Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Marie of Anoka, MN, was beginning to notice that she was experiencing pooling water in the crawl space beneath her home. She wanted to know what could be done to fix the issue, so she gave us a call. When she got in contact with us, she used her FREE estimate with us to have our Design Specialist, Shane, out to her property to do a thorough inspection. When Shane completed, he was able to make a recommendation as to how American Waterworks could best help Marie. He suggested that we wrap the entire space in our CleanSpace to catch any water entering the space through cracks or porous holes in the walls of the space. Next, he wanted to use our drainage matting to ensure that any water would find its way to the appropriate disposal site. The raised dimples on this matting give the water flooding into the crawl space a natural channel underneath the crawl space liner that directs the water to a perimeter drain or sump pump. Marie agreed with Shane's recommendations and work began shortly after. Our Foreman, Chris, was able to make quick work of their installations. They ended up wrapping the basement in 460 sqft of CleanSpace and used another 260 sqft of our drainage matting on the floor of the crawl space. The crew finished the job by using our Spray Foam, a sprayable foam used to insulate the remaining cracks between the floor and ceiling joists. 

When the job was completed, Marie was satisfied with the work and happy to know that her waterproofing issues were in the past! 

A homeowner in New Hampton, IA, grew concerned their crawl space was in serious trouble. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner began looking into crawl space repair near New Hampton, IA. The homeowner looked through several companies and their eye was caught by our five-star ratings and reviews. Impressed with our work, the homeowner knew we were the best company for the job. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. As soon as the estimate was set, we sent one of our Design Specialists, Ryan, to the home to take a closer look. Ryan arrived at the home and began his thorough investigation of the crawl space. During his investigation, Ryan confirmed the crawl space needed to be cleared and encapsulated. Ryan presented his findings and proposal to the homeowner. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner decided to go ahead with Ryan's proposal. Next, Ryan sent the proposal to our Logistics team to have the plans approved. Our Logistics team built and scheduled the project, and then it was assigned to our Foreman, Kiko, and his crew. As soon as Kiko and his crew arrived, they began by clearing out the crawl space. Once the crawl space was cleared, the crew shifted their focus to installing Drainage Matting on the crawl space floor. Following the Drainage Matting, the crew shifted their focus to installing TerraBlock on the crawl space floor. Next, the crew attached CleanSpace to the crawl space walls and floors. Finally, the crew finished up by installing Foamax on the outside crawl space walls. After Kiko and his crew completed the installation, they cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is delighted to assist its homeowners in repairing their crawl space. 

A homeowner in Cannon Falls, MN requested that American Waterworks check their crawlspace for the presence of Radon after reading up on the side effects of this toxic gas.

 After receiving the news that their test came back at 8.4 pCi/L, the Shepards decided it was best to encapsulate their crawlspace with a vapor barrier known as CleanSpace.

The CleanSpace barrier will block most of the movement of radon from the soil into the crawlspace and our radon mitigation system will reduce any of the remaining presence of the gas that is entering through cracks in the foundation, plumbing, etc.

Randy H. of Milaca, MN had a damp and wet crawl space, causing him to worry about humidity, mold, and pest attraction. He called American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Shane Nephew. Shane went to his home, inspected his crawl space, and came up with the solution of our CleanSpace Encapsulation Vapor Barrier. Randy got all of his questions answered so he moved forward with the project. 

Our Foreman, Jose Flores, and his crew installed 864 feet of our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, which is a heavy-duty moisture barrier that is used to transform the crawl space into a dry, clean, and energy-efficient part of the home. Along with protection from mold and rot, a dry crawl space will also prevent termites, cockroaches, ants, crickets, and other creatures from coming into the crawl space. Randy was happy with the repairs and was grateful to have a dry crawl space again!

Kathy F. of Inver Grove Heights wanted her crawl space encapsulated, so she requested a FREE Estimate with our company. Our Design Specialist, Dustin, went to Kathy's home, carefully inspected her crawl space, and determined a solution that worked for her and her needs. She was confident in Dustin's proposal of our CleanSpace Encapsulation System and our Foamax Wall Panels, so she signed the contract. 

Our Foreman, Jose, and his team began the project by installing our Foamax Wall Panels around the crawl space wall perimeter, which is a special foam insulation that makes the basement warmer, brightens the space, and drain wall leaks into the drainage system. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Encapsulation Vapor Barrier throughout the floor of the crawl space. The purpose of this barrier is to keep the crawl space dry, protect the structure from wood rot and mold, and seal away smelly odors. Kathy was happy with the work and was grateful for the extra storage space!
