Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Oelwein, IA, noticed an odd odor around their home. After taking a closer look, the homeowner determined the smell was coming from their basement. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner knew they needed to look into "crawl space repair near me". One of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner knew we were the ideal company for their project and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Ryan. A few days later, Ryan traveled to the home to begin the detailed inspection of the crawl space. After completing the inspection, Ryan confirmed that the crawl space needed to be fully encapsulated. Knowing this was the best plan of action, the homeowner agreed and worked with Ryan to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Chris, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the project. First, Chris and his crew started by encapsulating the entire crawl space. The crew laid Drainage Matting on the crawl space floors. Once the Drainage Matting was laid, the crew shifted to attaching CleanSpace to the unfinished walls and floors. Once all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their matierals and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew.

After being sick of outrageous heating bills, Ms. Dicken decided to contact American Waterworks for suggestions on waterproofing and increasing the energy efficiency of her dirt crawl space.

Ms. Dicken was very impressed with Mac's ability to customize a plan that will not only save her thousands on heating bills, but also prevent any future mold growth and intrusions from insects and rodents who thrive in these environments.  

A Rochester, MN, homeowner had noticed a musty smell wafting through his home in the past few months. He had tried several remedies to get the odor removed from his home but nothing was working. He was aware that American Waterworks, a local company in his town, worked on unhealthy crawl spaces, so he decided to schedule his FREE estimate. Several weeks later, Gary S, headed out to the home to see what could be done. 

After completing his thorough inspection, Gary informed the homeowner that the crawl space was taking unnecessary water and recommended two of our products to address the damp basement. First, Gary wanted to use our CleanSpace for crawl spaces. This 100% waterproof tarp-like material gets adhered directly to the walls of the crawl space and works to collect water entering the space through holes or cracks in the wall, directing it downward. Next, Gary wanted to use our drainage matting. Crawl space liners rest directly on the crawl space floor. If your crawl space is flooding, water can be trapped underneath, never making it to your perimeter drain. The raised dimples on our CleanSpace® Drainage Matting give the water flooding into your crawl space a channel underneath your crawl space liner. This directs the water flooding your crawl space to the appropriate disposal site. The homeowner liked the sound of Gary's plan, and scheduled the job on the spot. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Jeromy A, led his team through the installation of 450 sqft of Drainage Matting and another 528 sqft of CleanSpace. Now, our customers can rest easy knowing foul odors have been handled! 

Thomas P. in Rochester, MN started looking into having his crawl space encapsulated because he noticed that he was losing energy from that space and that moisture had started accumulating in there. While researching contractors that could help him with this, he found American Waterworks and thought we looked like a good fit for him. He contacted us and we sent one of our Design Specialists, Rick Weber, to his home to give him a free estimate and provide him with a solution. 

Thomas was pleased with Rick's plan and the crawl space encapsulation products that we offer, so he set a date with us to install our CleanSpace barrier. Our production crew installed our TerraBlock insulation on the crawl space floor and then installed CleanSpace on top of it and along the walls. This ensures that no heat will be leaving the crawl space and wasting energy. It also protects the crawl space from any moisture building up and protects the air quality in the home.

Dennis T. in Rochester, MN had a dirt crawl space that was accumulating excess moisture and it was causing him to have a higher energy bill. Dennis had used our services before and had a great experience, so he knew he could trust our team to waterproof his crawl space. He contacted us to get a FREE estimate, so we sent one of our Design Specialists, Dustin Loftus, to his home to provide him with a solution.

Dennis was pleased with the proposal that Dustin developed to transform his crawl space, so he scheduled the installation.

One of our waterproofing experts, Juan Pena, and his crew installed drainage matting on the dirt crawl space floor, Foamax along the crawl space walls, and our CleanSpace barrier to seal off the space from dirt, excess moisture and pests. The Foamax walls insulate the space which makes the basement much warmer and saves Dennis money on his energy bill. Dennis is glad he chose a long-term solution to protect his home from the consequences that typically come with having a dirt crawl space.
