Foundation Wall Repair in Burnsville, MN

Kent J. of Burnsville, MN had a bowing foundation wall, making him worry about the stability of his home. He knew of American Waterworks, so he called our office line and scheduled a FREE estimate with one of our Design Specialists. Our Design Specialist went to Kent's home and inspected the wall to figure out the best solution. Our Design Specialist proposed our Wall Anchor System, which is a system that stabilizes foundation walls by anchoring the wall to the compact soil beyond the foundation. Kent was confident in the product and its warranty, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman and his production team began the project by digging holes outside of the home beyond the foundation. From the interior foundation, our team installed a long, metal rod through the wall to each hole outside of the home. Each anchor is connected by the rod to a wall plate, which provides the pressure needed to straighten the foundation wall. Over time, homeowners can tighten their anchors with a torque wrench to ensure the system is sticking to its design. To complete the installation, our crew backfilled each hole outside of the home and ensured the yard was neater than they found it. Kent was happy with the work that was performed and had a great experience from appointment to installation!

CarbonArmor Supports Wall in Burnsville, MN

Brett from Burnsville, MN found out his foundation was in jeopardy when he noticed cracks that were being created by the bowing of the foundation wall. Brett started to worry about the structure of his home and was looking for a cost-effective solution. Brett then contacted the Appointment Center at American Waterworks and schedule his FREE estimate which entitled Brett to a free home inspection by our Design Specialist. Once the appointment was scheduled, the Design Specialist headed out to Brett's home to conduct a thorough inspection to provide Brett with the best solution to solve his problems and prevent the wall from bowing any further. Our Design Specialist proposed to Brett that the best solution to prevent any further bowing of the wall is our CarbonArmor solution. The CarbonArmor is a carbon fiber strap that goes alongside the wall and stabilizes the foundation and is attached to the wall with a special epoxy. The CarbonArmor strengthens due to the pressure that is applied to it. Brett agrees with the proposition and proceeds with the project. Once the installation date was scheduled, our foreman Chris Newton proceeded to install four CarbonArmor straps alongside the issue wall. Brett was impressed with the quick installation and the cost of the proceeding, and his peace of mind was restored knowing that he did not have to worry about the foundation of his home!!

Garage Floor Cracks Filled in Burnsville, MN

A homeowner in Burnsville, MN, noticed their driveway was uneven and had large cracks spread throughout. Knowing this would not be a do-it-yourself fix, the homeowner began searching for a professional to come to their home to take a look. While comparing several concrete lifting and leveling companies, the homeowner came across examples of our past concrete work. Impressed with our previous repairs, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate on our website. Once the appointment was set, we sent out one of our Design Specialists, Michel, to perform the estimate. Once the estimation was complete, Michel recommended a solution for the homeowners. After going through all their options, the homeowner followed through with Michel's plans. The plans were sent to the assigned crew to begin the repair process. Our Foreman, Dylon, and his crew arrived at the property to begin the lifting and leveling process. To lift and level the concrete, the crew utilized the PolyLevel. Instead of ripping up the concrete and laying down new, the PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam injection solution that restores the appearance and safety of concrete without the mess and cost. Once the concrete was properly leveled and lifted,  the crew could fill all the cracks spread throughout the garage floor. To fill the cracks, the crew utilized the NexusPro Sealant. The NexusPro Sealant is not affected by extreme temperatures, is long-lasting, and can be installed all year round. After all the cracks were repaired, the crew cleaned up their job site and left the home. The homeowners were thankful for all of the repairs completed by the crew. American Waterworks prides itself on our hard work for our dedicated customers. 

Pool Deck Gets New Look in Burnsville, MN

A homeowner in Burnsville, MN was prepping his backyard pool area for the upcoming summer months when he realized just how worn down the sealant on his pool deck was. It had faded over time and formed small cracks and holes, easily allowing water splashed from the pool or rain to enter and damage his concrete. He decided to make a change and get the pool deck back to pristine condition. During his search of companies in the area that work with concrete sealing, he found the American Waterworks website. He signed up for a FREE estimate with us and we sent over one of our Design Specialists, Kyle Peters. Kyle explained that we had the perfect product that would eliminate the homeowner's concerns and get the pool deck in shape for summer: NexusPro. The homeowner agreed to the plans and was eager for the project to be complete. When Foreman Reese Rinken and his crew arrived at the site, they installed the durable, silicone-based sealant carefully in the joints. The pool deck was ready to be in use again and the homeowner was pleased with the outcome of our crew's work.

Walkway Lifted and Leveled in Burnsville, MN

A homeowner in Burnsville, MN, had noticed that her sidewalk had been uneven and was beginning to sink in some parts. She wanted to tackle the issue right away before it could worsen and decided to search for "Concrete leveling repair near me" and came upon our website. After browsing our website and growing impressed with our 5-star reviews as well as our "Before and After" photos, she decided to contact us to schedule her FREE estimate. 

Our Design Specialist, Mitch S., arrived at the home in a couple of weeks and immediately inspected the issue. He explained to the homeowner that it is common to see sinking concrete due to soil washout. When it heavily rains or floods, the water moves through the ground underneath the concrete slab. The water then washes away the supporting soils that are holding the concrete up. He informed the homeowner that this issue could be fixed using our PolyLevel to lift the concrete and NexusPro to seal the joints and cracks. Our PolyLevel is our most effective and long-lasting solution to lifting concrete as it is made of a high-density polyurethane formula that will expand in the voids and spaces underneath the concrete slab. Additionally, our NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant with long-lasting durability that is able to withstand harsh weather conditions. The homeowner was pleased with Mitch's suggestion and decided to move forward with his plans. 

In about a month, our Foreman, Sam K., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They lift the concrete by first drilling small holes into the slab. Injection ports are then installed, and the PolyLevel is injected beneath the concrete. Once the concrete slabs have been lifted and leveled out, the holes are sealed with concrete. Once they were done installing the PolyLevel, they began using NexusPro to seal the joints and cracks. After everything had been completed, the crew cleaned up their equipment and left the home.
