Crystal, MN, Settled, Sinking Stairs Lifted

A homeowner in Crystal, MN, worried their sinking steps were becoming a trip hazard. Hoping to avoid total concrete replacement, the homeowner began looking into "professional concrete lifting near me". With a near five-star rating, American Waterworks stood at the top of the list, so the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of our Design Specialist, Nicola. Nicola promptly arrived at the home and began the inspection. During the inspection, Nicola confirmed several areas were sinking due to settlement. To prevent this issue from worsening, Nicola recommended lifting and leveling the sidewalk back to its original position. Knowing this was the best plan of action, the homeowner decided to go ahead with Nicola's recommendations. Next, Nicola worked with the homeowner to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Sam, and his crew traveled to the home to begin. First, Sam and his crew started by inserting PolyLevel below the sinking slabs. When the PolyLevel was secured, the crew shifted to filing and replacing the joints with NexusPro, a silicone-based solution. After all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. American Waterworks is happy to repair its customers' sinking and damaged concrete. 

Bad Foundation Repair in Crystal, MN

In Crystal, MN, a homeowner had noticed signs of their foundation walls shifting. Knowing the issue would only worsen unless they find the right foundation repair solution, the homeowner decided look into contractors in the area. Impressed by our reviews, the homeowner contacted our Appointment Center to schedule their FREE estimate.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Nicola G., arrived at the home for a thorough inspection. During the inspection, she took a close look at the foundation walls, seeing where the cracks were and which needed stabilizing. After reporting her findings to the homeowner, Nicola recommended installing GeoLock, our warranted foundation repair solution. These work by anchoring the pressure from the interior walls to the earth anchor several feet away from the foundation. Happy to see it comes with a warranty and would fix their foundation problems, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Kiko P., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They first began by digging a hole into stable soil several feet away from the foundation. Then, the earth anchor is placed and is connected to the interior wall plate via a pole. Once these are connected, it is tightened. The crew was able to successfully install 6 anchors!

Basement Wall Stabilized in Minneapolis, MN

A customer from Minneapolis, MN gave us a call when they began to notice that their basement wall was showing significant signs of cracking and failing. They were afraid that if they didn't fix the issue soon, they would risk severely compromising the home's structural integrity. When they called our office, we set them up with our FREE estimate, entitling them to a free and thorough no-obligation walkthrough and diagnosis of the issue. Our Design Specialist, Eric H completed his inspection and then made his recommendations as to how we could fix the issue. Eric wanted to use our PowerBrace wall repair solution, which is steel I-beams that stabilize the wall in its current position without any further adjustments. The customer agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Arturo, and his crew installed 7 of our PowerBraces along the problem wall in the basement. Once they had completed the project, they informed the homeowner that these braces could be tightened over time, ensuring the wall would stay stable for years to come.

Settling Walkway Lifted in Minneapolis, MN

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN, was concerned about his settling concrete walkway causing the area to become uneven and a possible trip hazard. Knowing the area needed expert attention, the homeowner began searching for "concrete leveling in Minneapolis, MN" and found us. After looking over our website and growing impressed by our reviews and transformations, the homeowner contacted our Appointment Center to schedule his FREE estimate. 

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Gary S., arrived at the home to provide a thorough inspection of the issue. During the inspection, Gary confirmed that the area had become a trip hazard. Luckily, we have just the right solution to effectively fix the issue. Gary recommended PolyLevel, our superior concrete lifting solution that compacts the soil beneath the slab before it lifts it. Along with PolyLevel, Gary also recommended NexusPro, our silicone-based sealant that won't ever crack or flake to seal the joints. After looking over Gary's proposal, the homeowner happily agreed to his recommendations and decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Troy J., and his crew arrived at the home to carry out the installation. The crew began by drilling small holes into the concrete slabs. PolyLevel is then injected, filling in the voids in the soil and compacting it before it lifts the slab. Once the slab has been lifted to the desired level, the crew seals the holes. Next, the crew focused on sealing the joints with NexusPro. After they were done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Foundation Stabilization in Minneapolis, MN

In Minneapolis, MN, a homeowner faced a pressing issue: their foundation walls were visibly shifting. They reached out to us at American Waterworks, alarmed by the potential risks to their home's stability. Wanting to address the issue immediately, the homeowner contacted our Appointment Specialist and coordinated a FREE inspection. Our Design Specialist, Brian R., then conducted a comprehensive evaluation of the basement, clearly diagnosing the evolving problem. To address the problem effectively, our recommended solution involved using our CarbonArmor system. This advanced, non-invasive approach involved the use of carbon fiber-reinforced polymers, noted for their exceptional strength and durability compared to traditional methods. Our skilled production team, led by Isael D., undertook the challenge of securing the basement properly. Through careful application of CarbonArmor straps, adhered securely with high-strength epoxy resin, the team successfully stabilized the bowing walls. These straps, along with the robust armor protocor similar in installation, ensured the integrity and safety of the basement. The team executed the solution with precision, finishing the project by efficiently cleaning the work area, thereby leaving no trace of disturbance. The completion of this job reinforced the home's foundation, securing it against future shifts.
