American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A homeowner from Barnesville, MN, was dealing with a deteriorating driveway. His driveway had been sinking over the years and had begun cracking as a result. The homeowner no longer wanted to deal with the eyesore and decided to look into what options might be out there. One day, he found himself at the Red River Valley Home + Garden Show in Fargo, ND. While perusing the booths, he ended up at the American Waterworks booth and spoke to our Design Specialist, Kole, about his concrete issue. He and Kole set up a time for Kole to come out to his home to see the concrete. 

Once the day arrived, Kole got right to work completing his inspection. When he finished, he explained to the homeowner that concrete can sink for a variety of reasons but that we could help fix the issue with the help of our PolyLevel method. He explained that PolyLevel is a dense polyurethane foam that expands when it's injected beneath sinking concrete slabs. It works to fill voids left over by soil erosion and slowly lifts sunken concrete back to it's desired location. Kole went on to say that our team recommends the application of NexusPro. This silicone-based sealant gets applied to the cracks and joints of the newly lifted concrete and works to protect the vulnerable soil below by preventing water from getting between the slabs. The homeowner liked the sound of Kole's plan and scheduled the job for the Spring. 

When the snow melted and warm weather returned, our Foreman, CJ, and his team were able to complete the lift and level with no issues. Now our homeowner can look at his driveway fondly, knowing the cracks have been sealed.

A customer from Mahnomen, MN got in contact with us when he began to notice that his basement wall was beginning to bow inwards, showing signs of wall failure. He feared that if he left the issue untreated, he could run the risk of severely compromising the structural integrity of the home. When he called our Appointment Center, they set him up with our FREE estimate, which entitled him to a thorough inspection of the issue by one of our Design Specialists. Once the appointment was scheduled, our Design Specialist, Kole, headed out to the property to complete his inspection. Once concluded, he made his recommendations to the homeowner. Because of the nature of the wall, Kole recommended they use our GeoLock wall anchors to correct the situation. He informed them that our anchors will permanently stabilize the foundation wall by anchoring the wall to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond the foundation. He went on to say that, once installed, the anchors can be tightened over time to further straighten the wall. The customer agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Production crew, led by our Foreman Raul, ended up installing 4 of our wall anchors throughout the basement of the home. Once the job was complete, the homeowner was happy to know that the structure of his home was fixed! 

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.

A homeowner in Hawley, MN, was concerned with the water stains throughout their basement walls and floors. Worried about the upcoming winter, the homeowner wanted to get a head start on waterproofing their home. The homeowner asked some of their friends, and they all recommended working with us. Interested in what we would say, the homeowner signed up for our FREE estimate on our website. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Ian. After Ian arrived, he introduced himself to the homeowner and began his evaluation of the basement. Following his evaluation, Ian determined that the basement did require waterproofing. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner agreed with Ian's suggestions. After receiving the stamp of approval, the production plans were sent to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Kingsley, and his crew arrived at the home to begin. First, the crew installed the WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. Then, the crew installed the SuperSump + in the southwest corner of the basement. Next, the crew installed CleanSpace around all the basement walls. Finally, the crew installed an IceGuard on the outside discharge line. After installing all the waterproofing products in the basement, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowners were grateful to know that their basement was no longer at risk of flooding. American Waterworks is happy to assist other customers feel safe in their own homes.
