Before & After Photos

Jim contacted American Waterworks for a free estimate in late July after seeing our concrete leveling commercials on TV.  He was interested in having about a 10 foot section of his driveway leveled, along with a section of sidewalk that had sunk near the entrance of his home. As you can see, American Waterworks was easily able to level the concrete slab using our trusted and affordable PolyLEVEL technology and prevent any further trip hazards from guests entering his home.

Jordan P in Austin, MN was suffering from water leaking into his basement during heavy rains. He wanted to have his basement repaired as soon as possible, so he started looking for a waterproofing contractor. He found the American Waterworks website and was happy to see that we offer FREE estimates. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Pete Wangen, to his home to inspect his basement and provide him with a solution. Pete designed a thorough plan that was specific to Jordan’s waterproofing needs, and Jordan decided to move forward with the installation of our waterproofing system.

Our production crew installed a full perimeter of our WaterGuard drainage system into the concrete floor and connected it to a TripleSafe sump pump, which is our most reliable sump pump. The TripleSafe is backed by three layers of protection which includes a battery backup that can pump out 11,500 gallons of water on a full charge. The water leaking into Jordan’s basement is now properly guided through the WaterGuard drainage system into the sump pump. From there, the water gets pushed through the discharge line to the outside of the home. Jordan is glad he chose a system that will protect his basement for the long-term.

A homeowner in Austin, MN had water leaking throughout their basement, causing them to worry about their basement during harsh weather conditions. They got in contact with our office line and got a FREE Estimate scheduled. Our Design Specialist went to their home, carefully examined the issues, and drew out a solution for them and their home repair needs. The homeowner was confident in the solution, so they signed the contract and moved forward with the installation. 

Our Foreman and his production team started the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System, which prevents water and mud clogs and collects water leakage from basement walls. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the entire wall perimeter. Our CleanSpace prevents mold and humidity, and gives the basement a neat and clean appearance, while also keeping the basement warm. Lastly, our team installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which solves all three water problems in one unit, provides three layers of protection, and comes up with a battery back-up, in case of power failure. To complete the project, our team covered the open floor gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over them. The homeowner was ecstatic with the repairs and had a great experience with our team!

A homeowner from Austin, MN, had recently learned about the dangers of radon gas and the risks it poses to households. She was concerned that radon gas could be in the air she and her family were breathing, so she decided to find a Minnesota radon mitigation specialist who could help. On the recommendation of a friend, he decided to sign up for one of our FREE estimates, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist was headed out to the home. 

When he arrived, he got right to work placing a continuous radon monitoring system, which works to collect radon levels in the home, reporting the average level after a certain time. Our Design Specialist explained that if the levels of radon came back higher than 4 pCi/Ls, he would recommend the installation of a radon mitigation system. 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. When installed by an experienced radon mitigation specialist, a radon abatement system will lower the concentration of radon gas in your interior air to the minimal levels recommended by the EPA and other health and safety agencies. The homeowner agreed with our Design Specialists plan, but decided to wait until the levels returned to make a choice. Several days later, the results returned, indicating higher-than-normal levels of radon in the home. The homeowner called our Design Specialist to schedule the installation. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Geno M, and his team were able to successfully install the system. Now, our customer has peace of mind knowing that only the healthiest air is circulating in her home! 

Following a heavy thunderstorm, a homeowner in Austin, MN, noticed their sump pump was not running at full capacity. The homeowner knew their sump pump needed to be replaced, so they began looking into "interior sump pump near me". After sifting through several companies, only one company stood above the rest: American Waterworks. Next, the homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate details were finalized, we sent one of our Design Specialists, Darin, to the home to take a closer look. After Darin arrived at the home, he introduced himself to the homeowner and began the thorough inspection of the basement. After taking a closer look at the sump pump, Darin confirmed it was not running at full capacity. Darin recommended taking out the old sump pump and replacing it with the TripleSafe Sump Pump, one of our elite sump pump systems. After hearing the benefits of the sump pump system, the homeowner decided to go ahead with the recommended proposal. After receiving the homeowner's stamp of approval, the plans were sent to our Logistics team to schedule and build the project. Our Logistics team gave the green light, then it was assigned to our Foreman, Luis. The following month, Luis and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Luis and his crew started by taking out the old sump pump. Once the old sump pump was removed, the homeowner installed the TripleSafe Sump Pump System, one of the most efficient sump pump systems on the market. After the TripleSafe was secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was happy to know they had one of the best sump pumps installed in their home. American Waterworks is happy to provide their homeowners peace of mind knowing their basement is secure.
