A homeowner in Luverne, MN, noticed that his basement walls had been retaining water and was concerned it would damage his home. He decided to look into basement waterproofing services in the area and found our website. The homeowner was pleased to see that we offer FREE estimates and decided to schedule his.
In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Kevin B., arrived at the home to conduct a thorough inspection, answer any questions, and provide the best solution to the homeowner's issues. Kevin explained to the homeowner that one of the common causes of a damp basement is a failed footing drain. When this fails, water saturates the soil surrounding the foundation. Water enters through the joints between the wall and the footing. For this reason, Kevin recommended WaterGuard, our drain system that collects water at the perimeter of the basement and sends it to the sump pump, TripleSafe, our elite sump system that comes with three levels of protection, CleanSpace, our vapor wall barrier that collect water leaks and directs it to the drain system, and IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line that allows water to leave in case the sump pump pipes freeze. After reviewing Kevin's proposal, the homeowner happily agreed and scheduled the installation date.
In a couple of months, our Foreman, Gabriel R., and his crew arrived at the home to carry out the installation. They installed 1 TripleSafe sump system, 2 IceGuards, and 97ft of WaterGuard and CleanSpace. After they were done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

John S. of Luverne, MN had water leaking from the walls in his basement, so he gave American Waterworks a call to set up a Free Estimate. We sent out our Design Specialist, Eric Hazelton, to diagnose the problem and come up with a solution. After a careful inspection, Eric proposed our CleanSpace Wall System. John got all of his questions answered and felt comfortable, so he went ahead and scheduled the installation date.
Our foreman, Lane Schlobohm, and his production team installed 114 feet of our CleanSpace around the perimeter of the basement walls. Our CleanSpace Wall System is mechanically connected with plastic fasteners to walls so it never falls. It also prevents any humidity from invading the walls and gives the basement and clean and bright appearance with a 25-year-warranty. John was satisfied with the outcome, and was happy he no longer had to worry about his basement walls leaking!
Elaine and Ray H. of Luverne, MN had water leaking through the cracks of their foundation wall, causing them to have concerns about water moisture and the structural build of their home. They messaged our webchat and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Ryan Powell. Ryan went to their home to inspect the problems and come up with proper solutions. After a thorough inspection, Elaine and Ray felt comfortable with Ryan's proposal, so they went ahead with the project.
Our Foreman, Dylon VanCanneyt, and his team started the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which serves as an underground drain, prevents water clogs, and collects water seepage from basement walls. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the wall perimeter, which prevents humidity, mold, and water moisture, and covers any big holes or divots. Lastly, our team installed eight of our Geo-Lock C-Channel Anchors and eight of our GeoLock Wall Anchors, to straighten the cracked walls and stabilize them to their natural positions. To complete the work, our team covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. The homeowners were happy with the work and were grateful we were able to help them and their home repair needs!

Marvin and Carroll B. of Steen, MN had water leaking into their unfinished basement. They heard about American Waterworks through word of mouth, so they contacted our company. Our team came to the conclusion that Marvin and Carroll needed a reliable interior drainage system, so our crew installed our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain, which serves as an underground drain that collects water seepage and prevents mud clogs. This system guides water to the sump pump, which then gets discharged out of the basement. Marvin and Carroll were happy with the work that was done and could not believe the dramatic change!
