Cold Spring, MN Trusted Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair Contractor

A homeowner from Cold Spring, MN, had just learned of the dangers radon gas poses to a household and completed an at-home test, which came back with high levels of radon. She didn't want her family to be inhaling harmful toxins, so she decided to search for radon mitigation MN. When she found our website, she looked through our pictures of radon mitigation system and eventually decided to claim her FREE estimate. Several weeks later, Gary S, one of our Design Specialists, headed out to the home to see what could be done. 

When Gary arrived, he got right to work conducting his estimate. When he finished, he was ready to meet with the homeowner to discuss next steps. Because of the high radon levels, Gary recommended our radon mitigation system. When installed by an experienced radon mitigation specialist, a radon abatement system will lower the concentration of radon gas in your interior air to the minimal levels recommended by the EPA and other health and safety agencies. Before installing a radon mitigation system, the contractor will run a radon test to determine if radon abatement is necessary.

A typical radon mitigation system consists of a large-diameter plastic pipe that connects the air beneath your foundation to the outdoors. An in-line fan sucks radon-rich air from beneath your foundation and expels this hazardous air to the exterior. Instead of entering your basement or other living space area through numerous gaps and cracks in the foundation, radon gas is extracted from beneath your foundation before it can permeate into interior space. The homeowner agreed and the work was scheduled for several weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Jackson, was able to install the system without any issues. Now, our customer can breathe easy in her home, knowing her high radon levels have been conquered.

In Cold Spring, MN a homeowner was interested in fixing up his driveway. He was tired of dealing with the uneven surface whenever he drove on it and didn't want to leave the many cracks to get worse. Going online to see what options were in the Minnesota area, he quickly found the American Waterworks website. The homeowner had heard of our company before, but wanted to learn more so he went to our website and found the American Waterworks reviews page. He was impressed with all of the positive comments from past customers and was confident in our services, so he signed up for a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists went to the home to complete the estimate and determined that installing two of our products would prevent any more problems from happening to the driveway. The homeowner was relieved to hear something could be done and agreed to the project plans. Later, our Foreman, Patrick Burnes, and his crew arrived at the site and installed our PolyLevel solution and NexusPro sealant. They started by drilling small pencil-sized holes throughout the surface and inserted ports in the holes to reach the empty space below the slabs. The PolyLevel foam was then injected in the ports and filled in the space until the concrete was fully lifted. The crew filled in the holes with NexusPro and also the cracks that were scattered throughout the concrete. A layer of native sand was placed on top of the sealant for a smooth final look for the driveway. The homeowner was impressed with our team's hard work and was happy to have a smooth, crack-free driveway again.

A female resident of Cold Spring, MN had cracks in the concrete of her driveway and patio, causing her to worry about the value of her home.

Jesse went to the resident's house, inspected their driveway and patio, and proposed the solution of our NexusPro. The resident got all of her questions answered about the product, so she signed the contract, put down a deposit, and got a date scheduled for the work to be done. 

Our Foreman and his concrete crew member applied our NexusPro throughout all of the cracks, ensuring no moisture would be able to get underneath the concrete. Our NexusPro is durable and provides long-lasting flexibility to the concrete while giving it the ability to stand up to harsh weather conditions. 

The first step in the application of NexusPro is to prepare the cracks and joints. Preparation includes removing all debris, any existing sealant, and grinding out the cracks to provide a clean surface. Next, our NexusPro is applied to the crack and compressed down into the joint or crack with a special tool that gives it the concaved impression.
