American Waterworks Before & After Photos

We received a request for a free estimate after this Blue Earth, MN homeowner noticed that his free-standing garage foundation was starting to shift and collapse. American Waterworks respected design specialist, Eric Hazelton, was able to craft a lasting solution using our Geo Lock Wall Anchor System.  Four galvanized earth anchors were installed to straighten the foundation wall back to it's original position.

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. Mike suggested using PolyLevel, our polyurethane foam injection solution, and NexusPro to fill the various cracks throughout the sidewalk. The homeowner agreed and the plans were sent to the office to be approved. Once approved, the plans were directed to our Foreman, Domanik, and his crew. Domanik arrived at the home and began by lifting the walkway near the garage and the slab by the service door. Once the PolyLevel installation was complete, the crew took out all the old joints and replaced them with the NexusPro Joint Sealant, a silicone-based sealant. Once all the products were installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to lift and level another home's uneven concrete. 

Roger D. in New Ulm, MN had two bowing foundation walls in his basement. He was concerned about the damage it could be causing to his foundation, so he decided it was time to have a professional inspect his situation. He began researching foundation repair contractors and came across American Waterworks' website. He contacted us, and we sent one of our Design Specialists, Eric Hazelton, to his home to evaluate the situation and provide him with a solution. Eric addressed Roger’s questions and was able to develop a thorough plan to stabilize his walls. Roger felt that Eric’s proposal was a good fit for him, so he set a date for the installation.

Our production crew installed 11 wall anchors along the two walls. Once the anchors were tightened, Roger was able to visibly see the difference in the stability of the walls. Roger was glad he chose a permanent solution to repair his foundation. Our wall anchor system is backed by a lifetime warranty, so Roger will always have peace of mind that his home is protected.

We sent one of our Design Specialists, Jeremy Radtke, to her home to provide her with a free estimate. After inspecting her wall, Jeremy recommended that we install wall anchors to permanently secure the foundation wall. Carroll agreed and like the proposal that he developed, so she scheduled the installation.

Our Foreman, Jesus Covarrubias, and his crew installed 3 wall anchors through the brick wall and underneath the driveway. They secured the anchors and the wall began to straighten and stabilize.

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!
