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.  

Sump Pump Upgrade in Saint Paul, MN

Sam from Saint Paul, Mn was in hopes of renewing his basement systems to help provide his home with more security against water that could potentially harm the foundation of his home. The first step he took to protect his home was to upgrade his sump pump and insert a new drainage system. Sam immediately contacted the Appointment Center here at American Waterworks and scheduled his Free Estimate which entitled him to a full home inspection. Once scheduled, our Design Specialist then attended his home and began a thorough inspection of the property. Our Design Specialist then proposed to Sam that the best solution is to invest in our TripleSafe Sump Pump system along with our Waterguard Drainage system. Sam was comfortable with the proposal and went forward with the project by setting a date of installation. 

Once the date of installation arrived, our Foreman along with his Production team  attended to the property and began to jackhammer the concrete along the perimeter of the basement to insert the WaterGuard Drainage System. Our WaterGuard is a patented below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage on top of the foundation footing. This type of WaterGuard is most commonly used due to the resistance against water clogs and easy access ports to properly flush out the mud from the system. Once inserted the Production team then proceeded to remove the old sump pump system and replace it with a TripleSafe Sump Pump. The TripleSafe Sump Pump has three levels of protection which helps solve all three water problems. Once the job was done the team then places a fresh layer of concrete over the project to provide a finishing look and secure the system to stay in place. 

Sam was satisfied with the project and had a great experience with the Production crew!

WaterGuard System Installed in Maplewood, MN

A homeowner in Maplewood, MN was worried about his basement when he went downstairs to the space and found some water damage to the floors in the utility room. He figured this wasn't a good sign and was determined to make a change sooner than later to prevent future issues from happening again. As he lived near the cities and knew there would be more luck with finding a service with that city name, so he looked up "waterproofing Minneapolis." The American Waterworks company website showed up and he quickly became interested in the products and services that we offered. He signed up for one of our FREE estimates and was later met by one of our Design Specialists, Darin Stenglein. Darin inspected the basement space and informed the homeowner that our WaterGuard basement drainage system and CleanSpace wall vapor barrier would be the perfect solution for his basement. The homeowner agreed to the installations and looked forward to the project moving forward. Our Foreman, Kiko Pena, and his crew went to the site and carefully installed both products. The homeowner was happy with the results and thanked our crew for their hard work.

Settled Sidewalk Lifted in Saint Paul, MN

Joanne S. of Saint Paul, MN had a settled sidewalk leading to her front porch. One of her peers referred American Waterworks and our concrete services. Our Design Specialist, Ben Allrich, proposed the solution of our PolyLevel, which is a special foam that fills the voids underneath the concrete caused by soil erosion and it stabilizes the concrete surface. Joanne was confident in the product, so she went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Dylon Mish, and his crew member injected 32 pounds of our PolyLevel to lift the sidewalk. Joanne was able to walk on her concrete within 15 minutes after project completion and she was amazed by how quickly the project took!
