American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN, noticed that the floors in her basement had been wet and was unsure of the cause. Knowing the issue would not fix itself, the homeowner began searching for basement waterproofing contractors in Minneapolis, MN, and found us. After browsing our website and becoming impressed by our reviews, the homeowner became confident in our abilities and decided to schedule his FREE basement waterproofing estimate.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Ryan P., arrived at the home to conduct a thorough inspection of the basement, answer any questions, and provide the best solution to the homeowner. During the inspection, Ryan noticed water stains along the perimeter of the basement. He explained to the homeowner that it appears that the water leaks are due to a failed footing drain. When this fails, water saturates the soil surrounding the foundation and water forces itself through cracks on the walls, between the footing and the wall, or beneath the footing. To effectively tackle this issue, Ryan recommended installing WaterGuard, our below-the-floor perimeter drainage system that collects water at the perimeter of the basement and sends it to the sump pump, SuperSump+, our elite sump pump system capable of removing 2,200 gallons of water per hour, and IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line that allows water to escape in case the discharge pipes freeze. After looking over Ryan's proposal, the homeowner happily agreed and decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Francisco E., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew installed 35ft of WaterGuard, 1 SuperSump+, and 1 IceGuard. After they were done with the installation, the crew cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Kim B. of Blaine, MN had water leaking in part of her basement so she called American Waterworks to set up a FREE Estimate. Our Design Specialist, Michael Janousek, went out to her home to detect the issue and come up with a solution. Kim was comfortable with the presentation, so she followed through with the project. 

Our Foreman, Jose Castillo, and his production team installed our WaterGuard and CleanSpace Wall System where it was leaking most. Our WaterGuard serves as an underground drain and collects water from basement walls, while our CleanSpace prevents humidity and mold from invading a specific area. Kim was happy with the turnout, and is no longer experiencing water seepage problems! 

A Blaine, MN, homeowner had been dealing with an issue for a while. His concrete patio was slowly sinking, creating a trip hazard. The homeowner didn't want any more damage to come to his backyard, so he decided to sign up for one of our FREE estimates, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Romeo, headed out to the home.

Once Romeo completed his inspection, he delivered his recommendations to the homeowner. He explained that we could address the sinking concrete using our PolyLevel method. PolyLevel is a dense polyurethane foam that expands when injected beneath sinking concrete slabs. It works to fill voids left by soil erosion and to slowly lift the concrete back to its desired location. Romeo then said that once the lift is complete, our team would go in with our NexusPro. NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant that gets applied directly to cracks and joints in the lifted concrete. It works to prevent unwanted moisture from getting below the slab to the vulnerable concrete below. The homeowner liked the sound of the plan and scheduled the job to be completed several weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Troy J, and his team headed out to the home and completed the lift and seal with no complications. Now our customers can enjoy their outdoor space without worrying about trip hazards!

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN, noticed that his back porch had begun sinking, causing the slabs to lean on one side. Worried it would be a trip hazard and that it would get worse, the homeowner decided to address the issue immediately and began looking for concrete lifting in the area. The homeowner found our website and contacted us to schedule his FREE estimate. 

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Romeo V., arrived at the home to answer any questions the homeowner had and to conduct a proper inspection of the porch. He informed the homeowner that one of the common causes for settling slabs is soil washout. When it rains or floods, water moves through the ground, underneath the slabs, and washes away supporting soils. As this continues, this leads to voids and gaps in the soil causing the slabs to sink. For this reason, Romeo recommended PolyLevel to lift the concrete and NexusPro to seal the joints. After reviewing the proposal, the homeowner happily agreed to Romeo's recommendations. 

In about a month, our Foreman, Troy J., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They lifted the settling slabs by first drilling small into them and inserting the injection ports. PolyLevel is then injected beneath the slab, expanding and filling in the empty spaces in the soil. Once the slab has been lifted, the crew then seals the holes with cement. Lastly, the crew used NexusPro to seal the joints. After they were done, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN, worried after they discovered water was leaking into their basement. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner looked into "wet basement contractors near me," and one of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks. After taking a closer look at our services, the homeowner knew that we were the ideal company for their project. Impressed with our stellar ratings and reviews, the homeowner knew that we were the ideal company for their project and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Dustin. In the following weeks, Dustin promptly arrived at the home and began the thorough inspection of the basement. During the inspection, Dustin noted that several areas were suffering from water intrusion. To prevent this issue from worsening, Dustin suggested waterproofing the entire basement. Knowing this was the best plan of action, the homeowner agreed and worked with Dustin to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Raul, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Raul and his crew began by securing WaterGuard along the basement perimeter. Next, the crew shifted to taking out the old sump pump and replacing it with the TripleSafe sump pump. Finally, the crew attached CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. After all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was grateful for the excellent work completed by the crew.
