Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Faribault, MN, had noticed a foul odor from their basement with a few water stains along the edges of the floor. Concerned they may be experiencing basement issues, the homeowner began to look into basement waterproofing services in the area and found us. The homeowner then contacted us to schedule their FREE estimate. 

In less than a week, our Sales Manager, Peter M., arrived at the home to conduct a thorough inspection. During the inspection, Peter had noticed multiple signs of water intrusions, such as standing water and water stains along the walls and floor. After reporting his findings to the homeowner, Peter recommended installing WaterGuard, our drainage system, CleanSpace, our vapor wall barrier, SuperSump, our reliable sump pump system, and IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line. After reviewing the proposal, the homeowner knew it was the best choice for their home and decided to move forward with the project.

In about two months, our Foreman, Lane S., and his crew arrived at the home to carry out the installation. The crew installed 20ft of WaterGuard and CleanSpace, 1 SuperSump, and 1 IceGuard. After the successful installation, the crew cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

A homeowner in Faribault, MN, had noticed signs of settling concrete around their home. Concerned that it was a trip hazard, the homeowner decided to contact our Appointment Center to schedule their FREE estimate. 

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Nate C., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, he noticed areas that had become a trip hazard. To lift the slabs back to their original positions, Nate recommended using PolyLevel, our foam expanding solution. Along with PolyLevel, Nate also recommended sealing the joints with NexusPro. After reviewing the recommendations, the homeowner happily agreed and scheduled the installation date.

In a couple of months, our Foreman, Troy J., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. After successfully lifting the concrete slabs along the driveway, walkway, and garage entrance, the crew applied NexusPro along the joints.

Matt T. of Shakopee, MN had water leaking through the corner of his unfinished basement wall during heavy rainstorms and he wanted to get it looked at it before it got any worse. He knew of an employee at American Waterworks, so he scheduled a free estimate with our Design Specialist, Tim Schneider. Tim went to his home, carefully inspected his problems, and drew out a solution that worked for him and his budget. He was confident in Tim's proposal and presentation, so he followed through with the project. 

Our Foreman, Lane Schlobohm, and his production team started the work by installing our CleanSpace Half Wall System Vapor Barrier around the basement wall perimeter, which is made to prevent mold and mildew, and it acts as an extra wall protectant. Next, our team installed our DryTrak Drain Pipe System, which is permanently installed above the floor. Our crew drilled a weep hole through each foundation block to enable the water to pour through the holes and into the drain pipe. The installation only took one day and Matt was happy with the work that was completed!

Roger and Patricia S. of Shakopee, MN were experiencing groundwater around all perimeters of their basement floor. They did some research on HomeAdvisor and found American Waterworks. They requested a FREE Estimate, so our Design Specialist went to their home to inspect the groundwater damage and drew up a solution. Roger and Patricia got all of their questions answered and were confident in the proposal of our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain, so they moved forward with the project. 

Our Foreman and his production team began the project by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer. Our team formed a trench and installed our WaterGuard in the trench. Our WaterGuard does not only serve as an interior drainage system. It also prevents mud clogs and collects water seepage from basement walls. To complete the installation, our Foreman and his crew filled the open gaps with small rocks and applied a new layer of concrete over them. Roger and Patricia were satisfied with our work and were happy with the transformation! 

A Shakopee, MN, homeowner was down in the storage unit below his stairs when he noticed large spots of mold growth on the wall. Confused as to how it could have gotten there, he decided to find a mold removal specialist. Through his searching, he found American Waterworks. He realized his issue might be due to unwanted water intrusion, so he set up a FREE estimate to see if we could be of any help. 

Several weeks later, Ryan P, one of our Design Specialists, was headed out to the home. After conducting his inspection, he met with the homeowner to inform him that his suspicions were correct, the space was taking on water, making it the perfect atmosphere for mold growth. Ryan went on to say that we had several products that could help. First, Ryan recommended our WaterGuard drain, explaining that this unique French drain is installed below the floor but atop the footing of the foundation, keeping it clear of the 'mud zone', where similar drains clog. He elaborated, saying that this drain functions to collect water entering the space through holes and cracks in the floor, giving it a channel to flow freely to a disposal site, which in this case, was a pre-placed sump pump. His second recommendation was our Foamax wall panels. Foamax is a polyisocyanurate foam insulated panel with a white foil finish on the front and a foil vapor barrier on the back. This innovative product offers several benefits such as high insulation value, creating a warm basement, brightening your space, being left exposed, and drains wall leaks to the WaterGuard system to keep the space dry and healthy. The homeowner was thrilled with Ryan's recommendations and, after some thought, signed on for the project. 

Our Foreman, Lane S, arrived several weeks later. He and his team successfully installed 22 ft of WaterGuard and Foamax, restoring the customer's peace of mind in his mold-free space!
