Local Radon Mitigation & Foundation Repair Company in Jackson County, MN

Larry H. in Jackson, MN was noticing cracks on the concrete foundation of his home. He was concerned that this was a sign of a much larger problem. He contacted American Waterworks for a free estimate to find out what was going on with his foundation. American Waterworks came to his home to determine what the root of the problem was and discovered that Larry's foundation was sinking and, without proper stabilization, could lead to a full foundation replacement.

American Waterworks recommended installing piers to stabilize his existing foundation. Larry realized that the sinking foundation could lead to further damage of his home, so he decided to have the piers installed. Larry was able to see immediate results after the piers were installed and could rest easy knowing that his foundation is stable, secure and guaranteed for a lifetime. 

Wayne H. in Heron Lake, MN noticed that a few of his basement walls had started bowing inward. He knew that ignoring a damaged foundation could lead to very costly repairs or even replacement, so he contacted American Waterworks to receive a free estimate. One of our Design Specialists, Jeremy Radtke, went onsite to inspect the foundation and provide Wayne with a solution. Jeremy determined that the best solution was installing wall anchors.

Our production crew started the installation by drilling small holes through the walls, into the soil surrounding the home. Then, they dug small holes in the yard that corresponded with the holes they drilled through the walls. They inserted long metal rods and secured them on each end with anchors plates. They tightened the anchors as far as they could go, to permanently stabilize the wall. Lastly, we placed covers over the anchors, so they would look more aesthetically pleasing. The process took a couple of days to complete, but Wayne is resting easy knowing that his foundation is permanently secured!

Laurie C. had water leaking in the basement of her home in Alpha, MN. To reduce the seepage and reduce any damage, she gave American Waterworks a call to schedule a Free Estimate. One of our Design Specialists, Dylan Woitas, went out to her home to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. He proposed our WaterGuard Draining System, TripleSafe Sump Pump, IceGuard, and a LawnScape Outlet. After Laurie got all of her questions answered about the products, she went ahead and got an installation date scheduled. 

Our foreman, Matt Zeller, and his production crew started the installation by cutting out the concrete around the perimeter of the basement to make a trench. In the trench, Matt and his crew installed our WaterGuard Draining System, which is similar to an underground drain for water to settle. Then, they dug out a diagonal feed line from the WaterGuard to the TripleSafe Sump Pump System to pump the water out of the basement more efficiently. Our TripleSafe is the best sump pump we offer to our customers, and it provides three additional levels of protection for any basement. Next, our production crew installed a 40-foot long discharge line from the sump pump to the IceGuard System outside of the home. IceGuard is an extra block of protection outside of the home to prevent any and all water from invading the foundation walls. From the IceGuard, the discharge line ended at the LawnScape Outlet, which serves as an exit for invasive water. To complete the installation, Matt and his crew filled all the open gaps in the basement with rock and replaced the concrete. From start to finish, Laurie was very happy and impressed by the heavy workload, and was overjoyed by the life of her renovated basement! 

Rich and Cassie E. of Brooklyn Park, MN had water leakage in their home so they called American Waterworks to discuss our waterproofing repair systems. We sent out our Design Specialist, Jeremy Radtke, to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. Rich and Cassie were content with the proposal, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Tremaine Jackson, and his production team began the installation by breaking out the concrete perimeter and forming a trench to install 30 feet of our WaterGuard System, which prevents water clogs and serves as an underground drain. Next, our crew installed 27 feet of our CleanSpace Wall System, designed to cover dents or holes, and prevent humidity or mold exposure. Lastly, they installed our SuperSump Plus M53 Sump Pump, which keeps basements dry and clean for years on end. Tremaine and his crew covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Rich and Cassie were extremely satisfied with the completion, and are enjoying their wet-free basement!

A homeowner from Alpha, MN, was walking across their main level floor when they realized the slightest dip in the floor over the basement. Worried about what this could mean for their home, the homeowner started researching potential causes and companies who could help remedy the issue. Once they found our website, they decided to take advantage of our FREE, no-obligation estimates. Once they set up their appointment, one of our Design Specialists, Dylan, headed to the property to conduct the evaluation. Once he completed his walkthrough, he was ready to recommend how American Waterworks could help fix the issue. He explained that the sloping floor could be because the home's foundation was beginning to settle, causing the rest of the house to feel the effects. He went on to say that the basement could benefit from the use of our SmartJacks wall stabilization system. He explained that our SmartJack system provides solid support for sagging and undersized beams, restoring stability and straightness to sagging floor joists. The homeowner agreed with Dylan and the work was scheduled to be completed weeks later. 

When the project date arrived, our Foreman, Matt, and his team headed out to the home to install the system. After the work was completed, our team had installed 9 of our SmartJack's throughout the basement of the home. Now our homeowner can go back to having full faith in the structure of her home!
