American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Rob B. of Winsted, MN had a two-inch stoop on his front porch, and he wanted to get it lifted and repaired rather than replaced. After finding out American Waterworks performs work in concrete repair, he got in contact with our office to set up a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Joe Muehlbauer. Joe went to his home, inspected his concrete, and came up with a solution. Rob was comfortable with Joe's proposal, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Troy Johnson, and his crew member drilled small holes into the concrete and injected our PolyLevel beneath the concrete to fill the gaps caused by soil erosion and to stabilize the concrete surface. Our PolyLevel is adjustable, it is waterproof, and it cures quickly so the concrete can be used within 15 minutes of injection. 

Andrew in Winthrop, MN had water leaking through his block foundation where the wall meets the floor. He had a working sump pump already in place, but without a drainage system the water had no way to reach the pump. He contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate, so we sent a Design Specialist to his home to develop a solution for Andrew. Our Specialist recommend having our WaterGuard drainage system installed and connected to the sump pump.

Andrew agreed with this solution, so our production crew started the installation by removing the concrete around the perimeter of the floor to create a trench for the WaterGuard. Then, they laid the WaterGuard drainage system and filled back the gaps with rock. They connected the drainage system into the existing sump pump and then replaced the concrete. This process only took a day to complete, and now Andrew is enjoying a dry, healthier basement.

Patti N. of Big Lake, MN had sunken and cracked concrete, and she wanted to get it inspected by a professional to see if it could be lifted and sealed. She found American Waterworks, so she scheduled a FREE estimate, and our Design Specialist, Ben, went to her home, thoroughly took a look at the concrete, and determined a detailed proposal. Patti was confident in Ben's plan, so she moved forward with the project. 

Our Foremen, Ben K. and Reese, were the crew leaders for the project. On the first day, Reese and his crew member applied our SealantPro on the concrete, which is a special spray that extends the life of the concrete by 3-5 times. On the second day, Ben K. injected our PolyLevel underneath the concrete to raise the surface and applied our NexusPro over the cracks to seal them closed, as well as to give the concrete a nice, clean finish. Patti was happy with the project from start to finish!

A homeowner in Big Lake, MN, noticed their sidewalk was worsening over time. Knowing they needed the issue resolved, the homeowner began looking for an expert opinion. The homeowner decided to visit NextDoor to see what their neighbors would recommend, and a high response suggested using us, American Waterworks. Soon after, the homeowner decided to visit our website and investigate the services that we offer. Once they saw we offer concrete lifting and level services, the homeowner was on board. We sent one of our Design Specialists to evaluate the concrete. Following their evaluation, the Design Specialist determined that the concrete was sinking due to soil settlement. To stop the settlement from worsening, the Design Specialists suggested that the sidewalk be lifted and leveled with the rest of the concrete. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner agreed with the Design Specialists suggestions. Once they received approval, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our crew. After they arrived, the crew began by inserting the PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam injection solution, underneath the entire sidewalk.  Once the entire sidewalk was lifted, the crew removed and replaced a few of the joints in the sidewalk. The crew used the NexusPro Sealant, a silicone-based solution, to repair these joints and cracks. To finish the project, the crew applied the SealantPro over all of the concrete. Once complete, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the excellent job completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to assist the homeowner in accomplishing their home goals. 

Christine C.'s ceiling was sinking into her basement, making her feel scared and uncomfortable living in her own home. After doing some research online, she came across American Waterworks and our foundation repair products. She called our office line and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Chad Johnson. Chad went to her home to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. Christine was confident in Chad's proposal, so she followed through with the project. 

Our Foreman, Cole Brinkman, and his production team installed 15 of our 7-foot-tall SmartJacks and their brackets to lift and stabilize the ceiling. Our SmartJacks provide a solid support for sagging beams and can be adjusted overtime to make sure they are still doing their job. For more information on our SmartJacks and what they can do for your home, click HERE. 

Christine was thrilled with the outcome, and no longer has to worry about the stability and structural build of her home!
