Thursday, November 7th, 2024 by Mattie Slavin

Challenge

A homeowner in Grand Forks, ND, was concerned after discovering their basement was suffering from cold drafts. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner knew they needed to find answers. The homeowner hoped to find a local company that could provide them with a solution, so they went to Google and looked into "Foundation repair near Grand Forks, ND". At the top of the reviews was us, American Waterworks, so they decided to take a closer look at our website. Impressed with our complete job photo albums, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, we sent one of our Design Specialists, James, to take a closer look.

Solution

As soon as James arrived, he began his detailed inspection of the property. During his inspection, James discovered that the exterior foundation was the cause of the interior issues. James drew up a proposal that would solve all the issues in the home. Once he completed drawing up the solution, James was able to present it to the homeowner. The homeowner decided to go ahead with the solution, and he sent the plans to the office to be approved. Our Logistics team built and scheduled the project, and then it was sent to our Foreman, Aaron, and his crew. Once they received the plans, Aaron and his crew traveled to the home to begin the project. First, Aaron and his team began by installing SilverGlo on the outside foundation. SilverGlo is a great way to seal off your walls, while also saving money on energy bills. Once the SilverGlo was attached, the crew shifted their focus to apply SentrySeal overtop. SentrySeal Membrane is attached to the exterior foundation to hold back moisture and ensure energy-efficient insulation. As soon as all the products were installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was relieved to know their basement was properly insulated.
