Concrete Leveling Before & After Photos

Richard H. in Lewisville, MN was tired of dealing with the frustration of his sunken driveway. It had sunk 2-3 inches below the concrete floor of the garage and created a large bump when driving in and out.

He started looking for concrete repair experts and found American Waterworks. He was interested to learn more about our PolyLevel concrete repair solution, so he gave us a call. Our Design Specialist, Eric Hazelton, went to his home to give him a free onsite estimate. Richard was pleased to learn that we would be able to raise his concrete and make it level with the garage again. 

Our PolyLevel expert drilled penny sized holes into the concrete slabs to inject the foam. Once the foam is injected it takes only 30 minutes to cure, so Richard was able to see the results almost immediately. Richard was happy he found an affordable and efficient concrete repair option through American Waterworks. He will no longer have the frustration of uneven concrete for years to come!

Robert, a homeowner in Emerado, ND, scheduled an appointment with our team after noticing his front sidewalk concrete was sinking. He was afraid that if he left the issue unresolved, he would run the risk of the water damaging his concrete, and excess water finding its way down to his foundation due to the runoff. We set him up with our FREE estimate, and a few weeks later our Design Specialist, James, headed out to the property to assess the issue and see what could be done to fix it. 

After his inspection, James recommended the use of our PolyLevel injection. PolyLevel is an expanding polyurethane foam meant to be injected below the slab, filling any voids caused by erosion while raising and stabilizing the concrete. Our customer agreed, and work began shortly after. Foreman Charlie and his crew began the project by introducing themselves to Robert and ensuring his questions were answered. After a complete introduction, our team got to work. The first thing our crew did was drill small, 5/8" holes throughout the slab. Next, our crew installed injection ports over the holes to guide the PolyLevel underneath the concrete. Then, our team injected the PolyLevel through the holes to get underneath the slab and fill the voids to raise and level the slab surface. Next, the team used NexusPro, a silicone-based sealant for joints and cracks specially formulated to provide long-lasting flexibility and stand up to harsh weather conditions. Unlike traditional polyurethane sealants, NexusPro resists UV rays, so it won't crack, bubble, or dry out. That means a single application can seal the joints and cracks in your concrete driveway, patio, or sidewalk for years to come, protecting it from damage caused by soil compaction and washout. To complete the installation, our crew provided the resident with a thorough walkthrough of what they did and ensured the resident's expectations were met.

Our Foreman, Patrick, and his crew were sent to the home to begin the project. First, Patrick and his crew began by lifting the driveway with the PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam injection solution. After installing the PolyLevel, the crew inserted the NexusPro in the cracks and joints of the driveway.

A homeowner in Blue Earth, MN, disliked the appearance of their cracked and uneven sidewalk. Wanting a professional opinion, the homeowner began searching "fix raise sidewalk" on the internet. One of the first results was American Waterworks' concrete lifting and leveling services. After doing further research, the homeowner knew we were the best option for them. The homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate and awaited the arrival of Mike, one of our Design Specialists. After Mike arrived, he began inspecting the problem areas of the sidewalk. Once he took a closer look, Mike determined that the sidewalk needed to be lifted and leveled.

A New Ulm, MN, homeowner had noticed that her driveway had been showing signs of sinking over the years. Some areas were worse than others, like the concrete in front of her garage door. The concrete had sunken so much that it had lead to a a giant trip hazard. The homeowner no longer wanted to sacrifice safety, so she decided to search for MN concrete repair companies. When she found our website, she signed up for her FREE estimate, and several weeks later, Tony B, one of our Design Specialists, headed out to the home. 

Tony got right to work assessing the concrete slabs. When he finished, he met with the homeowner to inform him that we could address the sinking concrete with the help of our PolyLevel injection. He informed the homeowner that PolyLevel is a dense polyurethane foam that expands when it's injected beneath sinking slabs. It slowly fills voids left by soil erosion, in the process, lifting the slabs back to their original position. Tony explained that, in comparison to other alternatives like mud jacking or full replacement, PolyLevel is cheaper, less invasive, and less time-consuming. Tony went on to say that he wanted to safeguard the lift with the help of our NexusPro solution. This silicone-based sealant gets applied directly to the cracks and joints in the newly lifted concrete. It's specifically designed to stand up against harsh weather conditions, ensuring that the vulnerable soil below is protected from the elements. The homeowner liked the sound of the non-invasive installation and signed on the spot. 

The day of the project eventually rolled around. Our Foreman, Sam, led his team through a flawless lift and seal. Now, our customer can breathe easy knowing her trip hazards have been handled!
