Before & After Photos

St. Mary's University in Minneapolis, MN had water seeping into their basement, causing their flooring to soak up water. Our basement waterproofing crew installed our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain, CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier, and our TripleSafe Sump Pump System. Our WaterGuard is designed as an interior drainage system that prevents water clogs and collects water seepage from basement walls. Our CleanSpace is designed to prevent mold and humidity, while also saving money on energy costs and providing light to the basement. Lastly, our TripleSafe is the best sump pump we provide for homeowners because of its ability to solve all three water problems in one unit. 

The property manager was happy with the work that was done, and had a great experience!

Benjamin L. of Bloomington, MN wanted to get his basement finished but he needed the proper waterproofing systems to be installed first before doing that. One of his peers referred American Waterworks so he went ahead and worked with our team. Our design specialist, Russ, inspected Benjamin's basement and drew out a detailed plan. Benjamin was confident in Russ's presentation and proposal, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Jeromy, and his crew installed our SuperSump Plus M53, which is a sump pump designed to discharge water out of the basement by keeping it away from the foundation. Benjamin was happy with the results and was grateful we could assist him with his needs.

A homeowner from Minneapolis, MN, had just learned about the dangers of radon gas in a household. She didn't know much about Minneapolis radon companies, so she took to the internet. After searching for Minneapolis radon mitigation, she quickly found our website. She was impressed with our photo galleries of other radon systems we had installed in her area, so she signed up for her FREE estimate. Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Romeo V, was headed out to the home. 

When Romeo arrived, his first order of business was placing a continuous radon monitoring test in the lowest level of the home. This test functions to capture radon levels within the home over a 48-hour timespan, delivering the average level of radon after the test. Romeo explained to the homeowner that, should the levels come back higher than 4 pCi/L, she should strongly consider a radon mitigation system. He explained that 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. He went on to say that, when installed by an experienced radon mitigation specialist, a radon mitigation system will lower the concentration of radon gas in your interior air to minimal levels recommended by the EPA and other health and safety agencies. The homeowner liked Romeo's comprehensive plan and decided to wait until her levels returned to make a choice. A few days later, Romeo returned to the home to collect the results, which returned well above the Environmental Protection Agency recommended level of 4 pCi/L, so the homeowner worked with Romeo to find a good installation date. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Geno, led his team through a seamless installation of the mitigation system. When they concluded, our customer was happy to know that she and her family would be breathing in clean air from now on!

A homeowner from Saint Anthony, MN, got in touch with us after they conducted an at-home radon gas test. The homeowner was disconcerted when the levels came back high and decided to look into Minnesota radon specialists. When the homeowner found our website, he signed up for one of our FREE estimates, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Nick S, was headed out to the home. 

When Nick arrived, he first met with the homeowner. He informed them that because the levels of radon gas returned so high, he would strongly urge them to consider a radon gas mitigation system. Nick elaborated, explaining that 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. He went on to say that when installed by an experienced professional, a radon mitigation system will lower the concentration of radon gas in the interior air to the minimal levels recommended by the EPA and other health safety agencies. With that, Nick left the homeowner to think about the recommendation while he continued his inspection, scoping out the best place for a radon mitigation system. When the inspection was completed, the homeowner decided to schedule his project with Nick. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Geno M, and his team seamlessly installed the mitigation system, successfully restoring our customer's faith in the air circulating his home!

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN, was scrolling through social media when he came upon a post discussing the dangers of radon. He learned that radon is a by-product of uranium, which can be found in soil. As soil decays, it releases radon gas, which creates a high toxicity level in the air. Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer, second only to cigarette smoking. After learning this information, the homeowner went to his local convenience store to purchase a radon test kit. In a couple of days, the test results were above 4 pCi/L, and the homeowner quickly began searching for radon mitigation services in the area. The homeowner came upon our website and was impressed with our reviews. He contacted us and claimed his FREE estimate.  

Our Design Specialist, Mitch S., arrived at the home, and the homeowner informed him that he had already tested the radon levels of his home and would like our radon mitigation system installed. Mitch understood and quickly got to work designing where the system would be installed. He explained to the homeowner that our radon mitigation system would be installed at the home's lowest level and consist of a large-diameter plastic pipe that would connect the air beneath the foundation to outdoors. The homeowner understood and agreed to his design.

In about a month, our Foreman, Dakota M., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They would drill a hole at the footing and place a PVC pipe, which would then connect the system that is installed outside of the home. This design tackles the radon-rich air by spewing it outside before it can reach the home. Once the crew was done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home. 

Now, our customer and his family can breathe in fresh and clean air! Are you experiencing something similar? Click HERE to schedule your FREE estimate today!
