A New Ulm, MN, homeowner was enjoying a quiet morning at home when he walked across his main level floor and noticed an area that appeared to be sagging lower than the rest. She was uneasy about what this could mean for the home's structural integrity, and decided to look into Minnesota foundation contractors. When she found our website, she signed up for her FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Dylan W, headed out to the home.
When Dylan arrived at the home, he was directed down to the crawl space, where he would spend much of his inspection. When Dylan finished, he circled back with the homeowners to deliver his findings. Dylan explained that the crawl space could benefit from extra support, which he recommended to be our SmartJack system. The SmartJack crawl space stabilizer is an adjustable supplemental support system used for sagging crawl spaces. It's unique in that it's made with strong, corrosion-resistant, galvanized steel. Because this system will not develop results, it will remain adjustable for years should further adjustments be needed down the road. The homeowner loved the idea of having a system that could be adjusted down the road and decided to schedule the project.
On the day of the installation, our team, led by their Foreman, Francisco E, was able to effortlessly install 2 of our SmartJacks. Now, our customers has a renewed sense of peace in her largest investment!
Nick and Carissa S. of Kandiyohi, MN had water leaking into their basement, causing them to worry about damage to property. They got in contact with American Waterworks and got a FREE estimate scheduled with our Design Specialist, Chad Johnson. Chad went to Nick and Carissa's house, carefully inspected their basement, and determined a solution that would work for them, their needs, and their budget. Nick and Carissa were confident in Chad's plan, so they signed his contract and got a date scheduled for the installation.
Our Foreman, Dylon VanCanneyt, and his production team started the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain, which is designed to collect water seepage from basement walls, prevent water and mud clogs, and serves as an underground drain. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier, which prevents mold and humidity, gives the basement a neat, clean appearance, and it covers any big holes or divots in the walls. To complete the installation, our crew filled the open-floor gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over them, ensuring the basement was neater and cleaner than when they found it. Nick and Carissa could not believe the beautiful transformation!

A homeowner in Kandiyohi, MN, did not like the appearance of the uneven concrete in front of their home. Not wanting to replace the entire slab, the homeowner looked for alternative methods. After hearing positive reviews about our company through social media, the homeowner decided to check out our website. The homeowner saw that we offer the services that they are looking for, so they called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the details were finalized, the homeowner awaited the arrival of Lance, one of our Design Specialists. When Lance arrived, he introduced himself to the homeowner and began evaluating the status of the concrete. Lance determined the cause of the unevenness was soil settlement. To stop the settlement, Lance recommended that the concrete be lifted and leveled. The homeowner knew this would be their best option, so they went along with Lance's recommendation. The plans were then sent to our Foreman, Patrick, and his crew. When they arrived at the property, the crew began by making sure the concrete was ready for the PolyLevel. The crew then inserted the PolyLevel underneath the sidewalk and front slabs of the garage. Once the PolyLevel was installed, the crew was able to clean up their materials and leave the home. The homeowner was impressed with the wonderful work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to assist customers with their concrete concerns.
Steven T. of Garfield, MN had uneven floors throughout his crawl space, causing him to worry about the stability and safety of his home. He found American Waterworks after doing some research and liked what he saw, so he scheduled a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist went to Steven's home, carefully inspected the uneven floors, and determined the proposal of our Crawl Space Support SmartJack Posts. Steven was confident in the product and its features, so he went ahead with the project.
Our Foreman and his production team installed seven of our SmartJacks, which are made to stabilize and straighten sloping or springy floors. They can support loads of more than 60,000 pounds and they are galvanized (resistance to corrosion). Steven was happy with the work that was completed and had a great experience from start to finish.

A customer from Garfield, MN, got in contact with us because she found water pooling in a corner of her basement. She had plans to renovate the space into a living space and wanted to know her options moving forward. Our Design Specialist made a few suggestions. First, he stated the property needed a Sump Pump to adequately drain water our CleanSpace and WaterGuard systems are able to catch. All of our sump systems have several beneficial features for the customer, beginning with a WaterWatch alarm that notifies the homeowners of the overflowing of the sump basket and airtight sump lids that keep odor and humidity out while simultaneously protecting the interior of the pump. Our Foreman, Cameron, installed the new system and now the homeowner is able to transform her space into the basement of her dreams!
