Concrete Problems Addressed in Fergus Falls, MN

A homeowner from Fergus Falls, MN, was growing concerned about his front walkway. Over the years the homeowner had noticed that the concrete had begun to sink, slowly pulling away from the home and leave large gaps next to the foundation. Worried about whether or not water would leak into his basement through the gaps, the homeowner decided to search for Minnesota concrete lifting. After speaking with friends and family and doing his own research online, the homeowner decided to get a few quotes, one of which was from American Waterworks. 

A few weeks after scheduling, our Design Specialist, Jackson P, was headed out to the home to complete his free inspection. When Jackson concluded his evaluation, he sat down with the homeowner to go over next steps. Jackson informed the homeowner that the concrete was indeed shifting, and would need to be fixed. He went on to say that American Waterworks could aide the situation with the help of our PolyLevel. This unique polyurethane foam expands as it's injected below uneven concrete. As the foam expands it slowly fills the empty voids below the concrete left over by soil erosion. Jackson also recommended our NexusPro; a silicone-based joint sealant that is applied to the cracks and joints of the concrete after the lift is completed. This specially formulated product works to provide the concrete with long-lasting flexibility while defending the vulnerable soil below from harsh weather conditions and UV rays. The homeowner was thrilled to know he did not need to fully replace his concrete walkway and decided to schedule his project on the spot. 

Several weeks later our Foreman, Charlie, and his Co-Foreman were at the home lifting the areas of sunken concrete. When the job had been completed our customer was thrilled to know that his concrete problems had been handled professionally, and non-invasively.
