Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Atwater, MN saw a commercial on television discussing the dangers of high radon levels. Concerned about the levels, the homeowner wanted to have their home tested. After hearing we completed radon testing, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once their estimate was finalized, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of Kevin, one of our Design Specialists. Kevin arrived at the home and began the radon testing. Following the test, the results were 8pCi/l, alarmingly high. After sharing these results with the homeowner, Kevin recommended that a radon mitigation system be installed on the home. The homeowner immediately agreed and the plans were sent to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Dakota, and his crew traveled to the home to install the radon mitigation system on the home. After reviewing Kevin's plans, the crew placed the radon mitigation system on the side on the west side of the home. Once the radon system was successfully installed on the side of the home, the crew cleaned up their materials and left. The homeowner was relieved to know their high radon risk was eliminated and their levels were normal. American Waterworks is happy to eliminate radon risks in our customers' homes. 

A male homeowner had water leaking into his basement and he wanted to get it repaired so he could live in a useable space. He knew of our Design Specialist, Richie, so he discussed his issues with him. Richie shared with him that we provide FREE Estimates, so the homeowner scheduled the inspection for Richie to come out to his home. He carefully inspected the homeowner's problems and proposed the solution of our WaterGuard Drainage System. Our WaterGuard is made to collect water leakage from basement walls, serve as an underground drain, and prevent water and mud clogs. This drainage system is one of the most common waterproofing products that we provide because of its many advantages and benefits to the home. The homeowner got all of their questions answered, so they followed through with the project and scheduled a date for the installation. 

Our Foreman and his production team broke out the entire concrete perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed 136 feet of WaterGuard Drainage System. The installation took one and a half days, and the homeowner couldn't believe the transformation and how many buckets of concrete our crew had to haul!

A customer from Audubon, MN got in contact with us when he began to notice water entering his crawl space, creating musty odors and rotting wood. He was afraid that if left the condition untouched, it might compromise the structural integrity of the space. When he called our Appointment Center, we set him up with our FREE estimate, entitling him to a thorough inspection of the issue. Once the appointment was scheduled, our Design Specialist, Kole, headed out to the property to do a walkthrough. Once completed, Kole was able to make recommendations about how to fix the issue. He recommended the use of our CleanSpace vapor barrier. He explained that, along with our Drainage Matting, these two would work together to trap and drain the unwanted water from the space to the appropriate disposal site. The customer agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Production crew, led by our Foreman, Arturo, ended up wrapping the crawl space in 463 sqft of CleanSpace, and installing 346 sqft of our drainage matting. They ended the job by sealing up any remaining cracks and holes with our spray foam, a hardening foam that works to block water intrusion. Once the job was done, our customer was happy to know that unwanted water intrusion was a worry of the past! 

A homeowner from Audubon, MN, had recently learned about the threats that Radon gas. She had run to her local home improvement store and picked up an at-home radon monitoring test. After conducting the test, she was alarmed when the test returned with results in the double digits. She knew she couldn't leave this issue unresolved, so she began to look for radon mitigation companies in Minnesota. After coming across our website, she decided to claim her FREE estimate, and several weeks later, one of our Design Specialists, Dylan J, was headed out to the home. 

Once Dylan completed his inspection, he informed the homeowner that he was recommending the installation of one of our radon mitigation systems. A typical radon mitigation system consists of a large-diameter plastic pipe that connects the air beneath your foundation to the outdoors. An in-line fan sucks radon-rich air from beneath your foundation and expels this hazardous air to the exterior. Instead of entering your basement or other living space area through numerous gaps and cracks in the foundation, radon gas is extracted from beneath your foundation before it can permeate into interior space. The homeowner liked the sound of Dylan's plan and scheduled the job on the spot. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Jackson P, made quick work of the installation of the system. Now, our customer can confidently breathe the air in her home, knowing that her levels of radon have been brought down! 

Andrew in Winthrop, MN had water leaking through his block foundation where the wall meets the floor. He had a working sump pump already in place, but without a drainage system the water had no way to reach the pump. He contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate, so we sent a Design Specialist to his home to develop a solution for Andrew. Our Specialist recommend having our WaterGuard drainage system installed and connected to the sump pump.

Andrew agreed with this solution, so our production crew started the installation by removing the concrete around the perimeter of the floor to create a trench for the WaterGuard. Then, they laid the WaterGuard drainage system and filled back the gaps with rock. They connected the drainage system into the existing sump pump and then replaced the concrete. This process only took a day to complete, and now Andrew is enjoying a dry, healthier basement.
