American Waterworks Before & After Photos

 A Heron Lake, MN, homeowner noticed that the concrete patio outside of his home was showing signs of sinking. Worried about what this could mean, the homeowner decided to begin the search for a MN concrete repair company. When he found our website, he signed up for our FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Tony B, headed out to the home to see what could be done. 

Once Tony completed his walkthrough, he met with the homeowner. Tony began by informing the homeowner that concrete can experience sinking for a variety of reasons, but nonetheless, American Waterworks could help. Tony wanted to use our PolyLevel injection to address the sinking concrete. He explained that PolyLevel is a dense polyurethane foam that expands when injected beneath sinking slabs. It works to fill voids left by soil erosion and slowly lift slabs back into place. The homeowner liked the sound of Tony's plan and the work was scheduled for a few weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Jordan, and his team were able to complete the lift with no issues. Now our customer can enjoy his freshly restored concrete!

A homeowner from Lakefield, MN, got in touch with us when she was in the process of updating her outdoor space. She had a large crack forming and had been sinking for years. Wanting to get her space updated, she decided to give us a call and set up her FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Tony B, headed out to the home. 

Once Tony finished his walkthrough, he met with the homeowner to give his recommendations. Tony explained that American Waterworks could address the sinking by installing our PolyLevel. PolyLevel is a dense polyurethane foam that expands when injected beneath concrete slabs, filling voids left by soil erosion and slowly lifting the concrete back into place. He went on to say that we finished our installations with the application of our NexusPro. A silicone-based sealant, NexusPro gets applied to the joints and cracks in the concrete, preventing any unwanted debris or moisture from getting below the slab. The homeowner agreed to the proposed work, and the job was scheduled for a few weeks later. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Domanik, was able to lift the concrete successfully, updating the curb appeal of the patio. Now, our customer is free to upgrade her space and enjoy her outdoor oasis!

Alex J. of Westbrook, MN had water seeping into his basement from his floor cracks. He did some research online to see what companies performed work in basement waterproofing. He came across American Waterworks and called our office line to set up a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Shane Nephew. Alex was confident in Shane's proposal, so he went ahead with the project and scheduled an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his production team began the project by breaking out the basement floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed 158 feet of our WaterGuard System, which serves as an underground drain and prevents water clogs. WaterGuard is one of our most efficient waterproofing systems when it comes to water leaks and will keep your basement clean and dry whether it's during the spring melt or during an intense thunderstorm. To complete the project, Juan and his team covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Alex was satisfied with the outcome and had a remarkable experience from start to finish! 

A homeowner from Westbrook, MN, was down in her basement one day when she noticed a steady stream of water coming through the baseboard of her unfinished basement. She was worried that the leak could be an indicator of a larger issue and decided to find an interior basement waterproofing company in her area. Through a recommendation, she contacted American Waterworks and signed up for her FREE estimate. 

Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Eric H, was headed out to the home. Eric diligently completed his inspection and then met with the homeowner to deliver his recommendations. Eric began by saying that the homeowner was correct to call us, stating that water intrusion issues only worsen with time, creating bigger messes and higher costs. Eric stated that the problem could be fixed with the installation of our WaterGuard and our SuperSump plus sump pump. Beginning with the WaterGuard, Eric explained that this product is a unique French drain that gets installed below the basement floor, but atop the footing of the foundation, keeping it out of the 'mud zone' where similar drains tend to clog. It functions to give the water entering through the floor a channel to flow freely to the SuperSump pump, an effective yet economical solution for ridding a basement of water. The homeowner was thrilled with Eric's solution and signed on the spot. 

Several weeks later, our Foreman, Lane S, and his team effortlessly installed 106 ft of WaterGuard and 1 SuperSump plus sump pump in the basement of the space. Now, our customer can breathe easy knowing that her basement will properly dispose of unwanted water!
