Argusville, ND, Water Damaged Basement Transformed

A homeowner in Argusville, ND, noticed puddles in their basement following a heavy rain storm. Worried about the long-term effects, the homeowner knew they needed to find a permanent solution. Unsure who to work with, the homeowner began looking into "basement waterproofing near Argusville, ND". One of the first companies to catch their eye was us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner took a closer look at our services. Impressed with our extensive list of services, the homeowner knew we were the best company for the project. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. After the estimate was finalized, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Ian. As soon as Ian arrived, he thoroughly inspected the basement. During the inspection, Ian discovered the water was sneaking into the south side of the home. To stop the water from continuing, Ian recommended installing several waterproofing products throughout the basement. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner decided to go ahead with Ian's suggestions. Next, Ian passed the plans along to our Logistics team to begin preparation. As soon as the Logistics team gave their final stamp of approval, it was assigned to our Foreman, Franklin, and his crew to begin. Franklin and his crew traveled to the home and started the installation. First, Franklin and his team began by installing WaterGuard along the basement perimeter. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew shifted their focus to taking out the old sump pump and replacing it with the SuperSump+. Once the SuperSump+ was secured, the crew shifted their focus to attaching CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. Franklin and his crew completed the installation, so they cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew, so they left a 5-star review. American Waterworks is happy to assist their homeowners in repairing their struggling basements.

Basement Walls Reinforced In Climax, MN

Andrea from Climax, MN, contacted us when she noticed that her basement walls were beginning to bow inward, showing signs of failing. Andrea was afraid that if left unresolved, she would risk compromising the home's structural integrity. She called American Waterworks for a FREE estimate, and shortly after the appointment was scheduled, our Design Specialist, Ian, headed out to the property. 

Ian recommended that Andrea invest in our PowerBrace Wall System and GeoLock Wall Anchors to correct the issue. 

Once approved, our Foreman and his crew got to work. First, 12 GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed; this innovative system permanently stabilizes foundation walls by anchoring them to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond the foundation. Our Foreman explained to Andrea that the anchors can be tightened over time. Then, the team got to work strategically placing PowerBraces around the basement, inserting 12 PowerBraces to stabilize the wall further. These were also installed with WaterGuard brackets for futureproofing. The PowerBrace system is an I-shaped beam that stabilizes and helps straighten the bow of the wall over time. The PowerBrace system is drilled into the home's support beams and the concrete on which the house lies. 

Andrea's peace of mind was restored, and she was glad she trusted our team to ensure that her basement walls were no longer an issue.

Damp Crawl Space Gets Encapsulated In Mapleton, ND

Sue, from Mapleton, ND, was growing more concerned over the state of her wet crawl space. If a a damp crawl space begins to rot, grow mold, or experience structural problems, issues can extend to all parts of the home. Sue wanted to understand why it was happening, make sure that the issue was corrected, and restore peace of mind moving forward. After deciding on our company, we set her up with a FREE inspection. A few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Ian, headed out to the property. Once he completed his walkthrough, he made recommendations as to how American Waterworks could help. 

First, Ian recommended our drainage matting; a dimpled matting that gets installed onto the floor of the crawl space, giving any excess water a route to flow through the space and be disposed of at an external site such as a drain or a sump system. Ian's second recommendation was our CleanSpace vapor barrier, a 100% waterproof tarp that works to trap any excess moisture in the space, redirecting it to the appropriate disposal site. Our customer agreed with the recommendations and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Jeremiah, and his team ended up installing 1938 sqft of the CleanSpace and a 4' tall Half Wall System in the crawl space. They also worked on installing two of our SmartDrains throughout the crawl space. Our SmartDrains are made specifically to track down water and keep it from invading the crawl space. Sue was very grateful for our team's work to restore her peace of mind so she can enjoy her home without worrying about water intrusion!
