Leaking Walls Waterproofed in Windom, MN

Due to a recent snowstorm in Windom, MN, the snow piled around the foundation of the home. Knowing the weather would warm up and cause all the snow to melt, the homeowner was concerned it would seep into their basement. The homeowner knew he should get his basement inspected to make sure it was prepared for all the water that would pool around the foundation. They soon contacted us to schedule their FREE estimate.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist arrived at the home to provide a thorough inspection of the basement. During the inspection, our Design Specialist tested the humidity levels and determined which areas in the foundation had water leaks. After reporting their findings to the homeowner, our Design Specialist began working on a detailed solution to waterproof the basement. Our Design Specialist recommended installing WaterGuard, our interior drainage system that directs water leaks to the sump pump system, CleanSpace, our vapor wall liner that prevents water vapor from permeating the walls, SuperSump+, our extremely reliable sump pump system capable of removing 2,200 gallons of water per hour, and IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge system that allows water to escape in freezing temperatures. After reviewing the proposal, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Gus R., arrived at the home for the installation. The crew successfully installed 26ft of WaterGuard and CleanSpace, 1 SuperSump+, and 1 IceGuard.

Radon Mitigation System Installed in Page, ND

A homeowner in Page, ND, had recently learned of the health risk of radon and was concerned their family was unknowingly breathing in the toxic fumes. The homeowner decided to purchase a radon testing kit, and after several days, the test results were above 4pCi/L. Knowing they needed a radon mitigation system installed in their home, the homeowner contacted us to schedule their FREE estimate. 

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Dylan J., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, Dylan took a look around the home to see where the best place to install our radon mitigation system would be. After talking to the homeowner, they came to the agreement of having it installed through the sump pump system so that it can suction out the radon-rich gas and expel it from the home through the roofline. 

In about a month, our Radon Sales and Service Technician arrived at the home for the installation. After successfully installing the system and ensuring it was working properly, he cleaned up him equipment and left the home.

Now, our customer and their family can breathe in fresh air! When was the last time you tested the radon levels of your home? Click HERE to schedule your FREE estimate today!

Cracked Foundation and Wet Basement in Storden, MN

Marcus D. in Storden, MN had two cracked foundation walls in his basement and he also had water seeping in. Marcus began to seek advice and one of his friends recommended us since they previously enjoyed the work we did for them. Marcus trusted his friend’s opinion, so he called us to come out for a FREE estimate.

Our Design Specialist, Eric Hazelton, went to his home to evaluate the problem and find a solution for him. Eric developed a thorough plan to waterproof his basement and to stabilize his foundation. Marcus was pleased with the proposal, so they scheduled the installation. 

Our crew installed 12 Geo-Lock wall anchors along two walls in the basement. Once the anchors were in place and tightened, the walls were straightened and permanently stabilized. To waterproof his Marcus' basement, our team installed a full perimeter of our WaterGuard drainage system which guides water to his SuperSump sump pump. From there, the water is pumped through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Our wall anchors and our waterproofing system are backed by a lifetime warranty, so Marcus has peace of mind that his basement is permanently protected.

Drafty Crawl Space Gets Sealed in Wheaton, MN

Terry from Wheaton, MN had begun to notice a draft originating from the crawl space below his home. He was worried that his crawl space was the culprit behind high energy bills in the colder months. After doing some research, he decided to call our office to see if we could help. We set him up with our FREE estimate. A few weeks later our Design Specialist, Kole, headed out to the property to see what could be done. When he arrived, he completed a thorough inspection. Once he concluded, he was ready to make some recommendations. He wanted to use our CleanSpace vapor barrier to address the drafty space. He explained that our CleanSpace for crawl spaces gets applied to the walls of the space and works to repel any humidity, moisture, or outside air. Terry agreed and work began a few weeks later. 

Our Foreman, Luis, and his team ended up installing 154 ft of our CleanSpace throughout the crawl space. Now Terry can enjoy the winter months without worrying that his drafty crawl space is running up a high energy bill. 

Sump Pump Gets Transformation in Wheaton, MN

John from Wheaton, MN was beginning to suspect that his sump pump was in need of an update. He noticed that the system wasn't performing as it used to, and as a result, unwanted water was finding its way into the lower levels of his home. John was afraid that the water would cause a more expensive issue to fix down the road if it wasn't properly addressed. He came across our business and decided to give us a call. We set John up with our FREE estimate and a few weeks later our Design Specialist, Ian, headed out to the property to see what could be done. Ian recommended our TripleSafe sump pump to replace the older model. Ian explained that the TripleSafe is our most reliable sump pump system, providing three levels of protection for your basement and your peace of mind. John agreed with his recommendations and work began weeks later. 

Our Foreman, Zach, installed the new sump pump with no issues. Now John can head into the wetter months without worrying that his sump pump isn't equipped to handle large amounts of water.
