Before & After Photos

A homeowner from Saint Paul, MN, had noticed a draft in his home. Try as he might, he could not locate the source of the draft. After weeks of dealing with the issue, it occurred to him that the draft could be coming from the crawl space beneath the home. He took to the internet to search for the 'best crawl space repair near me' and quickly found our website. He signed up for his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Nick S, was headed out to the home. 

When Nick arrived, he wasted no time getting down into the crawl space. When he completed his inspection, he met with the homeowner to let him know the situation. Nick began by stating that the crawl space was certainly energy inefficient, letting cold and hot air in. Nick wanted to fix the issue with our TerraBlock floor insulation system. Nick explained that our TerraBlock is a durable, long-lasting insulation product designed specifically for crawl space floors to help combat these issues. Able to be installed on uneven floors, this product includes a white vapor barrier that will keep moisture from making its way up through dirt, stone, or concrete crawl space floors. It will seamlessly protect your home, keeping your energy bills low and preventing further problems caused by your crawl space from arising. Nick went on to recommend our Foamax Wall Insulation for the walls of the space. He explained that Foamax is a polyisocyanurate foam insulation panel with a white foil finish on the front and foil vapor barrier on the back. Finally, Nick recommended our CleanSpace vapor barrier, a 100% waterproof tarp-like material that gets installed directly onto the unfinished walls of the space, effectively sealing off the space from unwanted water, weather elements, and critters. The homeowner was thrilled with Nick's recommendations and signed on the spot. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Diego B, and his team installed 110 sqft of Foamax, 100 sqft of TerraBlock, and 154 sqft of CleanSpace. Now that the job is completed, our homeowner is thrilled to know that his crawl space is functioning efficiently!

He learned that it was a possible issue with his crawl space as a poorly insulated crawl space can cause the pipes in the home to take a longer time to heat up. The homeowner then decided to look for crawl space repair in the area and found our website and contacted us to schedule his FREE estimate. 

In a couple of weeks, one of our Design Specialist arrived at the home. During his inspection, he noticed that the crawl space was filled with dirt and faced water damage.

Following heavy rainfall, a homeowner in Calmar, IA, knew they needed to inspect their basement for any damage. The homeowner went to the basement and made a startling discovery, several wet spots throughout the basement. Knowing this would only worsen, the homeowner knew they needed to find a lasting solution. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner began looking into basement waterproofing companies near Calmar, IA. Our stellar reviews and ratings immediately caught the homeowner's attention, so they went to our website and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, we sent one of our Iowa-based Design Specialists, Brady, to the home to begin the estimate appointment. During his investigation, Brady found that several areas in the basement where water was sneaking in. Brady completed the estimate appointment and was able to provide the homeowner with a solution to the issue. After hearing Brady's proposal, the homeowner knew this was their best option, so they agreed. Brady sent the plans to our Office, then they passed the plans along to our Foreman, Juan, and his crew. Once they received the proposal, Juan and his crew traveled to Calmar and began the waterproofing project. First, Juan and his crew started by installing WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. Next, the crew took out the old sump pump and replaced it with the SuperSump+. Once the SuperSump+ was secured, the crew dug a feedline to connect the WaterGuard to the new sump. Finally, the crew attached CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. Juan and his crew wrapped up the project and left the basement better than they arrived. The homeowner was impressed with the transformation done by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to transform its customer's basements and eliminate any water intrusion issues. 

A homeowner from Lake City, MN, had noticed her basement walls were leaking after heavy rain in the area. She was concerned about what leaking walls could mean for her house, so she immediately began to search for 'interior basement waterproofing near me' and quickly found our website. She signed up for her FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Darin S, headed out to the home. 

Upon his arrival, Darin got right to work assessing the space. Once he finished, he was ready to meet with the homeowner to deliver recommendations. Darin began by saying that the homeowner did the right thing by seeking a professional's help. He explained that water intrusion issues are often simpler to tackle when they're first noticed versus years down the road. Darin wanted a comprehensive system for this basement to ensure that unwanted water was a thing of the past. First, he recommended the installation of our CleanSpace vapor barrier. CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof tarp-like material that gets installed directly onto unfinished basement walls, acting to catch water entering through small cracks and holes in the foundation, directing it downward and into our WaterGuard system. This unique French drain gets installed below the basement floor but atop the footing of the foundation, keeping it out of the 'mud zone' where similar drains tend to clog. This drain works to trap water entering from the CleanSpace, as well as any water coming up through holes in the floor, giving it a channel to flow freely to the appropriate disposal site. Darin noted that the basement lacked a means of disposing of unwanted water, so he recommended our SuperSump Plus, an effective yet economical decision for combating unwanted water. The homeowner loved the idea of our products working together to keep the basement dry and signed on the spot. 

When the day of the installation eventually rolled around, our Foreman, Lane S, and his team arrived bright and early to complete the project. In the end, they successfully installed 95ft of WaterGuard, 79ft of CleanSpace, and 1 SuperSump Plus sump pump. Now, our customer can enjoy the rain, confidently knowing that her basement has the best line of defense against water!
