American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Waseca, MN was tired of dealing with the state of his sunken concrete walkway. Over time as the slabs had continued sinking, a large gap had formed between the front stoop and walkway. He was worried about people leaving from the front door and losing balance from how deep the step down was. For a temporary solution, he made a homemade third step out of wood, but knew that a permanent solution should be made. During his search online for concrete repair companies he found many positive American Waterworks reviews and was interested in signing up for one of our FREE estimate appointments. We sent Design Specialist Mike Dexter to the home where he inspected the area and gave his recommendations. Mike explained that our PolyLevel solution was the perfect way to lift the sidewalk slabs back up and eliminate the height gap. The homeowner agreed to the plans, and they were approved and sent over to Foreman Patrick Burnes and his crew. When the crew went to the site, they installed the PolyLevel as well as our NexusPro sealant for the joints, resulting in a smooth surface again. The homeowner was thrilled with the results and glad he found our services.

A homeowner from Waseca, MN, had been keeping an eye on his home's foundation for years now. Small cracks had slowly been forming over the years. The homeowner was slowly growing more and more concerned about the issue and decided to address the problem. He began to look for foundation repair companies in Minnesota and quickly found our website. He signed up for his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Eric H, was scheduled to stop at the home. 

When Eric arrived at the property, he got right to work assessing the basement. The homeowner's concerns were quickly validated, as Eric explained that foundation walls are designed to withstand pressure from the top, not the sides. He went on to say that when side pressure on a wall exceeds what the wall can withstand, cracking, bowing, and tilting inward can occur. For this reason, Eric wanted to use our GeoLock wall anchors to fix the problem. Eric explained that GeoLock anchors counteract the pressure being put on the wall by anchoring the failing wall to the undisturbed soil beyond the foundation. In many instances, these anchors can be tightened as time goes on to give the home more stability as it continues to settle. The homeowner was thrilled with Eric's solution and signed on the spot. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Raul B, led his team through the installation of 13 of our GeoLock anchors around the foundation of the home. Now, our customer can rest easy knowing his foundation issues have been conquered! 

A homeowner in Waseca, MN, had water all over their basement floor and was concerned they were experiencing a failed waterproofing system. Knowing the issue must be addressed before it worsens, the homeowner contacted us to schedule their FREE basement waterproofing estimate. 

In less than a week, one of our Design Specialists arrived at the home to conduct a thorough inspection of the basement. During the inspection, our Design Specialist noticed that the humidity levels along the walls were high and most of the water intrusions were coming from the perimeter of the basement. To solve this issue, our Design Specialist recommended installing WaterGuard, our below-the-floor drainage system, CleanSpace, our vapor wall barrier system, IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line, and replacing the sump pump with our reliable SuperSump+. The homeowner happily agreed to the recommendations and decided to move forward with the project.

In a couple of months, our Foreman, Raul B., and his crew arrived at the home to carry out the installation. The crew installed 110ft of WaterGuard and CleanSpace, 1 SuperSump+, and 1 IceGuard.

Alex D. had cracked concrete around the front porch of his house, causing him to worry about the value and appearance of his home. He did some research on HomeAdvisor and came across American Waterworks. He called our office line and set up a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist. Our Design Specialist went to his home, inspected his concrete, and came up with a solution that he was happy with. Alex got all of his questions answered so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Dylon Mish, and his crew member applied our NexusPro on the cracks around the front porch. Our NexusPro is a long-lasting sealant solution that prevents moisture from seeping into the soil beneath the concrete. It is a silicone-based sealant that provides flexibility and can stand up to harsh weather conditions. Alex was happy with the results and enjoyed watching the transformation! 

Joshua H. of Avon, MN had water leaking into his old farmhouse and he was looking for options of putting in drain tile. He got in touch with American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist. Our Design Specialist went to Joshua's house, carefully inspected her problems, and proposed a system that would work for him and his needs. He was confident in the proposal of our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain and our sump pump system, so he went ahead with the project.

Our Foreman and his crew began the project by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter and installing our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain, which is an interior drainage system that collects water seepage from basement walls, and has an easily accessible service ports when it comes time for annual maintenance. Next, our crew installed our CleanSpace tape around the bottom of the wall perimeter on top of the WaterGuard, which is made to prevent water from seeping through the bottom of the wall. Lastly, our crew installed our SuperSump Plus M53, which is a sump pump made to keep basements dry for long periods of time. To complete the project, our team filled the open-floor gaps with river rock and applied a new layer of concrete over them. Joshua was happy with the work and had a great experience from start to finish!
