SmartJack Saves Foundation Ceiling in Monticello, MN

A homeowner in Monticello, MN, noticed their basement ceiling was sinking, so they attempted to fix it themselves. The homeowner placed a wood post in the middle of the room, holding up the ceiling. Knowing this fix would not last forever, the homeowner knew they needed professional assistance. Unsure of who to work with, the homeowner looks at the best basement repair companies in their area. During their search, the homeowner came across our stellar reviews and ratings. Impressed, the homeowner decided to go to our website and sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, we sent one of our Design Specialists, Ryan, to the home to complete the evaluation. Once he arrived, Ryan began his inspection of the basement and confirmed the post needed to be replaced. Ryan suggested replacing the post with one of our SmartJacks, and the homeowners agreed. Once they received approval, the plans were directed to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Gustavo, and his crew arrived at the home to begin the installation. First, the crew removed the wood post from its position. Then, the crew replaced the old post with the SmartJack. Once the SmartJack was secured into place, the crew cleaned up their materials. The homeowners were grateful for the excellent work completed by the crew, so they left a kind review. American Waterworks is glad to help another customer feel safe in their home. 

Concrete Repair Specialist in Monticello, MN

A homeowner in Monticello, MN, disliked the look of their uneven and separating concrete slabs. Worried this issue would worsen, the homeowner knew they needed to find a permanent solution. Hoping to avoid total concrete replacement, the homeowner began looking into "concrete repair specialist near me". After sifting through several companies, only one stood above the rest: American Waterworks. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Gary. A few weeks later, Gary arrived at the home and began the thorough inspection of the exterior concrete. During the inspection, Gary confirmed that several slabs were suffering from settlement. To prevent the settlement from continuing, Gary recommended installing PolyLevel underneath the struggling sidewalk. Knowing this was the best option, the homeowner decided to go ahead with his proposal. Next, Gary sent the proposal to our Logistics team to give the final stamp of approval. Once they approved the plans, it was scheduled with our Foreman, Sam, and his crew. A few weeks later, Sam and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Sam and his crew began by inserting PolyLevel underneath the struggling sidewalk. Once the PolyLevel was inserted, Sam and his crew shifted to inserting NexusPro in the joints and cracks. After all the joints and cracks were repaired, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was in awe of the wonderful transformation made by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to repair its customers' damaged and struggling concrete.

PolyLevel Lifts and Restores Concrete in Glencoe, MN

Pat M. in Glencoe, MN had some sinking and cracked concrete throughout her driveway and patio. She was looking into concrete repair options when she came across the American Waterworks website. She was interested in our PolyLevel concrete repair option and contacted us for a FREE estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Reed Hudson, to meet with Pat and propose a solution.

Our Foreman, Brandon Wiskow, and Co-Foreman Tyler Brockway, drilled small holes into the concrete and injected the polymer foam which expands and hardens under the concrete, causing the concrete to raise. They repeated this process numerous times until the driveway and walkways were raised back to their original position. Next, they filled the holes with fresh concrete, sealed the cracks with our Nexus Pro sealant, and cleaned up the work area. Pat was pleased with the results and is glad she can now enjoy a safe driveway and patio for years to come!

Foundation Repair in Glencoe, MN

Ken and Margaret F.'s foundation wall was bowing in Glencoe, MN. Their realtor recommended American Waterworks for the repairs. They got in contact with our company and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist team. Our Design Specialist went to their home, inspected their foundation wall, and determined our Wall Anchor System for the repairs. Ken and Margaret were confident in our proposal, so they went ahead with the repairs. 

Our Foreman and his crew installed 21 of our anchors. This system is earth anchors that are embedded into the stable soil outside your foundation wall. Each anchor is connected by a steel rod to a wall plate that provides the clamping pressure against the foundation wall to straighten it. This system is the most versatile foundation repair method that we provide for homeowners because of its ability to solve various problems. Ken and Margaret were happy with the work and had a remarkable experience.
