Basement Gets Waterproofed in Minneapolis, MN

In Minneapolis, MN a homeowner was concerned when she was in her basement space and noticed a good amount of water damage on the concrete floors. She was relieved that the basement was unfinished and didn't damage the space too much, but still wanted to prevent the issue from growing over time. She found the American Waterworks website in her search of waterproofing solutions and was interested in our FREE estimate services. She signed up for her own and once we received the request, sent over Design Specialist Dylan Woitas. Dylan carried out a detailed inspection of the basement space and suggested that to stop the current water intake for good, installing a WaterGuard system would be the best solution. The homeowner trusted his judgement and agreed to move forward with the process. When Foreman Arturo Mares and his crew arrived at the site, they made sure to talk the homeowner through the project and answer any questions before starting. Then, they installed the WaterGuard system, which works by intercepting water at the perimeter of the basement and sends it away safely to the sump pump. The homeowner was pleased with the results and thanked our crew for their hard work.

Concrete Stairs Get Lifted and Leveled in Minneapolis, MN

A customer from Minneapolis got in contact with us when he began to notice that his front steps were beginning to sink. He knew that if he left it alone, the issue would continue to worsen, creating a tripping hazard and becoming more costly to fix down the road. When he called in, he claimed his FREE estimate and our Design Specialist headed out to the property. Once there, he completed a thorough inspection into the issue and then made his recommendations as to how we could help. He recommended the use of our PolyLevel injected, followed by sealing the cracks and joints with our NexusPro solution. He explained that the PolyLevel is an expanding polyurethane foam that has a quick curing time and is much less invasive than alternative methods. He went on to say that the NexusPro works to seal all cracks and joints to prevent any further water from getting under the slab. The customer agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our PolyLevel production team, led by Dylon, began the process by strategically drilling holes into the problem slab. Next, they inserted the PolyLevel and closely monitored the lifting process to ensure the slab returned to its previous state. Once done, the customer was happy to know her tripping hazard had been eliminated!

Concrete Walkway Sinking in Brooklyn Center, MN

A homeowner in Brooklyn Center, MN, had taken one tumble too many over uneven concrete on the walkway in front of her home. Wanting to avoid any more accidents, the homeowner decided to take advantage of our FREE estimates, and a few weeks later our Design Specialist headed out to the home. 

Once the inspection was complete, our Design Specialist informed the homeowner that her concrete could be a simple fix. He recommended the use of our PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam that expands when it's injected beneath concrete, filling voids caused by soil erosion and slowly lifting the concrete back to its desired position. He went on to say that our process is finished by installing our NexusPro along cracks and joints of the concrete to ensure that no unwanted water or debris penetrates the slab, compromising the slab. The homeowner agreed, and work began a few weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Dylon, made quick work of the installation. Now our customer can use their front walkway without worries of tripping! 

Damp Basement Gets a Sump Pump in Brooklyn Center, MN

A homeowner from Brooklyn Center, MN, was growing frustrated over her leaky basement. She had a waterproofing system in place already, but she feared her old sump was having trouble keeping up, because each time it rained, her basement corners would floor. Not wanting any of the children in the home to get to the dirty water, she decided to begin her search for a MN  basement waterproofing company. When she found our website, she decided to sign up for her FREE estimate, and a few weeks later,  Ryan P, one of our Design Specialists, headed to her home.

After Ryan completed his inspection, he informed the homeowner that American Waterworks could help fix the issue. Ryan wanted to install our SuperSump sump pump. The SuperSump is an effective and economical solution to fighting unwanted water. It's engineered to help keep the basement dry and healthy for extended periods, even during times of heavy water intrusion. The SuperSump boasts a powerful Zoller 1/3 horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement. Ryan finished by saying that the sump pump could be connected to the existing system. The homeowner was thrilled to hear the news, and scheduled the job for several weeks later. 

The next month, our waterproofing team headed out to her home. Led by their Foreman, Kevin M, the team successfully placed a SuperSump, and attached it to the pre-existing system. Now our customer can enjoy her basement without worries of water!

Minneapolis, MN, Sinking Walkway Lifted

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN, disliked the look of their sinking, uneven concrete walkway. Hoping to avoid total concrete replacement, the homeowner began looking into "concrete repair near me". At the top of the recommendations stood American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Speicalist, Gary. The following week, Gary promptly arrived at the home and began the thorough inspection of the exterior concrete. During his inspection, Gary confirmed the concrete was sinking due to settlement. To prevent this issue from worsening, Gary recommended lifting and leveling the sidewalk back into place. Knowing this was the best plan of action, the homeowner agreed and worked with Gary to find the best installation date. When the installation date was selected, our Foreman, Bryce, and his crew were assigned to complete the project. First, Bryce and his crew began by installing PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam, below the sinking slabs. Once the PolyLevel was secured, the crew shifted to filling the cracks and joints with NexusPro, a silicone-based solution. Once all the products were secured, Bryce and his crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. American Waterworks is happy to repair its customers' sinking walkways and sidewalks.
