Before & After Photos

Heather A. of Kiester, MN had water seeping from her floor joists, making her worry about her home conditions, especially during harsh weather conditions. She called our office and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Jared Bruns. Jared went to her home, carefully inspected her water problem, and came up with a solution that fit her needs and budget. She was confident with Jared's solution of our WaterGuard Drainage System, so she went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Kiko Pena, and his production team began the project by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which is made to prevent water clogs, serve as an underground drain, and collect water seepage from basement walls. Homeowners appreciate how quickly this system is installed because it is done with minimal removal of the slab and all of the removed concrete is restored during the installation. So, just like that, Kiko and his team covered the open gaps with river rock and applied new concrete.

 A homeowner in Kiester, MN, noticed water leaking from a wall crack. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner knew they needed to find a professional to provide them with a proper solution. After looking into "leaking basement repair", the homeowner's attention was caught by us, American Waterworks. Impressed with our stellar ratings and reviews, the homeowner knew that we were the ideal company for their project. Once they signed up for their FREE estimate, the homeowner awaited the arrival of our Design Specialist, Ryan. A few days later, Ryan promptly arrived at the home and started the thorough inspection. During the inspection, Ryan confirmed the crack needed to be repaired. Ryan recommended installing Flexispan and securing an Aprilaire in the home. The homeowner agreed with Ryan's recommendations, and then they worked together to find the best installation date. Once the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Rene, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Rene and his team sealed the crack with the Flexispan. Once the crack was properly sealed, the crew secured the Aprilaire in the home. After all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. American Waterworks is happy to seal and repair its home's leaky basements, big or small! 

Fred from Cavalier, ND had been reading up on the side effects of radon gas. Fred had read that levels are higher in the Midwest than in other portions of the region, and was afraid for the lung safety of his household, should there be hazardous radon gas present. He did some research about companies that could help and found our North Dakota branch. When he called our office, we set him up with our FREE estimate by one of our Design Specialists. A few weeks later, a member of our Design Specialist team, Evan, headed out to the property to complete a radon test, which after 46-72 hours, came back showing high, hazardous levels of radon in the home. Evan explained that while the levels were high, our company could install a radon mitigation system both inside and outside of the home that would work to pull radon from the home and pipe it upwards and out of the home. Fred quickly agreed and work began some weeks after. 

Our Foreman, Zach, and his team worked quickly to install the system, and when the work was completed, Fred was happy to know that the air in his home was safe to breathe!

A homeowner in North Mankato, MN, noticed their basement walls were leaking water. Worried about the long-term damage this could cause, the homeowner began looking into a "leaking wall basement repair". While looking through all the options, the homeowner came across us, American Waterworks. Impressed with our stellar ratings and reviews, the homeowner knew we were the perfect company for their project. Since they were already on our website, the homeonwer decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Lance, to the home to take a closer look. During the estimate, Lance found several areas suffering from water intrusion. Lance recommended installing an interior French drain system, WaterGuard, along the basement floor. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner decided to go ahead with his proposal. The project was scheduled, then our Foreman, Luis, and his crew traveled to the home to begin. Luis and his crew installed the WaterGuard system along the southwest corner of the basement. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew installed a feedline from the sump pump to the northwest corner of the room. After all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. American Waterworks is happy to assist its homeowners in repairing their damaged basements. 

 Mr. Conner's foundation walls are cracking and pushing inward due to the expansive soils and hydrostatic pressure on the walls from outside his home. We recommended installing eleven Geo-Lock Wall Anchors along the bowing wall to stabilize and restore the wall back to its original position.  The soil anchors were placed in the ground outside his home. Steel rods attached to soil anchors extend through the foundation wall and wall plates. Wall plates distribute clamping pressure. Tightening nuts on the threaded ends of the rods stabilize the wall for a permanent solution.
