our Foreman, Lane Schlobohm, and his crew went to the site and installed the WaterGuard basement drain system, TripleSafe sump pump, and CleanSpace wall vapor barrier. The homeowner was very impressed with the work done by our crew and happy with the final results.

A homeowner in Buffalo, MN, recently learned that radon is a highly toxic gas that can be found in households. He learned that radon is a by-product of uranium, a naturally occurring radioactive element that can be found in soil. As the soil decays, it releases radon. Concerned that his family is unknowingly breathing in the toxic fumes, he decided to purchase a radon testing kit. After several days, the test results were above 4pCi/L and the homeowner began searching for radon mitigation services in the area. He found our website and decided to contact us to schedule his FREE estimate. 

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Tony B., arrived at the home to answer any questions the homeowner had and to create a design where our radon mitigation system would be installed. After the homeowner reviewed Tony's proposal, he decided to move forward with the project. 

In two months, our Foreman, Dakota M., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They began by installing a PVC pipe at the footing of the home. This would then connect to the radon mitigation system that is installed outside of the home. This is done this way so that our system can suction out the radon-rich air before it can get into the home and spew it outdoors. Once the crew was done, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Now, our customer and his family can breathe fresh clean air! When was the last time you tested the radon levels of your home? Schedule your FREE estimate today by clicking HERE!

A homeowner in Buffalo, MN, was facing major water issues in his basement. He often found standing water and was concerned that it would cause permanent damage to his home. He began looking for basement waterproofing services in the area and found our website. After browsing our website and growing impressed by our reviews, the homeowner contacted us to schedule his FREE estimate. 

In about a week, our Design Specialist, Lance S., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, Lance explained to the homeowner that a failed footing drain is one of the most common causes of a wet basement. When water saturates the soil surrounding the foundation, it can make its way through joints and cracks, eventually leading into your basement. To fix this issue, Lance recommended WaterGuard, our below-the-floor drainage system that collects water around the perimeter of the basement and safely sends it to the sump pump, and CleanSpace, our highly flexible and durable vapor wall barrier that prevents water from permeating the walls. After looking over the proposal, the homeowner happily moved forward with the project.

In a couple of months, our Foreman, Diego B., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew installed a total of 21 ft of WaterGuard and CleanSpace. After they were done, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Now, our customer can have a dry and secure basement. Have you noticed water leaking into your basement? Click HERE to schedule your FREE estimate today!

Debbie D. in Lonsdale, MN had an older home with a severely cracked foundation and inward bowing walls. She was concerned about the structural integrity of her foundation and worried that it would negatively influence the value of her home. She started doing some research online and was happy to learn that American Waterworks has been the leading foundation repair contractor in the region for 30 years! We sent one of our Design Specialists, Shane Nephew, to inspect her home and propose the best, cost-effective solution. Debbie was impressed with the presentation and our products, and she moved forward with the installation. 

Our Foreman, Cole Brinkman, and his production crew were able to successfully stabilize Debbie’s foundation with the installation of 13 PowerBraces along the deteriorating foundation walls. The team started the installation by securing brackets into the floor as well as the rim joists. Then, they installed the PowerBraces into the brackets and tightened them as far as they could go. PowerBraces do not require outside excavation, so it is less invasive than other foundation repair options. Debbie is happy with the results, and she is glad she made the investment to protect the foundation of her home!
