American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Russell H. of Mason City, IA needed her garage slab lifted to reduce the gap between her step and floor. She knew of American Waterworks from past work we had done for her foundation, so she used us again for her concrete work. Our Design Specialist, Michel, went out to her home for a FREE estimate and proposed our PolyLevel for her issue. She was confident in the product and its warranty, so she went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Troy, and his crew member injected 180 pounds of our PolyLevel underneath the concrete slab to lift and stabilize the floor to its normal position. After three and a half hours of work, Russell was able to drive in her garage and use it again without worrying about the big gap underneath her step!

Cory D. of Mason City, IA had a sunken concrete stoop that needed to be lifted. He got in contact with American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Kevin. Kevin went to Cory's house, carefully inspected his concrete, and proposed the solution of our PolyLevel, which is designed to lift and level concrete slabs and surfaces. Cory was comfortable with our presentation and product, so he moved forward. 

Our Foreman, Dylon, and his crew member injected our PolyLevel underneath the concrete stoop to fill the voids that were caused by soil erosion and raise the concrete surface. The project took less than a day and Cory was very happy with the work!

Troy H. of Mason City, IA had radon levels of 5.4 pCi/L, so he got a FREE estimate scheduled with our Design Specialist, Josh. Josh went to Troy's house, inspected his home, and provided a quote for our radon mitigation system and where to install it. Troy was confident in the placement and the price, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Dakota, and his crew member installed our mitigation system from the concrete floor of the perimeter room to the outside of the home so the radon could escape from the house. The purpose of our mitigation system is to pull radon from underneath the home and expose it into the open air. Troy had a wonderful experience and was happy with the installation!

A customer from Mason City, IA gave us a call when a rental property of his began to take on water in the basement near the base of the wall. Our customer was worried about the damage that the water could do to the structural integrity of the home. Upon further inspection, he also noticed that the problem wall was beginning to bow inwards, showing the first signs of failure. When he got in contact with us he used his FREE estimate to have one of our Design Specialists, Josh, out to the property to assess the situation. Once Josh completed his thorough inspection, he made recommendations as to how we could help. To address the failing wall, Josh recommended the use of our PowerBrace foundation wall repair system. He explained that these steel I-beams will stabilize the wall in its current position, without any further adjustments. He went on to say that over time the beams can be tightened, providing extra stability as the house shifts. To address the water intrusion, Josh recommended three of our products that would work hand in hand. First, he wanted to drape the walls in our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, a plastic tarp-like material that gets tacked to the wall, catching any water entering through cracks and porous holes. As the water drains down the plastic barrier, it deposits into Josh's second recommendation, our WaterGuard french drainage system. This discreet drainage option sits below the concrete floor of the basement, collecting the water draining down the wall caught by the CleanSpace. It then works to funnel it to an external source, which Josh had recommended to be our TripleSafe sump pump. This sump pump, made of cast iron, is reliable, powerful, and can discharge 2,220 gallons of water per hour. Josh explained that together, these products would ensure the renter's basement would stay dry and stable for years to come. The customer agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Production crew, led by our Foreman, Kiko, ended up installing 11 PowerBrace, 54ft of WaterGuard, 30 ft of CleanSpace, and 1 TripleSafe sump pump in the basement of the home. Now our customer can have faith in his rental property! 

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!
