Before & After Photos

A customer from Farmington, MN got in contact with us when they began to notice that their downstairs block window well was beginning to show signs of failing. They fear that if they left the issue alone, they would run the risk of severely compromising the structural integrity of the retaining wall, which would cause the basement to be inescapable in case of emergency. When they called in, we set them up with our FREE estimate, entitling them to a free, no-obligation estimate by one of our Design Specialists. Once the appointment was set, one of our Design Specialists, Josh, headed out to the property to assess the damage. Once he completed his walkthrough, he was able to make his recommendations. He told the homeowner that her best bet would be to let our crews install a RockWell window well. Josh explained that this well offers an attractive alternative to ugly window wells while providing safe, code-compliant basement egress. Our customer agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Gabriel, and his crew began the process by excavating around the already in-place window. Next, they installed the RockWell and secured it in place. Finally, they added a cover to keep leaves and debris out while allowing natural sunlight into the space. Once the job was done our customer was thrilled to know they could go back to using their basement without worries of it not being up to code! 

Ms. Thompson contacted to address concerns that her interior foundation was beginning to crumble and water would pour through the cracks in the basement walls when it rained. Jeremy was able to point out that her foundation was bowing significantly and without the proper stabilization, her foundation walls were eventually going to collapse. Jeremy crafted a solution with our GEOLOCK wall anchor and WaterGuard basement waterproofing systems.  Combined, these two patented solutions will prevent any further water damage and permanently stabilize and straighten the foundation walls of her Waseca, MN home. 

The Stewarts upgraded their basement to include a RockWell egress window. They can now enjoy a more attractive window alternative that is code-compliant and backed by a 5 year warranty.

Judy F. in Waseca, MN contacted American Waterworks after being referred to us by a previous satisfied customer. She wanted to finish the bedroom in the basement, but the current sump pump was unable to keep up after heavy rains. Water was pooling on the floor, and she needed a permanent solution. Our Design Specialist, Eric Hazelton, met with Judy and proposed our WaterGuard drainage system and provided her with our sump pump options. 

Our Foreman, Cole Brinkman, and his production crew installed our WaterGuard drainage system, our SuperSump sump pump, and our CleanSpace vapor barrier along the walls. The combination of these products ensures that any water seepage will be guided through the WaterGuard, to the sump pump, and from there will be discharged from the home. 

Tammy F. in Bricelyn, MN had an old sump pump in her basement that was failing and not able to keep up with typical rainfall. It was starting to cause damage to her property, so she decided it was time to have a professional look at it. She contacted American Waterworks for a FREE estimate, and we sent one of our Design Specialists to provide a solution. Tammy approved of the plan and moved forward with an installation date. 

Our production crew got to work and installed our WaterGuard drainage system along the perimeter of the basement. The WaterGuard drains water to the newly installed SuperSump sump pump, and it is then expelled from the home through the discharge line. Tammy now has peace of mind knwoing that water in her basement is no longer a concern.
