Your Trusted Worthington, MN Concrete Leveling & Foundation Crack Repair Professionals

A homeowner in Worthington, MN, was facing multiple signs of damp basement damage, such as mold, poor indoor air quality, standing water, and weeping walls. He decided that it was time to address the issue before it did further damage and decided to look into basement waterproofing in the area. He found our website and was impressed with our 5-star reviews and decided to schedule his FREE estimate. 

Our Design Specialist, Lance S., arrived at the home on the scheduled date and conducted a thorough inspection of the basement. He explained to the homeowner that one of the common causes of a leaky basement is a failed footing drain. When this fails, the soil surrounding the home's foundation becomes saturated with water. Water then enters through the cracks on the walls and the joints between the footing and the wall. To fix this issue, Lance recommended updating the homeowner's current sump pump to our SuperSump+, which is capable of ejecting 2,200 gallons of water per hour. He also recommended our WaterGuard, our perimeter grain system that is designed not to clog unlike traditional drain systems; IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line attached outside of the home; and Aprilaire dehumidifier. The homeowner happily agreed and decided to move forward with the project.

In about two months, our Foreman, Francisco E., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They began with replacing the homeowner's out-of-date sump pump with our SuperSump+. Then, they installed 143ft of our WaterGuard by jackhammering the flooring on the edge of the basement and placing clean gravel. The WaterGuard then rests on top and is backfilled with more gravel. They also installed 1 IceGuard outside of the home. Once the sump pump is installed and attached to the drain system and discharge line, the crew restores the flooring with concrete. Lastly, the crew installed the dehumidifier. After everything was completed, the crew cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

A homeowner in Worthington, MN was concerned about the condition of the sump pump in his basement after he noticed some water damage done to the concrete floors. He knew this wasn't a good sign and wanted to catch any issues with the pump sooner rather than later, so he went online and looked up "wet basement waterproofing contractors" with hopes of finding a service in his area. The American Waterworks company name stood out to him because of our FREE estimate basement waterproofing appointments, so he signed up for his own. Our Design Specialist, Kevin Beseman, arrived at the home later to inspect the basement and speak more with the homeowner. Kevin suggested waterproofing the basement with some of our quality products, including a new SuperSump Plus pump. The homeowner trusted that the installations were the best decision for his basement, so he agreed to them. Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his crew went to the site and began the project by jackhammering channels along the perimeter of the basement. Then, they partly filled the channels with drainage stone, the WaterGuard drain system, and more clean stone. They also connected a feed line from the drains to the new SuperSump Plus pump that was installed for the water to safely travel from. Next, the crew fastened CleanSpace vapor barrier to the walls to direct water leaking from the walls to the drains below and to brighten up the room. Finally, the crew poured and smoothed a layer of concrete over the WaterGuard drains and around the pump for a clean and pleasing look to the space that the homeowner was very happy with.

In Worthington, MN a homeowner was concerned about the condition of his basement after a heavy storm that had happened. When he took a look at the space later, he found just what he was worried about. Multiple puddles of water had formed on the concrete floors and had already caused some damage to his belongings. He decided to find a solution to prevent it from happening again in the future and started his search on basement waterproofing companies. During his search he came across the American Waterworks website and was impressed with our past jobs done for other customers and our FREE estimates. He scheduled one for himself and we sent over Design Specialist Lance Schmidt to give his recommendations for the space. Lance arrived at the home and knew what needed to be done and the homeowner was happy to move forward and schedule a day and time for installations. When Foreman Victor Salvador and his crew went to the site, they began the process by jackhammering channels along the base of the walls. Next, they placed a layer of drainage stone in the channels along with the WaterGuard drain system and more clean stone. Then, they connected a feed line for the water to go through from the drain to the new TripleSafe sump system. The CleanSpace was also installed to cover the walls for any future water vapor near the walls to move down to the drain. Finally, the crew placed a layer of concrete on top of the WaterGuard system and around the TripleSafe pump to hold the products in place and provide extra protection. The crew cleaned up the space after installations had finished and left the site in great condition. The homeowner was thrilled with the results and grateful he had contacted us to waterproof his basement.

A homeowner in Worthington, MN, frantically searched for a waterproofing solution after discovering water in their basement. Unsure of who to work with, the homeowner looked for the best waterproofing company near them. After comparing multiple companies, the homeowner decided to work with us, American Waterworks. The homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate and awaited the arrival of Ryan, one of our Design Specialists. Ryan arrived at the home and began looking into the homeowner's concerns. Once he completed his inspection, Ryan recommended installing the WaterGuard, SuperSump+, and Aprilaire. The homeowner agreed with Ryan's suggestions and production commenced. After the plans were finalized, our Foreman, Jeremiah and his crew were assigned to complete the project. They drove to the home and started by installing the WaterGuard on the south and east wall. The WaterGuard system is our patented below-floor drain that rests in a drainage bed on top of the foundation footing. The WaterGuard is mainly used as a drain system due to its resistance to water clogs, easy access ports, and ability to collect leaking water. The crew dug channels around the perimeter of the basement and then placed the WaterGuard in those channels. Once in place, the WaterGuard is covered with rocks and cement. Next, the crew installed the SuperSump + Pump System. This sump pump is designed to keep basements dry and healthy for long periods, even during heavy water intrusion. Following the SuperSump+ installation, the crew installed an Aprilaire in the home. The Aprilaire is a dehumidifier that creates healthy air and can reduce the number of viable viruses in the air. Once the Aprilaire was installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was relieved to know their basement was properly waterproofed.

Once Eric arrived, he greeted the homeowner and looked at their concerning wall. Eric looked at the foundation well and recommended having the walls permanently stabilized. The homeowner agreed with Eric's recommendations, so he sent the plans back to the production team. Our Foreman, Jeremiah, and his crew were assigned to complete the project. When they arrived at the home, Jeremiah and his crew began by installing the WaterGuard around the entire basement. The WaterGuard is a below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. The crew installs the WaterGuard by digging channels around the perimeter of the basement floor. Once the channels are dug, the crew can go ahead and place the drainage stone in the channels. The WaterGuard is then placed on top of the stone and covered with cement. After the WaterGuard was installed, the crew took out the old sump pump and replaced it with the SuperSump+. To connect the SuperSump+ to the WaterGuard, the crew installed a feedline across the foundation floor. The crew installed the IceGuard, an anti-freeze fitting, on the outside discharge line. After all the products were properly installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was put at ease knowing their basement was no longer a flooding risk.

Our Foreman, Matt, and his production team began the project by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a waterway trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System, which collects water from the basement walls, prevents water and mud from plugging up, and it serves as an underground drain that works efficiently with the sump pump. Next, our team installed our SuperSump Plus M53 sump pump system in the corner of the basement, which is made to keep basements clean and dry for long periods of time. Lastly, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the wall perimeter, which is made to prevent mold and humidity build-up, gives the basement a clean and neat appearance, and saves money on energy bills. To complete the installation, our team filled the open gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over them.

Michael L. in Worthington, MN had a porch that had sunk over three inches, which caused a large void in the staircase leading to his front door. He started to look into concrete repair, hoping he could find a quick and affordable solution. He came across American Waterworks and was intrigued by the PolyLevel foam concrete repair solution that we provide, so he scheduled a FREE estimate to learn more.

One of our Design Specialists, Eric, went to Michael’s home to develop a personalized solution for his problem, and provide him with a quote on the spot. Michael was happy to learn that we could raise his porch in an effective, affordable and non-invasive manner.

One of our PolyLevel experts drilled holes small holes into the concrete on Michael’s stoop. He then injected the PolyLevel foam until the stoop was raised and the void in the staircase had been closed. After the porch was level, he filled the cracks in the concrete with our Nexus Pro sealant to protect the concrete. The entire process only took a couple of hours, and now Michael can enjoy a level and more appealing stoop for years to come!
