A homeowner from Excelsior, MN, had been watching his concrete driveway sink for some time. He decided he was ready to begin the process of restoration. He began to look for concrete leveling specialists in his area and eventually found American Waterworks. He claimed his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Dave S, headed out to the home. When Dave arrived, he got right to work assessing the concrete in the front of the home, spending a large amount of time on the driveway and walkway up to the home. When he completed his inspection, he met with the homeowner to deliver his findings. Dave began by explaining that concrete can sink for a variety of reasons, but that he believed our PolyLevel lifting and leveling solution would bring about the desired results. PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that expands when it's injected beneath sunken concrete slabs. As the foam expands and hardens, it slowly lifts the concrete back to its desired position. He went on to say that once the concrete was leveled, he would recommend the use of our NexusPro, a silicone-based sealant for joints and cracks, specially formulated to provide long-lasting flexibility and to stand up against harsh weather conditions. Unlike traditional polyurethane sealants, NexusPro resists UV rays, which means it won't crack, bubble or dry out. That means a single application can seal the joints and cracks in your concrete driveway, patio, or sidewalk for years to come, protecting it from damage caused by soil compaction and washout. The homeowner was thrilled with Dave's solution, and the two decided on a date.
A month later, our Foreman, Pat B, and his team effortlessly lifted the sunken areas of the concrete back to it's previous state. Now, our customer is thrilled with the new and improved look of his concrete!
A homeowner from Faribault, MN, noticed that the concrete slab just beyond his garage door was beginning to sink, creating a trip hazard. Not wanting anyone to take an unnecessary tumble, he decided to research companies in the area that could help with the problem. After doing his research online, he came across our website and decided to take advantage of our FREE estimates. A few weeks later our Design Specialist, Aidan, headed out to the home.
After Aidan finished his inspection of the concrete, he informed the homeowner that he was right to call. Concrete issues are often cheaper when caught and addressed earlier. He went on to say that American Waterworks could fix the sinking slab by using our PolyLevel lifting and leveling method. Our PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that expands when injected below slabs, filling voids left by soil erosion and slowly lifting the slab back to its desired resting spot. Aidan went on to say that we finished the process by installing our NexusPro. This silicone-based sealant gets applied directly to the cracks and joints in the concrete, preventing any unwanted water from getting below the slab. The homeowner agreed and the work was scheduled to be completed a few weeks later.
On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Patrick, and his team made quick work of the project. When the job was completed, our customer was thrilled to know he no longer needed to worry about trip hazards!

A homeowner from Faribault, MN, got in touch with us when she noticed that a crack in her front walkway had progressed and gotten worse. Not wanting to let the issue worsen, she decided to give us a call and claim her FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Tony B, headed out to the home. When Tony concluded his inspection, he met with the homeowner to give his recommendation. He informed the homeowner that we could address the sinking concrete with the help of our PolyLevel lifting and leveling solution. He explained that our PolyLevel is a dense, polyurethane foam that expands when injected beneath sinking concrete, filling voids left by soil erosion and slowly lifting the concrete back into its former place. He went on to say that our lifts are completed with the application of our NexusPro. A silicone-based sealant, NexusPro gets applied to cracks and joints in the concrete and works to prevent moisture from getting below the slab. The homeowner agreed with Tony's plan, and the work was scheduled for a few weeks later.
On the day of the project, our Foreman, Dylon M, and his team were able to complete the lift and seal with no complications. Now our customer is thrilled to kow that she no longer has to worry about cracked concrete!
A homeowner in Faribault, MN, was concerned about his settling back porch, which was a tripping hazard for family and friends. He searched for "porch sinking repair" and found our website. After browsing our website, he was impressed with our before-and-after photos and decided to schedule his FREE, no-obligation estimate.
Our Design Specialist, Mitch S., arrived at the home on the scheduled date and conducted a thorough inspection of the back porch. He explained to the homeowner that one of the common causes of a sinking porch is soil compacting and settling. When a soil's load-bearing capacity exceeds, it causes the support soil beneath the concrete slab to expand and contract. This eventually leads to concrete sinking and, in most cases, cracks forming in one or more parts of the slab. To fix this issue, Mitch recommended our PolyLevel to lift the concrete and NexusPro to seal the cracks and joints. The homeowner was thankful for Mitch's explanation and decided to move forward with his recommendation. Mitch's design was then sent to our Foreman, Jordan S.
In about a month, Jordan and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They began lifting the concrete by drilling small holes into the slab and installing the injection ports. PolyLevel is then injected beneath the slab, causing it to lift. Once it has been lifted, the crew ensures it is leveled before sealing the holes with concrete. Lastly, the crew uses NexusPro to seal the cracks and joints. Both PolyLevel and NexusPro are long-lasting with high durability. Once the crew was done with the installations, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

A homeowner in Shakopee, MN, noticed that the walkway and top of his driveway had begun settling, causing the area to become uneven and bumpy. Concerned it would be a trip hazard for his friends and family, the homeowner decided to look into concrete lifting in the area and found us. After browsing our website and becoming impressed by our concrete transformations, the homeowner contacted us to schedule his FREE estimate.
In about a week, our Design Specialist, Michel R., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, Michel explained to the homeowner that soil washout could be the likely reason why the homeowner is facing concrete settlement. Soil washout is the process in which water moves through the ground and washes away supporting soils. Over time, this creates voids in the soil and leads to the slabs sinking. To effectively fix this issue, Michel recommended PolyLevel, our waterproof foam expanding formula that accurately lifts sunken concrete; SealantPro, our concrete sealant that protects your concrete from elements and prevents discoloration and cracking; and NexusPro, our silicone-based sealant that is specifically engineered to repair cracks and seal joints. After reviewing Michel's proposal, the homeowner happily agreed to his recommendations of lifting the walkway and top driveway with PolyLevel and to seal the joints with NexusPro.
In a couple of days, our Foreman, Ryan T., and his crew arrived to spray SealantPro along the driveway and walkway. Once this product is applied, it leaves a green residue that dries clear. This is so that our crew can apply the product evenly without missing a spot. In about 3 weeks, our Foreman, Jordan S., and his crew arrived at the home to install PolyLevel and NexusPro. Once they were done, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.
Now, our customer can have peace of mind knowing his concrete is protected and level! Are you experiencing something similar? Click HERE to schedule your FREE estimate today!
