Sunken Driveway Gets Raised in Lakeland, MN

Tom G. in Lakeland, MN had a sunken and cracked driveway that caused the surface to be uneven and dangerous. He started researching concrete repair options and he discovered American Waterworks. He was intrigued to learn more about our PolyLevel concrete repair solution, so he contacted us to receive a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists, Kevin McWithey, went onsite to evaluate his concrete and provide him with a solution. Tom was pleased to learn that our PolyLevel concrete repair solution is faster, durable and more affordable than traditional concrete repair, so he decided to move forward with the project.  

Our PolyLevel experts drilled small holes into the concrete slabs on his driveway that needed to be raised. Then, they injected the polymer foam until the slabs became level with the garage floor and the trip hazard was eliminated. Then, they sealed the holes with concrete and caulked the cracks in the concrete with our NexusPro sealant to protect the concrete and give it a nice, finished look. Tom is pleased with the outcome and he is glad he chose American Waterworks to repair his concrete!

Sinking Sidewalk Lifted in Lakeland, MN

A homeowner in Lakeland, MN, noticed their sidewalk was a mess. Knowing this could become a tripping hazard, the homeowners wanted to have this resolved. The homeowners did not want to replace their entire sidewalk, so they searched for a repair option. While going through all the companies, the homeowner was impressed by the work done by us, American Waterworks. After seeing we offer FREE estimates, the homeowner called our Appointment Center to set up their consultation. After the date was set, the homeowners prepared for the arrival of Design Specialist, Gary. Once Gary arrived, he began his detailed inspection of the sidewalk. Gary determined that the sidewalk was sinking and causing all the issues. Gary recommended that the sidewalk be lifted and leveled to even it all out. The homeowners agreed to Gary's suggestions and production commenced. Our Foreman, Patrick, and his crew arrived at the home to begin the project. First, the crew inserted the PolyLevel underneath the sinking sidewalk. Once the sidewalk was lifted to the appropriate level, the crew shifted their focus to replacing the old joints. To replace the joints, the crew utilized the NexusPro Joint Sealant. After all the new joints were filled, the crew could clean up their materials and leave the home. The homeowners were impressed that their sidewalk looked as good as new. American Waterworks is happy to assist its customers with their concrete lifting and leveling needs. 

Settled Concrete Walkway Corrected in Afton, MN

John B. in Afton, MN noticed that his concrete walkway had settled a few inches, creating a large step down from the door. He was unhappy with how it looked, and was concerned people would trip. He wanted to find an effective and affordable way to repair his concrete, rather than replacing it. 

He found American Waterworks and was intrigued by the PolyLevel concrete repair solution that we offer. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Kevin McWithey, to his home to provide him with a FREE onsite estimate. John was pleased to learn that our PolyLevel foam injection is a more affordable, non-invasive and durable alternative to traditional concrete repair.

Our PolyLevel experts, Brandon Wiskow and Jared Wroblewski, drilled small holes into the concrete slabs where the foam would be injected. Then, the foam was injected until it was raised back to its original height. The cracks in the concrete were sealed with our Nexus Pro sealant and the process was complete! The job took roughly two hours, and John was able to see the transformation almost immediately because once the foam is injected it takes only 30 minutes to cure. John was glad he chose do go with the PolyLevel repair option provided by American Waterworks.

Concrete Seperation in Afton, MN

A homeowner in Afton, MN, knew it was about time to have their concrete driveway repaired when they noticed a large separation between sections of their driveway. Knowing the problem would only worsen, the homeowner knew it was time to get a second opinion. To start their search, the homeowner asked a local Facebook group if they had recommendations. The comments flooded with recommendations for us, American Waterworks. After seeing the high response, the homeowners decided to investigate our company. The homeowners were impressed by previous jobs and knew that we were the best fit. Next, the homeowners called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, we sent one of our Design Specialist to determine the cause of the sinking. As soon as he arrived, he performed the inspection and found that the concrete was sinking into the ground. Once he determined the cause, the Design Specialist could devise a solution to fix the issue. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowners agreed to the Design Specialist's suggestions, and production preparations began. Our Foreman, Sam, and his crew arrived at the home to begin production. First, the crew inserted the PolyLevel underneath the front slab and a single slab on top of the driveway. The PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam injection solution that lifts and levels sinking concreting. Once the PolyLevel was inserted, the crew shifted their focus to replacing the joints near the door. To fill these joints, the crew used the NexusPro Sealant, a silicone-based sealant. After the joints were replaced, the crew was able to clean up the site and leave the home. The homeowners were grateful for the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to assist our customers with their concrete concerns. 

Concrete Walkway Sinking in Faribault, MN

A homeowner from Faribault, MN, noticed that the concrete slab just beyond his garage door was beginning to sink, creating a trip hazard. Not wanting anyone to take an unnecessary tumble, he decided to research companies in the area that could help with the problem. After doing his research online, he came across our website and decided to take advantage of our FREE estimates. A few weeks later our Design Specialist, Aidan, headed out to the home. 

After Aidan finished his inspection of the concrete, he informed the homeowner that he was right to call. Concrete issues are often cheaper when caught and addressed earlier. He went on to say that American Waterworks could fix the sinking slab by using our PolyLevel lifting and leveling method. Our PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that expands when injected below slabs, filling voids left by soil erosion and slowly lifting the slab back to its desired resting spot. Aidan went on to say that we finished the process by installing our NexusPro. This silicone-based sealant gets applied directly to the cracks and joints in the concrete, preventing any unwanted water from getting below the slab. The homeowner agreed and the work was scheduled to be completed a few weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Patrick, and his team made quick work of the project. When the job was completed, our customer was thrilled to know he no longer needed to worry about trip hazards!
