American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Homeowners in Park Rapids, MN had water leaking into their unfinished basement. They were unable to go about their renovations with this problem. They got in contact with our office line and scheduled a FREE Estimate with one of our Design Specialists. He went to their home, inspected their basement, and drew out a solution. The homeowners were confident in our proposal of our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain and CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier, so they signed our contract. 

Our Foreman, Corey, and his production team broke out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain. Our WaterGuard is the most popular interior drainage system because of its easily accessible service ports, its ability to collect water seepage from basement walls, and its prevention from water clogs. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier. Our CleanSpace is designed to prevent mold and humidity from invading the basement, saves money on energy costs, and gives the basement a warm and bright appearance. To complete the installation, Corey and his crew filled the floor gaps with river rock and applied a new layer of concrete. The homeowners were satisfied and could not believe the transformation!

Jeff B. of Park Rapids, MN wanted his crawl space encapsulated, so he did some research online and came across our website. After seeing some of our projects online, he called our office staff and scheduled a FREE estimate with our team. Our Design Specialist, Ian, went to Jeff's home to inspect his crawl space and draw up a solution for our CleanSpace Encapsulation and Foamax Wall Panels. Jeff was appreciative of Ian's time and was confident in our system, so he got a date scheduled for installation. 

Our Foreman, Ryan, and his production team began the process by installing our Foamax Wall Panels around the crawl space wall perimeter. Our Foamax provides comfort and energy bill savings while giving the walls a clean and bright appearance. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Encapsulation Moisture Barrier throughout the floor of the crawl space. This barrier prevents wood rot, mold, and mildew while keeping the crawl space dry and protecting the house structure. Along with that, it seals away smelly odors, increases the value of the home, and provides extra storage space. Jeff was happy with the work and could not believe the transformation!

Jeff S. wanted an Egress Window and RockWell Window Well installed at his cabin in Park Rapids, MN. He saw an American Waterworks advertisement on HomeAdvisor, so he requested a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Kole. Kole went to Jeff's house, inspected his window space, and provided a quote for the project. Jeff was confident in the proposal, so he went ahead with the process.

Our Co-Foreman, Zach, and his crew member, Dillan, installed broke out the pre-existing window and replaced it with our Egress Window to provide more light, fresh air, and a safe exit out of the cabin. Next, our team installed our RockWell Egress Window Well, which allows for the safe exit, it looks like stone landscaping, and it's a one-piece construction that doesn't rot or deteriorate. Jeff was happy with the work and is looking forward to the weekend visits to his cabin!

A homeowner in Park Rapids, MN, was cleaning their basement when they noticed their walls were beginning to bend inwards. Concerned by this discovery, the homeowner wanted to solve the issue before it progressed. The homeowner was doing research into the many companies in the area and noticed our five-star reviews. Impressed by our customer's kind words, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate on our website. Once the estimate details were finalized, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of one of our Design Specialists. As soon as the Design Specialist arrived, he began his analysis of the home's foundation. After completing the detailed inspection, the Design Specialist determined that the foundation walls were caving into the home due to hydrostatic pressure. After finding the cause, the Design Specialist recommended permanently stabilizing the foundation walls. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner agreed with the Design Specialists recommendations, and the plans were sent to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Franklin, and his crew arrived at the home to begin the foundation repair. First, the crew started by excavating the failing wall in the basement. Next, the crew installed 18 PowerBraces along the entire west wall, and sections of the west and east wall. Once all the PowerBraces were put into place, the crew installed the SentrySeal Waterproofing Membrane around the exterior foundation. The crew cleaned up their job site and left the home. The homeowners were relieved to know their basement was no longer at risk of wall failure. American Waterworks is happy to provide another homeowner peace of mind. 

Deb and her family built an addition onto their cabin in Osage, MN. However, the older part of the cabin where the bedrooms are had sagging floors and she knew they needed additional support in to be safe. Deb decided to call American Waterworks to claim her FREE estimate. This entitled Deb to a free home inspection. Once the appointment was set, our Design Specialist, Kole, headed to the property and began a thorough home inspection to properly diagnose the space and propose a proper solution. Kole found by examining the crawlspace underneath the floors that they were improperly supported, so he proposed that Deb and her family invest in our SmartJack solution. Deb agreed and set an appointment to get started.

Our Foreman and his crew headed out to the property and got to work. By using 3 SmartJacks, 8 Joist Assist Brackets, and a 16ft Supplemental Beam in the crawlspace below, the team was able to stabilize the floors permanently. Our SmartJack system is made to provide support for oversized or sagging beams, restoring stability and straightness. This system is also unique in that it's made with strong, corrosion-resistant, galvanized steel, so rusting isn't a worry. This means the SmartJack system can be tightened for years to come.

Deb and her family were so happy with the work and felt a sense of peace about the safety and durability of their cabin home!
