Buffalo, MN's Skilled Foundation Repair Experts

In Buffalo, MN a homeowner was alarmed to find some puddles of water in one of the rooms of his basement. His initial thought was that something was wrong with his old sump pump, but he wanted to get a professional's opinion to be sure. He went online to look for a waterproofing service in his area by searching "basement repair contractors." The homeowner sifted through the results, but only one company really stood out to him: American Waterworks. He signed up for one of our FREE no-obligation estimates and was later greeted by one of our Design Specialists, Dave Seawell. Dave informed the homeowner of his recommendation to install some of our quality products that would work to stop water from entering the basement room. The homeowner was excited to hear that something could be done, and he agreed to the installations. Our Foreman, Lane Schlobohm, went to the site with his crew, and they began the project by jackhammering channels along the perimeter of the basement. Then, they partly filled the channels with drainage stone, the WaterGuard drain system, and more clean stone. They also connected a feed line from the drains to the new TripleSafe sump pump that was installed for the water to safely travel from. Next, the crew fastened CleanSpace vapor barrier to the bottom half of the walls to direct water leaking from the walls to the drains below and to brighten up the room. To finish the project, the crew poured and smoothed a layer of concrete over the drains and around the pump for a clean and pleasing look to the space that the homeowner was very happy with.

A homeowner in Buffalo, MN, was doing their laundry in their basement when they stepped in a shallow puddle. Unsure where the water was coming from, the homeowner wanted a professional to come out to investigate. The homeowner asked around their neighborhood and local Facebook groups for any basement waterproofing recommendations. Many people recommended had the same answer, American Waterworks. This prompted the homeowner to investigate our services on our website. The homeowner was impressed enough to call our Appointment Center and sign up for their FREE estimate. After the estimate was made, we sent one of our Design Specialists, Dylan, to the home. Once he arrived, Dylan began inspecting the entire basement. Dylan determined that the corner where the water was discovered needed to be waterproofed. Dylan recommended installing the WaterGuard, the innovative below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage stone of the foundation footing. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner agreed to the plan and production commenced. Our Foreman, Arturo, and his crew arrived at the home to begin the project. First, the crew focused on removing half of the basement wall, so they could put the WaterGuard in place. After the section of the wall was removed, the crew began digging channels around the perimeter of the wall. Once the channels are dug, the crew could drill small holes in the footing of the foundation. Next, the crew places the WaterGuard in the channel. After the WaterGuard is put in place, they could place rocks and dirt over top and smooth the floor out with concrete. The crew made sure the floors were even and all the products were installed properly. The homeowner was thankful for the excellent work completed by the crew.

A homeowner from Buffalo, MN noticed that the concrete slabs around his home and in his garage had cracks and the gaps between them were unpleasing and had major dirt build-up. They got in contact with American Waterworks and scheduled their FREE estimate with our Design Specialist. Our Design Specialist attended their property to perform a thorough inspection to determine the perfect solution that would help repair the concrete. Our Design Specialist proposed to the homeowner that the best solution is to invest in our NexusPro Solution. The NexusPro solution is a special sealant made to prevent moisture from seeping through the cracks and joints into the soil beneath the slab and provide the concrete with a neat and finished appearance. The sealant is also made to withstand harsh weather conditions and the rays of the sun which prevent the sealant from shrinking or drying out. The homeowner was confident in the solution and got a date scheduled for installation. 

Our Foreman, Troy Johnson, started by double checking if the concrete slabs were leveled and prepared for the solution to be applied. Once getting the confirmation, The Foreman and his crew did a deep clean of the concrete slabs. Then they applied the NexusPro Solution over the cracks and joints of the concrete slab. Once the project was finished, our Foreman gave a walkthrough to the homeowner to ensure that the owner was happy and or take care of any concerns that have arisen during the process.

Paul K. of Buffalo, MN, had drainage issues regarding his sump pump system. This caused paul's basement to be wet and damped. This was a concern to Paul due to the furniture and appliances located in his basement. Paul then contacted the Appointment Center here at American Waterworks to claim his FREE estimate which entitles him to a free house inspection of the situation involving Paul's concerns. Once the appointment was set, our Design Specialist, then attended his property and began a thorough house inspection to give a proper diagnosis of the issue and provide Paul with the proper solution to solve the issue and prevent other issues from arising. Our Design Specialist then proposed to Paul our Waterguard Drainage System along with our SuperSump Sump Pump System. Our Waterguard Drainage System allows water to flow properly and drain excess water efficiently. The WaterGuard is designed to prevent any soil or sediment from entering the drainage system and allows water to be collected from the walls. The WaterGuard system then directs the water to our SuperSump Sump Pump System which allows the water to be drained away from the basement through the drainage system. Paul agreed and scheduled the date of installation.

Our Foreman, Arturo Mares, and his production team then began the installation process by breaking out the concrete around the perimeter of the basement.
