Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A customer from Maple Grove, MN reached out to us with concerns about water entering their crawlspace, beneath their home, and raising humidity levels. This was a major concern for them since the foundation of the home could be affected causing major issues to the home. This customer then contacted our Appointment Center at American Waterworks to schedule their FREE estimate. Once the appointment was set our Design Specialist then was able to go beneath their home to identify the best solution for the homeowner. Our Design Specialist believed that this customer would benefit if they invested in our CleanSpace Waterproofing solution. This solution seals the crawlspace to prevent issues such as pests, mold, moisture, and any fiberglass insulation located in the crawlspace.

Crawl spaces tend to be dark and creepy for small children. For adults, they're dark and creepy for other reasons. For instance, they're known for being the source of pooling water, and bowing wood can mean the foundation of the home is unstable, creating unease in the back of the mind. So when a homeowner from Rush City, MN, contacted us about their unstable crawl space, we knew we had to act fast. Our Design Specialist, Ryan, went to the property to assess the situation and recommended a few fixes that would transform the space. He recommended our SmartJack system for crawl spaces to keep the area stable. This particular system provides supplemental support to your failing structure, but can also lift failing floor joists or beams over time, restoring them to their original position. Our Foreman, Gabriel, was able to make the installation with the help of his fantastic crew. Now, the homeowners don't need to fear their crawl space and the various issues it could pose. 

Roger B. in Spring Park, MN noticed that the roof of his crawl space was sagging, and he had a crack on the exterior wall of his home where the crawl space is. He also noticed that he had a lot of moisture in his crawl space and he thought he might be losing energy through that space because he was dealing with high energy costs. He found American Waterworks and was pleased to see that we offer both waterproofing and foundation repair.

We sent one of our Design Specialists, Shane Nephew, to his home to find a solution and give him a FREE estimate. Roger was pleased with the proposal that Shane developed so he scheduled a date for the installation.

Our production crew removed the debris and installed our crawl space waterproofing system which consisted of, drainage matting along the floor, SilverGlo, CleanSpace and a Sedona dehumidifier. Then we installed 5 SmartJacks in the crawl space to support the beams of the flooring. To stabilize the home, we installed 10 push piers under the foundation.The entire process took a couple of days, but Roger and his family will benefit from this permanent solution for a lifetime. Our waterproofing and foundation repair systems are backed by a lifetime warranty, so Roger can rest easy knowing his home is protected.

Samantha M. and Anthony W. of Pine City, MN had wet and muggy crawl space that needed to be inspected. They called American Waterworks to schedule a Free Estimate. We sent out our Design Specialist, Shane Nephew, to look at the issue and come up with a solution. Samantha and Anthony were comfortable with the proposal, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Cole Brinkman, and his production team began and completed the installation by installing our CleanSpace Wall System. Our CleanSpace is made to prevent any mold and mildew, and provides the space with a clean and bright appearance. Cole and his crew finished the project by making sure the homewoners were happy with the outcome! 

Marie of Anoka, MN, was beginning to notice that she was experiencing pooling water in the crawl space beneath her home. She wanted to know what could be done to fix the issue, so she gave us a call. When she got in contact with us, she used her FREE estimate with us to have our Design Specialist, Shane, out to her property to do a thorough inspection. When Shane completed, he was able to make a recommendation as to how American Waterworks could best help Marie. He suggested that we wrap the entire space in our CleanSpace to catch any water entering the space through cracks or porous holes in the walls of the space. Next, he wanted to use our drainage matting to ensure that any water would find its way to the appropriate disposal site. The raised dimples on this matting give the water flooding into the crawl space a natural channel underneath the crawl space liner that directs the water to a perimeter drain or sump pump. Marie agreed with Shane's recommendations and work began shortly after. Our Foreman, Chris, was able to make quick work of their installations. They ended up wrapping the basement in 460 sqft of CleanSpace and used another 260 sqft of our drainage matting on the floor of the crawl space. The crew finished the job by using our Spray Foam, a sprayable foam used to insulate the remaining cracks between the floor and ceiling joists. 

When the job was completed, Marie was satisfied with the work and happy to know that her waterproofing issues were in the past!
