American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Buffalo, MN, was doing their laundry when they discovered standing water around their sump pump. Alarmed by this discovery, the homeowner immediately wanted to tackle the situation before it worsened. Knowing we have done great work in the past, the homeowner contacted our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was finalized, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of one of our Design Specialists, Dylan. After Dylan arrived, he began his walkthrough of the basement. Following his detailed walkthrough, Dylan determined that the corner of the home required to be waterproofed. Dylan suggested that WaterGuard be installed in that corner of the home. After deliberating, the homeowners decided that this was their best option. As soon as they were given the okay, our Foreman, Arturo, and his crew traveled to begin the project. First, the crew had to half-demo the eastern corner wall. After the wall was half demolished, the crew was able to install the WaterGuard along the footing. After the crew installed the WaterGuard, they completed the installation and put the basement back in place. The homeowners were relieved to know their basement flood risk was diminished. American Waterworks is happy to provide another homeowner peace of mind. 

A homeowner in Buffalo, MN, found their sidewalk was quite uneven. Wanting to prevent the issue from worsening, the homeowner began looking into "how to fix a sinking driveway". After doing some research, the homeowner knew they needed a professional. The homeowner asked a neighbor if they had similar work done and who they worked with. Coincidentally the neighbor had a very similar issue and they recommended working with us, American Waterworks. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of Gary, one of our Design Specialists. Gary arrived, greeted the homeowner, and started investigating the concrete. Following his detailed investigation, Gary found that the driveway was sinking into the ground. To stop the sidewalk from sinking further, Gary recommended lifting the driveway back to level ground. The homeowner agreed with Gary's suggestions and production preparations began. After the office approved the plans, they were sent to Dylon and his crew. Dylon arrived at the home and started lifting the driveway with PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam injection solution. The PolyLevel will immediately raise the sinking concrete slab. After the PolyLevel installation was complete, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was thankful for the quick and efficient work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to assist another customer lift and leveling their driveway. 

A homeowner was worried about his basement after a heavy rainfall, so he went downstairs to see if any damage was done. Sure enough, he found some small puddles of water on the floor and knew that his pump was most likely not working properly. He went online in search of a solution and came across the American Waterworks website. Our FREE estimates were intriguing to him because he liked the idea of speaking with a professional before agreeing to any installations. One of our Design Specialists, Dave Seawell, went to the home and informed the homeowner of our quality waterproofing products. He developed a detailed plan for his recommendations and once they were approved, the project was ready to be completed. Our Foreman, Lane Schlobohm, and his crew went to the site and installed the WaterGuard basement drain system, TripleSafe sump pump, and CleanSpace wall vapor barrier. The homeowner was very impressed with the work done by our crew and happy with the final results.

A homeowner in Buffalo, MN, recently learned that radon is a highly toxic gas that can be found in households. He learned that radon is a by-product of uranium, a naturally occurring radioactive element that can be found in soil. As the soil decays, it releases radon. Concerned that his family is unknowingly breathing in the toxic fumes, he decided to purchase a radon testing kit. After several days, the test results were above 4pCi/L and the homeowner began searching for radon mitigation services in the area. He found our website and decided to contact us to schedule his FREE estimate. 

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Tony B., arrived at the home to answer any questions the homeowner had and to create a design where our radon mitigation system would be installed. After the homeowner reviewed Tony's proposal, he decided to move forward with the project. 

In two months, our Foreman, Dakota M., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They began by installing a PVC pipe at the footing of the home. This would then connect to the radon mitigation system that is installed outside of the home. This is done this way so that our system can suction out the radon-rich air before it can get into the home and spew it outdoors. Once the crew was done, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Now, our customer and his family can breathe fresh clean air! When was the last time you tested the radon levels of your home? Schedule your FREE estimate today by clicking HERE!

A Dalbo, MN, homeowner was walking up his walkway one morning when he took a tumble over his front stoop. This was odd to the homeowner, as the slab was supposed to be flush with the walkway. Upon a deeper look, he noticed that his concrete walkway appeared to be sinking! It was pulling away from the front stoop, resulting in his trip. He hopped on the internet and searched for 'concrete leveling near me'. After finding our website, he signed up for his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, Gary S, one of our Design Specialists, headed out to the home. 

Gary completed his inspection, and when he finished, he informed the homeowner that we could address the issue using our PolyLevel injection. Gary explained that PolyLevel is a dense polyurethane foam that expands when it's injected beneath sinking concrete. It fills voids left by soil erosion and, in the process, lifts concrete back to its desired location. Gary went on to say that he wanted to protect the lift with our NexusPro. This silicone-based sealant gets applied directly to the cracks and joints in the concrete and works to stand up against harsh weather conditions. The homeowner agreed with the proposed work and scheduled the job for some time later. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Sam K, led his team through a swift and effortless lift, level, and seal. Now, our customer can step in peace, knowing his uneven concrete has been tackled.
