Before & After Photos

A local church in Emerado, ND, was completing annual inspections when they discovered their foundation was struggling. Worried this could cause major, long-term damage, the homeowner searched for professional assistance. During their search, the homeowner came across the best foundation repair company in North Dakota, American Waterworks. The homeowner took a closer look at the projects we have serviced and knew we were the company for their job. After signing up for their FREE estimate, we sent one of our Design Specialists, Ian, to complete the project. Ian arrived at the church and began his detailed inspection. Once he completed the inspection, Ian found several issues regarding the foundation and crawl space. Ian recommended permanently stabilizing the foundation and fully encapsulating the crawl space. Knowing these fixes were necessary, the church agreed with Ians' suggestions. Once they were approved by the office, the plans were sent to our Foreman, Kingsley, and his crew. After they received the stamp of approval, the crew traveled to the home and began the project. Kingsley and his crew started by cleaning out all the debris from the crawl space. Once the debris was cleared, the crew installed 36 SmartJacks throughout the crawl space. Next, the crew put seven GeoLock Wall Anchors into place. The crew shifted their focus to encapsulating the crawl space. First, the crew began by installing Draintile around the perimeter and interior foundation. Then, the crew installed the TripleSafe Sump Pump in the western corner of the crawl space. Next, the crew placed Drainage Matting on the floor and installed CleanSpace over top. Additionally, CleanSpace was installed on several columns and obstructions throughout the crawl space. Once the CleanSpace was installed, the crew installed Foamax on the perimeter walls and over the openings in the foundation. The crew successfully installed all the products throughout the crawl space, so they cleaned up their materials and left the home. The church was relieved to know their foundation was permanently stabilized and the crawl space was properly encapsulated. American Waterworks is happy to provide its customers peace of mind. 

Water seepage through crawl space floors and walls is a problem that many homes encounter. If it is left untouched by the homeowner, the crawl space can be damaged by termites, mold, and wood rot. However, problems like these can be prevented by getting an effective encapsulation and waterproofing system installed. 

Homeowners in Marion, ND were seeing this similar issue in their crawl space. They did some research online and came across our website on Google, and were impressed with the services that we provide. They decided to give our office staff a call and schedule their FREE, no-obligation estimate with our Design Specialist. Our Design Specialist went to the homeowner's house, carefully inspected their crawl space, and determined a solution that would work for them and their needs. The homeowners were confident in our proposal of our Aprilaire Dehumidifier, Foamax Wall Panels, and our CleanSpace Encapsulation System, so they signed the contract and followed through with the project. 

Our Foreman and his production team began the project by introducing themselves to the homeowners and ensuring all of their questions were answered. After a thorough introduction, our team got to work and began the installation by installing our Foamax Wall Panels around the crawl space wall perimeter. Our Foamax is a special foam insulation barrier that makes the crawl space warmer, saves money on energy costs, and prevents water from seeping through the walls. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Encapsulation Vapor Barrier to seal the entire crawl space, which is used to transform the crawl space into a clean, dry, and energy-efficient part of the home. The last system our team installed was our Aprilaire with its hanging kit. Our Aprilaire Dehumidifier provides healthy air and reduces viruses and contaminants. The homeowners were thrilled with the work and were beautified by the transformation!

A homeowner in Rogers, ND, became aware of several issues that began to arise in their basement and foundation. Knowing they had a massive job on their hands, the homeowner searched for a company that could handle it all. After seeing the extensive work we do, the homeowners felt American Waterworks was the best choice for them. The homeowners signed up for their FREE estimate and we sent our Design Specialist, Richie, to perform an extensive inspection of the entire basement and surrounding foundation. After completing his inspection, Richie determined the home needed many repairs. Richie explained that the home foundations needed to be stabilized, the concrete patio lifted and leveled, the basement waterproofed, and new basement windows installed. Although the list of repairs was overwhelming, the homeowners decided to go forward with Richie's recommendations. 

Before the crew's arrival, they were asked to remove all personal items and the front deck and move their HVAC unit. First, the crew lifted and leveled the concrete with the Polylevel. The crew started by permanently stabilizing the foundation and its walls with 13 Geo-Lock Anchors and 39 Push Piers. Next, the crew removed the old basement windows and replaced them with three Rockwell Egress Windows. Moving along, the crew waterproofed the basement by installing the WaterGuard, a feed line, and the SuperSump Plus. After completing all the installations, the crew cleaned up the job site and went on their way. The homeowners were pleased to save their family home and that it is safe for years to come. 

A homeowner in Larimore, ND, noticed the water was leaking near the stairs and where the walls meet. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner knew they needed professional assistance. After doing a quick online search, the homeowner came across our website. The homeowner looked closer at our company and knew we were the best fit for them. Once they saw we offer FREE estimates, the homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their appointment. The details were finalized and one of our Design Specialists, Kole, was sent to perform the inspection. Kole arrived at the home and the homeowner directed him to the problem area. After Kole took a closer look, he noticed the water was coming from the corner of the basement. Kole told the homeowner where the water was coming from and suggested the corner be fully waterproofed. After some deliberation, the homeowner agreed with Kole's suggestion, and production preparations began. The plans were sent to the office and then to our Foreman, Franklin, and his crew. Franklin and his crew drove to the home to begin the waterproofing project. Once they arrived, they started by digging and placing the WaterGuard, our below-floor drain system. Once the WaterGuard was secured into place, the crew installed CleanSpace on the basement walls. Next, the crew dug and installed the new SuperSump+. The crew completed the installation and then cleaned up their materials. The homeowner was relieved to know their basement was properly waterproofed. American Waterworks is happy to provide another homeowner peace of mind.
