A homeowner in Trimont, MN had cracked foundation walls in their basement so they called American Waterworks to set up a Free Estimate after browsing our website. We sent out our Design Specialist, Jeremy Girgen, to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. After a clear and comfortable inspection, the homeowner went ahead with the project.
Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his production crew began the installation by digging holes outside of the home and putting a metal rod in each hole and installed our Wall Anchor System. Wall anchors extend out to the soil past the house, anchor themselves there, and strengthen the foundation wall, while also preventing any inward movement. To complete the installation, Juan and his production team filled the holes, replaced all the soil, and made sure the homeowner was happy!
A homeowner in Trimont, MN, felt it was time to have their basement inspected due to the concerning cracks growing along their walls. Since the homeowner has done work with us in the past, they felt comfortable calling our Appointment Center and signing up for their FREE estimate. After the FREE estimate was set, we sent one of our Service Technicians, Edgar, to investigate the status of the wall. When Edgar arrived, he met with the homeowner and then took a look at the wall. Edgar determined that the wall was showing early signs of wall failure. To stop the failure from continuing, Edgar recommended they install GeoLocks to permanently stabilize. Knowing this was the best option, Edgar agreed and the solution was directed to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Juan, and his crew traveled to begin the stabilization process. Upon arrival, they made sure the basement was cleared and ready for production. Then, the crew began installing five GeoLocks along the south wall. The homeowner requested that the tightening kit also be included in the job, so they could gradually straighten the wall over time. When the crew finished the GeoLock installation, they cleaned up the site and left the home. The homeowners were pleased with the excellent work completed by the crew.

A homeowner in Petersburg, ND, noticed their crawl space was in serious trouble. Knowing they needed a professional solution, the homeowner looked into crawl space repair options near Petersburg, ND. One of the first companies to catch their eye was us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided to take a closer look at our services. Impressed with our reviews, the homeowner knew we were the best company for their project. Since they were already on the website, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Dylan, to the home to check out the crawl space. Dylan promptly arrived at the home and thoroughly investigated the basement and crawl space. During his inspection, Dylan confirmed the crawl space needed to be fully encapsulated. Dylan came up with and proposed a solution to the homeowner. After hearing Dylan's proposal, the homeowner decided to go ahead with the recommended plan of action. Next, Dylan passed the plans along to our Logistics team to build and schedule the project. As soon as the project details were ironed out, it was assigned to our Foreman, Kingsley, and his crew. Kingsley and his crew traveled to Petersburg and started the crawl space encapsulation project. First, Kingsley and his crew cleared out the crawl space to ensure it was ready for installation. Next, the crew laid Drainage Matting on the basement floors. Once the Drainage Matting was laid, the crew shifted their focus to installing CleanSpace on the crawl space floors and walls. Finally, the crew installed Foamax on the crawl space walls to ensure it stayed insulated. Once all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew. If you notice your basement is suffering sign up for your FREE estimate today!
Steve and Marge from Portland, ND had begun to notice that their old sump pump just wasn't keeping up the way it used to, resulting in excess water finding its way into their space. After doing some research about waterproofing companies in the area, they found us. When they called our office, we set them up with our FREE estimate, and a few weeks later our Design Specialist, Richie, headed out to the property to complete his thorough inspection and make recommendations as to how we could help. Once he finished his walkthrough, Richie explained to Steve and Marge that their best bet would be our WaterGuard french drainage system along with our TripleSafe and UltraSump backup. Richie explained that the WaterGuard is installed below the concrete floor, atop the foundation footing, but out of the "mud zone" where normal drains can clog. He went on to say that it works to trap any water entering through cracks or holes in the foundation and helps it travel to an appropriate disposal site, the TripleSafe, an effective and economical sump solution. Richie explained that the UltraSump battery backup can help any of our sump systems pump out 11,500 gallons or more in a single charge, and has the ability to alert you of power failure, as it sounds an alarm when it runs and silences when the pump cycles off, making it the perfect addition to a home with heavy water intrusion.
Steve and Marge agreed with Richie's recommendations and work began shortly after. Our Foreman, Zach, and his crew worked diligently to install 122 ft of our WaterGuard, 1 TripleSafe sump pump, and 1 Ultra Battery backup in the basement. Once the project was complete, Steve and Marge were happy to know that they no longer had to worry about water intrusion wrecking their basement!
A homeowner in Portland, ND, worried their front walkway was going to become a tripping hazard. Hoping to avoid concrete replacement, the homeowner began looking into concrete lifting and leveling experts. The homeowner did research into "concrete leveling near Portland, ND," and one of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks. Impressed with our previous projects, the homeowner knew that we were the ideal company for their project. The homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate details were finalized, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, James. A few days later, James promptly arrived at the home and began the installation. While taking a closer look, James noted that several areas of the concrete were suffering from settlement. To prevent the settlement from continuing, James recommended lifting and leveling the walkway back to its original position. Knowing this was the best plan of action, the homeowner agreed and worked with James to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Charlie, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. Charlie and his crew began by inserting PolyLevel below the sinking slab. Once the PolyLevel was secured, the crew shifted to taking out the joints and replacing them with NexusPro, a silicone-based solution. After all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was grateful for the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to provide its homeowners peace of mind, knowing their concrete is properly repaired.
