American Waterworks Before & After Photos

 A Minneapolis, MN,  homeowner had noticed a crack running across a concrete path used to get to the backyard of the home. Each time it rained, she could swear the slab would sink a bit more. She no longer wanted to deal with the issue, so she began to search for Minneapolis concrete repair. After she found our website, she signed up for her FREE estimate, and several weeks later, Eric H, one of our Design Specialists, headed out to the home. 

Eric completed his inspection, and when he finished, he informed the homeowner that we could address the sinking walkway with the help of our PolyLevel injection. He explained that PolyLevel is a dense polyurethane foam that expands as it's injected beneath sinking slabs, filling voids left by soil erosion and lifting the concrete back into place. Eric went on to say that, once the slab had been lifted, he recommended the use of our NexusPro. NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant that gets applied to the cracks and joints in the concrete, and serves as a barrier, as it's specially designed to stand up against harsh weather conditions. The homeowner agreed with Eric's plan and decided to schedule his job on the spot. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Dylon V, headed out to the home. He led his team through a flawless lift, level, and seal. Now, our customer can rest easy knowing her concrete won't be budging for years to come!

Alex F. of Minneapolis, MN wanted to get a radon mitigation system installed because his test came back with 6.9 pCi/L. He did his research and found American Waterworks on HomeAdvisor. He got our radon mitigation system installed by our Foreman, Dakota, and his crew member, Geno. Dakota started the installation in the utility room to the garage and through the roof, where the radon was able to escape into the open air. The purpose of our radon mitigation system is to expose radon out of the house. It can be installed in several different locations on the property depending on the basement, crawl space, or concrete slab.

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN had high radon levels and they wanted to get a radon mitigation system installed. Our crew of Dakota and Geno installed the system starting in the utility room, to the closet (as shown), to the garage, and through the roof. The purpose of the system is to pull radon from underneath the ground and guiding it through the home to the outside of the home so it can escape into the open air.

Benjamin L. of Bloomington, MN wanted to get his basement finished but he needed the proper waterproofing systems to be installed first before doing that. One of his peers referred American Waterworks so he went ahead and worked with our team. Our design specialist, Russ, inspected Benjamin's basement and drew out a detailed plan. Benjamin was confident in Russ's presentation and proposal, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Jeromy, and his crew installed our SuperSump Plus M53, which is a sump pump designed to discharge water out of the basement by keeping it away from the foundation. Benjamin was happy with the results and was grateful we could assist him with his needs.

A new homeowner from Minneapolis, MN, went down to her basement after a particularly hard rain and was shocked to notice that she had standing water in several parts of her basement. Frazzled by her discovery, she quickly took to the internet to search for Minneapolis basement waterproofing. After a few hours of combing through different websites, she landed on our page. She was thoroughly impressed by our basement waterproofing before and after images and decided to sign up for our FREE estimates. A few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Derek V, headed out to the home. After conducting his inspection, he met with the homeowner to discuss his findings. Derek wanted to use several of our products to complement each other and most importantly, to keep water off the basement floor. First, Derek recommended our CleanSpace vapor barrier be installed on the leaky walls. Derek explained that our CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof plastic vapor barrier that gets applied directly to unfinished basement walls, and works to direct water entering through the wall, downward, and into a perimeter drain, which, in this case, Derek wanted to be our WaterGuard. This unique French drain gets installed below the basement floor slab but on top of the foundation footing, keeping it out of the "mud zone" where similar drains tend to clog. Because the CleanSpace runs into the WaterGuard, it collects water entering from the wall, and small porous cracks or holes in the floor, giving the water a channel to flow to the appropriate disposal site. Derek noticed the lack of drainage from the basement itself and urged the homeowner to add one because of the large amount of water entering the space. Derek recommended our SuperSump sump pump, an effective and economical solution. This sump is engineered to help keep the basement dry and healthy for extended periods of time, even in times of heavy water intrusion. The SuperSump® includes a powerful Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement. Derek went on to say that the SuperSump can be installed with the optional UltraSump battery backup, which is designed to provide reliable, high-volume pumping capability when the electrical grid goes down. After Derek and the homeowner discussed options, she was thrilled to know that our solution would keep her basement dry and healthy for years to come and decided to schedule the installation for several weeks later. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Kiko P, led his team through the installation with a breeze. When they finished, they installed 14ft of WaterGuard, 1 SuperSump Sump Pump, 1 UltraSump battery backup, and 24 ft of CleanSpace throughout the basement. Now, our customer can enjoy her largest investment knowing that it is properly protected from unwanted water!
