Sump System Saves Basement in Faribault, MN

A homeowner from Faribault, MN, got in touch with us when she noticed that she was entering her space through the joints where the floor and walls met. She was worried that if she left the issue unchecked, it would drag down the value of her home when she resold it in the future. Deciding to address the problem, she began to look into MN basement waterproofing. After finding us through the recommendation of friends and family, she signed up for her FREE estimate. 

Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Brian R, was headed out to the home. When Brian arrived, he completed his thorough inspection and then met with the homeowner to discuss his recommendations. First, Brian recommended our WaterGuard. This French drain gets installed below the basement floor, atop the footing of the foundation, working to provide the unwanted water entering the space a channel to flow freely to a disposal site. While Brian was in the basement, he noticed that the basement lacked a sump system, so he recommended our TripleSafe sump pump. This sump pump is the most reliable sump in our lineup, boasting three levels of protection for your basement and your peace of mind. The homeowner was thrilled with Brian's recommendation and signed up for the project on the spot. 

A month or so late, our Foreman, Jose C, and his team installed 101 ft of WaterGuard and 1 TripleSafe in the basement of the space. Now, our customer can enjoy all of the perks of a dry and healthy space!

Following a series of heavy thunderstorms, a homeowner in Faribault, MN, discovered their basement was suffering significantly. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner began searching for "interior basement drain system installation near me." One of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate.

A few days later, Brian promptly arrived at the home and began the thorough inspection of the basement. During the inspection, Brian confirmed that several areas were suffering from water intrusion. To prevent the water intrusion from worsening, Brian recommended installing several waterproofing products throughout the basement.

First, Raul and his crew started by installing WaterGuard around the basement perimeter. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew took out the old sump pump and replaced it with the TripleSafe sump pump. Finally, the crew attached CleanSpace to the unfinished basement walls. Finally, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the excellent work completed by the crew.

Leaking Basement Fix in Shakopee, MN

Matt T. of Shakopee, MN had water leaking through the corner of his unfinished basement wall during heavy rainstorms and he wanted to get it looked at it before it got any worse. He knew of an employee at American Waterworks, so he scheduled a free estimate with our Design Specialist, Tim Schneider. Tim went to his home, carefully inspected his problems, and drew out a solution that worked for him and his budget. He was confident in Tim's proposal and presentation, so he followed through with the project. 

Our Foreman, Lane Schlobohm, and his production team started the work by installing our CleanSpace Half Wall System Vapor Barrier around the basement wall perimeter, which is made to prevent mold and mildew, and it acts as an extra wall protectant. Next, our team installed our DryTrak Drain Pipe System, which is permanently installed above the floor. Our crew drilled a weep hole through each foundation block to enable the water to pour through the holes and into the drain pipe. The installation only took one day and Matt was happy with the work that was completed!
