Damp CrawlSpace in White Bear Lake, MN

A real estate agent in White Bear Lake, MN reached out to American Waterworks after a homeowner was struggling to sell their previous home.  

American Waterworks recommended installing CleanSpace, a crawl space vapor barrier, because it is one of the most cost-effective ways to improve a home.  Along with the protection from mold and rot, a dry crawl space can free their home of insects and other pests that need excess moisture to survive.  Mice and rats are deterred by the plastic vapor barrier, and flooding waters will be kept at bay.  

Leaking Basement Wall in White Bear Lake, MN Waterproofed

A homeowner in White Bear Lake, MN, noticed that the moisture levels in her basement have been higher than normal. Wanting to address the issue right away, the homeowner decided to contact us to schedule her FREE basement waterproofing estimate. 

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Daniel R., arrived at the home to provide a thorough inspection, answer questions, and create a proposal with the best solution for the homeowner's issue. During the inspection, Daniel noticed that the walls were holding a lot of water, causing mold to grow in some areas. Daniel recommended SuperSump+, our elite sump pump system that is capable of removing 2,200 gallons of water per hour, IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line that allows water to escape in case the pipes freeze, WaterGuard, our below-the-floor perimeter drain system that collects water and directs it to the sump pump, and CleanSpace, our vapor wall barrier that prevents water from permeating the walls and directs it to the drain system. After reviewing Daniel's proposal, the homeowner happily agreed and decided to move forward with the project. 

In a couple of weeks, our Foreman, Arturo M., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They installed 1 SuperSump+, 1 IceGuard, and 58ft of CleanSpace and WaterGuard. After they were done, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Basement Properly Waterproofed in Byron, MN

A homeowner in Byron, MN, was cleaning their basement when they discovered the bottom panels of their walls were damp. Concerned by this discovery, the homeowner wanted to find a solution fast! The homeowner did an online search and came across our website. Impressed by the many services we offer, the homeowner knew we would have a solution for them. The homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate online and prepared for the arrival of Darin, one of our Design Specialists. Once Darin arrived, the homeowner explained their issue and he began inspecting the basement. Darin completed the estimate and determined that the basement needed to be fully waterproofed. After explaining what was happening in their home, Darin recommended installing the WaterGuard around the basement perimeter. The homeowner agreed with Darin's recommendations, so production plans were sent to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Kiko, and his crew made their way out to the home to complete the project. Kiko and his crew began by prepping the basement for production. Once the basement was ready, the crew installed the WaterGuard around the entire perimeter. Additionally, the crew dug a feedline so it ties into their current sump system. After the WaterGuard was placed and covered, the crew put the basement back together. The homeowner was delighted to know their basement was properly waterproofed. American Waterworks is glad to provide another homeowner peace of mind.
