Crawl Space Protected in Waubun, MN

Rolf, a homeowner in Waubun, MN, realized that his crawl space needed some attention. A number of comfort and energy problems are caused by inadequate or incorrect crawl space insulation. Specifically, with musty smells, mold, and moisture issues, Rolf decided he needed to call American Waterworks for a FREE Estimate. Our Design Specialist, Kole, headed to the property for an inspection. Following the inspection, Kole made his recommendations and answered all questions, and Rolf made an appointment to implement solutions.

 Our Foreman and his crew began the project by clearing debris and readying the spaces for installation. They then went to work installing our CleanSpace vapor barrier to address water Issues. CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof plastic barrier that gets installed right onto the problem walls, and works to catch water entering the space through cracks and holes in the wall. This also reduces the home's chances of being exposed to radon. The crew also used spray foam to seal and waterproof the homeowner's crawl space. Our spray foam is designed to keep the heat inside and prevent cool air from coming in. Rolf was grateful for the support and guidance of American Waterworks in protecting his home!

Radon Mitigation Installed in Waubun, MN

A homeowner in Waubun, MN, thought it was a good idea to get the radon in their home tested. Once the test was complete, the results showed a high amount of radon. The worried homeowner searched for a solution for this potentially dangerous issue. After thorough research, the homeowner discovered that American Waterworks installed radon mitigation systems. The homeowner went to our website and signed up for a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist, Kole, traveled to the property and introduced himself to the homeowners. Then, Kole inspected the home's exterior to determine where the radon mitigation system would be installed. Once the placement was determined, Kole drew up a solution and received approval from the homeowners. The plans were sent to the crew and they were set out to the home. After they arrived, the crew entered the crawl space to begin the installation process. The crew began by extracting the crawl space entrance and running pipes into the crawl space while extracting as well. Additionally, the crew installed a fan on the North side of the crawlspace. They successfully installed the radon mitigation system in the home. The homeowner was grateful to know they do not run the risk of high radon levels in their home. American Waterworks is pleased to provide another homeowner peace of mind.

Wet Basement Waterproofed in Wahpeton, ND

Chad A., a resident of Wahpeton, ND had water leaking into the basement of his home, causing him to worry about water moisture and damage to property. A local contractor recommended American Waterworks for the repairs, so Chad called our office and signed up for a FREE Estimate. Our Design Specialist, Ian, went to his home to carefully inspect the basement and come up with a solution. After a thorough walkthrough, Ian proposed our sump pump, CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier, and our WaterGuard Drainage System. Chad learned a lot about the products and felt confident in their warranties, so he went ahead with Ian's proposal and got an installation date scheduled. 

Our Foreman, Ryan, and his production team began the project by cutting out the concrete floor perimeter of the basement, forming a waterway trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System, which prevents water and mud clogs, collects leaking water from basement walls, and works hand in hand with the sump pump. Next, Ryan and his crew installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the entire wall perimeter, which prevents mold and humidity and gives the room a clean and bright appearance. Lastly, our crew installed our SuperSump Plus M53 sump pump, which keeps basements dry for long periods of time and works together with the WaterGuard to pump water out of the basement. To complete the installation, Ryan and his team covered the open gaps with river rock and pea gravel and applied new concrete over it. Chad was extremely pleased with the work that was done and had a pleasant experience from start to finish!
