American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Saint Anthony, MN, discovered a separation between his concrete stairs and sidewalk. Knowing it could turn into a serious issue, the homeowner wanted to find the best concrete repair company to complete the job. After doing research, the homeowner determined that American Waterworks was the best fit. The homeowner went to our website and signed up for their FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist, Gary, drove to the home to take a look at the issue. After he completed his inspection, Gary recommended that a majority of the concrete in front of the home be lifted and leveled. The homeowners agreed and the repair preparations began. Our Foreman, Troy, and his crew started by using the PolyLevel to lift the driveway apron, driveway slabs, and patio. Once the PolyLevel was installed, the crew went in with NexusPro to fill the joints throughout the driveways. The crew completed the repair and left the driveway as good as new. The homeowners were thankful that their driveway was properly repaired. American Waterworks is happy to provide peace of mind to another customer. 

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN was not pleased with how his driveway had been looking. Not only were there large cracks in multiple areas of the concrete, but an unevenness between his garage and driveway. Rather than leave it to sit and continue to worsen, he decided to find a business that could help fix the problem. He noticed that American Waterworks, a name he was familiar with, offered a FREE no obligation estimate service for homeowners wanting to walk through a plan before beginning the repairs. The homeowner scheduled his appointment and was greeted weeks later by one of our expert Design Specialists, Mike Dexter. Mike suggested to him that to achieve the desired results, PolyLevel, a high-density polyurethane foam to lift the surface, and NexusPro, a silicone-based sealant to fill in extra spaces and cracks, would be the best course of action. The homeowner also expressed that he wanted to add extra protection to extend the lifespan of the driveway after the repairs were done. Mike explained that SealantPro would help permanently protect it from water, dirt, and other contaminants in a single coat. The homeowner agreed to the plans and our Foreman, Ryan Trogstad, along with his crew, arrived at the home to carry out the installations. Pleased with the result of his now sleek looking driveway, the homeowner was happy he chose American Waterworks to take on this project.

A homeowner from Saint Anthony, MN, got in touch with us after they conducted an at-home radon gas test. The homeowner was disconcerted when the levels came back high and decided to look into Minnesota radon specialists. When the homeowner found our website, he signed up for one of our FREE estimates, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Nick S, was headed out to the home. 

When Nick arrived, he first met with the homeowner. He informed them that because the levels of radon gas returned so high, he would strongly urge them to consider a radon gas mitigation system. Nick elaborated, explaining that a typical radon mitigation system consists of a large-diameter plastic pipe that connects the air beneath your foundation to the outdoors. An in-line fan sucks radon-rich air from beneath your foundation and expels this hazardous air to the exterior. Instead of entering your basement or other living space area through numerous gaps and cracks in the foundation, radon gas is extracted from beneath your foundation before it can permeate into interior space. He went on to say that when installed by an experienced professional, a radon mitigation system will lower the concentration of radon gas in the interior air to the minimal levels recommended by the EPA and other health safety agencies. With that, Nick left the homeowner to think about the recommendation while he continued his inspection, scoping out the best place for a radon mitigation system. When the inspection was completed, the homeowner decided to schedule his project with Nick. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Geno M, and his team seamlessly installed the mitigation system, successfully restoring our customer's faith in the air circulating his home!

A Minneapolis, MN, homeowner had been dealing with a leaky basement for years. Each time it rained, the homeowner fell victim to unwanted water finding its way into her space. She no longer wanted to deal with the issue and decided to find a basement waterproofing company in Minneapolis, MN. The homeowner quickly found American Waterworks and signed up for her FREE estimate. 

Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Dustin A, was headed out to the home. When Ryan finished his estimate appointment, he met with the homeowner. He began by commending the homeowner for taking action on her space. Dustin explained that waterproofing issues don't get better with time but rather with diligent homeowners who are committed to the health and value of their homes. He went on to say that he had the perfect system to deal with the water in the basement. First, Dustin recommended our CleanSpace system be installed directly to the walls of the basement. He explained that this 100% waterproof tarp-like material works to catch water entering through holes and cracks in the wall, directing it downward to a perimeter drain. Furthermore, CleanSpace has an anti-microbial protection, UltraFresh, built right in. As for the perimeter drain, Dustin recommended our WaterGuard drainage system. This unique French drain system gets installed below the basement floor atop the footing of the foundation to keep it clear of the 'mud zone' where similar systems tend to clog. Dustin elaborated, saying that this system works to give water entering through the floor a channel to flow freely to the sump pump that had been previously placed in the space. The homeowner agreed with the proposed work and worked with Dustin to find the correct date for installation. 

Several weeks later, our Foreman, Juan P, and his crew arrived at the home. Once the project had concluded, Juan and his team installed 77 sqft of both WaterGuard and CleanSpace within the basement. Now, our customer can lay her water intrusion nightmare to rest!

Mitch J. in Coon Rapids, MN had water seeping into his basement. He expressed his frustration about the problem in his basement to a friend and that friend recommended that he call American Waterworks to waterproof his basement. Mitch decided to call us for a free estimate, so we sent one of our Design Specialists, Jeremy Radtke, to his home to inspect the problem and design a solution. Jeremy worked closely with Mitch to develop a plan that was best fitting for his needs. Mitch was pleased with the proposal that Jeremy presented to him, so he scheduled a date for us to waterproof his basement.

Our production team started the installation by removing the concrete around the perimeter of Mitch’s basement, and the concrete where they needed to install the new sump pump. Then, they laid our WaterGuard drainage system around the perimeter and a feed line through the middle of the basement floor. The WaterGuard and feed line properly drain water to the sump pump, instead of the water pooling in his basement. Once the water reaches the sump pump, it is pushed through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Mitch was very pleased with the work that the crew did! He is glad he chose to invest in his home and protect his basement for the long-term.
