American Waterworks Before & After Photos

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.

The homeowner decided to look into foundation repair near Streeter, ND. During their search, the homeowner's eye was caught by our elite foundation repair product lineup.

Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner agreed with the project. After they received the stamp of approval, Kole sent the plans to our logistics team for the project to be built. The Logistics team built the project and then scheduled it with our Foreman, Roel, and his crew to begin. Roel and his crew traveled to the home and started the SmartJack installation.

Susan was looking to purchase a home in Gackle, ND. However, the house sale was contingent upon the foundation being addressed. While the project was more work than Susan anticipated for the sale, our team was able to work with her and her realtor to find a solution that worked well for her and the home. 

First, our Design Specialist, Kole, went to the home to address the situation with a complete walkthrough. Once complete, he went over the plan with the client; she agreed and set a time for our crew to get to work.

Our Foreman, and crew began the project by breaking out a big hole in the concrete floor. In the hole, our team installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System with three levels of protection to solve all water problems a the homeowner may experience. Along with the TripleSafe Sump Pump is a battery backup that helps in cases where power is lost in a home the battery will keep the pumps draining any excess water build-up. Our team covered the small, open gaps with river rock to complete the installation and applied new concrete. To direct water away from the home's foundation so that it would not leak back into the basement, the team added a standard discharge line from the South end of the basement. Furthermore, American Waterworks can help prevent wintertime freeze-up of discharge lines. We installed the patented IceGuard® system, an anti-freeze fitting that is installed outside of the home and ejects water away from the foundation if the sump pump discharge lines freeze or become clogged.

Next, our team addressed the foundational issues by strategically placing PowerBraces around the basement, inserting 11, 9' PowerBraces to stabilize the wall further. The PowerBrace system is an I-shaped beam that stabilizes and helps straighten the bow of the wall over time. The PowerBrace system is drilled into the support beams of the home and the concrete on which the home lies. The PowerBrace™ can be installed with no disruption to outside soils or landscaping. This foundation wall system installs quickly in your home, immediately and permanently halting the inward movement of your foundation walls. The team also worked to install 7 of our GeoLock anchors throughout the basement. GeoLock Wall Anchors permanently stabilize foundation walls by anchoring them to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond the foundation.
