Before & After Photos

Madella, a homeowner in Oakes, ND, was having significant issues in her basement space; water was entering the basement at the cove joint, where the floor and wall meet.

Specifically, with musty smells, mold, and moisture issues, Madella decided to call American Waterworks for a FREE Estimate. Our Design Specialist, Richie, headed to the property for an inspection, and once Madella and Richie chatted, a plan was made to implement solutions.

Our Foreman, Arturo, and his crew began the project by clearing debris and readying the spaces for installation. Richie had advised Madella to invest in our WaterGuard system. This particular system is typically used in basements and is the premier choice for basement waterproofing as it is installed below the floor but rests atop the foundation, keeping it out of the "mud zone", making it harder to clog. Next, the team installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier to address water Issues. CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof plastic barrier installed right onto the problem walls and works to catch water entering the space through cracks and holes in the wall. This also reduces the home's chances of being exposed to radon. The crew also used spray foam to seal and waterproof the homeowner's crawl space. Our spray foam is designed to keep the heat inside and prevent cool air from coming in.

A homeowner in Oakes, ND, tripped walking into their home one evening. Concered that others would be injured, the homeowner knew they needed to fix the issue. The homeowner began looking into "sunken concrete repair near Oakes, ND" and their eye was caught by us, American Waterworks. After seeing our impressive reviews and services, the homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, we sent one of our Design Specialists, Dylan, to the home to inspect the sinking concrete. During his investigation, Dylan discovered the walkway was sinking into the ground due to settlement. To stop the settlement from continuing, Dylan recommended lifting and leveling the walkway back to its original state. The homeowner agreed with Dylan's recommendations, so he sent the proposal to our Logistics team to build the project. Once the project was built, the proposal was sent to our Foreman, Charlie, and his crew. Charlie and his crew traveled to the home and started the lift. The crew utilized PolyLevel, our polyurethane foam injection solution, to lift the walkway back to its original level. Once the walkway was lifted back to its original level, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the front yard cleaner than they arrived. American Waterworks is happy to repair its homeowner's struggling concrete. 

John S. of Luverne, MN had water leaking from the walls in his basement, so he gave American Waterworks a call to set up a Free Estimate. We sent out our Design Specialist, Eric Hazelton, to diagnose the problem and come up with a solution. After a careful inspection, Eric proposed our CleanSpace Wall System. John got all of his questions answered and felt comfortable, so he went ahead and scheduled the installation date.

Our foreman, Lane Schlobohm, and his production team installed 114 feet of our CleanSpace around the perimeter of the basement walls. Our CleanSpace Wall System is mechanically connected with plastic fasteners to walls so it never falls. It also prevents any humidity from invading the walls and gives the basement and clean and bright appearance with a 25-year-warranty. John was satisfied with the outcome, and was happy he no longer had to worry about his basement walls leaking! 

Elaine and Ray H. of Luverne, MN had water leaking through the cracks of their foundation wall, causing them to have concerns about water moisture and the structural build of their home. They messaged our webchat and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Ryan Powell. Ryan went to their home to inspect the problems and come up with proper solutions. After a thorough inspection, Elaine and Ray felt comfortable with Ryan's proposal, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Dylon VanCanneyt, and his team started the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which serves as an underground drain, prevents water clogs, and collects water seepage from basement walls. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the wall perimeter, which prevents humidity, mold, and water moisture, and covers any big holes or divots. Lastly, our team installed eight of our Geo-Lock C-Channel Anchors and eight of our GeoLock Wall Anchors, to straighten the cracked walls and stabilize them to their natural positions. To complete the work, our team covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. The homeowners were happy with the work and were grateful we were able to help them and their home repair needs!

A Luverne, MN, homeowner was facing an issue. A year ago, she had purchased a home that was now taking on significant water. The homeowner was stumped, as the home came with not 1, but 2 sum pumps already placed. Disgruntled, she decided to search for a company to service her sump pump system. After finding our website, she decided to sign up for her FREE estimate, and several weeks later, Dylan W, headed out to the home. 

When Dylan arrived, he got right to work conducting his estimate inspection. When he completed it, he met with the homeowner to discuss his recommendations. First, Dylan wanted to rip out the two old sump pumps and install 2 of our SuperSump sump pumps. For an effective and more economical solution, consider our SuperSump sump pump. It is engineered to help keep the basement dry and healthy for extended periods of time, even in times of heavy water intrusion. The SuperSump® includes a powerful Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement. The SuperSump® can be installed with an optional UltraSump® Battery Backup Sump Pump, which can pump out 11,500 gallons or more on a single charge! The homeowner liked the sound of upgraded systems, so she scheduled her job for several weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, Francisco E, our Foreman, led his team through the installation. When they had finished, our customer had two properly functioning systems that were up to the challenge of keeping her basement dry!
