Leaky Basement Gets a Solution in New Brighton, MN
A New Brighton, MN, homeowner was facing an issue with his basement. Whenever his area got rain, it always seemed to wind up in his basement, leaving small puddles. The homeowner knew that if he continued to let the problem go unchecked, he could run the risk of doing permanent damage to his space. He began to look for interior waterproofing companies in MN and quickly found us. He scheduled his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Brad W, was headed out to the home.
Once Brad completed his inspection of the basement, he met with the homeowner to deliver his recommendations. Brad explained that he wanted to use three of our products to address the intrusion. First, Brad wanted to use our CleanSpace vapor barrier. CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof tarp-like material that gets adhered directly to the basement walls. It works to catch water entering through holes or cracks in the wall, directing it downward and into a perimeter system. Because the basement lacked a means of drainage, Brad recommended our WaterGuard system. This unique below-floor drain gets installed beneath the cement floor but atop the footing of the foundation, keeping it out of the 'mud zone' where similar drains tend to clog. This drain works to collect water entering from the CleanSpace, as well as any water coming up through holes in the foundation, giving the excess water a channel to flow freely to a disposal site such as a sump pump or discharge line. Brad noted that the basement was unequipped with a sump pump, so he recommended our SuperSump plus sump pump, an effective and economical solution for ridding your basement of water. The homeowner loved the sound of complimenting products and signed on the spot.
The day of the installation eventually rolled around. Our Foreman, Kiko P, and his team were able to flawlessly install 60ft of both WaterGuard and CleanSpace and 1 SuperSump plus sump pump. Now our customer can rest easy knowing that his water intrusion issues were a thing of the past!

Sump Pump Installation in Scandia, MN
Annetta A. of Scandia, MN wanted to have a sump pump that came with a battery backup. She found American Waterworks so she got in contact with our office staff to gather some information about our sump pump systems. Annetta had a great conversation, so she scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Shane. Shane proposed a bid and answered all of Annetta's questions.

Water Seeping into Basement in Shafer, MN
Craig S. in Shafer, MN had water seeping into his basement and his old sump pump was not able to keep up with the amount of water coming in. While looking for a local waterproofing company, he came across American Waterworks’ website and decided to contact us for a FREE estimate.
We sent one of our Design Specialists, Chad Johnson, to his home to inspect his basement and to develop a solution for him. Chad designed a thorough waterproofing plan to ensure that Craig’s basement would remain a permanently dry space after the installation. Craig liked to proposal that Chad put together, so he scheduled the installation.
Our production team installed a full perimeter of our WaterGuard drainage system on the basement floor. They also installed a SuperSump sump pump and our CleanSpace wall system around the entire basement. The WaterGuard properly guides water to the sump pump, which then pumps the water through the discharge line to the outside of the home. The CleanSpace wall system is a vapor barrier that protects the basement from any moisture seeping in and the potential of mold growth. The combination of these waterproofing products has made Craig’s basement a dry, clean and brighter space. Our waterproofing system is backed by a lifetime warranty, so Craig is confident that he chose the right waterproofing solution to protect his basement for the long-term.

Sump Pump Replacement Saves Basement in Shafer, MN
A Shafer, MN, homeowner was looking to replace his old sump pump. The system hadn't been able to keep up with the latest round of rain the area had seen, so the homeowner decided to enlist the help of a sump pump specialist. He quickly found American Waterworks and signed up for his FREE estimate. Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Dustin A, headed out to the home.
After Dustin completed his inspection, he informed the homeowner that he would recommend replacing the sump pump with our TripleSafe sump pump, the most reliable sump pump in our lineup. He elaborated, saying that the TripleSafe provides three levels of protection for your basement and peace of mind. In times of normal functioning, the TripleSafe has a powerful Zoeller 1/3 horsepower sump pump set at the lowest level. For times of heavy water, or in case of primary pump failure, a second, more powerful Zoeller 1/2 horsepower pump set a bit higher in the liner will take over. The homeowner was thrilled with Dustin's recommendation and signed on the spot.
Several weeks later, our Foreman, Dakota M, and his team successfully replaced the sump pumps. Now, our customer can enjoy the rainfall knowing that his basement has the best line of defense against water intrusion!
