Professional Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair in Saint Cloud, MN

A homeowner in St. Cloud, MN had grown concerned when he noticed that his current sump pump has been making strange noises during storms. Unsure of how to check their sump pump, the homeowner began looking into waterproofing services in St. Cloud, MN and found us. The homeowner then contacted our Appointment Center to schedule their FREE basement waterproofing estimate.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Daniel R., arrived at the home to conduct a thorough inspection of the basement. During his inspection, he tested the sump pump and looked out for any signs of water damage. He found water stains along the corner of the basement and learned that the sump pump is no longer functioning correctly. For this reason, Daniel recommended installing WaterGuard, our drainage system that collects water at the perimeter of the basement and sends it to the sump pump, SuperSump, our reliable sump pump system, and IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line that allows water to escape in sub-zero temperatures. After looking over Daniel’s proposal, the homeowner was confident that the products would fix his basement issues and decided to move forward with the project.

In a couple of months, our Foreman, Francisco E., and his crew arrived for the installation. The crew began by drilling along the edges of the floor where WaterGuard would be placed, and drilling a sump pit. After this, clean gravel is poured at the edges and WaterGuard is placed on top. The crew installed 12 ft of WaterGuard. Next, they installed the SuperSump and IceGuard and ensured that everything was hooked up properly. After the successful installation, the crew restored the flooring, cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Now, our customer can have peace of mind knowing their basement will remain dry for many years! Have you noticed signs of water damage in your basement? Click HERE and schedule your FREE estimate with one of our trained professionals!

This was no small issue, as water seepage can compromise the integrity of a home and promote unhealthy living conditions. Our team at American Waterworks quickly scheduled a FREE home inspection following the homeowner's inquiry, positioning us to understand the full scope of the challenge at hand.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Daniel R., conducted a thorough assessment. The problem was clear: an inadequate existing drainage system was unable to handle water infiltration. Daniel's proposed solution was to install a combination of WaterGuard, SuperSump+, and IceGuard products—a comprehensive approach tailored to the homeowner’s needs. Implementing the fix began with our production team, led by Francisco E., carefully installing 12ft of the WaterGuard system, a discreet and effective drainage solution situated below the basement floor. This system efficiently channels water to the SuperSump, a reliable sump pump optimized for high-volume water evacuation. Backup readiness was ensured by integrating the IceGuard system, which permits water discharge even if the pipe freezes—a vital consideration for the cold St. Cloud winters.

Debbie from Saint Cloud, MN had several bowing walls in her basement, so she called the office staff at American Waterworks to set up a Free Estimate. We sent out a Design Specialist to her house to figure out what solutions would be best to fix her current situation. After an in-depth inspection, our Design Specialist determined that wall anchors and power braces would repair and straighten her walls, as well as prevent any further movement.

Our production team started installing the wall anchors by digging out small holes from the side of the home parallel to where the cracked walls were. They installed long metal rods through the walls and into the soil that surrounded the house, which enabled our crew to tighten the rod at both ends with anchor plates. The walls started to straighten as the anchors tightened. After the installation of 12 anchor plates, we installed four power braces to reinforce the foundation walls from the inside. After everything was completed, Debbie was happy she went with American Waterworks to enhance the quality of her home.
