Steven T. of Garfield, MN had uneven floors throughout his crawl space, causing him to worry about the stability and safety of his home. He found American Waterworks after doing some research and liked what he saw, so he scheduled a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist went to Steven's home, carefully inspected the uneven floors, and determined the proposal of our Crawl Space Support SmartJack Posts. Steven was confident in the product and its features, so he went ahead with the project.
Our Foreman and his production team installed seven of our SmartJacks, which are made to stabilize and straighten sloping or springy floors. They can support loads of more than 60,000 pounds and they are galvanized (resistance to corrosion). Steven was happy with the work that was completed and had a great experience from start to finish.

A customer from Garfield, MN, got in contact with us because she found water pooling in a corner of her basement. She had plans to renovate the space into a living space and wanted to know her options moving forward. Our Design Specialist made a few suggestions. First, he stated the property needed a Sump Pump to adequately drain water our CleanSpace and WaterGuard systems are able to catch. All of our sump systems have several beneficial features for the customer, beginning with a WaterWatch alarm that notifies the homeowners of the overflowing of the sump basket and airtight sump lids that keep odor and humidity out while simultaneously protecting the interior of the pump. Our Foreman, Cameron, installed the new system and now the homeowner is able to transform her space into the basement of her dreams!
A homeowner in Battle Lake, MN had water leaking from their walls, causing them to worry about water damage and flooding hazards. When it comes to block foundation walls, the open spaces in each block may fill with water, which then leaks through the walls. By eliminating that, our crew broke out the bottom of the wall perimeter by a few inches, then drilled a weep hole into each block. Next, our team installed our DryTrak Drain Pipe System, which our crew did not have to use a jackhammer for. In this case, our team just applied it over the floor perimeter., which prevented extra labor and exposure to dust. The water then was able to pour through the holes and directly into the drain pipe.
The homeowner was happy with the repairs and was grateful we were able to help them with their basement waterproofing needs!
A homeowner in Britt, IA, was inspecting their basement following a heavy rainstorm. To their surprise, the homeowner discovered several wet spots throughout their basement. Worried about the long-term damage, the homeowner began looking into professional waterproofing companies near Britt, IA. The homeowner had work previously completed by us, so they gave us a call to check out the basement. The homeowner was connected to our Service Department, and then they sent one of our Service Technicians, Darin, to the home to take a closer look. After Darin arrived, he began his detailed inspection of the basement. During his inspection, Darin discovered the basement suffered from water intrusion and needed repair. Darin was able to come up with a proposal that would solve all the issues in the basement. After presenting the plan, the homeowner knew this was their best plan of action. Next, Darin passed the plans along to our Logistics team to be approved. Once the plans were approved, the proposal was sent to our Formean, Kevin, and his crew. Kevin and his team traveled to the home and began the waterproofing installation. First, Kevin and his crew began by installing WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew took out the old sump pump and replaced it with the TripleSafe Sump Pump. Then, the crew installed a feedline to connect the WaterGuard to the TripleSafe Sump Pump. Once all the products were installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the crew's work. American Waterworks is happy to assist our homeowners after our initial installation.
A homeowner in Alexandria, MN had water leaking into their basement, causing them to worry about water moisture, mold build-up, and damage to property. They called our office line and scheduled a FREE estimate with one of our Design Specialists. Our Design Specialist went to their home, carefully inspected their basement, and drew out a few possible solutions that would fit their needs and budget. The homeowner was confident in our products and their warranties, so they went ahead with the project and scheduled a date for the installation.
Our Foreman and their production team began the project by breaking out the concrete diagonally down the middle of the basement, forming a feed line. At the end of the feed line in the corner of the basement, our team installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which provides three layers of water protection, solves all three water problems in one unit, and comes with a battery back-up in case of power outage or failure. To complete the installation, our team filled the open gaps with pea gravel and applied new concrete over them, ensuring the basement was much neater than when they found it. The homeowner was satisfied with our work, and their peace of mind is now restored!
