American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Kevin B. of Fergus Falls, MN had a cracked, bowing foundation wall that needed to be repaired. He found American Waterworks on Google, so he called our office staff and scheduled a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist, Richie, inspected the walls and proposed our Wall Anchor System to stabilize the walls and our caulk to seal the cracks. Kevin was confident in the proposal, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Cameron, and his crew installed five of our wall anchors along the foundation wall to stabilize and straighten them back to their normal positions. Next, our crew sealed the cracks with caulk, which gives the walls a nice appearance and prevents moisture from seeping inside the cracks. Kevin was happy with the work that was completed, and had a great experience!

Dale, from Fergus Falls, MN, reached out to us when he began to notice that one of the walls of his basement was beginning to bow inward. Dale knew that a deteriorating foundation was not only dangerous for the household but could potentially harm any resale of the house that might be in the future. Dale used his FREE estimate and our Fargo-based Design Specialist, Ian, was at the property soon after that. When Ian arrived he got to work doing a thorough inspection of the root of the cause, and the severity of the damage and made recommendations as to how we could help Dale restore his wall. Ian reported that the bowing wall was being caused by the soil on the other side of the wall pushing it inward. He recommended Dale take action soon and, based on the bowing wall, was able to recommend our PowerBrace system to correct the issue. Our PowerBrace solution is a system of I-shaped beams that work to stabilize and straighten bowing walls over a period of time. 

The Foreman for the project, Zach, and his crew got to work and ended up placing 12 PowerBraces around the perimeter of the basement in an effort to stabilize and straighten the problem wall. 

Now Dale can get back to enjoying most of what his home has to offer! 

In Fergus Falls, MN, a homeowner was concerned about the sinking sidewalk around their home. The homeowner knew the areas would become trip hazards, so they were determined to find a solution. After looking through a list of concrete leveling contractors in the area, the homeowner contacted us to schedule their FREE estimate.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Dylan J., arrived at the home to provide a thorough inspection. During the inspection, he took precise measurements to see how far the slabs had sunken and determined the areas that needed lifting and leveling. After reporting his findings to the homeowner, Dylan began working on a detailed solution. He recommended installing PolyLevel, our foam-expanding solution that fills gaps in the soil to lift uneven slabs, and NexusPro, our silicone-based sealant that is UV-resistant to seal the joints. After looking over the proposal, the homeowner happily agreed to the recommendations and decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Charlie C., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew began by precisely drilling small holes into the concrete slabs. Then, PolyLevel is injected, filling in gaps in the soil. Once the slabs have been lifted to the desired height, the crew ensures they are level before sealing the holes. Lastly, they applied NexusPro along the joints to provide a seamless look.

A homeowner from Fergus Falls, MN, was growing concerned about his front walkway. Over the years the homeowner had noticed that the concrete had begun to sink, slowly pulling away from the home and leave large gaps next to the foundation. Worried about whether or not water would leak into his basement through the gaps, the homeowner decided to search for Minnesota concrete lifting. After speaking with friends and family and doing his own research online, the homeowner decided to get a few quotes, one of which was from American Waterworks. 

A few weeks after scheduling, our Design Specialist, Jackson P, was headed out to the home to complete his free inspection. When Jackson concluded his evaluation, he sat down with the homeowner to go over next steps. Jackson informed the homeowner that the concrete was indeed shifting, and would need to be fixed. He went on to say that American Waterworks could aide the situation with the help of our PolyLevel. This unique polyurethane foam expands as it's injected below uneven concrete. As the foam expands it slowly fills the empty voids below the concrete left over by soil erosion. Jackson also recommended our NexusPro; a silicone-based joint sealant that is applied to the cracks and joints of the concrete after the lift is completed. This specially formulated product works to provide the concrete with long-lasting flexibility while defending the vulnerable soil below from harsh weather conditions and UV rays. The homeowner was thrilled to know he did not need to fully replace his concrete walkway and decided to schedule his project on the spot. 

Several weeks later our Foreman, Charlie, and his Co-Foreman were at the home lifting the areas of sunken concrete. When the job had been completed our customer was thrilled to know that his concrete problems had been handled professionally, and non-invasively.
