Damp Basement Gets a Solution in Wabasso, MN

A Wabasso, MN, homeowner faced a unique basement issue. Each time it rained, the basement fell victim to unwanted standing water. The homeowner had tried several DIY home remedies to fix the water intrusion, but nothing worked. She knew she needed to find a MN basement waterproofing contractor but didn't know where to start. One day she spotted one of our vehicles on the road and read that we offer basement waterproofing. She decided to set up her FREE estimate, and several weeks later, Kevin B, one of our Design Specialists,  headed out to the home. 
When Kevin arrived at the property, he got right to work assessing the basement. When he finished, he met with the homeowner to deliver his recommendations. First, Kevin began by stating that he wanted to install our Basement to Beautiful wall panels, the superior choice for a dry, energy-efficient basement. These insulated panels provide 24% more energy savings than conventional foam products, creating a warm protective blanket around your basement that will never rot or support mold growth. Next, Kevin wanted to install our WaterGuard.This unique French drain gets installed below the slab of the basement floor, atop the footing of the foundation. It works to catch water coming up through the floor, giving it a channel to flow freely to a proper disposal site. Because the basement lacked a means of disposal, Kevin wanted to use our TripleSafe sump pump, the most reliable sump in our lineup. These powerful pumps provide three levels of protection for your basement and your peace of mind. For normal functioning, the TripleSafe has a powerful cast-iron Zoeller 1/3 horsepower pump set at the lowest level. For times of heavy water intrusion, this machine boasts a more powerful Zoeller 1/2 hr pump set a bit higher in the liner. The homeowner agreed with all of Kevin's recommendations and scheduled the job on the spot. 

The day of the project finally rolled around. Our Foreman, Jeromy A, was able to lead his team through the successful installation of 170ft of WaterGuard, 1 TripleSafe, and 49 ft of Basement to Beautiful panels. When they had finished, the homeowner was thrilled to know that his basement waterproofing issues were in the past!

Sump Pump Upgrade in Paynesville, MN

Lorelle J. from Paynesville, MN was experiencing excess water build-up due to the old sump pump that was installed in the home. This water build-up was damaging other parts of her home including the foundation. Lorelle then contacted the Appointment Center here at American Waterworks to claim her FREE estimate entitling her to a free home inspection. Once an appointment was scheduled,  our Design Specialist then attended the home and began a thorough inspection of the home and the perimeter of the home to properly diagnose the issues Lorelle is experiencing and provide a proper solution that would not only eliminate the issue but prevent any other issues from arising. Once the inspection was completed our Design Specialist recommended that Lorrelle replace the old sump pump and invest in the TripleSafe Sump Pump system that we offer here at American WaterWorks. Lorelle agreed and proceeded to schedule a date of installation. 

 

Our Foreman, Julio Murillo, and his designated crew then proceeded with the installation process by taking out the pre-existing sump pump and replacing it with the Triple-Safe Sump Pump System. The Triple-Safe Sump Pump System has three levels of protection which solves all water problems a homeowner may experience. Along with the Triple-Safe Sump Pump comes a battery backup which helps in the case of a power outage, keeping the basement dry and secure. To finish the job the crew proceeded to fill the gaps with engineer fill to prevent any sediment from entering the sump pump basket and affecting the pumps. Once backfilled the team then proceeds to put a layer of concrete to provide a finishing look. Lorelle was happy with the job and had a great experience with the production crew!!
