Basement Wall Gets Stabilized in Minneapolis, MN

A homeowner from Minneapolis, MN was beginning to notice a large crack forming on the walls of their basement. Not wanting to risk more damage being done, they began to do their research about companies that could help with the issue. Once they came across American Waterworks, they called in and we set them up with our FREE, no-obligation estimate. A few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Rick Weber, headed out to the home to see what we could do to help. Upon completion of the inspection, Rick was ready to make his recommendations. He wanted to use our C-Channel and Geo-Lock Anchors to correct the problem. Rick explained that channel anchors are a versatile, effective system that can stabilize walls that are bowing, tipping, pushing in at the bottom, tilting in at the top, or showing similar signs of failure. They are installed with minimal disturbance to your lawn and landscaping, often in a day or less. The homeowner agreed with Rick's recommendation and work began a few weeks later. 

Our Foreman, Victor, and his team installed 12 anchors throughout the basement. When the project was completed, the homeowner was happy to know they no longer had to worry about foundation failure compromising their home!

Sunken Concrete Stairs Get a Lift in Plymouth, MN

A homeowner in Plymouth, MN, was growing more and more frustrated with the concrete in front of her house. Her concrete stairs leading up to her front door were beginning to sink, creating a trip hazard and an eyesore. Not wanting to sacrifice safety or curb appeal, the homeowner decided to begin researching companies in the area that could help. When she came across our website, she decided to take advantage of our FREE estimates, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Daniel R, headed out to the home. 

Once Daniel completed his inspection, he met with the homeowner to give her his recommendation. He informed her that American Waterworks could address the sinking with our PolyLevel method. PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that expands when injected beneath sinking slabs, filling voids left by soil erosion and slowly lifting concrete back into place. Daniel went on to say that we finished our lifting process with the installation of our NexusPro. A silicone-based sealant, NexusPro gets applied directly to the cracks and joints in the slab being lifted, preventing unwanted elements from permeating the slab. The homeowner agreed with the proposed work and the job was scheduled for a month later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Sam K, and his team were able to complete the lift to our customer's satisfaction. Now our homeowner can rest easy knowing her curb appeal and safety have been restored!

Concrete Settlement in Minneapolis, MN Lifted

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN, was concerned that his sinking concrete walkway had gotten to the point where it was a trip hazard for friends and family. wanting to address the issue, the homeowner began searching for concrete contractors in Minneapolis, MN, and found us. After looking over our website and becoming impressed by our reviews and walkway transformations, the homeowner contacted us to schedule her FREE estimate. 

In about a week, our Design Specialist, Gary S., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, Gary confirmed with the homeowner that the cause of their sunken concrete slabs is soil washout. Soil washout is the process in which water moves through the ground and washes away supporting soil. Over time, gaps and voids are created, and the slabs sink. To effectively fix this issue, Gary recommended PolyLevel, our modern solution that prevents homeowners from going through the troubles of mudjacking or slab replacement. PolyLevel is made of a polyurethane foam that expands once injected beneath concrete slabs, allowing for accurate lifting. Along with PolyLevel, Gary also recommended NexusPro, our silicone-based sealant to repair cracks and seal the joints. The homeowner happily agreed to Gary's recommendations and decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Patrick B., and his crew arrived at the home to carry out the installation. The crew began drilling small holes into the slabs. Then, PolyLevel is injected, filling in the voids in the soil and causing the slabs to lift. Once lifted to the desired height, the crew seals the holes. Next, they move on to installing NexusPro to repair cracks that have formed and to seal the joints.
