A homeowner in Rochester, MN was concerned that his sinking steps were settling on one side causing it to be uneven. Wanting to address the issue immediately rather than waiting, the homeowner decided to look into concrete lifting in the area and found our website. After browsing our website, the homeowner was extremely impressed with our before and after photos and decided to schedule her FREE estimate.
In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Brad W., arrived at the home to answer any questions the homeowner had and to conduct a thorough inspection of the concrete. During his inspection, he explained to the homeowner that one of the common causes of settling concrete slabs is soil washout. When it rains or floods, water moves through the ground and washes away the supporting soils. For this reason, Brad recommended our PolyLevel to lift the walkway and steps, and NexusPro, to seal the joints and repair the cracks that have formed. After reviewing Brad's proposal, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.
In about a month, our Foreman, Patrick B., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They began by drilling small holes into the slab and installing the injection ports. PolyLevel is then injected, expanding beneath the slab and filling in the gaps in the soil. Once the slab has been lifted, the crew ensures it is even before sealing the holes with cement. Lastly, the crew uses NexusPro to seal the cracks and joints along the walkway. After the crew was done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Dan C. in Pepin, WI had severe water problems in the basement of his old farmhouse. Water was coming through the sandstone walls as well as the concrete floor. He contacted the waterproofing experts at American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Dustin Loftus to inspect his home and develop the right solution for his basement. He was pleased with the solution we recommended, so he scheduled to have our waterproofing system installed as soon as possible.
Our production crew removed the concrete around the perimeter of the basement floor as well as a thin line of concrete through the middle of the floor. They laid our WaterGuard drainage system, a lateral line, and a TripleSafe sump pump and then filled back the gaps in the floor with rock before replacing the concrete. Then, they installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier along the basement walls to keep moisture out and prevent from potential mold growth. Dan was pleased with the result and is now enjoying a dry, clean basement!

Jacquilynn L.'s concrete slab along the front of her house was sinking on one end. She had our Design Specialist, Mac, come out to her home and inspect the problem. Mac proposed our PolyLevel and NexusPro, both of which are two of the main concrete systems we provide for homeowners. Jacquilynn was confident in the products and their warranties, so they went ahead with the project.
Our Foreman, Troy, and his crew member injected 116 pounds of our PolyLevel and applied 26 feet of our NexusPro. Our PolyLevel is a special foam that fills the voids underneath the concrete and stabilizes the concrete surface. Our NexusPro is a sealant that prevents moisture from seeping underneath the cracks and it gives the concrete a neat appearance. The project was completed within three hours and Jacquilynn was satisfied with the work.

Cody C. in Nora Springs, IA had water leaking into his basement and did not have a functioning system in place to remove water from the home. He contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE inspection and estimate. Our Design Specialist, Mac Cole, went to his home to gain a better understanding of the issue Cody was facing. Mac developed a thorough plan to waterproof Cody's basement, and Cody was pleased with the proposal, so he scheduled the installation.
Our production team installed a full perimeter of our WaterGuard drainage system, a lateral line, and a TripleSafe sump pump. The drainage system and lateral line properly guide water to the sump pump, and from there the water is pushed through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Cody is happy that his basement has remained a dry space, and he is glad he chose American Waterworks to help protect his home.

Breanne and Benedict M. of Nora Springs, IA had a bowed foundation wall and water seeping through their walls, causing them to worry about the value and safety of their home. They called American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist team. Our Design Specialist went to their home, carefully inspected their problems, and drew out a solution that worked for them and their home repair needs. They were confident in our proposal and presentation, so they went ahead with the installation.
Our Foreman and his production team started the installation by installing our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the entire wall perimeter, which is made to prevent mold and mildew, and act as an extra wall protectant barrier. Next, our team installed our GeoLock Wall Anchors, which is a system that stabilizes basement walls, providing the best opportunity to straighten the walls without the disruption of foundation replacement. It also offers the potential to straighten the wall back to its original position. Breanne and Benedict were happy with the repairs and had a great experience from start to finish!
