American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Brian from Mason City, IA got in contact with us when he began to notice that his front walkway was slowly sinking, slipping away from his front step. He was afraid that if he left the issue alone, he would run the risk of creating a dangerous trip hazard. When he called in, we set him up with our FREE estimate with one of our Design Specialists. Once the appointment was set, Brady headed out to the property to see what could be done to fix the issue. Once he completed his walkthrough, he recommended that Brian think of using our PolyLevel concrete lifting and leveling solution. He explained that this modern solution is an expanding polyurethane foam that is injected beneath the concrete to fill the gaps caused by soil erosion and raise and stabilize the concrete surface. Brian agreed with the recommendations and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Sam, began the process of lifting by strategically drilling holes into the concrete slab. Next, he injected the foam into the holes, making sure to closely monitor the lifting process as to not over correct the slab. When the job was completed, Brian was pleased to know he no longer had to worry about tripping on his front step!  

A homeowner in Mason City, IA, discovered large horizontal cracks on their foundation walls. Concerned by this discovery, the homeowner decided they wanted a professional to take a look. Overwhelmed by all their options, the homeowner asked their neighbors if they had any recommendations. The neighbor recommended working with us, American Waterworks. After the neighbor gave them our number, the homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists, Eric, was sent to complete the estimate in the home. Eric arrived at the home to begin the basement analysis. After he inspected the basement, Eric discovered that the cracks were caused by hydrostatic pressure. To stop the walls from bowing in further, Eric suggested the walls be permanently stabilized with GeoLocks, our innovative wall anchoring system. After thinking about their options, the homeowner agreed with Eric's suggestions. The plans were assigned to our Formean, Crescencio, and his crew. When the crew arrived, they began by mapping out where the 10 GeoLocks would be secured. Then, they began installing four GeoLocks on the west and six GeoLocks on the north foundation wall. Once the GeoLocks were properly secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was at ease knowing their foundation was saved from possible failure. American Waterworks is happy to give another homeowner peace of mind. 

A homeowner in Mason City, IA was worried about the state of his basement floors. With all of the heavy rainfall they had been having, their older home was taking in some water in the basement area. As a result, the floors had been damaged and worn down. Not wanting the problems to worsen if left unattended, he decided to find a company that could help. During his search, he found the American Waterworks website and signed up for one of our FREE no-obligation estimates. One of our Design Specialists, Trevor Simmons, went to the home where he carried out a detailed inspection of the basement. The damage to the floors was noticeable and Trevor was eager to help stop the issue and prevent it from happening to the basement again. The homeowner was glad to hear of plans for the installation of a WaterGuard perimeter drain system and agreed for the project to begin. Our Foreman, Victor Salvador, and his crew later arrived at the site to carry out the installation of the new drain system. The homeowner was so happy to hear that no more water would leak into the basement and ruin the floors again.

A homeowner from Mason City, IA, was growing tired of having to step on the gas when entering her driveway to combat uneven slabs that had been slowing her down. Not wanting to let the issue worsen, she decided to get some advice from friends and family, all of whom recommended American Waterworks for the fix. She decided to call us, claim her FREE estimate, and have one of our Design Specialists check out her problem. A few weeks later a member of our Design Specialist team, Romeo, headed out to the home.

After completing his inspection, Romeo informed the homeowner that we could rectify the situation with the use of our PolyLevel lifting solution. Our PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that expands when injected below concrete slabs, pushing concrete upward and back into its original position. Romeo finished by saying that our team would finish the installation with our NexusPro, a silicone-based joint and crack sealant that prevents the elements from getting under the concrete, possibly compromising the lift. the homeowner agreed and work began a few weeks later. 

Once the project had been completed, our customer was thrilled to know she could now drive on her driveway with ease of mind! 

A couple from Mason City, IA was beginning to notice that their front patio/walkway was showing signs of sinking and slowly becoming uneven. Not wanting the issue to get worse, they decided to get in touch with a company that could help them fix the situation. After researching on their own, they came across our website and decided to set up their FREE estimate, and a few weeks later our Design Specialist, Nate B, headed out to the home. 

Once Nate completed his inspection, he met with the owners and informed them that they were right to get in touch with us. He explained that what they were experiencing was a fairly common problem that we could fix using a non-invasive, yet effective method; PolyLevel. Our PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that expands when it's injected below concrete slabs, filling voids left by soil erosion and raises and stabilizes the sinking concrete surface. When the lift has been completed, our team installs our NexusPro, a silicone-based sealant, along the cracks and joints of the concrete, preventing any elements from getting under the slab, and potentially compromising the lift. The homeowner agreed and work began a few weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Sam, and his crew made quick work of the installation. When the project had been completed, our customers were thrilled with the new look of their front patio!
