American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Lynn P. of Rochester, MN had uneven and cracked concrete throughout her driveway, making her think about the value of her home. She did some research on our website and came across our concrete repair products. She called our office to set up a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Kevin Beseman. Kevin inspected the concrete and came up with a solution. Lynn got all of her questions answered, so she followed through with the project. 

Our Foreman, James Jacques, started to concrete work by injecting our PolyLevel underneath the concrete to raise and stabilize the surface. Our PolyLevel is a unique, dense foam that adjusts and cures concrete within minutes, and prevents any further soil destruction. Next, James applied our NexusPro over each crack. Our NexusPro is a protective sealant that provides long-term flexibility, prevents any further bubbling or cracking, and stands up to harsh weather conditions. Lynn was happy with the project and loves the new view from across the street! 

Ginger L. of Rochester, MN had cracks in their foundation wall, and they wanted to get them fixed before it got any worse. They found American Waterworks on the web, so they requested a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Mac. Mac went to Ginger's home, carefully inspected their wall, and proposed our wall anchor system. Ginger got all of their questions answered, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Raul A, and his crew installed nine of our wall anchors and their hide-a-way covers. Our covers provide a nice, finishing touch to the installation and it still allows for periodic tightening of the system. This system is made to stabilize and straighten cracked and bowing foundation walls. Since they are such a versatile system, they are able to solve several foundation problems. Ginger was happy with the work and had a great experience with our team! 

A customer contacted us in regards to bunnies and other pests entering their crawl space through previously sealed holes and wanted to know what could be done to fix the issue. Our Design Specialist, Dustin Loftus, went out to the property to assess the situation and recommended the homeowners remove the stone and debris in the crawl space, remove old spray foam in the stone walls and re-grout the holes, add CleanSpace encapsulation to keep warm air in, and add SmartJacks to add further stabilization the home.

Our Foreman, Kiko, installed the recommended fix on the properties and now the homeowners have peace of mind knowing that unwanted pests and loss of heat through the crawl space are all worries of the past.

 A homeowner in Rochester, MN, was sick and tired of having to gun it over a piece of uneven concrete in front of his garage. He didn't want the problem to get any worse, so he decided to get in touch with a company that could help him restore his concrete. After seeing a few American Waterworks yard signs throughout town, he decided to give us a call, set up his FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Nate B, headed out to the home to complete his inspection. 

Once he completed his walkthrough, Nate met with the homeowners and made his recommendations. He began by stating that the issue, while obnoxious, is fairly common, and the fix is fairly simple. He stated our team would use our PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam that expands when injected below the problem concrete slabs, filling voids left by soil erosion. This solution slowly lifts the concrete back into place. Nate finished by saying that our team finished the project by installing our NexusPro, a silicone-based sealant that gets applied to all joints and cracks in the concrete, keeping any unwanted moisture from getting under the slab. The homeowner agreed and work was scheduled to begin a few weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Sam, and his team completed the lift with no problems. Due to weather concerns, the NexusPro was not able to be installed on the original project day. A few weeks later, another one of our concrete Foremen, Troy, and his team completed the joint sealing. Now our customer is thrilled with his updated concrete!

An American Waterworks Service Technician, Glenn T, was performing an annual maintenance appointment on a Rochester, MN, home. The homeowner expressed to Glenn that she had concerns about the humidity in her crawl space. Glenn went to take a look at the space and measured the humidity of the space at 70%, the ideal conditions for mold and mildew growth, along with an increase in indoor airborne allergens, all of which could lead to severe health side effects. After Glenn was done with his inspection, he met with the homeowner to deliver her findings. 

Glenn explained why such a high humidity level should be dealt with, and elaborated on his recommendations. Glenn wanted to use several of our products to bring the humidity level down. First, Glenn recommended our CleanSpace and drainage matting. CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof tarp that gets applied directly to the walls of the crawl space and works to direct water entering through holes or cracks in the wall. The raised dimples on our CleanSpace® Drainage Matting gives the water flooding into your crawl space a channel underneath your crawl space liner. This directs the water flooding the crawl space to the SmartPipe crawl space drain, Tony's third product recommendation. The SmartPipe's custom design includes holes on the top and front to accept water from the soil and surface of your crawl space. A special wall flange collects water from the crawl space walls and the footing/wall joint. Finally, Tony wanted to install our AprilAire dehumidifier. Even a basement with an effective waterproofing system can still develop moisture and mold problems and may feel damp. Concrete walls and floors continually absorb moisture from the soil and release it into the air in your basement, and store-bought dehumidifiers simply aren't strong enough to solve the problem. Adding an Aprilaire dehumidifier creates healthy air and can reduce the number of viable viruses in the air to less than 1% in two days' time when set to 50% RH. The homeowner agreed and work was scheduled for a few weeks later.

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Jesus C, and his team ended up installing 496 ft of CleanSpace, 414 sqft of Drainage Matting, 1 AprilAire, and 1 SmartPipe. Now our customer can rest easy knowing her humid crawl space is healthy once more!
