Basement Waterproofing Contractor in Avon, MN
Joshua H. of Avon, MN had water leaking into his old farmhouse and he was looking for options of putting in drain tile. He got in touch with American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist. Our Design Specialist went to Joshua's house, carefully inspected her problems, and proposed a system that would work for him and his needs. He was confident in the proposal of our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain and our sump pump system, so he went ahead with the project.
Our Foreman and his crew began the project by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter and installing our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain, which is an interior drainage system that collects water seepage from basement walls, and has an easily accessible service ports when it comes time for annual maintenance. Next, our crew installed our CleanSpace tape around the bottom of the wall perimeter on top of the WaterGuard, which is made to prevent water from seeping through the bottom of the wall. Lastly, our crew installed our SuperSump Plus M53, which is a sump pump made to keep basements dry for long periods of time. To complete the project, our team filled the open-floor gaps with river rock and applied a new layer of concrete over them. Joshua was happy with the work and had a great experience from start to finish!

A homeowner in New Germany, MN, sought to have their crawl space encapsulation.

Failing Wall Stabilized in Young America, MN
A Young America, MN, homeowner was down in his basement one day when he noticed a large crack running the length of his basement wall. He was concerned since he hadn't noticed the crack a week before, thinking that the wall might be failing faster than he realized. He decided to find a foundation repair contractor in his area. Through word of mouth recommendations, the homeowner quickly found American Waterworks and signed up for his FREE estimate.
Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Ryan P, was headed out to the home. When Ryan arrived he headed to the basement to get started. Upon completion, he met with the homeowner. Ryan began by saying that foundation walls are not designed to withstand pressure from the side, so when the pressure being put on the side of a wall exceeds what it can withstand, it's not uncommon for homeowners to see cracking, bowing, sliding in at the bottom, and/or tilting inward at the top. Ryan went on to say that our GeoLock wall anchors could reverse the issue, as this innovative system counteracts the pressure being put on the wall by anchoring the failing wall to the hard-packed, undisturbed soil beyond the foundation of the home. The homeowner liked the sound of Ryan's plan and scheduled the work on the spot.
Several weeks later, our Foreman, Chris N, and his team were in the basement installing the system. In the end, they installed 16 GeoLock anchors throughout the basement. Now, our customer can rest easy knowing his foundation is secure!

Patio Sinking Towards House in Belle Plaine, MN
Phil H. in Belle Plaine, MN noticed that his back patio was sloping downward towards his home. Water would pool in the corner of the patio any time it rained, and he was concerned it was going to cause bigger problems, so he started looking into concrete repair. After asking around, a few people recommended that he contact American Waterworks to get a FREE estimate for concrete repair. He gave us a call and we sent one of our Design Specialists, Brian Ramirez, to his home to inspect his concrete and provide him with a solution. Phil was happy to learn that our PolyLevel concrete repair solution is more efficient and cost-effective than traditional concrete repair, so he chose to move forward with the project.
Our concrete repair expert, Jared Wroblewski, drilled small holes into the concrete slabs for the polymer foam to be injected. He injected into the foam until the slabs were raised back to their original position. Then, he filled back the holes with concrete and sealed the cracks in the concrete with our NexusPro sealant to protect it and give it a nice, finished look. The process only took a couple of hours, and now Phil can enjoy a beautiful, level patio for years to come!
