A homeowner in Hutchinson, MN, noticed that his floors had begun sagging and was unsure of the reason. He did some quick research and learned that having a damaged crawl space is often one of the reasons, because when moisture builds up in the floor joists. After learning this information, the homeowner began searching for services in the area and found our website. The homeowner then contacted us to schedule his FREE estimate. In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Eric H., arrived at the home to provide a thorough inspection of the crawl space, answer any questions, and provide the best solution to the homeowner. Eric explained to the homeowner that one of the common causes of crawl space damage is having dirt floors. Because your home is not separated from the earth, water can leak through the crawl space floors and create high moisture issues. To fix this issue, Eric recommended SmartDrain, a plumbing leak system that drains water away to a dry well, CleanSpace,  a vapor wall barrier, Drainage Matting, an extremely durable matting that creates a drainage space and thermal break between CleanSpace and the ground, Foamax, an insulation foam that helps control humidity levels, and SmartJack, that raises the floor back to where it originally was. After reviewing the proposal, the homeowner happily agreed and scheduled the installation date.  In about a month, our Foreman, Jesus C., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They installed 1 SmartDrain, 504 sqft of CleanSpace, 418 sqft of Drainage Matting, 210 sqft of Foamax, and 1 SmartJack. After they were done, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home. Now, our customer can have peace of mind with his crawl space properly insulated! Have you noticed sagging floors in your home? Then you might need to have your crawl space inspected!

Lynda U. from Truman, MN contacted American Waterworks after doing some research online. The floors in her home were sagging and the crawl space was in need of some supports. She was happy to learn that American Waterworks has 30 years of experience and was glad to meet with Ryan Powell, one of our Design Specialists. Ryan evaluated the situation and proposed our SmartJack Support System and supplemental beams to stabilize and level the sagging beams.   Our Foreman, Jesus Covarrubias, and his production crew were successfully able to strengthen and stabilize the crawl space with the installation of 14 SmartJacks. The support system can be installed year-round, provides supplemental support, and can often lift failing floor joists or beams, restoring them to their original position. It is made with strong, corrosion-resistant, galvanized steel and remains adjustable for years, should it need future adjustment. Lynda was impressed with the installation process, and her peace of mind has been restored!
