American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Ken S. in Thorton, IA contacted American Waterworks after seeing one of our ads in the local newspaper. His home already had two sump pumps, but water was still seeping into the basement, and he was looking for more options. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Ryan Powell, to meet with Ken and evaluate the situation. Ryan recommended our TripleSafe sump pump and Ken approved. 

Our Foreman, Matt Zeller, and his production crew were able to swap out the sump pumps and also installed our SaniDry XP dehumidifier to take care of any humidity in the basement. For normal functioning, the TripleSafe has a Zoeller ⅓ horsepower sump pump set at the lowest level. For heavy volumes of water or in case of primary pump failure, a second, Zoeller ½ hp pump will take over. In case of a power outage, our UltraSump battery backup sump pump, set at the highest level, will pump 11,500 gallons or more on a fully charged battery. Ken was impressed with the quick installation and is confident in his new TripleSafe sump pump! 

A homeowner in Thornton, IA, was experiencing some concrete issues as her walkway and garage floor had begun sinking. Knowing the issue would only continue to worsen, the homeowner began looking for concrete lifting services in the area and found us. After browsing our website and looking through our products, the homeowner decided to contact us to schedule her FREE estimate. 

In about a week, our Design Specialist, Tony B., arrived at the home to conduct a thorough inspection, answer any questions, and provide the best solution for the homeowner. During the inspection, Tony took note of the trip hazard that had formed as well as the issues the homeowner wanted addressed. Tony recommended PolyLevel, our elite foam expanding formula that accurately lifts settled slabs within seconds, to lift the concrete. After reviewing the proposal, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.

In a couple of months, our Foreman, Troy J., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. PolyLevel is installed by first drilling small holes into the slabs. PolyLevel is then injected beneath the slab, filling in the voids and causing it to lift. Once the slab has been lifted to the desired height, the crew seals the holes with cement.

Now, our customer has a smooth and level walkway and garage floor! Have you noticed sunken concrete on your property? Click HERE to schedule your FREE estimate today!

Jessie L. in Litchfield, MN had a couple of damaged foundation walls in her basement that were bowing inward. She contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate, so we sent one of our Design Specialists, Jeremy Radtke, to her home to inspect her situation and design a solution. Jeremy assured her that we would be able to stabilize her walls by installing wall anchors. She was pleased to hear this, so she scheduled the installation.

Our production team installed 14 wall anchors through the damaged walls in the basement. We drilled small holes through the walls and in to the soil. Then, we dug corresponding holes in the yard and inserted long metal rods. Lastly, we secured the rods by installing anchors on each end. Jessie's walls are now permanently stabilized, and she is glad she chose to invest in the protection of her most important asset.

Mike W. of Litchfield, MN had two slabs in his driveway that sunk and cracked, and he wanted to get it lifted and repaired before it got any worse. He heard about American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist. Our Design Specialist went to his home, inspected his concrete, and determined a plan that worked for him and his needs. After a thorough inspection, Mike was confident in our PolyLevel and NexusPro, so he signed the contract and got a date scheduled for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Troy Johnson, and his crew member injected 199 pounds of our PolyLevel underneath the slab and applied 113 feet over the cracks. Our PolyLevel is designed to fill the voids caused by soil erosion and lift and stabilize the concrete surface. Our NexusPro is made to prevent moisture from seeping underneath the cracks and it gives the concrete a nice clean finish. To complete the project, Troy gave Mike a walkthrough of the project and ensured all of his questions were answered.

Randy G. in Ventura, IA had water leaking into his basement. He was concerned about the damage that it was causing to his home and was worried that the air quality was being compromised, so he contacted American Waterworks for a free estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists to his home to evaluate the situation and propose a unique solution to fit his needs. Randy approved of the plan and moved forward with an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Hugo, and his production crew got to work and installed 178 feet of our WaterGuard drainage system around the perimeter of the basement and our recommended TripleSafe sump pump in the corner. Our TripleSafe is backed by three layers of protection and is our most reliable sump pump. The WaterGuard properly drains water to the sump pump and from there, the water is pumped through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Randy is glad he made the investment to protect his basement for the long-term.
