Unhealthy Crawl Space Gets Transformed in La Crosse, WI

A La Crosse, WI, homeowner had noticed an odd smell coming from his crawl space beneath the home. He was concerned about what this could mean for his home, so he quickly took to the web to search for best crawl space repair near me, and when our website popped up, he decided to sign up for a FREE estimate, and several weeks later, Dustin L, one of our Design Specialists, headed out to the home. After Dustin completed his inspection, he was ready to meet with the homeowner to discuss remedies for the problem. Dustin recommended two of our products to address the moisture in the space. First, Dustin wanted to cover the crawl space walls with our CleanSpace crawl space vapor barrierThis durable, bright white crawl space liner is installed on the walls and floors, preventing water vapor and humidity from passing through. By keeping your crawl space dry, you protect your structure and insulation from mold and rot. With a 25-year warranty against rips and tears, this durable 20-mil poly-reinforced crawl space liner converts your crawl space into a usable storage area. And with its mold-resistant additive "UltraFresh", CleanSpace® will never support mildew or mold growth on its surface. Next, Dustin explained that crawl space liners rest directly on the crawl space floor. If your crawl space is flooding, water can be trapped underneath, never making it to your perimeter drain. The raised dimples on our CleanSpace® Drainage Matting gives the water flooding into your crawl space a channel underneath your crawl space liner. This directs the water flooding your crawl space to your perimeter crawl space drain and sump pump. The homeowner agreed with Dustin's recommendations, and several weeks later, the project began. 

Our Foreman, Jesus M, led his team through a precise, clean installation. Now, our customer can rest easy knowing that his crawl space is protected!

Cracked Concrete Walkway Gets Fixed in La Crosse, WI

A La Crosse, WI, homeowner was growing tired of a piece of uneven concrete in the walkway in front of his home. Each time he walked over the cracked concrete, he took a tumble as it was protruding. He began to look for contractors offering concrete repair in WI. When he found our website, he signed up for his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, Ross J headed out to the home. 

Ross got right to work assessing the concrete. When he finished, he informed the homeowner that we could address the issue using our PolyLevel injection. This product is a polyurethane foam that expands as it's injected beneath sunken concrete. It works to fill voids left by soil erosion, slowly lifting the concrete back to its original resting place in the process. Ross went on to say that, as an extra measure of protection, he was recommending our NexusPro. This silicone-based sealant is applied to all the cracks and joints of the newly lifted concrete. It works to prevent unwanted moisture from getting below the concrete to the vulnerable soil below. The homeowner agreed with Ross's plan, and scheduled the job on the spot. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Sam K, and his team were able to lift, level, and seal the concrete with no issues. Now, our customer can enjoy his home without worries of uneven concrete! 

High Radon Gas Levels Eliminated in La Crosse, WI

A homeowner from La Crosse, WI, had been reading a local newspaper when she saw one of our print ads for radon gas mitigation. She didn't know much about radon, so she took to the internet. What she found out was very disconcerting, so she decided to call us to schedule a FREE estimate. Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Brad W, was headed out to the home. 

When Brad arrived, the first step in his process was to place a continuous radon monitoring test in the lowest level of the home. Brad explained that this test works to record the radon levels within the home over a 48-hour timespan. After the test concludes, an average radon level will be delivered. Brad went on to say that if the levels came back higher than 4 pCi/L, he would strongly recommend the installation of a radon mitigation system. He explained that a typical radon mitigation system consists of a large-diameter plastic pipe that connects the air beneath your foundation to the outdoors. An in-line fan sucks radon-rich air from beneath your foundation and expels this hazardous air to the exterior. Instead of entering your basement or other living space area through numerous gaps and cracks in the foundation, radon gas is extracted from beneath your foundation before it can permeate into interior space. The homeowner liked the sound of Brad's plan but decided to wait until the results returned to make a choice. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Geno M, and his team were able to effortlessly install the system within the home. Now, our customer can have confidence in the air circulating in her home!

 

Uneven Concrete Driveway Restored in La Crosse, WI

Paul M. in La Crosse, WI realized that his concrete driveway had settled, making it an uneven surface. The concrete walkway leading up to his front porch had also become uneven. Paul wasn’t happy with how his driveway looked and he was concerned that it could become a trip hazard. He saw an advertisement for American Waterworks in his local newspaper and saw that we are concrete repair experts.

After learning more about our company, he gave us a call to receive a free estimate. We were happy to send one of our Design Specialists, Don Mancilman, to his home to provide him with a solution. After inspecting Paul’s concrete, Don assured him that we could raise and level his concrete within a matter of hours. Paul was pleased with the proposal that Don developed, so they set a date for the injection.

One of our PolyLevel experts, Brandon Wiskow, drilled penny-sized holes into the concrete slabs where the foam would be injected. Then, he injected the foam until the concrete was once again a level surface. Lastly, he sealed the cracks in the concrete with our Nexus Pro sealant and cleaned up his work area. Paul is glad he found a quick, durable, and more affordable concrete repair solution. He can now enjoy a raised and level driveway for years to come!
