American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Madison Lake, MN noticed that his driveway and walkway were facing multiple concrete issues so he decided to look into concrete lifting in the area. He saw one of our yard signs around the neighborhood and decided to contact us to schedule his FREE estimate. 

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Ryan P., arrived at the home to conduct a thorough inspection of both the driveway and walkway. During his inspection, he noticed that there were multiple cracks along the walkway as well as the garage apron, where the garage and driveway meet. Ryan then created a solution for the homeowner and recommended our PolyLevel to lift the concrete slabs along the walkway and top of the driveway, and NexusPro to seal the joints and repair the cracks. After reviewing Ryan's proposal, the homeowner happily agreed to his recommendations and decided to move forward with the project. Ryan's design was then sent to our Foreman, Patrick B.

In about a month, Patrick and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They began lifting the concrete slabs along the walkway and top driveway by first drilling small holes in the slabs. The injection ports are then installed, and PolyLevel is injected beneath the slab, filling in empty spaces in the soil. Once the slabs have been lifted, the crew ensures it is level before sealing the holes with concrete. Lastly, the crew uses NexusPro to repair the cracks along the walkway and the garage apron as well as sealing the joint. Once they were done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Now, our customer can have peace of mind with his walkway and driveway smooth and crack-free! Have you noticed concrete damage on your property? Click HERE and schedule your FREE estimate today!

Bruce A. in Le Sueur, MN noticed that the apartment he was living in was starting to sink. After further investigation, he realized the foundation was settling, so he asked his property manager what the best course of action would be. They got in touch with American Waterworks to learn more about foundation repair and receive a FREE estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialist's to inspect the apartment complex and he determined that installing piers was the best option to repair the foundation. 

Our crew removed the concrete in the garage and under specific areas in the home and dug out the soil. They placed piers under the foundation and drilled them deep into the soil until they hit competent, supporting soil. The installation took a couple of days, but now the property management company will never have to worry about that foundation failing.

Arik M. in Freeborn, MN had a bowing wall in his garage. He was concerned about the pressure this was putting on his foundation, so he contacted the foundation repair experts at American Waterworks. We sent a Design Specialist to inspect his garage and provide him with a free estimate. After the inspection, our Specialist recommended that we install wall anchors to straighten and stabilize the wall. Arik felt that our solution was the best fit for his needs, so he decided to move forward with the project.

Our crew installed the wall anchors by drilling long, metal rods through the wall and then securing both ends of the rods with anchor plates. Our anchors are designed to install quickly and with minimal disruption to the home and landscaping. They are designed with galvanized steel, which allows for long-term corrosion resistance. Arik’s peace of mind has been restored knowing that his foundation wall is now permanently secure.

Rolf, a homeowner in Waubun, MN, realized that his crawl space needed some attention. A number of comfort and energy problems are caused by inadequate or incorrect crawl space insulation. Specifically, with musty smells, mold, and moisture issues, Rolf decided he needed to call American Waterworks for a FREE Estimate. Our Design Specialist, Kole, headed to the property for an inspection. Following the inspection, Kole made his recommendations and answered all questions, and Rolf made an appointment to implement solutions.

 Our Foreman and his crew began the project by clearing debris and readying the spaces for installation. They then went to work installing our CleanSpace vapor barrier to address water Issues. CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof plastic barrier that gets installed right onto the problem walls, and works to catch water entering the space through cracks and holes in the wall. This also reduces the home's chances of being exposed to radon. The crew also used spray foam to seal and waterproof the homeowner's crawl space. Our spray foam is designed to keep the heat inside and prevent cool air from coming in. Rolf was grateful for the support and guidance of American Waterworks in protecting his home!

A homeowner in Waubun, MN, thought it was a good idea to get the radon in their home tested. Once the test was complete, the results showed a high amount of radon. The worried homeowner searched for a solution for this potentially dangerous issue. After thorough research, the homeowner discovered that American Waterworks installed radon mitigation systems. The homeowner went to our website and signed up for a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist, Kole, traveled to the property and introduced himself to the homeowners. Then, Kole inspected the home's exterior to determine where the radon mitigation system would be installed. Once the placement was determined, Kole drew up a solution and received approval from the homeowners. The plans were sent to the crew and they were set out to the home. After they arrived, the crew entered the crawl space to begin the installation process. The crew began by extracting the crawl space entrance and running pipes into the crawl space while extracting as well. Additionally, the crew installed a fan on the North side of the crawlspace. They successfully installed the radon mitigation system in the home. The homeowner was grateful to know they do not run the risk of high radon levels in their home. American Waterworks is pleased to provide another homeowner peace of mind.
