Wet Basement Repair in Woodstock, MN
Challenge
Experiencing a wet basement can create more than just a headache. Problems like these can cause bigger issues such as molding, structural damage, rot, mildew, and health concerns. Some symptoms to look out for are wet floors, damp walls, standing water, musty smells, condensation, sump pump malfunctions, and leaky basement windows.
Homeowners in Woodstock, MN were seeing symptoms very similar to these, so they asked around about basement waterproofing contractors who service their area. One of the people they knew recommended American Waterworks, so they got in contact with our office staff and scheduled a no-obligation, FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist went to their home and inspected the problems they were seeing. Based on the issues, our Design Specialist proposed our WaterGuard Below-Drain System and our TripleSafe Sump Pump System. The homeowners got all of their questions answered about both products, so they signed our proposal and got a date scheduled for the installation.
Solution
To begin the project, our production team introduced themselves to the homeowners and ensured all of their questions were answered. After a thorough and complete introduction, our team got to work and jackhammered out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a waterway trench. Inside the trench, our crew installed our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain, which is one of our most popular interior drainage systems. Our drainage systems are an important part of any waterproofing system and prevent flooding. Our WaterGuard is designed to collect water seepage from basement walls, prevent water and mud clogs, and has easily accessible service ports when time for annual maintenance. Next, our crew installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System in the corner of the basement, which is the best sump pump that we provide for homeowners. Our TripleSafe solves all three problems in one unit and comes with a battery backup. The battery backup keeps the system running in case of a power failure. To complete the installation, our team filled the open-floor gaps with rock and pea gravel and applied new concrete over them. The homeowners were beautified by the transformation and had a wonderful experience!
