Sunken Concrete Stairs Get Transformed in Minnetonka, MN

A homeowner from Minnetonka, MN, noticed that his front walkway was beginning to separate from his front step, causing an eyesore and, more importantly, a trip hazard. He decided to start the search for a company that could fix the issue. He saw one of our printed ads in a local magazine and decided to give us a call and claim his FREE estimate. A few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Mitch S, headed to the home to see what could be done. 

Once Mitch completed his walkthrough, he met with the homeowner and informed him that American Waterworks could address the sinking with the help of our PolyLevel solution. He explained that PolyLevel is a dense, polyurethane foam that expands when injected beneath sinking slabs, filling voids left by soil erosion and slowly lifting the concrete back into place. He finished by saying that we finish all of our concrete installs with our NexusPro. A silicone-based sealant, NexusPro gets applied to all cracks and joints in the concrete and works to prevent any unwanted moisture or debris from getting beneath the slab. The homeowner liked the sound of Mitch's plan, and a few weeks later the project began. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Ryan, and his team made quick work of the project. Now, our customer can enjoy a trip-free walkway!

Cracked Walkway Gets Lifted in Minnetonka, MN

A Minnetonka, MN, homeowner had been dealing with a sinking front walkway for a while, but the issue had gotten worse in the last year. The extreme soil washout below had caused a void to form below the slab, leading to the eventual crack of the concrete slab. This crack had resulted in a nasty trip hazard. The homeowner didn't want any guests or family members to take a tumble over the uneven concrete so he decided to take action. The homeowners had American Waterworks out to their homes to deal with an issue in previous years, so they called us up again to see if someone could come take a look at the concrete. 

A few weeks later, their original Design Specialist, Brian R, headed out to the home. Brian explained that we could address the sinking concrete with the help of our PolyLevel. He explained that PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that expands when it's injected beneath sinking concrete slabs. It fills voids left by soil erosion, and slowly lifts the sunken slabs back to their original position. Brian went on to say that he wanted to preserve the lift with the installation of our NexusPro, stating that NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant that gets applied to cracks and joints in the concrete. It has been specially designed to stand up against harsh weather conditions, ensuring the lift is protected. The homeowner liked the sound of Brian's plan and scheduled the job for several weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Troy J, and his team effortlessly completed the lift and seal. Now, our customer can have faith in his front walkway again!

Failing Foundation Gets Restored in Minnetonka, MN

A Minnetonka, MN, homeowner had been keeping an eye on his basement for some time. Over time, he had noticed large stair-step cracks forming on his wall. Not wanting the issue to get any worse, he went to google to search cracked foundation repair near me. After sifting through the results, he found the American Waterworks website, signed up for his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Darin S, headed out to the home. Darin recommended the use of our PowerBrace system. The PowerBrace™ is a patented foundation wall repair system that's designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. These steel I-beams will stabilize the wall in its current position without any further adjustment. Over time, the PowerBrace™ System can be tightened to make bowing or tilting walls straighter and more vertical. The homeowner agreed with Darin and scheduled the work for some time later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Jose C, and his team installed 16 of our PowerBraces throughout the basement. Now, our customer can enjoy her home knowing her foundation worries have been corrected!
