American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Greg B. in Hugo, MN had two bowing walls in his basement. He had noticed the bowing was getting worse over time and he was concerned about the pressure it was putting on his foundation, so he started to look for a foundation repair contractor.

He found American Waterworks’ website and was happy to see that we have many years of experience with foundation repair. He contacted us to receive a FREE estimate, so we sent one of our Design Specialists, Chad Johnson, to his home to inspect his problem and find a solution. Chad developed a thorough plan to stabilize the walls with a combination of both wall anchors and wall braces. Greg liked the proposal that Chad developed, and he felt we were a good fit for his needs, so they scheduled a date for the installation.

Our Foreman, Jesus Covarrubias, and his crew installed 9 wall braces along one of the walls and 5 wall anchors on the other. The combination of these foundation repair products straightened, and stabilized Greg’s foundation. The project took a couple of days, but Greg can rest easy knowing he invested in a permanent solution to his foundation problem.

Corey B. of Lino Lakes, MN had sinking concrete near his front porch, so he called American Waterworks after he found out we do FREE Estimates. Our Design Specialist, Chad Johnson, went out to his home to inspect the concrete. Corey was content with Chad's solution, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Jared Wroblewski, and his production team injected 103 pounds of our PolyLevel underneath the concrete to lift and stabilize the surface. With our PolyLevel injection, homeowners can walk, run, etc. on their concrete within 15 minutes after the work is completed. Corey was excited about the work and was glad we were able to help him out! 

John and Teri K. of Hugo, MN had cracked foundation walls in their basement garage, causing them to worry about the structural support of their home. They heard about American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Ryan Powell. Ryan went to their home, inspected their problems and came up with a solution that fit their needs and budget. They were confident in Ryan's proposal of our PowerBraces and ShotLock, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Matt Zeller, and his production team installed 13 of our PowerBraces around the wall perimeter. Our PowerBraces are designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten them out over time. Next, Matt and his team applied our ShotLock around the basement wall perimeter and over the PowerBraces. Our ShotLock is made to stabilize and rebuild foundation walls that have deteriorated excessively. John and Teri were happy with the repairs and could not believe the transformation! 

One of our homeowners in Hugo, MN, was due for their yearly inspection with us, American Waterworks. Knowing that the date was creeping up on them, the homeowner called our Appointment Center and set the date for their annual service. After their date was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of Edgar, one of our Service Technicians. Upon Edgar's arrival, he surveyed the work we completed and noticed it was all running smoothly. However, Edgar did take note that the homeowner's sidewalk was sinking and the joint by the garage required replacing. Edgar alerted the homeowners of the issues and recommended that they replace the joint and lift the sidewalk. Knowing we do excellent work, the homeowners agreed to Edgar's recommendations. After getting approval, Edgar directed the plans to the assigned crew, and production preparations began. Our Foreman, Troy, and his crew were assigned to tackle the task. As soon as they arrived, the crew focused on inserting the PolyLevel underneath the sinking sidewalk. The PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam injection solution, lifts settled and sinking concrete slabs. After the sidewalk was lifted and leveled, the crew removed the weakened joint. Once the old joint was removed, the crew replaced it with the NexusPro Joint Sealant, a silicone-based sealant. Following the NexusPro installation, the crew cleaned up their job site and left the home. The homeowner was pleased with the repairs completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to provide another homeowner peace of mind. 

A homeowner from Hugo, MN, was growing tired of constantly tripping over his front stairs. His front concrete walkway had been slowly sinking for years, slowly pulling away from the steps, creating the trip hazard. Not wanting the issue to worsen or even impact a future sale of the home, he decided to begin the research process. During his search, he found the American Waterworks website and decided to sign up for his FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Kyle P, headed out to the home. 

Once Kyle finished his inspection of the concrete, he met with the homeowner and informed him that American Waterworks could help fix his issue using our PolyLevel method. PolyLevel is a dense, polyurethane foam that expands when injected beneath sinking concrete slabs, filling voids left by soil erosion and slowly lifting the slab back into place. He went on to say that we finish our lifting process by installing our NexusPro. A silicone-based sealant, NexusPro gets applied directly to the cracks and joints in the concrete slab, preventing any debris or moisture from getting below the slab. The homeowner liked the sound of the plan, and work was scheduled for a few weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Jordan S, and his team were able to complete the lift and seal with no issues. Now our homeowner can enjoy his space without worrying about trip hazards!
