Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Terri Z. in Rochester, MN had recently purchased a new home, but noticed some uneven floors and was concerned about the crawl space and structural integrity. She attended the Rochester Area Builders Home Show, saw our booth, and contacted our Customer Care Center to set up a FREE inspection. Terri met with one of our Design Specialists, Eric Hazelton, who worked side by side with her to construct a unique and permanent solution for her home. 

Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his production crew were able to successfully stabilize Terri’s crawl space by installing 18 SmartJacks throughout the space. The SmartJack Crawl Space Stabilizer is an adjustable supplemental support system used for sagging crawl spaces. The SmartJack can be installed year-round, and it’s portable size allows it to be installed in even the tightest of crawl spaces. Our foundation repair systems are backed by a lifetime warranty, so Terri can rest easy knowing her new home is protected. 

A customer contacted us in regards to bunnies and other pests entering their crawl space through previously sealed holes and wanted to know what could be done to fix the issue. Our Design Specialist, Dustin Loftus, went out to the property to assess the situation and recommended the homeowners remove the stone and debris in the crawl space, remove old spray foam in the stone walls and re-grout the holes, add CleanSpace encapsulation to keep warm air in, and add SmartJacks to add further stabilization the home.

Our Foreman, Kiko, installed the recommended fix on the properties and now the homeowners have peace of mind knowing that unwanted pests and loss of heat through the crawl space are all worries of the past.

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.  

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.

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!
