American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A Shakopee, MN, homeowner was down in the storage unit below his stairs when he noticed large spots of mold growth on the wall. Confused as to how it could have gotten there, he decided to find a mold removal specialist. Through his searching, he found American Waterworks. He realized his issue might be due to unwanted water intrusion, so he set up a FREE estimate to see if we could be of any help. 

Several weeks later, Ryan P, one of our Design Specialists, was headed out to the home. After conducting his inspection, he met with the homeowner to inform him that his suspicions were correct, the space was taking on water, making it the perfect atmosphere for mold growth. Ryan went on to say that we had several products that could help. First, Ryan recommended our WaterGuard drain, explaining that this unique French drain is installed below the floor but atop the footing of the foundation, keeping it clear of the 'mud zone', where similar drains clog. He elaborated, saying that this drain functions to collect water entering the space through holes and cracks in the floor, giving it a channel to flow freely to a disposal site, which in this case, was a pre-placed sump pump. His second recommendation was our Foamax wall panels. Foamax is a polyisocyanurate foam insulated panel with a white foil finish on the front and a foil vapor barrier on the back. This innovative product offers several benefits such as high insulation value, creating a warm basement, brightening your space, being left exposed, and drains wall leaks to the WaterGuard system to keep the space dry and healthy. The homeowner was thrilled with Ryan's recommendations and, after some thought, signed on for the project. 

Our Foreman, Lane S, arrived several weeks later. He and his team successfully installed 22 ft of WaterGuard and Foamax, restoring the customer's peace of mind in his mold-free space!

A homeowner in Shakopee, MN, recently found a social media post that discusses the dangerous health risks of radon. The homeowner learned that radon is a gas that is produced as the soil decays, which makes it completely unavoidable for homeowners. The difficult thing about radon is that we cannot smell, touch, see, hear, or taste it, making it undetectable unless using a radon testing kit. Concerned that his family was unknowingly breathing in the toxic fumes, the homeowner began searching for radon mitigation in the area and contacted us to schedule his FREE estimate. 

In about a week, our Design Specialist, Gary S., arrived at the home to provide a thorough inspection, answer any questions, and provide the best solution for the homeowner. Gary began the inspection by playing our continuous radon monitoring test, which would be placed at the lowest level of the home. Gary explained that this test would need to run for at least 48 hours so that it can accurately detect the radon levels in the home. He also stated that even if the results were not at dangerous levels, it was always good to test the radon levels every 2-5 years. Alongside this, Gary noticed that the moisture levels in the basement were high and also recommended our Aprilaire Dehumidifier. In about a week, the test results were above 4pCi/L, and the homeowner contacted Gary to have our radon mitigation system and dehumidifier installed. 

In a couple of weeks, our Foreman, Dakota M., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They installed a PVC pipe through the sump pump and connected it to the radon mitigation system, which would be installed outside of the home. In about a week, one of our Service Technicians arrived at the home to install the Aprilaire Dehumidifier.

 A homeowner in Shakopee, MN, noticed that the walkway and top of his driveway had begun settling, causing the area to become uneven and bumpy. Concerned it would be a trip hazard for his friends and family, the homeowner decided to look into concrete lifting in the area and found us. After browsing our website and becoming impressed by our concrete transformations, the homeowner contacted us to schedule his FREE estimate.

In about a week, our Design Specialist, Michel R., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, Michel explained to the homeowner that soil washout could be the likely reason why the homeowner is facing concrete settlement. Soil washout is the process in which water moves through the ground and washes away supporting soils. Over time, this creates voids in the soil and leads to the slabs sinking. To effectively fix this issue, Michel recommended PolyLevel, our waterproof foam expanding formula that accurately lifts sunken concrete; SealantPro, our concrete sealant that protects your concrete from elements and prevents discoloration and cracking; and NexusPro, our silicone-based sealant that is specifically engineered to repair cracks and seal joints. After reviewing Michel's proposal, the homeowner happily agreed to his recommendations of lifting the walkway and top driveway with PolyLevel and to seal the joints with NexusPro.

In a couple of days, our Foreman, Ryan T., and his crew arrived to spray SealantPro along the driveway and walkway. Once this product is applied, it leaves a green residue that dries clear. This is so that our crew can apply the product evenly without missing a spot. In about 3 weeks, our Foreman, Jordan S., and his crew arrived at the home to install PolyLevel and NexusPro. Once they were done, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.
