American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Allen from Maple Grove, MN got in touch with us when he started to notice an uneven walkway to the footsteps of his door. Allen was worried about the potential trip hazards the sinkage of the concrete slab may cause and wanted to address the issue before it has a chance to worsen. Allen then got into contact with the Appointment Center here at American Waterworks and claimed his FREE estimate, entitling him to a thorough inspection into the issue.  Our Design Specialist, Ben, headed to Allen's property to inspect the damage and give recommendations based on how we can tackle the issue to prevent the concrete slab from worsening. Once completing the thorough inspection, Ben recommended Allen invest in our PolyLevel solution and finish with our NexusPro solution. Allen agreed with the solution and the installation began shortly after. Our poly crew then strategically drilled holes into the concrete slabs that had sinkage to inject the PolyLevel Solution. The PolyLevel solution is an expanding polyurethane foam that is injected underneath the concrete slabs, to fill the voids underneath the slab that were caused by soil erosion. Once the polyurethane has been injected the crew then finished the project by sealing the cracks and joints with our NexusPro solution. the NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant that is formulated for flexibility and long-lasting to survive harsh weather conditions, helping ensure that the concrete will stay raised. 

Allen was happy with the work and to know that the issue will not worsen causing any casualties!

Sean D. of Maple Grove, MN had a crack in his foundation wall, raising awareness of the structure of the home. He called our Appointment Center here at American Waterworks to claim his FREE estimate with our Design Specialist. Our Design Specialist not only examined the wall showing foundation issues but provided Sean with a full house inspection to provide the appropriate solution for Sean. Our Design Specialist recommended Sean invest in our GeoLock Wall Anchor System. The GeoLock Wall Anchor system is a solution that stabilizes the foundation, preventing any bowing or further cracking. Over time these anchors may be tightened to straighten the wall. Sean agreed with the proposal and schedule an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Jesus C, and his production team began the process by digging four holes in the garage to insert a long rod, from the inside, through the foundation wall with an issue. At the end of the rod, there is a GeoLock Wall Anchor that permanently stabilizes the foundation of the house using the hard-packed, compact soil that is underneath the home. Once the GeoLock is placed and ready, the production team backfills the holes with new soil and placed a layer of concrete above to give the floor a finishing look. Sean was very satisfied with the project and is not worried about the foundation of his home.

A homeowner in Maple Grove, MN, found small cracks cascading up the brick wall. Concerned by this discovery, the homeowner began searching for a professional basement repair company that could provide the answers. While browsing, the homeowner came across our eye-catching before and afters on social media. Once they saw the great work we do, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. The homeowners prepared for the arrival of one of our Design Specialists, Nick. After he arrived, Nick began completing the thorough inspection of the basement. Following the inspection, Nick determined that the walls needed to be permanently stabilized. Nick recommended a solution that would solve the wall stability issues, along with the risk of basement flooding. After contemplating their options, the homeowners decided that the focus should be on the wall stability issues. The plans were then directed to the assigned crew and production commenced. Our Foreman, Lane, and his crew arrived at the property to begin the project. To stabilize the wall, the crew decided to utilize CarbonArmor strips. The crew installed the CarbonArmor strips onto the south basement wall. Once the CarbonArmor was attached to the wall, the crew cleaned up their job site and left the home. The homeowners were glad to know that their basement walls were permanently stabilized. American Waterworks is happy to help out another customer.

A homeowner from Maple Grove, MN, got in touch with us when she decided she wanted to address her front walkway, which had been showing signs of slowly sinking over time. After seeing one of our printed ads, she decided to give us a call and claim her FREE estimate. A few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Gary S, headed out to the home. 

Once Gary finished his inspection, he met with the homeowner to give his recommendations. Gary explained that American Waterworks could address the sinking concrete by using our PolyLevel lifting method. He went on to say that our PolyLevel is a dense, polyurethane foam that expands when it's injected beneath concrete slabs, filling voids left by soil erosion and slowly lifting the concrete back into place. He finished by informing her that we finish our lifts by installing our NexusPro. A silicone-based sealant, NexusPro gets applied directly to the cracks and joints in the concrete and works to prevent debris and moisture from getting below the slab. The homeowner agreed with the proposed work and the job was scheduled to be completed a few weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Sam K, and his team were able to complete the lift and sealing to the customer's satisfaction. Now our customer can enjoy her front walk!
