American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A couple in Morris, MN, gave us a call when they began to notice a crack forming in their foundation wall, causing pooling water to become a problem in their basement. When they called in, we set them up with our FREE estimate, and our Design Specialist, Shane, was out at the property in no time. When he arrived, he did a thorough inspection of the issue and made his recommendations as to how we could best fit the situation. He recommended that we use our GeoLock wall anchors to address the failing wall. He explained that these anchors are the ideal solution as they anchor the problem wall to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond the foundation, keeping the wall stabilized for a long time to come. These anchors can be tightened over time to fit the foundation's needs as it continues to settle. Next, he wanted to use our CleanSpace to address the water entering the basement. He explained to the couple that this barrier works to trap water behind the taro-like material and drain it downwards to our WaterGuard system that lies beneath the concrete floor and drains water to the appropriate place like a sump pump or external line. The couple agreed and work began shortly after. Our Production crew, led by our Foreman, Jeromy, ended up installing 17 of our GeoLock anchors and wrapped the entire basement in our CleanSpace solution. When the work was complete, the couple was happy with the work we had done and were relieved to know their foundation worries were in the past!

Jamie S. in Mountain Lake, MN had water leaking into her basement and her old sump pump was not able to keep up with the amount of water coming in. While looking for a local waterproofing company, she came across American Waterworks’ website and decided to contact us for a FREE estimate.

We sent one of our Design Specialists, Shane Nephew, to her home to inspect her basement and to develop a solution for her. Shane recommended that we install our drainage system under the concrete floor and a new sump pump to transform her basement into a permanently dry space. She agreed, and she liked Shane’s proposal, so she scheduled the installation.

Our production team installed our WaterGuard drainage system along the two walls that had water seeping in. Then, they installed the SuperSump sump pump in the corner of the basement. The drainage system properly drains water to the sump pump and from there, the water is pumped through the discharge line to the outside of the home. Our waterproofing system is backed by a lifetime guarantee, so Jamie feels confident that she chose the right waterproofing solution to protect her home for the long-term.

A homeowner in Mountain Lake, MN, had noticed their slabs sinking around the driveway and walkway of their home. Concerned it would worsen, the homeowner knew they needed expert advice and contacted us to schedule their FREE estimate. 

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Nate C., arrived at the home to conduct a thorough assessment of the concrete. During the inspection, Nate noticed a few trip hazards and created a solution for the homeowner. In that solution, Nate recommended lifting the concrete slabs with Polylevel, our foam solution, and sealing the joints with NexusPro. After reviewing the proposal and not wanting to go through the trouble of mudjacking, the homeowner happily agreed to the recommendations.

In about a month, our Foreman, Patrick B., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. After successfully lifting the concrete slabs and sealing the joints, the crew cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Now, our customer can have a smooth driveway and walkway! Noticed signs of sinking concrete around your home? Click HERE to schedule your FREE estimate today!

Sandi W. of Belview, MN had water leaking through the cracks of her basement walls, causing her to worry about the value of her home. She went to the Redwood Falls Home Show to find a contractor who could help her. She found American Waterworks and talked to our Design Specialist, Shane Nephew, about her water problems, so he set her up with a FREE Estimate. Shane went to her home to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. After an in-depth and clear examination, Sandi got all her questions answered so she followed through with the project. 

Our Foreman, Edgar Miranda, and his production crew began the project by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter and forming a trench. In the trench, our crew installed 147 feet of our WaterGuard System, which is designed to collect water seepage from basement walls and serve as an underground drain. Next, our team applied our CleanSpace Wall System, which is a plastic vapor barrier made to prevent mold and humidity build-up and protect the basement from water exposure. To complete the project, Edgar and his team covered the open WaterGuard gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Sandi's peace of mind was restored and was grateful she found us at her local home show! 

Lyle M. of Horace, ND needed the concrete walkway to his porch lifted and sealed. He found American Waterworks in the local newspaper, so he got in contact with our company and scheduled a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist, Kole, went to Lyle's home, inspected his concrete, and proposed a solution. Lyle got all of his questions answered and was comfortable with Kole's approach, so he scheduled a date for the install.

Our Foreman, Tyler, and his crew member injected our PolyLevel underneath the concrete to raise the slab to its natural position. They also applied our NexusPro over the cracks and joints to seal them and prevent moisture from seeping underneath, which eventually disturbs the soil.
