American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Steve in Ostrander, MN had sunken and uneven steps that were causing a safety hazard and detracting from the beauty of his home. He contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate, so our Design Specialist, Kevin Kreofsky, went onsite to provide him with an inspection and solution. Steve was pleased to learn that our PolyLevel foam solution is faster, less invasive and more durable than traditional concrete repair.

Our PolyLevel expert, Jared Wroblewski, and his assistant drilled small holes into the concrete and injected the polymer foam until the steps were raised back to their original position. Then, they sealed the cracks in the concrete with our NexusPro joint sealant and cleaned their work area. This process only took a couple of hours to complete, and now Steve can enjoy a beautiful and safe front porch for years to come!

Rich A. in Altura, MN contacted us regarding his severely cracked garage walls. The garage was built on a hill and the soil was shifting, causing damage to the foundation of the garage. One of our Design Specialists, Mac Cole, went to his home to provide him with a FREE, onsite inspection.

Mac designed a solution to permanently repair the foundation of his garage by using wall anchors and power braces. Rich liked the proposal that Mac presented to him, so he decided to move forward and have our foundation repair system installed.

Our production team started the installation process by drilling small holes into the brick walls and inserting metal rods. Then, they secured the rods with anchors. Once the anchors were completely tightened, they could see a dramatic improvement in the stability of the walls. The walls had started to straighten and there were no longer cracks. Lastly, we sealed the walls with Silverglo and SentrySeal which ensure that water will not seep through the wall. Our foundation repair products are backed by a lifetime warranty, so Rich is confident that he chose the right solution to protect his garage for the long-term.

Marilyn from Minneiska, MN got in contact with us when she began to notice a musty smell originating from her crawl space beneath her home. She wanted to fix the issue and make sure she wasn't experiencing more serious water intrusion. When she got in contact with us, we set her up with our FREE estimate, entitling her to a thorough, no-obligation inspection by a member of our Design Specialists team. Shortly after, our Design Specialist, Rick, headed out to the property to see what could be done. Once he completed his walkthrough, he was able to make his recommendations as to how we could help. He wanted to use three of our products to seal the space, ensuring no water would penetrate it. First, he recommended a base layer of our drainage matting, a liner that rests directly on the crawl space floor, working to trap water underneath it and direct it to the appropriate disposal site. Next, Rick wanted to encapsulate the entire space in our CleanSpace vapor barrier. He explained that this system is a durable, bright white liner that gets installed on the floors and walls of the space, and works to prevent water vapor and humidity from passing through the space. Finally, he wanted to seal all remaining cracks and holes with our SprayFoam, a durable foam that works to block any water from entering. Our customer agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Kiko, and his crew ended up installing 168 sqft of drainage matting throughout the space and another 230 sqft of CleanSpace. Once the job was completed, Marilyn was happy to know she no longer had to worry about unwanted water in the space. 

A homeowner in Altura, MN became worried about his basement when his daughter had informed him that her floors were damp. He looked into the problem himself and found exactly what she had said. Not wanting the damage to worsen if water continued to make its way into the home, he decided to find a solution. Online he found the American Waterworks company name and once he saw some of their before and after photos from past waterproofing jobs, he signed up for one of the FREE estimate appointments. The homeowner was greeted by Design Specialist Nick Skillman, who inspected the entire basement and gave his recommendations. Nick found other areas that also had some water damage and he suggested that the whole basement be waterproofed. The homeowner agreed and wanted to move forward with the plan for installations. One of our Foremen, Arturo Mares, and his crew later went to the site to install the WaterGuard basement drainage system. WaterGuard works to intercept water at the perimeter of the basement and sends it away safely to the pump. The homeowner was so glad that a solution had been found and that he no longer had to worry about water entering the space.

Mark K. in Dover, MN had a sunken driveway that he had tripped on numerous times. He started looking for repair options and he came across American Waterworks’ website. He was interested in learning more about our PolyLevel concrete repair option, so he contacted us for a FREE estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Brian Ramirez to his home to inspect his concrete and provide him with a personalized solution. Mark was happy to learn that PolyLevel is faster, less invasive, and more durable than traditional mudjacking, so he scheduled to have his concrete lifted.

Our concrete repair experts drilled small holes into the concrete and injected the polymer foam until the concrete slabs were raised and even with the garage floor. Then, they filled back the small holes with concrete and sealed the cracks in the concrete with our NexusPro joint sealant. The process only took a couple of hours to complete. This eliminated Mark’s trip hazard and now he can enjoy a beautiful concrete driveway for years to come!
