American Waterworks Before & After Photos

In Blooming Prairie, MN a homeowner was frustrated with the concrete apron outside of her garage. Every time she drove in and out, the wheels hit the large bump that had formed from the concrete sinking over the years. She decided to not let the problem last any longer and was determined to find a solution. During her search, she found the American Waterworks website and learned about the products and services we offered. Once she found out about our FREE no-obligation estimate service, she knew it was the best choice for her. She signed up for her own free estimate and was later greeted by one of our Design Specialists, Dylan Woitas. Dylan carried out a detailed inspection of the concrete apron and knew exactly what the best solution was. He explained that our PolyLevel solution was designed to tackle concrete problems like hers and lift the slabs back up to their original height. The homeowner was glad to hear that something could be done and agreed to the installation. On the scheduled project day, one of our Foremen, Jordan Simonson, and his crew visited the site and injected the PolyLevel underneath the concrete until it was back to a normal height. The homeowner was thrilled with the results and with our team's work.

A Blooming Prairie, MN, homeowner had been keeping an eye on his basement walls for some time now. Over the years, the homeowner had noticed several cracks in the home's foundation, and as time progressed, the cracks continued to worsen, raising his concern for his home. The homeowner had no idea who handled foundation repair MN, but decided to confide in some of his friends and family about his concerns. On the recommendation of one of his friends, he decided to call American Waterworks and schedule his FREE estimate. Several weeks later, Ryan M, one of our Design Specialists, headed out to the home. 

When Ryan arrived, he wasted no time heading down to the basement to see what could be done. When he finished his walkthrough, he met with the homeowner to deliver his recommendations. Ryan informed the homeowner that foundation walls are designed to withstand pressure from above, not the sides. So when the amount of pressure from the side becomes more than the wall can bear, homeowners will see cracking, bowing, tilting in at the top, or sliding in at the bottom. For this reason, Ryan recommended our C-Channel anchor foundation repair system. Ryan explained that these anchors counteract the pressure from the side by anchoring the failing wall to the undisturbed soil beyond the foundation. Channel Anchors are versatile, effective systems 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's time or less. The homeowner liked the sound of Ryan's plan and signed on the spot. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Francisco E, led his team through the successful installation of 17 C-Channel anchors throughout the basement. Now our customer is thrilled to know that his foundation issues are in the past!

A homeowner in Blooming Prairie, MN, noticed their front walkway was sinking due to settlement. Worried this issue could worsen, the homeowner looked into "concrete leveling services near me". One of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks, so the homewoner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of our Design Specialist, Tony. A few days later, Tony traveled to the home to begin the thorough inspection. During the inspection, Tony confirmed that several areas were suffering from settlement. To prevent the settlement from continuing, Tony recommended lifting and leveling the sidewalk using PolyLevel, a polyurthane foam injection solution. The homeowner agreed and worked with Tony to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, Jordan and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Jordan and his crew began by inserting PolyLevel, a polyurthane foam injection solution, below the sinking slabs. Once the PolyLevel was inserted, the crew shifted to repairing the joints and cracks with NexusPro, a silicone-based solution. Once all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. American Waterworks is happy to repair its customers' damaged concrete. 

A Blooming Prairie, MN, homeowner  was growing worried about his basement. After every storm, the homeowner noted patches of standing water in his basement. The homeowner worried that the basement leaks could be a sign of a bigger issue, so he decided to take action. Having no idea who fixes leaking basement, he began to look for water basement repair in the area, and quickly found American Waterworks. Impressed with our 4.8/5 star rating, he decided to claim his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Michel R, was headed to the home. 

When Michel arrived, he dove into his inspection, paying close attention to the areas of the basement which showed evidence of past water intrusion. When Michel was satisfied, he sat down with the homeowner to go over his findings. Michel began by stating that the homeowner did the right things by contacting us, explaining that when it comes to basement leaks, addressing the issues right away helps catch issues before they become larger problems and more expensive. Michel continued, stating that we offer a variety of water in the basement solutions, but in this case, he was recommending only three. First, Michel wanted to use our WaterGuard, our basement french drain system. This unique drain is desecrate, sitting below the floor of the basement, but atop the footing of the foundation, keeping it out of the 'mud-zone' where similar drains tend to clog. It works to provide water entering through the floor a channel to flow freely to a disposal site. Second, Michel recommended our CleanSpace vapor barrier; a 100% waterproof plastic vapor barrier, perfect for finished basement walls. The CleanSpace is installed directly onto the wall, and fed into the CleanSpace, giving water trickling down basement walls a channel to the WaterGuard and then a disposal site. Finally, Michel recommended our TripleSafe sump pump, the most reliable system in our lineup, providing three levels of protection for your home. While in the basement, Michel also noted that one of the walls appeared to be bowing inward, a clear indicator of foundation failure. Michel informed the homeowner that foundation walls are designed to withstand the weight of your home from above, and not from the side. When side pressure on the wall becomes too much for the walls to withstand, it's not uncommon to see bowing or tilting. Michel recommended our GeoLock wall anchors. This award-winning system counteracts bowing walls by anchoring it to the hard-packed undisturbed soil beyond the foundation. The homeowner was pleased with Michel's evaluation and recommendations, but wasn't planning on a foundation repair, so he decided to ponder his options. A few weeks later, the homeowner called Michel with another set of questions, and when he felt they were properly answered, he scheduled his project. 

A month or two later, our Foreman, Victor S, and his team effortlessly installed 43 sqft of WaterGuard and CleanSpace, 1 TripleSafe Sump Pump, and 7 GeoLock anchors throughout the basement. Now our customer can lay his worries for his basement to rest knowing his basement is properly defended!
