Ramp Entrance Sinking in Osseo, MN

A homeowner from Osseo, MN, was growing frustrated with a piece of concrete leading up to an accessibility ramp that leads to an entrance to the house. Worried about wheelchair accessibility, the homeowner decided to look for companies that could fix the issue. When he came across one of our ads in a newspaper, he decided to give us a call and claim his FREE estimate. A few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Kyle P, headed out to the home to see what could be done. 

Once Kyle finished his inspection, he informed the homeowner that his issue could be fixed with our PolyLevel lifting solution. Our PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that expands when injected below concrete, filling voids left by soil erosion and slowing lifting the slab back to its desired position. Kyle finished by saying that we finished our lifting process by installing our NexusPro. A silicone-based sealant, NexusPro gets applied to all cracks and joints in the concrete to prevent unwanted moisture from getting below the slab, potentially compromising the lift. The homeowner agreed to the proposed work and the project was scheduled for a few weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Jordan, and his team made quick work of the installation. Now that the job is complete, our customers are thrilled to have full accessibility for wheelchairs!

Crawl Space Encapsulation in Gonvick, MN

A resident of Gonvick, MN had a musty and dirty crawl space that they wanted to use for extra storage space and other house needs. They got in contact with American Waterworks after web-chatting us on our website and scheduled a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist went to the homeowner's home to take a look at their crawl space and determine a solution. Our Design Specialist proposed our TerraBlock and CleanSpace Encapsulation Vapor Barrier. The resident was confident in the solution so they followed through with the project. 

Our Foreman and his production crew began the process by installing our TerraBlock over the crawl space dirt floor. This product provides insulation and moisture protection and is durable enough to withstand people walking on it. Next, our crew installed our CleanSpace Encapsulation Vapor Barrier, which transforms the crawl space into a dry, clean, and energy-efficient part of the home. It also prevents mold, insects, and other pests from invading the space. The installation took less than a day and the homeowner was very satisfied with the final product!

Wet Crawl Space in Dodge Center, MN

Pat N. in Dodge Center, MN has a large crawl space under her home. She noticed that the pipes had started freezing in the winter and that pests were getting in through that space. She saw that American Waterworks can waterproof and encapsulate crawl spaces on one of our commercials, so she decided to contact us and see how we could help her.

We sent one of our Design Specialists, Pete Wangen, to her home to look at her crawl space and give her a FREE estimate. Pete was able to develop a solid plan to waterproof and encapsulate her crawl space, so she would not have to deal with these frustrations again. She was pleased with Pete's proposal, so an installation date was set. 

Our production team installed a SmartDrain crawl space sump pump, SilverGlo, our TerraBlock vapor barrier, CleanSpace and an EverLast crawl space door. The combination of these crawl space repair products created a clean, dry and energy efficient space for Pat. She no longer has the frustration of dealing with critters getting into her home or freezing pipes in the winter. She also is enjoying savings on her energy bill. Pat is glad she made the investment to protect her home by repairing her crawl space.

Dirt Crawl Space Encapsulated in Elkton, MN

Ron H. in Elkton, MN had a musty smell coming from his dirt crawl space. He also noticed that it was very humid and he was concerned that energy was being lost through the crawl space. He saw a commercial for American Waterworks and was interested to learn more about our crawl space encapsulation services, so he contacted us for a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists went to his home to inspect his crawl space and develop a solution. We were able to confirm that there was quite a bit of moisture accumulating in his crawl space which was causing the musty smell. We also confirmed that energy was being wasted because his crawl space was not insulated. We presented him with an encapsulation plan and he was pleased with the proposal, so he scheduled a date for the project.

Our production team installed drainage matting along the dirt floor and installed our SuperSump sump pump in the corner of the crawl space. Then, they encapsulated the crawl space with our CleanSpace vapor barrier system which protects the space from moisture and potential mold growth. Lastly, they placed a SaniDry dehumidifier in the crawl space to control the humidity. The process took a couple of days to complete, but Ron now has a bright, clean and healthy crawl space. He is also saving money on his energy bill each month.
