Sump Pump Upgrade Saves Basement in Saint Paul, MN

A Saint Paul, MN, homeowner had been facing an issue with his sump pump for a while. Over the years, the system had started to display problems such as loud and unusual noises, cycling in times of no water intrusion, and not functioning when the basement needed it the most. He decided to find a sump pump repair company near Saint Paul, MN, and quickly found us and signed up for his FREE estimate. 

Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Ryan P, headed out to the home. He completed his thorough inspection of the basement and then met with the homeowner to go over his findings. Ryan began by saying that while the outdated sump pump was not helping the basement, he found evidence of water intrusion in other areas, indicating that the problem was spreading, meaning a sump pump might not be enough to deal with excess water. Ryan first recommended our CleanSpace, a 100% waterproof tarp-like material that gets installed directly to foundation walls to direct water downward into a perimeter drain. In this case, Ryan recommended the drain to be our WaterGuard system. WaterGuard is a below-floor French drain that acts as a channel, directing water entering it to the appropriate disposal site. When Ryan got to the sump, he recommended our SuperSump sump pump, an economical, yet effective system for removing water from a space. The homeowner was thrilled with Ryan's recommendations and scheduled the project for several weeks later.

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Francisco E, and his team installed 27ft of WaterGuard, 13ft of CleanSpace, and 1 SuperSump sump pump. Now, our customer can enjoy a dry and healthy basement!

Sidewalk Lifting in Eagan, MN

In Eagan, MN, a homeowner had noticed their sidewalk had begun settling, causing the slabs to be uneven. Concerned it would be a trip hazard for friends and family, the homeowner began looking into concrete repair in the area and found our website. Impressed by our stellar reviews, the homeowner decided to contact us and schedule their FREE estimate.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Nate B., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, Nate took a close look at the concrete slabs and determined which needed lifting and leveling. He also explained to the homeowner that one of the common causes of sunken concrete slabs is soil washout. Soil washout is the process in which water moves through the ground and washes away the supporting soils, keeping the slabs upright. Over time, this causes gaps and holes in the soil, and the slab would begin to sink. To effectively fix this issue, Nate recommended installing PolyLevel, our waterproof foam solution that expands in the soil, filling in the gaps and lifting the slabs back to their original position, and NexusPro, our silicone-based sealant. Confident in our team, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Ryan T., and his crew arrived to lift the slabs. Once the sidewalk had been lifted and leveled with PolyLevel, they applied NexusPro along the joist.

Concerned over the structure of their home, the homeowner began looking into foundation repair services in the area and found us. Impressed by our foundation repair transformations, the homeowner contacted us to schedule their FREE estimate.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Dustin A, arrived at the home to conduct a thorough inspection of the home. During the inspection, Dustin took a close look at the foundation walls, determining where the cracks were and which walls needed stabilizing. After reporting his findings to the homeowner, Dustin explained that taking early action is important as it prevents future repair costs. To stabilize the foundation, Dustin recommended installing PowerBrace, our strong steel I-beams that are installed against the wall to halt further movement. Confident in our team, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Victor S., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew was able to successfully install 3 PowerBraces!

Following a heavy rainstorm, a homeowner in Eagan, MN, noticed wet spots throughout their basement. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner knew they needed to find an expert to provide them with a solution. The homeowner looked into "flooded basement repair experts near me", and one of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks. Impressed with our stellar ratings and reviews, the homeowner knew we were the ideal company for their project. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Ryan. On the day of the appointment, Ryan promptly arrived and began the thorough inspection of the basement. During the inspection, Ryan noted that the perimeter and walls were leaking water. To prevent the issue from continuing, Ryan recommended securing several waterproofing products throughout the basement. Knowing this was the best plan of action, Ryan agreed and worked with the homeowner to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Lane, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Lane and his crew secured WaterGuard around the basement perimeter. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew shifted to attaching CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. As soon as all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their matierals and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew.

Damp Basement Addressed in Eagan, MN

An Eagan, MN, homeowner was growing more concerned about her basement bedroom. Each time it rained, the carpet of the room took on water, becoming overly saturated. The homeowner contacted a handyman, who referred him to us. He decided to set up his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, Darin S, one of our Design Specialists, was headed out to the home. 

Darin completed his thorough inspection of the basement. When he finished, he met with the homeowner to deliver his recommendations. First, Darin recommended our WaterGuard. This unique French drain gets installed below the slab of the concrete floor and atop the footing of the foundation. It works to collect water entering through holes or cracks in the floor, giving the water a channel to flow freely to a disposal site. One thing Darin had noticed was that the basement lacked a means of disposing of unwanted water. For this reason, Darin recommended our SuperSump sump pump. This pump keeps your basement dry using a float-operated and fully submersible pump. The homeowner agreed with Darin's recommendations and scheduled the job on the spot. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Diego B, led his team through the flawless installation of 34ft of WaterGuard, and 1 SuperSump sump pump. Now, our customer can rest easy knowing that her water intrusion issues have been handled!
