Nick M. in Dennison, MN had learned about the dangers of radon gas and decided that he needed to get his home tested. The test results showed a high level of radon. Our Design Specialist walked him through the radon mitigation installation process and answered his questions. Nick wanted to act quickly and moved forward with an installation date.
Our radon mitigation specialists drilled a hole through the concrete basement to create a suction point for the gas. Then, a PVC pipe is inserted which goes up through the house and exits the home through the roof. A fan is installed at the top of the PVC pipe to ensure that the radon gas is being pushed away from the home. The post mitigation test results showed that his home is now a much safer environment. The installation took only one day to complete, and Nick is glad he took action to protect his and his family’s health.

A homeowner from Dennison, MN, was down in his basement one day when he realized his basement wall seemed to be tilting inward. He had been aware of several large cracks forming in the foundation and knew that this was the final indicator that he needed to seek professional help to restore the wall. He began to look for foundation repair MN and quickly found our website. He was impressed with our reviews and decided to sign up for his FREE estimate.
Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Brian R, headed out to the home. After conducting a thorough inspection of the issue, Brian informed the homeowner that he wanted to use our Channel Anchors to address the failing wall. He explained that this system is versatile and effective and can stabilize walls that are bowing, tipping, pushing in at the bottom, tilting at the top, or showing similar signs of failure. They are installed with minimal disturbance to your lawn and landscaping, often in a day or less. This warrantied solution includes a complete wall anchor system and a channel anchor that mounts on your foundation floor and wall for optimal bracing and failure protection. The homeowner agreed with the proposed work and scheduled the job for several weeks later.
On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Raul B, and his team successfully installed 5 of our Channel Anchors throughout the basement. Now, our homeowner can breathe easy knowing his foundation worries are in the past!
A homeowner in Clearbrook, MN, was cleaning their basement when they discovered water seeping near the walls. Immediately frightened by the discovery, the homeowners quickly search for a solution. After talking to a neighbor, they recommended calling us, American Waterworks. The homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate and we quickly sent our Design Specialist, Richie, to assess the condition of the basement. Richie diagnosed that a Waterguard and Feedline would need to be installed to drain the excess water. Our crew began the construction of the WaterGuard, by digging a small trench along the footing of the wall. Next, they placed the WaterGuard and ran it along the walls. Then, the crew dug another small trench across the floor to insert the Feedline. After it was all in place, the crew covered the piping. Finally, the crew demolished the wall where the mold and rot were discovered and covered the walls in CleanSpace. The crew left the homeowners with peace of mind knowing their basement is waterproofed and prepared for future storms.
Jim M. of Brainerd, MN had water leaking underneath his basement stairs, so he did some research on HomeAdvisor and came across American Waterworks. Our Design Specialist, Shane Nephew, went to his home for a FREE Estimate to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. Jim was comfortable with the proposal, so he set up an installation date.
Our Foreman, Dan Hendrix, and his production team began the project by breaking out the concrete underneath the stair landing to form a small trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System which acts as an underground drain. Next, our team applied our CleanSpace Wall System, designed to prevent mold and humidity build-up. To complete the work, Dan and his crew covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Jim was very happy with the work and is grateful we were able to help him and his home repair needs!
