Before & After Photos

A farmer in McIntire, IA, noticed their grain pit was uneven. Worried about the lasting effects, the homeowners knew they needed to find a solution. Hoping to avoid concrete replacement, the homeowner looked into alternative concrete repair methods. The homeowner looked into "concrete lifting near McIntire, IA" and came across our website. After taking a closer look at the services we provide, the homeowner knew we were the right choice for their project. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner waited for Nate, one of our Design Specialists, to arrive. Once Nate arrived at the home, he began his thorough investigation of the affected concrete. To stop the concrete from sinking further, Nate recommended lifting it with our PolyLevel solution. Once the homeowner learned about the PolyLevel installation process, they decided to go ahead with Nate's plan. Next, Nate passed the plans to our Logistics team to build the project. Our Logistics team built the project, scheduled it, and then assigned it to our Foreman, Patrick, and his crew. Patrick and his crew traveled to the home and began the PolyLevel installation. The crew lifted the entire grain pit back to its original level. Once all the products were installed, the crew was able to clean up their materials and leave the home. The farmer was impressed with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to assist farmers repair their damaged and sinking grain pits and bins. 

Jordan K. of Holcombe, WI wanted to have their crawl space encapsulated. They heard an American Waterworks radio advertisement, so they called our office and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Chad. Chad went to Jordan's home, inspected the crawl space, and drew up a solution for the issue. Jordan was confident in Chad's plan, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Kiko, and his production team installed 640 feet of our CleanSpace Encapsulation Vapor Barrier, 400 feet of our Foamax Wall Panels, and our SmartDrain to fully waterproof the crawl space. Our vapor barrier is made to prevent mold, mildew, and rot while saving money on energy costs, and it provides more storage space. Our Foamax Wall Panels is a special foam insulation that brightens the crawl space and prevents water moisture from seeping through. Lastly, our SmartDrain guides the water into the drainage system or drain pipe. Jordan was thrilled with the work that was done and couldn't believe the project only took one day!

A homeowner in Wabasha, MN, noticed a funky smell around their home. Unsure of the cause of the smell, the homeowner began to do some investigating. Upon further investigation, the homeowner discovered the scent was strongest in the basement. Having a hunch this may lead to a bigger issue, the homeowner wanted to have a basement expert inspect their home. Knowing there were many options around them, the homeowner decided to research the 'best basement repair near Wabasha, MN'. The company at the top of the list was us, American Waterworks. The homeowner decided to look closer into our website and was immediately impressed. After seeing we offer FREE estimates, they decided to give us a try. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Mike, to inspect the basement further. Mike performed the estimate and discovered the scent was coming from the crawl space. Additionally, Mike alerted the homeowner that their home had high radon levels. Mike recommended encapsulating the crawl space and a radon mitigation system be placed. The homeowners agreed with Mike's recommendations, and the plans were passed on to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Jesus, and his crew arrived at the home to begin production. First, the crew cleaned the debris out of the crawl space. Once the crawl space was cleared, the crew could install the CleanSpace and Drainage Matting. Then, the crew shifted their focus to installing the Radon Mitigation System outside the home. Once the Radon Mitigation System was properly installed, the crew was able to clean up their job site and leave the home. The homeowners were relieved to know the musty smell was gone and the radon threat was eliminated. American Waterworks is happy to make another home safe. 

Clint M. of Taopi, MN had severe water leakage in his basement and decided to call American Waterworks after seeing our company vehicles around town. Our Design Specialist, Shane Nephew, went to his home for a FREE Estimate. After an in-depth inspection, Clint was comfortable with Shane's proposal so he set up an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Rene Hernandez, and his production crew began the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter of Clint's basement forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which serves as an underground drain. Next, our team installed our Basement to Beautiful Wall Panels around the wall perimeter, which serves as a thick, clean, and protective blanket for basement walls. Rene and his crew replaced the concrete, leaving the basement cleaner than how they found it. Clint had a great experience with Shane, Rene and his crew! 

Bill B. in Rudd, IA noticed that the north side of his basement was taking on water during heavy rains. Bill had tried numerous quick fixes, but nothing he tried was a permanent solution. He decided to call the waterproofing experts at American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Mac Cole, to his home to inspect his basement and provide him with the best long-term solution. Bill was pleased with Mac’s thorough plan, so he scheduled the installation of our waterproofing system.

Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his crew installed our WaterGuard drainage system. They removed a section of the concrete floor around the perimeter and created a drainage trench. The WaterGuard is then placed within the trench and filled back with rock to fill the gaps. This keeps the drainage system out of the “mud zone”, where drains can clog. Then, they installed a SuperSump sump pump system which is engineered to help keep the basement dry and healthy for extended periods of time, even in times of heavy water intrusion. The water now properly flows through the drainage system and is then discharged from the home through the sump pump. Bill is now enjoying a dry, healthier basement!
