American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Mantorville, MN, noticed that his walkway had begun settling and caused cracks to form. Worried it would be a trip hazard for friends and family, he decided to look into concrete lifting and leveling in the area and found our website. After browsing our website and seeing that we offer FREE estimates, he decided to contact us and schedule his. 

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Darin S., arrived at the home to thoroughly inspect the concrete. During the inspection, he noticed that there was some soil washout underneath the slabs. He explained to the homeowner that soil washout is when water moves through the ground and washes away the supporting soils, keeping the slabs upright. To fix this issue, Darin recommended our PolyLevel, a waterproof expanding foam to lift the slabs, and NexusPro, a silicone-based sealant to seal the joints and repair the cracks. The homeowner happily agreed and scheduled the installation date. 

In about a month, Sam K., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. PolyLevel is installed by drilling small holes into the concrete slabs and inserting injection ports into the holes. PolyLevel is then injected using an injection gun, filling in the empty spaces in the soil. Once the slab has been lifted to the desired level, the crew seals the holes with cement. Lastly, they used NexusPro to seal the joints and repair cracks.

Steve P. in Wanamingo, MN had water leaking into his basement. He was concerned about the damage that it was causing to his home and was worried that the air quality was compromised, so he contacted American Waterworks for a free estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Pete Wangen, to his home to evaluate the situation and propose a unique solution to fit his needs and goals. Steve approved of the plan and moved forward with an installation date. 

The production crew got to work and installed WaterGuard around the perimeter of the room and a TripleSafe sump pump in the corner. Our TripleSafe is backed by three layers of protection and is our most reliable sump pump. The WaterGuard properly drains water to the sump pump and from there, the water is pumped through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Steve is glad he made the investment to protect his basement for the long-term.

The customer was concerned about water problems and a bowing foundation wall. American Waterworks was able to straighten the wall, waterproof the foundation, and apply a vapor barrier.

The weight and pressure from the concrete was causing this slab to sink. This Elma, IA homeowner decided to call American Waterworks to fix it!

Our design specialist suggested PolyLevel foam injection to raise the concrete. PolyLevel is inserted through a small hole to fill under the sinking area. Polymer materials fill the space and slowly expand to raise the concrete back to its original state. 

These homeowners were so pleased with the outcome! 

A homeowner in Elma, IA was tired of dealing with the large bump that had formed in between his driveway and the garage floor. Over time it had sunk which resulted in this problem and had become an issue for his car and more recently he noticed it was a safety hazard when he tripped on it. Not wanting the problem to get worse, he was determined to go online and find a solution. He searched for "how to fix sinking driveway" and was surprised with how many results showed up. He ended up going with American Waterworks because of our FREE estimate appointments and on the day of his estimate was greeted by one of our Design Specialists. The Design Specialist explained that our PolyLevel product was the best solution for the situation because it was strong enough to lift the concrete back up and less expensive than replacing the whole driveway. The homeowner agreed and later our Foreman, Troy Johnson, and his crew arrived at the site for the installation. They injected the PolyLevel foam and also filled in the empty joints with NexusPro for a smooth finish. The homeowner was excited to have a bump-free driveway again and thanked our crew for their work.
