American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Apple Valley, MN was concerned when she noticed the cracks along her garage floor have grown. Worried it would be a trip hazard to her family, she decided to search for "cracked concrete garage repair" and found our website. After browsing our website, she was impressed with our before and after transformations and decided to schedule her FREE estimate. 

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Mitch S., arrived at the home to inspect the garage and walkway. He noticed that the front steps of the walkway had begun sinking and provided a solution for the homeowner. Mitch recommended our PolyLevel to lift the garage flooring and the walkway as well as our NexusPro to seal the joints and repair the cracks. After reviewing Mitch's proposal the homeowner decided to move forward with the project. 

In about two months, our Foreman, Troy J, and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They lifted the concrete by drilling small holes into the concrete slap and placing the injection ports. PolyLevel is then injected beneath the slab, filling in the space between the soil. Once the slab has been lifted, the crew ensures it is level before sealing the holes with concrete. Lastly, the crew used NexusPro along the joints of the walkway and to repair the cracks in the garage. Both PolyLevel and NexusPro are highly durable and last a long time. After the crew was done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

A local American Legion in St. Paul, MN, worried their uneven concrete was going to become a major trip hazard. Hoping to repair the issue in the spring, the homeowner began looking for a company that could provide them with answers. The manager looked into "repair sunken concrete sidewalk" and began sifting through several companies. After looking through several options, the homeowner was impressed with our eye-catching before-and-afters. Knowing that we were the ideal company to work with, the manager decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the manager awaited the arrival of our Design Specialist, Dave. A few weeks later, Dave arrived at the home and started the thorough inspection of the exterior concrete. During the inspection, Dave noted that several slabs were sinking due to settlement. To stop the settlement from continuing, Dave recommended lifting and leveling the sidewalk back into place. Knowing this was their best plan of action, the manager decided to go ahead with the recommended solution. Next, Dave sent the solution to our Logisitics team to give the final stamp of approval. Once the plans were given the green light, our Logisitics team assigned the project to our Foreman, Troy. A few weeks later, Tory and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Troy and his crew began by inserting PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam injection solution, underneath the sinking slabs. Once all the slabs were lifted back to their original level, the crew shifted to inserting NexusPro in the cracks and joints of the sidewalk. NexusPro is a silicone-based solution that can withstand harsh weather conditions. Once all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The manager was given peace of mind knowing their concrete was properly lifted and secured. American Waterworks is happy to eliminate trip hazards for its homeowners. 

A homeowner in Eagan, MN was alarmed to find water damage in her basement space. She wanted to find a solution for it sooner than later, to prevent any more problems from happening. One of her neighbors had also dealt with water-related issues and American Waterworks was the company that helped them out. She decided to contact them as well for a FREE no-obligation estimate to see what they could do for her own situation. We sent over Design Specialist Adam Voigt to inspect the area, see what the root of the water damage was, and present recommendations. Adam informed the homeowner that the main issue was the current sump pump was not able to keep up with the amount of water that was entering through the foundation and would continue if left unattended to. He suggested to her that a SuperSump Plus pump system would be able to keep up with pumping the water that was entering. Our Foreman, Chris Newton, and his crew arrived at the site to carry out the installation of the SuperSump Plus system and a discharge line to carry the water from the inside pump to outside of the home. The homeowner was relieved to have a water-free basement again and grateful for our services.

An Eagan, MN,  homeowner was chatting with her neighbor one day when she learned that her neighbor had their home tested for radon gas. She did not know the dangers of radon gas but decided to find a radon mitigation specialist in her area just to be sure that her home wasn't affected. Through an online search, she quickly found our website. Impressed with our radon mitigation system pictures, she signed up for her FREE estimate and several weeks later, one of our Design Specialists, Brad W, was headed out to the home. 

Brad began his inspection by placing a continuous radon monitoring test on the lowest level of the home. This test works to collect radon levels in the home over a 48-hour timespan, delivering the average result when the test concludes. When Brad finished his inspection, he met with the homeowner to deliver the diagnosis. Brad began by explaining that radon is a radioactive gas that is emitted from the breakdown of soil surrounding your home's foundation. It gets into the home through tiny cracks and holes in the foundation. The gas is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, thus making it completely undetectable without the proper testing. Brad went on to say that the EPA recommends taking action for any levels higher than 4 pCi/L, as this dangerous gas has been linked to the development of lung cancer, claiming 21,000 lives annually. Brad finished by saying that if the results of the test came back higher than the recommended level, he would strongly urge the homeowner to consider installing a radon mitigation system. A typical radon mitigation system consists of a large-diameter plastic pipe that connects the air beneath your foundation to the outdoors. An in-line fan sucks radon-rich air from beneath your foundation and expels this hazardous air to the exterior. Instead of entering your basement or other living space area through numerous gaps and cracks in the foundation, radon gas is extracted from beneath your foundation before it can permeate into interior space. When installed by a professional, a radon mitigation system will lower the concentration of radon gas in the interior air to the minimal levels recommended by the EPA and other health safety agencies. The homeowner liked Brad's plan but decided to wait for the results to return to make her choice. 48 short hours later, Brad returned to the home to read the results, which returned well above 4 pCi/L, so Brad and the homeowner began to discuss the best day for our team to come out and install her system. 

Several weeks later, our Foreman, Dakota M, was able to place the system in the home. Now, our customer can have renewed faith in the air circulating her home!

A Saint Paul, MN, homeowner had been facing an issue with his sump pump for a while. Over the years, the system had started to display problems such as loud and unusual noises, cycling in times of no water intrusion, and not functioning when the basement needed it the most. He decided to find a sump pump repair company near Saint Paul, MN, and quickly found us and signed up for his FREE estimate. 

Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Ryan P, headed out to the home. He completed his thorough inspection of the basement and then met with the homeowner to go over his findings. Ryan began by saying that while the outdated sump pump was not helping the basement, he found evidence of water intrusion in other areas, indicating that the problem was spreading, meaning a sump pump might not be enough to deal with excess water. Ryan first recommended our CleanSpace, a 100% waterproof tarp-like material that gets installed directly to foundation walls to direct water downward into a perimeter drain. In this case, Ryan recommended the drain to be our WaterGuard system. WaterGuard is a below-floor French drain that acts as a channel, directing water entering it to the appropriate disposal site. When Ryan got to the sump, he recommended our SuperSump sump pump, an economical, yet effective system for removing water from a space. The homeowner was thrilled with Ryan's recommendations and scheduled the project for several weeks later.

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Francisco E, and his team installed 27ft of WaterGuard, 13ft of CleanSpace, and 1 SuperSump sump pump. Now, our customer can enjoy a dry and healthy basement!
