Before & After Photos

A homeowner's basement in Lime Springs, IA, had flooded after an intense thunderstorm. Frantic to find a solution, the homeowners searched for basement waterproofing options closest to them. Luckily for the homeowner, they came across our Facebook page and knew we were the best choice for them. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of one of our Design Specialists, Ryan. After Ryan arrived at the home, he started his inspection of the basement. Ryan completed the entire basement walk-through and found many waterproofing issues in the basement. After Ryan alerted the homeowner of his findings, he was able to provide them with a solution. Ryan recommended installing several waterproofing products in the basement to protect it from further intrusion. The homeowner agreed with Ryan's recommendations and the plans were finalized by the office. Once approved by the office, they were sent to our Foreman, Raul, and his crew. Raul and his crew arrived at the home and started by installing WaterGuard around the entire perimeter of the basement. Once the WaterGuard was installed, the crew took out the previous sump pump and replaced it with the TripleSafe Sump Pump. Next, the crew tied the TripleSafe Sump Pump into the WaterGuard system. Finally, the crew attached CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. As soon as all the products were installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was relieved to know their basement was properly waterproofed and repaired. American Waterworks is happy to provide homeowners with that peace of mind. 

A homeowner in Lime Springs, IA, knew it was time to schedule their annual maintenance appointment. Hoping to schedule it before the heavy rain season, the homeowner called our service team to get it scheduled. Once their appointment was scheduled, one of our Service Technicians, Jack, was scheduled to travel to the home the following week. After Jack arrived, he started by inspecting the products previously installed in the basement. Once Jack confirmed all the products were running properly. However, Jack discovered several walls were water-damaged and needed to be permanently waterproofed. Jack presented his solution to the homeowner and they agreed. Once Jack received the homeowner's approval, he sent the proposal to our Logistics team to build and schedule the project. Our Logistics team finalized the plans, then they were scheduled to with our Foreman, Juan, and his crew. A month later, Juan and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. Juan and his crew started the project by installing WaterGuard along the south basement wall. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew shifted their focus to taking out the old sump pump and replacing it with the SuperSump+. Finally, the crew completed the project by installing CleanSpace on the unfinished basement wall. Once all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew, so they left a five-star review. American Waterworks is happy to maintain and assist its homeowners in making sure their basement is properly repaired. 

Brent B. of Stewartville, MN wanted to have an Egress Window installed. They found American Waterworks on HomeAdvisor, so they scheduled a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist, Jesse, went to Brent's house, carefully inspected her window, and proposed a quote for the job. Brent was confident in the proposal, so he went ahead with the project.

Our Foreman, Jose C., and his crew excavated the soil around the foundation, broke out the foundation wall, and installed our Egress Window and RockWell Window Well. Our Egress Windows are designed to allow a safe exit out of the home, provide a more inviting entrance to the basement, and bring in more fresh air. Our RockWell Window Well is a one-piece construction that is made for safety and is a great alternative to ugly window windows. To complete the project, our crew backfilled and compacted the soil, ensuring the space was neater and cleaner than when they found it.

A homeowner from Stewartville, MN contact us when they began to notice unwanted cold air entering their crawl space, creating an energy inefficient space. When they called in, we set them up with our FREE estimate, entitling them to a thorough inspection by one of our System Design Specialists, Pete. After Pete finished his walkthrough, he made his recommendations as to how we could help. He wanted to use our CleanSpace vapor barrier to address any unwanted water, as well as aid in making the space more energy efficient. The homeowners quickly agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Lane, and his crew ended up installing over 1,400 sq ft of our CleanSpace throughout the crawl space with no hassle. They ended the project by spraying any remaining holes or joints with our spray foam. Now our customer can head into the winter months without worrying about their crawl space costing extra money!  

A Red Lake, MN, homeowner had noticed a peculiar smell wafting through his home. Try as he may, he could not find the source of the odor. After a heavy night of rain, he realized that it might not be something in the home that was expired but potentially something in his crawl space beneath the home. He began to look for MN crawl space contractors and quickly found our website. He was impressed with other crawl space sealing jobs we had done and decided to schedule his FREE estimate. 

Several weeks later, Ian S, one of our Design Specialists, was headed out to the home. When he arrived, he wasted no time gearing up and getting down into the crawl space to assess the issue. Quickly, the homeowner's worries were confirmed. Small holes or cracks in the crawl space had led to standing water and the growth of mold and mildew, which the odor could be attributed to. Ian recommended three of our products that he believed would help the issue. First, Ian recommended our CleanSpace. This 100% waterproof tarp-like material gets installed directly onto the walls and floors of the crawl space. It acts to collect water entering through small holes and cracks in the foundation of the home, keeping it out of the crawl space. Ian knew that if the liner was flush with the crawl space ground, trapped water would, again, have nowhere to go. For this reason, he recommended our drainage matting be installed below the CleanSpace on the ground of the space. The raised dimples on our drainage matting give the water flooding into your crawl space a channel underneath your crawl space liner. Now that Ian had created a channel for water to flow, he needed a means of disposal. In this case, Ian recommended our SuperSump sump pump be placed in the space This powerful, yet economical, pump is engineered to help keep your home dry and healthy for extended periods. It boasts a powerful Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement. The homeowner liked the sound of Ian's plan and decided to schedule the job for later in the year.

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Kingsley, led his team through the installation of 1 SuperSump pump, 1128 sqft of CleanSpace, and another 900 sqft of drainage matting. Now, our customers can enjoy an odor-free home!
