Before & After Photos

Ray G. of Cottonwood, MN had water leaking throughout his crawl space causing mold build-up and moisture problems. After doing some research on the American Waterworks website, Ray set up a FREE Estimate for our Design Specialist, Jeremy Radtke, to come to his home and inspect the problem. After a thorough inspection, Ray was comfortable with Jeremy's design, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Nate Wroblewski, and his production crew installed 510 feet of our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, which is made to prevent mold and humidity, and covers all voids and dents. It also provides the space with a clean and neat appearance. Ray had a great experience from start to finish!

A homeowner in Crary, ND, noticed their crawl space was damaged and suffering. To prevent this issue from worsening, the homeowner knew they needed to find an expert to provide them with a solution. One of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Jackson, and traveled to the home to begin the thorough inspection of the crawl space. During the inspection, Jackson confirmed the crawl space was suffering from poor encapsulation and was causing the mustiness. To stop the odor from growing, Jackson recommended fully encapsulating the crawl space. Knowing this was the best plan of action, the homeowner agreed and worked with Jackson to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Roel, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the project. First, Roel and his crew started by clearing out the crawl space. Once the crawl space was cleared, the crew shifted to laying Drainage Matting on the crawl space floor. Once the Drainage Matting was laid, the crew shifted to attaching CleanSpace to the floors and walls. After the CleanSpace was attached, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew. If you notice your home is experiencing a similar issue, sign up for your FREE estimate today! 

Sue, from Mapleton, ND, was growing more concerned over the state of her wet crawl space. If a a damp crawl space begins to rot, grow mold, or experience structural problems, issues can extend to all parts of the home. Sue wanted to understand why it was happening, make sure that the issue was corrected, and restore peace of mind moving forward. After deciding on our company, we set her up with a FREE inspection. A few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Ian, headed out to the property. Once he completed his walkthrough, he made recommendations as to how American Waterworks could help. 

First, Ian recommended our drainage matting; a dimpled matting that gets installed onto the floor of the crawl space, giving any excess water a route to flow through the space and be disposed of at an external site such as a drain or a sump system. Ian's second recommendation was our CleanSpace vapor barrier, a 100% waterproof tarp that works to trap any excess moisture in the space, redirecting it to the appropriate disposal site. Our customer agreed with the recommendations and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Jeremiah, and his team ended up installing 1938 sqft of the CleanSpace and a 4' tall Half Wall System in the crawl space. They also worked on installing two of our SmartDrains throughout the crawl space. Our SmartDrains are made specifically to track down water and keep it from invading the crawl space. Sue was very grateful for our team's work to restore her peace of mind so she can enjoy her home without worrying about water intrusion! 

Sandi W. of Belview, MN had water leaking through the cracks of her basement walls, causing her to worry about the value of her home. She went to the Redwood Falls Home Show to find a contractor who could help her. She found American Waterworks and talked to our Design Specialist, Shane Nephew, about her water problems, so he set her up with a FREE Estimate. Shane went to her home to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. After an in-depth and clear examination, Sandi got all her questions answered so she followed through with the project. 

Our Foreman, Edgar Miranda, and his production crew began the project by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter and forming a trench. In the trench, our crew installed 147 feet of our WaterGuard System, which is designed to collect water seepage from basement walls and serve as an underground drain. Next, our team applied our CleanSpace Wall System, which is a plastic vapor barrier made to prevent mold and humidity build-up and protect the basement from water exposure. To complete the project, Edgar and his team covered the open WaterGuard gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Sandi's peace of mind was restored and was grateful she found us at her local home show! 

A homeowner in Fargo, ND, noticed a musty smell around their home. Unsure of the source, the homeowner began their hunt for the source of the odor. After looking around, the homeowner discovered the scent was coming from the crawl space. Worried this could be a sign of major issues, the homeowner knew they needed an expert opinion. The homeowner asked a local Facebook group for any recommendations and several members recommended working with us, American Waterworks. The homeowner decided to check out our services and was impressed with our work. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of Ian, one of our Design Specialists. Ian made his way to the home and began the thorough inspection of the crawl space. During his inspection, Ian confirmed the crawl space was the source of the odor. To stop the odor, Ian recommended fully encapsulating the crawl space. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner decided to go ahead with these suggestions. Next, Ian sent the proposal to our Logistics team to build and schedule the plan. As soon as the plans were approved, it was directed to our Foreman, Franklin, and his crew to begin. Franklin and his crew received the proposal and traveled to the home to begin the project. Once they arrived, Franklin and his crew began by clearing the crawl space. Once the crawl space was cleared, the crew went ahead and laid the Drainage Matting on the basement floor. Next, the crew installed CleanSpace on the walls and floors of the crawl space. Finally, the crew attached Foamax to ensure the crawl space stays insulated. Franklin and his crew completed the encapsulation, so they cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is delighted to assist its customers in encapsulating their crawl spaces.
