Damp Basement Gets a Makeover in Glenville, MN
A homeowner from Glenville, MN, was growing frustrated with his damp basement. It had been hot and humid for years, and in the interest of one day selling the property, the homeowner decided to begin the search for a basement waterproofing company in Glenville, MN. When he found our website, he decided to sign up for one of our FREE estimates, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Brady, headed out to the home.
Once Brady concluded his inspection, he informed the homeowner that his professional recommendation would be to install our Basement to Beautiful Insulated Wall Panels. Brady explained that unfinished basements are notorious for lacking proper insulation, leading to cold floors, humid basements, and inefficient homes. Basement To Beautiful™ Basement Wall Panels are the superior choice for a dry, energy-efficient basement. Designed with the unique, advanced SilverGlo™ graphite-infused foam insulation, this insulation provides 24% more energy savings than conventional foam products. At 2 ½" thick and R-13 insulation, Basement To Beautiful™ panels create a warm, protective blanket around your basement that will never rot or support mold growth. The homeowner agreed with Brady's recommendations, and the job was scheduled for a few months later.
On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Francisco, and his team ended up installing 79 ft of our Basement to Beautiful panels. Now, our customer can enjoy his home, knowing it's functioning efficiently!
Basement Waterproofing in Sebeka, MN
Carrie and Justin R. of Sebeka, MN had water leaking into their basement, causing them to worry about their basement and other kinds of water damage. They heard about American Waterworks and got in contact with our office staff. We set them up with a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Ian Schultz. Ian went to their home, examined the problems, and came up with a solution that fit their needs. After a two-hour inspection and a written estimate, Carrie and Justin were comfortable with Ian's design and proposal, so they went ahead with the project.
Our Foreman, Corey Tollefson, and his production team began the process by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer, 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. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier which is made to prevent any mold or humidity build-up, cover any holes or divots, and give the space a neat and clean appearance. Lastly, Corey and his crew installed our SuperSump Plus M53 sump pump which is made to keep basements dry for long periods of time. To complete the project, our team covered the open gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over it. Carrie and Justin were very happy with the repairs and had a great experience from start to finish!

WaterGuard and TripleSafe Keep Basement Dry in Rockford, IA
Rita H. in Rockford, IA was tired of dealing with a wet basement after every heavy rain and snow melt. It was starting to cause damage to her home, and she knew she needed to find a permanent solution. She contacted American Waterworks, and we sent one of our Design Specialists, Pete Wangen, to meet with her and propose a unique solution for her home.
Our Foreman, Austin Lucas, and his production crew installed 112 feet of our WaterGuard drainage system around the perimeter of the basement, and our recommended TripleSafe sump pump in the corner.

CleanSpace Saves Crawl Space in Rockford, IA
A homeowner in Rockford, IA, knew it was almost time for their annual service appointment. To confirm their appointment, the homeowner contacted our Service team. Our service team confirmed the appointment and shared that one of our Service Technicians, Braden, would be attending the appointment. A few weeks later, the appointment date arrived and Braden traveled to the home to begin. During his inspection, Braden checked to make sure all of the products were working correctly. While inspecting the crawl space, he noticed signs of water intrusion. To prevent the water intrusion from continuing, he recommended installing CleanSpace throughout the crawl space. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner decided to go ahead with his proposal. Next, Braden passed the proposal to our Logistics team to approve and finalized the plans. Our Logistics team gave the final stamp of approval, then scheduled the project for the following weeks. Once the project date arrived, our Foreman, Matt, and his crew traveled to the home to encapsulate the crawl space. First, Matt and his crew installed Drainage Matting on the floors. Once the Drainage Matting was secured, they shifted their focus to installing CleanSpace on top of the Drainage Matting. Once all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to repair its customers' damaged crawl spaces.
