Leaky Basement Gets Upgraded in Hamburg, MN

A Hamburg, MN, homeowner was growing frustrated over a corner of her basement that was taking on water. Not wanting the issue to worsen, she decided to begin the search for MN basement waterproofing companies. When she found our website, she decided to claim her FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Eric H, headed out to the home. 

Once Eric finished his walkthrough, he met with the homeowner to deliver his findings and recommendations. He explained to the homeowner that American Waterworks could fix the issue with the help of two of our products. First, Eric wanted to use our CleanSpace vapor barrier. This 100% waterproof tarp-like material gets applied directly to the wall, and works to catch water entering the space through cracks and holes in the wall. The CleanSpace slowly directs the water down the wall and into our WaterGuard. Eric wanted to use our WaterGuard to catch water entering from the walls, as this below-floor drain works to direct water to the proper disposal site. This drain sits below the floor, on top of the footing of the foundation, but out of the mud zone, where other drains tend to clog. The homeowner liked the sound of the plan and scheduled the work for a few weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Kevin, and his team were able to install 59 ft of WaterGuard and CleanSpace throughout the basement. Now, our customer is thrilled to know she no longer needs to worry about a damp basement!
