Ian from Victoria, MN, gave us a call when he noticed a sizable gap forming between some of the concrete slabs making up the walkway to his home. Ian feared that if the concrete kept sinking it would create even more of a tripping hazard, making for a potentially dangerous situation. When he called in, we set Ian up with our FREE estimate, which entitled him to a thorough inspection of the issue. Our Design Specialist, Jarrett, headed out to the property to assess the situation, and when he was finished, made his recommendation as to how we could help fix Ian's issue. Jarrett explained to Ian that he could be experiencing settling for numerous reasons, but the culprit was the soil beneath. Jarrett wanted to use our PolyLevel injection to lift and level the concrete back to its former state. Ian agreed and work began shortly after. Our Foreman, Troy, and his crew began the project by strategically drilling holes into the concrete slabs. Next, they injected the PolyLevel, an expanding polyurethane foam. Then, they monitored the lifting process, ensuring that the slab got back to its original position. The process was quick, and the concrete was ready to be walked on almost immediately after.
When the project was done Ian was happy to see that the tripping hazards had been eliminated and that his concrete would stay in place for a long time to come.
A homeowner in Victoria, MN, did not like the look of cracks growing throughout their driveway. Knowing it is best to have a professional complete the task, the homeowner sought professional assistance. During their search, the homeowner came across our work on social media and was impressed. The homeowner decided to call our Appointment Center and sign up for a FREE estimate. Once the appointment was set, we sent one of our Service Technicians, Jack, to the home to investigate the status of the driveway. After surveying the driveway, Jack provided a quick and cost-effective solution for the homeowners. Once they heard Jack's suggestions, the homeowners agreed and the plans were sent to the crew. Our Foreman, Troy, and his crew arrived at the home and began concrete leveling. The crew first focused on repairing the cracks throughout the driveway. To fill these cracks, the crew utilized NexusPro Crack Repair. Once all the cracks were filled, the crew shifted their focus to the joint near the garage. The crew took over all the old joints and replaced them with the Nexus Pro Joint Sealant. Finally, the crew cleaned their site and moved on to their next job. The homeowner was pleased with the job completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to complete another job with a satisfied customer.
Bill L. in Saint Ansgar, WI had a bowing wall in his basement, so he started looking into repair options. While researching foundation repair, he came across American Waterworks’ website. He contacted us to receive a free estimate, so we sent one of our Design Specialists, Pete Wangen, to his home to inspect his foundation and provide him with a solution. Pete recommended that we install wall anchors to permanently stabilize Bill’s foundation wall. Bill agreed and was pleased with the proposal that Pete developed, so he scheduled the installation.
Our production team drilled small holes in the wall and inserted long metal rods. The metal rods extend through the wall and into the soil outside of the home. Then, the rod is secured with metal plates on each end. They tighten the anchors and the wall starts to straighten and stabilize. The anchors can be tightened over time so that the foundation wall gradually becomes straighter and straighter. Our wall anchors are guaranteed for a lifetime, so Bill is glad he chose the right solution to secure his home for the long-term.

Pete and Heather R. of Saint Ansgar, IA had a wet and musty crawl space, causing them to consider the value of their home. They got in contact with our office staff and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Rick. Rick went to their home, carefully inspected their crawl space, and drew up a few different solutions that Pete and Heather could choose from. They were confident in Rick's proposal of our CleanSpace Encapsulation Moisture Barrier and our FoamMax Wall Panels, so they signed Rick's contract and went ahead with the project.
Our Foreman, Kiko, and his crew started the installation by installing 740 square feet of our CleanSpace Moisture Barrier around the entire crawl space. This moisture barrier keeps the crawl space dry and protects the structure and insulation from rot and mold. Next, our team installed our FoamMax Wall Panels around the crawl space wall perimeter. Our FoamMax provides comfort to the home, saves money on energy bills, and makes the space look neat and bright. Pete and Heather could not believe the transformation from start to finish, and had a great experience working with our team!
