Before & After Photos

Derek and Hailey of Dawson, MN had inward bowing walls and water leaking into their basement. They did some research on local contractors and came across American Waterworks. They saw that we provide FREE, no-obligation estimates, so they called our office line and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Ryan Powell. Ryan went to their home, carefully inspected their bowing walls and water leaks, and determined a solution that would solve their problem. Derek and Hailey were confident in Ryan's proposal of our basement waterproofing and foundation repair products, so they signed the proposal and scheduled a date for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Jose Castillo, and his production crew started the process by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our crew installed our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain, which is specifically designed to prevent water clogs and collect water leakage from basement walls. Next, our crew installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the entire basement wall perimeter. The purpose of this is to prevent mold and humidity, save money on energy costs, and give the basement a bright appearance. Lastly, Jose and his team installed our PowerBraces around the wall perimeter over the CleanSpace. Our PowerBraces are designed to repair foundation walls over time and fix the inward bow. To complete the project, our crew covered the open gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over them, ensuring the space was neat and clean.

Ron, from Eagle Bend, MN, was looking for some solutions for his late father's cabin space. The basement was experiencing water intrusion, and so he and his brother decided to call American Waterworks for a FREE estimate. Shortly after the appointment was scheduled, our Design Specialist, Kole, headed out to the property. 

Following a thorough inspection, Kole gave his recommendations to Ron, suggesting that they invest in our WaterGuard system. This particular system is typically used in basements and is the premier choice for basement waterproofing as it is installed below the floor, but rests atop the foundation, keeping it out of the "mud zone", making it harder to clog. 

Ron agreed, and our crew got to work.

First, Ou Foreman, Arturo, and his crew began implementing our WaterGuard System, which is a patented below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage on top of the foundation footing. It is our most commonly used drain system because of its resistance to water clogs, its easy-to-access service ports, and its ability to collect leaking water from basement walls. The team then covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. 

The drainage system now properly guides water to the Super Sump Plus pump and from there, the sump pump pushes the water through the discharge line and expels it from the home. 

Finally, the team proceeded to install the CleanSpace wall System around the perimeter of the basement. Our CleanSpace Wall System is attached to the walls with plastic fasteners so it never falls.

After all was said and done, Ron was very glad he and his brother made the decision to call American Waterworks and had their peace of mind restored.

Jeremy K. of Starbuck, MN had water leaking into his basement, causing him to worry about water moisture and damage to his personal property. He got in contact with our office staff at American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Shane Nephew. Shane went to his home, inspected his problems, and drew up a well-designed solution. Jeremy was confident in Shane's proposal of our WaterGuard Drainage System, so he signed the contract and scheduled a date for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Tremaine Jackson, and his team began the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a waterway trench. In the trench, our crew installed our WaterGuard Drainage System, which is an underground drain that prevents water and mud clogs, collects water seepage from basement walls, and works efficiently with the sump pump. To complete the work, Tremaine and his team filled the open gaps with rock and pea gravel and applied new concrete over it. Jeremy was ecstatic with the outcome of the project and had a positive experience!
