American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A resident in Fredericksburg, IA had water leaking through the floor of their basement, causing issues such as water damage and moisture build-up. They saw American Waterworks on Google and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist team. Our Design Specialist went to their house, carefully inspected their water problems, and drew out a couple of solutions that would serve their needs. The homeowner was confident in one of the proposals so he went ahead with the project and wrote out a deposit check. 

Our production Foreman and his team began the project by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer. In broken out trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System. Our WaterGuard is a special interior drainage system that collects leaking water from walls, prevents water clogs, and stays out of the "mud zone." Next, our team performed a Half Wall Demo and broke out the bottom half of the basement wall, and installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier. Our CleanSpace is made to prevent water moisture and humidity, act as an extra wall protectant, and save money on energy bills. To complete the project, our Foreman and his crew filled all the open gaps with pea gravel and poured new concrete over them.

Randy H. of Milaca, MN had a damp and wet crawl space, causing him to worry about humidity, mold, and pest attraction. He called American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Shane Nephew. Shane went to his home, inspected his crawl space, and came up with the solution of our CleanSpace Encapsulation Vapor Barrier. Randy got all of his questions answered so he moved forward with the project. 

Our Foreman, Jose Flores, and his crew installed 864 feet of our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, which is a heavy-duty moisture barrier that is used to transform the crawl space into a dry, clean, and energy-efficient part of the home. Along with protection from mold and rot, a dry crawl space will also prevent termites, cockroaches, ants, crickets, and other creatures from coming into the crawl space. Randy was happy with the repairs and was grateful to have a dry crawl space again!

A homeowner in Inver Grove Heights, MN, noticed their sump pump was not acting right. While it was running, the homeowner noticed that the sump pump was making odd noises. Having a hunch it was about time to replace their old sump pump, the homeowner began searching for a replacement. The homeowner knew they needed a professional to remove the old sump pump and install the new one. During their research, the homeowner came across the number of sump pumps and services we offer. Impressed by our several services, the homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the consultation details were finalized, we sent one of our Design Specialist, Jesse, to complete the estimate. Upon arrival, Jesse examined the current sump pump and confirmed that it did need replacing. Jesse showed the homeowners several sump pump options, and the homeowners decided upon the TripleSafe Sump pump. The plans were then sent to the assigned crew to begin the sump pump installation. Our Foreman, Gustavo, and his crew arrived at the home to begin production. First, the crew removed the old sump pump from the home. Once the old sump pump was removed, the crew then put in their new TripleSafe Sump pump. After the TripleSafe Sump pump was installed, the crew installed the IceGuard on the outside of the home. The crew successfully installed all the requested products and cleaned up the job site. The homeowners were relieved to know that they have a properly working sump pump and discharge line. American Waterworks is happy to educate and install new sump pumps in our customers' homes. 

A homeowner from Inver Grove Heights, MN, was stuck in a conundrum over her front walkway concrete. It had cracked, creating a giant trip hazard and eye-sore. The homeowner knew that if she let the problem worsen, she may have no choice but to fully replace and re-pour the concrete. Not wanting the cost, mess, and hassle of pouring a new walkway, she decided to search for alternate remedies. Upon recommendation from home improvement websites, she decided to give us a call and claim her FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Mitch S, headed out to the home to complete his inspection. 

Once Mitch concluded his walk-through, he met with the homeowner to give her his recommendation. He informed her that while installing new concrete was an option, so was lifting and leveling the slab with our PolyLevel. PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that expands when it is injected beneath concrete, filling voids left by soil erosion and slowly lifting the concrete back to its desired spot. Mitch went on to say that we finished all of our concrete lifting projects with NexusPro. A silicone-base sealant, NexusPro gets applied to all joints and cracks in the concrete to prevent any unwanted elements from penetrating the slab and protecting it from further sinking. The homeowner needed some time to think about the right choice for her family. A few weeks later, she called back and got her project with us scheduled. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Jordan S, and his team made quick work of the installation, carefully monitoring the lifting process to ensure the slab returned to its original resting spot. Once the job was done, our customer was thrilled to know she no longer needed to worry about a cracked walkway!

An Inver Grove Heights, MN, homeowner was walking up his back patio stairs one day when he took a tumble over an area of uneven concrete. He didn't want anyone else to fall victim to the uneven concrete, so he decided to search for concrete repair in Minnesota. After receiving a piece of our marketing collateral in the mail, he scheduled his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialists headed out to the home. 

Our Design Specialists completed his inspection appointment, and when he finished, he informed the homeowner that we could address the sinking stoop with the help of our PolyLevel injection. PolyLevel is a dense polyurethane foam that expands when it's injected beneath sinking concrete slabs. It slowly fills voids left by soil erosion and, in the process, lifts the sunken slab back to its desired location. The homeowner agreed and work began shortly after. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Troy J, and his team completed the lift with no issues. Now, our customer can rest easy knowing his trip hazard has been handled!
