American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN, noticed that his back porch had begun sinking, causing the slabs to lean on one side. Worried it would be a trip hazard and that it would get worse, the homeowner decided to address the issue immediately and began looking for concrete lifting in the area. The homeowner found our website and contacted us to schedule his FREE estimate. 

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Romeo V., arrived at the home to answer any questions the homeowner had and to conduct a proper inspection of the porch. He informed the homeowner that one of the common causes for settling slabs is soil washout. When it rains or floods, water moves through the ground, underneath the slabs, and washes away supporting soils. As this continues, this leads to voids and gaps in the soil causing the slabs to sink. For this reason, Romeo recommended PolyLevel to lift the concrete and NexusPro to seal the joints. After reviewing the proposal, the homeowner happily agreed to Romeo's recommendations. 

In about a month, our Foreman, Troy J., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They lifted the settling slabs by first drilling small into them and inserting the injection ports. PolyLevel is then injected beneath the slab, expanding and filling in the empty spaces in the soil. Once the slab has been lifted, the crew then seals the holes with cement. Lastly, the crew used NexusPro to seal the joints. After they were done, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

A customer from Minneapolis got in contact with us when he began to notice that his front steps were beginning to sink. He knew that if he left it alone, the issue would continue to worsen, creating a tripping hazard and becoming more costly to fix down the road. When he called in, he claimed his FREE estimate and our Design Specialist headed out to the property. Once there, he completed a thorough inspection into the issue and then made his recommendations as to how we could help. He recommended the use of our PolyLevel injected, followed by sealing the cracks and joints with our NexusPro solution. He explained that the PolyLevel is an expanding polyurethane foam that has a quick curing time and is much less invasive than alternative methods. He went on to say that the NexusPro works to seal all cracks and joints to prevent any further water from getting under the slab. The customer agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our PolyLevel production team, led by Dylon, began the process by strategically drilling holes into the problem slab. Next, they inserted the PolyLevel and closely monitored the lifting process to ensure the slab returned to its previous state. Once done, the customer was happy to know her tripping hazard had been eliminated!

A homeowner in Brooklyn Center, MN, had taken one tumble too many over uneven concrete on the walkway in front of her home. Wanting to avoid any more accidents, the homeowner decided to take advantage of our FREE estimates, and a few weeks later our Design Specialist headed out to the home. 

Once the inspection was complete, our Design Specialist informed the homeowner that her concrete could be a simple fix. He recommended the use of our PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam that expands when it's injected beneath concrete, filling voids caused by soil erosion and slowly lifting the concrete back to its desired position. He went on to say that our process is finished by installing our NexusPro along cracks and joints of the concrete to ensure that no unwanted water or debris penetrates the slab, compromising the slab. The homeowner agreed, and work began a few weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Dylon, made quick work of the installation. Now our customer can use their front walkway without worries of tripping! 

A homeowner from Brooklyn Center, MN, was growing frustrated over her leaky basement. She had a waterproofing system in place already, but she feared her old sump was having trouble keeping up, because each time it rained, her basement corners would floor. Not wanting any of the children in the home to get to the dirty water, she decided to begin her search for a MN  basement waterproofing company. When she found our website, she decided to sign up for her FREE estimate, and a few weeks later,  Ryan P, one of our Design Specialists, headed to her home.

After Ryan completed his inspection, he informed the homeowner that American Waterworks could help fix the issue. Ryan wanted to install our SuperSump sump pump. The SuperSump is an effective and economical solution to fighting unwanted water. It's engineered to help keep the basement dry and healthy for extended periods, even during times of heavy water intrusion. The SuperSump boasts a powerful Zoller 1/3 horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement. Ryan finished by saying that the sump pump could be connected to the existing system. The homeowner was thrilled to hear the news, and scheduled the job for several weeks later. 

The next month, our waterproofing team headed out to her home. Led by their Foreman, Kevin M, the team successfully placed a SuperSump, and attached it to the pre-existing system. Now our customer can enjoy her basement without worries of water!

Robert C. of Brooklyn Park, MN had cracked foundation walls, so he called American Waterworks for a FREE Estimate. Our Design Specialist, Jeremy Radtke, went out to his home to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. Robert felt confident in Jeremy's proposal, so he scheduled an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Hugo Sanchez, and his production team began the installation by digging holes outside of the home to install our GeoLock Wall Anchors from the outside soil to the interior foundation wall. Our crew tightened them on each side, permanently stabilizing and straightening the wall. To complete the work, our crew filled the holes with soil and replaced the dirt, leaving the home better than the way they found it. Robert's peace of mind was restored, thanks to Hugo and his crew!
