American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A business owner from Fairmont, MN, was facing a serious issue with his basement. Whenever it rained, he could see water entering the space through holes in the wall, slowly running down the wall and leaving him with a headache. He was unsure of who to turn to for this issue, so he began to look for Fairmont, MN basement repairs. When he found our website, he found that he was impressed with other work we had done in our area, so he signed up for one of our FREE estimates. Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Ryan P, was headed out to the home. 

When Ryan arrived, he got right to work assessing the space. Upon completion, he was ready to make his recommendations for the next steps. First, Ryan recommended our TrenchDrain system, explaining that the TrenchDrain resembles half of a basement drainage pipe, with a grated opening fitted snugly on top. The grate is flush or slightly below the floor, eliminating any tripping hazard. It is uniquely designed to span doorways, hatchway entrances, and similar entryway doors. Any water passing over the drain is collected through the openings and redirected to your sump pump. Ryan had noted that the space lacked a sump pump, so he recommended our SuperSump plus system, an economical, yet effective, choice for ridding a basement of unwanted water. The homeowner agreed and scheduled the job for some time later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Chris N, led his team through the successful installation of 1 SuperSump plus, and 12 ft of TrenchDrain. Now, our customer can rest easy knowing his basement is protected from unwanted water! 

A company in Cologne, MN had a sunken concrete pad that was supporting a 10,000-pound electrical transformer. It had settled three inches, and the company owner was in search of the best and most cost-effective solution. He came across American Waterworks and our concrete repair solutions, so he got a FREE Estimate scheduled with our Design Specialist, Kevin. Kevin went to the property, inspected the concrete, and determined a solution that worked for them and their needs. After a thorough inspection, Kevin proposed our PolyLevel, which is a polyutherane foam that fills the voids under the concrete and stabilizes the surface. The company owner was satisfied with the quote and solution, so they moved forward with the project. 

Our Foreman, Brandon, and his crew member injected 33 pounds of our PolyLevel underneath the concrete pad. Our PolyLevel quickly restores the appearance and safety of the concrete, without the mess or cost of replacement or mudjacking. It is also adjustable for loads of all sizes and can be utilized within 15 minutes of injection. The company owner was happy with the repairs and had a great experience from start to finish!

A homeowner in Cologne, MN, found that water was seeping between the cracks of their blocks in the basement. Concerned by this finding, the homeowner searched for the best waterproofing company in their area. After hearing positive reviews from their neighbors, the homeowner decided to sign up for American Waterworks' FREE estimate. After finalizing the appointment, one of our Design Specialists, Eric, traveled to the home to inspect the possible damages. After his detailed investigation, Eric alerted the homeowners that their basement needed proper waterproofing. Eric provided a recommended solution to the homeowners to solve their water issues. Knowing this would be a long-term solution, the homeowners agreed to Eric's recommendations. 

Our Foreman, Arturo, and his crew traveled to the home and began installing the recommended waterproofing products. First, the crew installed the WaterGuard around the majority of the perimeter of the basement. Once the WaterGuard was installed, a feedline was installed across the basement floors. Next, the crew installed the TripleSafe Sump Pump and IceGuard to tie into the existing system. The crew installed all the waterproofing products and left the basement nice and dry. The homeowners were thankful they had a proper waterproofing system installed in their basement. American Waterworks is pleased to assist another valued customer.

A homeowner in Cologne, MN was wanting to find a solution for his sunken concrete apron right outside of the garage. It was frustrating to feel the large bump it had created every time he went in and out of the garage. He didn't know what the next best step was to fix the issue, so he went online to see what he could learn. Searching for concrete lifting services in Minnesota, one of the top results was the American Waterworks website. Once he found out about our FREE estimate appointments, he scheduled one for himself and awaited the arrival of one of our team members. Our Design Specialist, Tony Bach, visited the home to analyze the concrete apron and talk things through with the homeowner. Tony suggested installing our PolyLevel to lift the concrete slabs back up and be level with the garage floor again and the homeowner agreed. On the installation day, our Foreman, Troy Johnson, and his crew carefully injected just the right amount of PolyLevel to restore the space. They also sealed the joints with NexusPro for a smooth finish, and the homeowner was very happy with how it turned out.

Ruth O. in Mound, MN was suffering from water leaking in to her basement. She had been dealing with the problem for quite some time now and was tired of dealing with it. After researching local waterproofing company’s, she got in touch with the waterproofing experts at American Waterworks. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Chad Johnson, to her home to provide her with a solution and a free estimate. Chad worked with Ruth to develop the right waterproofing plan for her and her home. She liked the proposal that Chad developed, so she scheduled a date for our production team to install the waterproofing system.  

Our crew installed our WaterGuard drainage system around the stairs, where the water was leaking in. Then, they installed a SuperSump sump pump and a discharge line to the outside of the home. The water is now properly guided through the drainage system to the sump pump. Then, the sump pump pushes the water through the discharge line and the water is expelled from the home. Our waterproofing system is backed by a lifetime warranty, so Ruth now has peace of mind that her basement will remain dry and that she chose the right solution.
