Sunken Concrete Stairs Get a Lift in Plymouth, MN

A homeowner in Plymouth, MN, was growing more and more frustrated with the concrete in front of her house. Her concrete stairs leading up to her front door were beginning to sink, creating a trip hazard and an eyesore. Not wanting to sacrifice safety or curb appeal, the homeowner decided to begin researching companies in the area that could help. When she came across our website, she decided to take advantage of our FREE estimates, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Daniel R, headed out to the home. 

Once Daniel completed his inspection, he met with the homeowner to give her his recommendation. He informed her that American Waterworks could address the sinking with our PolyLevel method. PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that expands when injected beneath sinking slabs, filling voids left by soil erosion and slowly lifting concrete back into place. Daniel went on to say that we finished our lifting process with the installation of our NexusPro. A silicone-based sealant, NexusPro gets applied directly to the cracks and joints in the slab being lifted, preventing unwanted elements from permeating the slab. The homeowner agreed with the proposed work and the job was scheduled for a month later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Sam K, and his team were able to complete the lift to our customer's satisfaction. Now our homeowner can rest easy knowing her curb appeal and safety have been restored!

Sunken Patio Repaired in Cleveland, MN

Dave P. in Cleveland, MN noticed his patio concrete had settled and was uneven in a couple of spots. He was unhappy with the way it looked and wanted it completely level and to have the cracks sealed. After researching concrete repair contractors and receiving estimates, he decided to have American Waterworks repair his concrete.

Our concrete repair experts drilled small holes into the concrete to inject a polymer foam called PolyLevel. Once the foam is injected into the concrete, the foam expands and raises it. They injected the foam into multiple spots in patio until the concrete was raised and level to its original position. Then, they caulked and sealed the cracks with our NexusPro sealant to protect the concrete and give it a nice, finished look. The process only took a couple of hours, and Dave was very pleased with the results!

PolyLevel Injection in Cleveland, MN

A homeowner in Cleveland, MN was concerned about her front sidewalk area and how sunken many of the slabs were. She lived in a neighborhood full of kids that would use the sidewalk every day and were likely to trip on the uneven slabs eventually. She decided to find a solution to prevent any problems from happening and went online to search "concrete repair expert near me." She went through the search results and quickly was interested in the American Waterworks reviews from past jobs on our company website. Once she discovered our FREE estimate services, she signed up for her own and later met with Design Specialist Kevin Beseman. Kevin saw just what the homeowner was concerned with and assured her we had the product to eliminate the issue. Our PolyLevel solution is a high-density polyurethane formula that stabilizes and lifts sinking concrete slabs. The homeowner was relieved to hear this and agreed to the plans. One of our Foremen, Dylon Mish, and his crew went to the site and carefully installed the PolyLevel underneath the concrete sidewalk. Once everything was smoothed out, they made sure the homeowner was pleased with the results before cleaning up and leaving the home.

Matt T. of Shakopee, MN had water leaking through the corner of his unfinished basement wall during heavy rainstorms and he wanted to get it looked at it before it got any worse. He knew of an employee at American Waterworks, so he scheduled a free estimate with our Design Specialist, Tim Schneider. Tim went to his home, carefully inspected his problems, and drew out a solution that worked for him and his budget.

Our Foreman, Lane Schlobohm, and his production team started the work by installing our CleanSpace Half Wall System Vapor Barrier around the basement wall perimeter, which is made to prevent mold and mildew, and it acts as an extra wall protectant. Next, our team installed our DryTrak Drain Pipe System, which is permanently installed above the floor. Our crew drilled a weep hole through each foundation block to enable the water to pour through the holes and into the drain pipe.
