American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A homeowner from Arlington, MN got in contact with us when they learned of hazardous radon gas and wanted to have their home tested to make sure the air they were breathing was healthy. They searched for a company that deals with Radon and came across our website. They decided to take advantage of our FREE, no-obligation estimate into the issue. A few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Kevin, headed out to the property to assess the situation. Part of Kevin's visit was leaving a Radon test kit in the basement of the home. Once the Radon test kit had sat in the basement long enough, the sample was sent in for evaluation. The numbers can back reading 12.7 pCi/L, which is extremely high. The EPA recommends taking action on any radon levels over 4 pCi/L. Kevin let the homeowners know that while the numbers were high, our Radon mitigation system would bring those numbers way down to inhabitable conditions. He went on to say that the mitigation system works to pull radon from the home, piping it upwards, and expelling it out through the top of the home, and out and away from the house. The homeowners agreed and work began a few weeks later. 

Our Foreman, Geno, and his team make quick work of the installation. Once the job was completed, the homeowner was thrilled to know that they could take a breath of relief with clean air.

Bill L. in Eagle Lake, MN had a sunken concrete patio. His deck was on top of the patio, and the uneven concrete made his deck slanted and regrettably unenjoyable. He was interested in our PolyLevel concrete repair option, so he contacted American Waterworks for a FREE estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Ryan Powell, to evaluate the situation and propose a solution. Bill was happy to learn that PolyLevel is a more durable and less-invasive alternative to traditional concrete replacement or mudjacking, so he scheduled the installation. 

Our Foreman, Dylon Mish, drilled pencil-sized holes into the concrete slabs where the foam needed to be injected to effectively raise and level the patio. Then, he injected the foam until the slabs were a completely level surface. Lastly, he filled the cracks in the concrete with our Nexus Pro sealant. Bill was amazed at the transformation, and he is glad he will now be able to enjoy an even patio and deck for many years to come.

A homeowner in Eagle Lake, MN was tired of dealing with her cracked garage floor and was looking for a change.

Jayne S. in Joice, IA contacted American Waterworks after being referred to us by a current customer. She had some concrete slabs that had settled in front of her home. She was concerned that water was being guided toward her home, and she was interested in our PolyLevel lifting and leveling solution to repair the concrete. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Kevin Beseman, to meet with Jayne and evaluate the situation. Jayne was happy to learn that our Poly Level option is a faster, more durable, and affordable alternative to mudjacking or total concrete replacement.

Our Foreman, Trevor Ellingson, and Co-Foreman, Brevyn Kirkpatrick, drilled pencil-sized holes into the concrete slabs that needed to be raised. Then, they injected the PolyLevel foam until the concrete was raised and leveled. Lastly, they filled the cracks in the concrete with our Nexus Pro sealant. The process was non-invasive, and it only took a couple of hours. Jayne is glad she will be able to enjoy a level walkway for years to come!

Jim, a Grey Eagle, MN homeowner, had bowing walls in his garage that needed stabilizing. After looking at what American Waterworks does, he scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Shane. Shane went to the home to inspect the problem and devise a solution. After thoroughly examining, Shane explained that water-saturated soil can sometimes exert enough pressure to cause foundation walls to bow, bulge, or tilt. Shane suggested that Jim invest in Power Braces to permanently stabilize the wall and SmartJacks to restore and straighten sagging floor joists to combat this. Jim was confident in Shane's proposal and went ahead with the project. 

Our crew, led by Foreman Matthew, headed to the property shortly after and got to work. First, they installed 1 7'10' SmartJacks. The SmartJack system restores stability and straightens sagging floor joists, which can be adjusted over time to provide additional straightening and leveling if necessary. Next, the team installed 11 of our PowerBraces to repair the failing wall. Our PowerBraces are designed to straighten walls and can be tightened by the homeowner over time to ensure the walls stay straight. Since this system has a special zinc coating, corrosion is not an issue. Our PowerBraces can be installed with no disruption to outside soils or landscaping. It installs quickly in the home, immediately halting the inward movement of foundation walls. Jim was impressed with the project's efficiency and quality of work, and he was glad to know that his bowing wall was no longer an issue.
