American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A couple from Fountain, MN got in contact with us when they began to notice that water was finding its way into their basement. Wanting to fix the issue before it could worsen, they contact our office and we set them up with our FREE estimate. A few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Josh, headed out to the property to complete his walkthrough. Once he completed his inspection, he was ready to make recommendations as to how we could help the couple transform their space. First, Josh wanted to use our CleanSpace vapor barrier. He told the couple that our CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof tarp that gets applied directly onto the basement walls experiencing leakage. It works to catch water entering through cracks and holes in the foundation, leading it down into Josh's second recommendation, our WaterGuard below-floor french drainage system. Josh said that our WaterGuard is an award-winning, patented below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. Its job is to catch water and then redirect it to the appropriate disposal site. The couple agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Kiko, and his team worked to install both products. When they finished, they installed 112ft of our WaterGuard and another 112ft of our CleanSpace throughout the basement. Now our customers can enjoy their space without thoughts of water intrusion. 

The weight and pressure from the concrete was causing this slab to sink. This Elma, IA homeowner decided to call American Waterworks to fix it!

Our design specialist suggested PolyLevel foam injection to raise the concrete. PolyLevel is inserted through a small hole to fill under the sinking area. Polymer materials fill the space and slowly expand to raise the concrete back to its original state. 

These homeowners were so pleased with the outcome! 

A homeowner in Elma, IA was tired of dealing with the large bump that had formed in between his driveway and the garage floor. Over time it had sunk which resulted in this problem and had become an issue for his car and more recently he noticed it was a safety hazard when he tripped on it. Not wanting the problem to get worse, he was determined to go online and find a solution. He searched for "how to fix sinking driveway" and was surprised with how many results showed up. He ended up going with American Waterworks because of our FREE estimate appointments and on the day of his estimate was greeted by one of our Design Specialists. The Design Specialist explained that our PolyLevel product was the best solution for the situation because it was strong enough to lift the concrete back up and less expensive than replacing the whole driveway. The homeowner agreed and later our Foreman, Troy Johnson, and his crew arrived at the site for the installation. They injected the PolyLevel foam and also filled in the empty joints with NexusPro for a smooth finish. The homeowner was excited to have a bump-free driveway again and thanked our crew for their work.

Wally V in Chatfield, MN had settled concrete on his patio. The concrete had and sunk, and it had become an un-level surface. He wanted to find a simple and affordable solution to his concrete problem. He had heard from a friend about our concrete repair services, so he contacted us to see what we could do for him.

He was pleased to learn about our PolyLevel foam injection solution which is durable, faster, and more affordable than traditional concrete repair. One of our Design Specialists went to his home to do a FREE onsite estimate. Wally decided that PolyLevel was the best solution for him to raise and level his concrete. 

The installation process took less than two hours, and Wally was happy that he could see the results immediately. PolyLevel is a quick and non-invasive concrete repair solution because once the foam is injected, it only takes 30 minutes to cure. Wally now has peace of mind that his porch will be stable and level for years to come. 

Stacie C. of Chatfield, MN had water leaking through the walls of her basement. After hearing about us through a referral, she called our office line and set up a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Tim Schneider. Tim went to her home, inspected the problem, and came up with a solution. Stacie was comfortable with the project, so she went ahead and scheduled the installation date. 

Our Foreman, Dylon VanCanneyt, and his production team began the project by breaking out the concrete perimeter of the basement floor, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed 30 feet of our WaterGuard System which is made to collect water seepage from basement walls and act like an underground drain. Next, our team applied 30 feet of our CleanSpace Wall System around the wall perimeter which prevents mold, mildew, and humidity. It also provides the basement space with a neat and clean look. To complete the project, Dylon and his crew covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Stacie had a remarkable experience from start to finish!
