American Waterworks Before & After Photos

Gina W. in Elko New Market, MN was unhappy with her cracked and uneven driveway. She wanted it completely level and to have the cracks sealed. After researching concrete repair contractors and receiving estimates, she was pleased to learn that our PolyLevel foam injection is an effective, quick and more affordable alternative to traditional concrete repair, and she moved forward with the project.

Our concrete repair experts drilled small holes in the concrete slabs and then injected the polymer foam to raise the slabs to be even with the garage floor. Once the concrete was raised, the crew replaced the concrete in the holes and filled the cracks with our NexusPro sealant which protects the concrete and gives it a nice, finished look. The process took a couple of hours and now Gina can enjoy safe and beautiful concrete for years to come!

Gina W. of Elko New Market, MN had a sinking patio, and she wanted to get it lifted and repaired rather than broken out and replaced. She found American Waterworks on HomeAdvisor and requested a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist went to Gina's house, inspected her sunken patio, and proposed our PolyLevel and NexusPro. Gina was confident in the products and their features, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman and his crew injected 300 pounds of our PolyLevel to raise the patio and have it leveled with the home. Our crew then applied 42 feet of our NexusPro over the cracks to give the concrete and clean, polished finish. Both of these concrete systems are two of our most common methods of concrete repair.

Paul G. in Long Lake, MN had water leaking into the basement of his business. He was concerned that the air quality was being compromised and he did not want his customers to be affected by that. He was also concerned that his materials would get ruined since he used that space as storage. He contacted American Waterworks to learn more about our waterproofing system and to receive a FREE estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Chad Johnson, to his business to inspect the basement and design the right solution for his specific waterproofing needs. Paul was impressed with Chad’s thorough plan, so he scheduled to have our waterproofing system installed.

Our production team started the installation by removing the concrete around the perimeter of the basement floor. Then, they laid the WaterGuard drainage system and installed the SuperSump sump pump. They filled back the gaps with rock and then replaced the concrete. Lastly, they installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier system which protects the basement from moisture and potential mold growth. Water now properly flows through the drainage system to the sump pump, and from there the water is pushed through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Paul is glad he made the investment to protect his business for the long haul.

A customer from Long Lake, MN got in contact with us when they began to notice unwanted water entering the basement of their property and bowing walls. They had hopes of turning their basement into a live-able space and didn't want to have to worry about water damage. When they called in, they used their FREE estimate and had our Design Specialist, Eric, out to the property to assess the situation. When he completed his walkthrough he was able to make his recommendations. To address the water intrusion, Eric recommended two of our products that would work hand in hand. First, he wanted to drape the walls in our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, a plastic tarp-like material that gets tacked to the wall, catching any water entering through cracks and porous holes. As the water drains down the plastic barrier, it deposits into Eric's second recommendation, our WaterGuard french drainage system. This discreet drainage option sits below the concrete floor of the basement, collecting the water draining down the wall caught by the CleanSpace. It then works to funnel it to an external source. To address the foundation of the home, Eric recommended the use of our PowerBrace and GeoLock Anchors to address the bowing walls. He explained that the PowerBrace work to permanently stabilize the wall in its place, while the GeoLock anchors stabilize the wall by anchoring it to the virgin-packed soil beyond the foundation. Finally, to make it a live-able space, he recommended the use of our Egress window, which improves the energy efficiency of the space, while providing it with an up-to-code route for exit in case of emergency. 

Once the job was done, our customer was happy to know that their basement had been transformed and that they could continue with their renovations! 

A homeowner in Long Lake, MN, discovered a large crack growing on the garage foundation.

During their search, the homeowners came across our wonderful reviews and it caught their eye. The homeowner decided to visit our page and noticed our FREE estimates. Knowing this could provide them with some answers, the homeowner decided to go sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of Nick, one of our Design Specialists. Once Nick arrived, he began the in-depth examination of the foundation. Following his evaluation, Nick determined that the wall needed to be permanently stabilized. Nick proposed a solution that would solve all the homeowner's concerns and provide a long-term solution. After consideration, the homeowner agreed with Nick's plan and production commenced. Our Foreman, Jeremiah, and his crew arrived at the home to begin construction. First, the crew prepared the foundation for the GeoLock installation. GeoLocks is our innovative wall anchor system that permanently stabilizes your foundation walls by anchoring the walls to untouched soil beyond your foundation. Along the south wall, the crew installed five GeoLock anchors.  Once the GeoLocks were installed, the crew was able to clean up their job site. The homeowners were relieved to know that their wall was permanently stabilized and saved. American Waterworks is happy to provide our customers peace of mind.
