TJU Construction was working on repairing a home in Minnetonka, MN to put on the market. While restoring the home, they realized they needed to have the basement waterproofed because water was seeping in and was causing damage to the home. They knew the home would be very hard to sell with a basement in that condition, so they contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate.

We sent one of our Design Specialists, Eric Hazelton, to the home to provide TJU Construction with a solution.

Our production team installed 126 ft. of WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement and our SuperSump sump pump in one of the corners. The WaterGuard properly guides water to the sump pump.

The waterproofing process took two days to complete, but our system has a lifetime guarantee and is transferable to anyone who purchases the home. That basement will always be protected and whoever lives there will have peace of mind that they have a top of the line waterproofing system keeping their home dry.
