Leaking Basement Gets Waterproofed in Hayfield, MN

A homeowner in Hayfield, MN, had noticed water seeping into their basement and was concerned about the long-term damage it would cause. Knowing the issue must be addressed immediately, the homeowner began looking into basement waterproofing services and contacted us to schedule their FREE estimate.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Dustin A., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, he took a close look at the areas where water intrusion was present. After reporting his findings to the homeowner, Dustin created a proposal tailored to the homeowner's budget and issue. In that proposal, Dustin recommended WaterGuard, our perimeter drainage system, CleanSpace, our vapor wall barrier, SuperSump+, our reliable sump pump system, IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line, and Aprilaire, our strong dehumidifier. After reviewing the proposal, the homeowner happily agreed with the recommendations and proceeded with the project.

In a couple of months, our Foreman, Kiko P., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew installed 54ft of WaterGuard, 44ft of CleanSpace, 1 SuperSump+, 1 IceGuard, and 1 Aprilaire. After the successful installation, the crew cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Basement Waterproofing in Pine River, MN

Water was leaking into the Pine River Methodist Church causing water moisture, flooding hazards, and a funky smell. They called American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Chad Johnson. Chad went to the church, inspected the problems, and came up with a solution that worked for management and their budget. Management was confident in Chad's proposal and presentation, so they signed the contract, wrote out a deposit check, and got the installation project on the schedule. 

Our Foreman, Ryan Loe, and his production team began the repairs by taking back the carpet, and breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System, which is made to prevent water and mud clogs, collect water seepage from basement walls, and serve as an underground drain. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier System around the half-wall perimeter. Our CleanSpace is made to prevent mold and humidity, act as an extra wall protectant, and guide water into the WaterGuard System. Lastly, Ryan and his crew installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System in the corner. Our TripleSafe is the best sump pump we provide for homeowners, it solves all three water problems in one system, and it provides three layers of protection. To complete the installation, our crew covered and filled the open gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over it. The customer was happy with the repairs and had a great experience with our team!

RockWell Gets Installed in Farmington, MN

A customer from Farmington, MN got in contact with us when they began to notice that their downstairs block window well was beginning to show signs of failing. They fear that if they left the issue alone, they would run the risk of severely compromising the structural integrity of the retaining wall, which would cause the basement to be inescapable in case of emergency. When they called in, we set them up with our FREE estimate, entitling them to a free, no-obligation estimate by one of our Design Specialists. Once the appointment was set, one of our Design Specialists, Josh, headed out to the property to assess the damage. Once he completed his walkthrough, he was able to make his recommendations. He told the homeowner that her best bet would be to let our crews install a RockWell window well. Josh explained that this well offers an attractive alternative to ugly window wells while providing safe, code-compliant basement egress. Our customer agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Gabriel, and his crew began the process by excavating around the already in-place window. Next, they installed the RockWell and secured it in place. Finally, they added a cover to keep leaves and debris out while allowing natural sunlight into the space. Once the job was done our customer was thrilled to know they could go back to using their basement without worries of it not being up to code!
