American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Todd J. of Forbes, ND was in the process of buying his new home and wanted to get the crawl space waterproofed and encapsulated. He got in contact with our office staff and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Ian Schultz. Ian went to Todd's home, carefully inspected the crawl space, and determined a solution that would suit Todd and his home repair needs. Todd was comfortable in Ian's presentation and proposal, so he signed the contract, put down a deposit, and scheduled a date for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Cameron Phrakonekham, and his production crew installed our CleanSpace Encapsulation Vapor Barrier and spray foam to seal and waterproof Todd's crawl space. Our vapor barrier is designed to prevent mold and pests, save money on energy costs, and transforms the crawl space into a dry, clean part of the home. Our spray foam is designed to keep the heat inside and prevent cool air from coming in. Todd was happy with the work that was done and was grateful we could help assist him and his needs!

Tessa, from Kenmare, ND, was having trouble with her basement walls. Specifically, she noticed a bow in the foundation walls of her home. The bowing of the wall resulted in cracks within the foundation, allowing water to seep through, causing a wet basement. Tessa contacted the Appointment Center here at American Waterworks to express her concern and claimed her FREE estimate.

Our Design Specialist, Richie, examined her home and explained that the ground beneath your home comprises many different soil layers. With time, these layers of soil can wash out, soften, and shrink, causing the foundation to settle or crack. Taking all this into consideration, Richie recommended a solution to stabilize her basement walls to fit her repair needs and restore peace of mind.

Our Foreman, Tanner, and his crew headed out to the property and got to work! They began to strategically place PowerBraces around the basement, inserting a total of 5, 9' PowerBraces to further stabilize the wall.  The PowerBrace is a patented foundation wall repair system that's designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. These steel l-beams will stabilize the wall in its current position without any further adjustment. Over time, the PowerBrace System can be tightened to make bowing or tilting walls straighter, more vertical, and improve stability. Tessa's peace of mind has been restored now that her foundation has been permanently repaired. 

A homeowner in Minot, ND had water leaking from their bowing foundation walls, causing them to worry about damage and the structural support of their home. They got in touch with our office staff and scheduled a FREE Estimate with one of our Design Specialists. He went to the homeowner's home, carefully examined the problems, and came up with a solution that fit their needs. The homeowner got all of their questions answered and was confident in the products and their warranties, so they went ahead with the project and scheduled an installation date. 

Our Foreman and his production team began the project by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System, which is made to prevent water or mud clogs, collect water seepage from basement walls, and serve as a drain that connects to the sump pump. Next, our team installed and tightened our PowerBraces against the foundation walls, which are made to straighten bowing walls over time. To complete the project, our Foreman and his crew covered the open gaps with rock and applied new concrete over it. The homeowner was happy with the repairs and was thrilled with the transformation!

A homeowner in Minot, ND had water leaking into the corners and edges of their basement, and they wanted to get it fixed up before it got any worse or caused more water moisture. They got in contact with our office staff and got a FREE Estimate scheduled with one of our Design Specialists. Our Design Specialist went to their home to inspect the problems and draw up a solution. The homeowner was appreciative and comfortable with our proposal of our SuperSump Plus M53 Sump Pump, so they scheduled a date to get it installed. 

Our Foreman and his production crew began the project by breaking out the concrete floor, forming a hole, in connection to their interior drainage system. In the hole, our team installed our SuperSump Plus M53 followed by the discharge line. The SuperSump is one of our sump pumps that is designed with two pumps and keeps basements neat and clean, especially during harsh weather conditions. To complete the project, our team filled the open gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over them. The space looked cleaner than when they found it, and the homeowner was satisfied with the completion of work!

A homeowner in Minot, ND, noticed a foul smell around their home. Unsure of the source, they began looking throughout their home. They discovered the smell was coming from the crawl space underneath their home. Worried about the long-term effects, the homeowner wanted to find a professional, lasting solution. The homeowner knew a friend who had a similar issue and they recommended working with us, American Waterworks. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. After the estimate was set, the homeowner waited for the arrival of James, one of our Design Specialists. Once James arrived, he introduced himself to the homeowners and began investigating the crawl space. James completed his detailed inspection of the crawl space and determined it needed to be encapsulated. James proposed the plan and the benefits it would have in their home. The homeowners agreed with James' suggestion and the plans were passed along to the office for approval. Once approved, the plans were sent to our Foreman, Roel, and his crew. Roel and his crew traveled to the home and began encapsulating the crawl space. First, the crew installed Drainage Matting on the crawl space floor. Next, the crew installed Foamax on the crawl space walls. Once the Foamax was secured, the crew attached CleanSpace to the crawl space walls and basement floor. The crew successfully encapsulated the entire crawl space, so they cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterowroks is happy to assist its customers achieve their home goals.
