Sinking Driveway Gets a Lift in Rochester, MN

A homeowner in Rochester, MN, got in contact with us when he began to notice that his driveway was slowly separating from his home over time. Not wanting the problems to worsen, he decided to set up his FREE estimate and a few weeks later our Design Specialist, Gary, headed out to the property to see what could be done. 

Once Gary finished his inspection he informed the homeowner that we could fix the situation using our PolyLevel lifting and leveling solution. He went on to say that our PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that expands when its inserted under sinking concrete slabs, slowly lifting them back to the desired position. He then said the team would finish the job by sealing up all cracks and joints with our NexusPro to ensure that no elements find their way underneath the slab. The homeowners agreed and work began a few weeks later. 

Our Foreman, Patrick, and his team made quick work of the installation and when the project was completed our customer was thrilled to know he no longer had to worry about a sinking driveway!

Sinking Concrete Slab Gets Fixed in Rochester, MN

A homeowner from Rochester, MN, had been watching her concrete patio for a few years. She had noticed that the slab had begun sinking, and the sinking had become so bad she was seeing a trip hazard forming. She didn't want anyone to take an unnecessary tumble, so she reached out to American Waterworks to see what could be done. We set her up with our FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Jesse, headed out to the home. 

Once Jesse concluded his inspection, he met with the homeowner and informed her that we could help with the issue by using our PolyLevel lifting and leveling method. PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that expands when injected beneath sinking concrete, filling voids left by soil erosion and slowly lifting the concrete back into place. He went on to say that we protect our lift by installing our NexusPro, a silicone-based sealant that gets applied to cracks and joints in the concrete to ensure nothing can permeate the slab, compromising the soil below. The homeowner agreed and a few weeks later the work began. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Troy, and his team were able to lift the concrete, successfully eliminating the pesky trip hazard, and restoring safety. Now our customer can feel confident in the ground beneath her feet!

Sunken Concrete Lifted in Rochester, MN

A homeowner from Rochester, MN, had noticed a few areas of his concrete walkway and driveway were sinking, creating large trip hazards. He didn't want to wait for the problem to worsen, so he began to look for Rochester concrete repair. When she found our website, she was impressed with our concrete repair before and after images. She scheduled her FREE estimate, and several weeks later, Adam V, one of our Design Specialists, headed out to the home. 

Adam got right to work inspecting the area, and when he finished, he informed the homeowner that we could save the sinking concrete with the help of our PolyLevel injection. Adam explained that PolyLevel is a dense polyurethane foam that expands when its injected beneath concrete slabs. It works to fill voids left over by soil erosion and, in the process, lifts the sunken slabs back into place. Adam went on to say that he recommended safeguarding the lift with the help of our NexusPro. This silicone-based sealant gets installed directly to the cracks and joints in the newly lifted concrete, and serves as a barrier, as it's specifically designed to stand up against harsh weather conditions. The homeowner liked the idea of a non-invasive fix, and scheduled his job on the spot.

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Jordan S, and his team were able to complete the lift and seal with no issues. Now, our customer can rest easy knowing his trip hazards have been handled! 

Failing Foundation Stabilized in Rochester, MN

A homeowner from Rochester, MN, was doing laundry one evening when he noticed a large crack running lengthwise on his foundation wall. He was worried that the issue would impact the safety of his home, so he decided to find a reputable foundation repair contractor in Rochester, MN. Through recommendations, he found American Waterworks and signed up for his FREE estimate. 

Several weeks later, Dustin L, one of our Design Specialists, was scheduled to head out to the home. When he arrived, the customer directed him to the wall in question, and he began his estimate. When he finished, he met with the homeowner to discuss his findings. Dustin explained that foundation walls are designed to withstand loads from above, not from the side. So when the pressure on the wall exceeds what the wall can withstand, it's not uncommon for homeowners to see cracking, bowing, sliding in at the bottom, and/or tilting inward at the top. Dustin went on to say that, while the diagnosis is serious, the homeowner shouldn't be too worried because he had a solution. Dustin urged the homeowner to consider our GeoLock anchors. This innovative system counteracts the pressure being put on the wall by anchoring the wall to the hard-packed, undisturbed soil beyond the foundation of the home. Dustin finished by saying that this system can be tightened over time to provide further stability to the wall in question. The homeowner was thrilled with Dustin's solution and scheduled the project on the spot. 

Several weeks later, our Foreman, Jesus C, and his team were headed out to the home. After a long day, they had successfully installed 6 of our GeoLock anchors in the space. Now, our customer has renewed faith in her largest investment!
