Concrete Repair in Blaine, MN

Margaret G. in Blaine, MN had a sidewalk leading up to her stoop that was sinking. She wanted to find an affordable, yet effective way to repair her concrete, so she started to look for a contractor to help her. She heard an ad for American Waterworks on the radio and was interested to learn more about our concrete repair solution, so she called us, and we sent one of our Design Specialists, Chad Johnson, to her home to provide her with a solution.

She was pleased to learn that PolyLevel is a faster, more affordable, and durable option compared to traditional concrete repair. One of our PolyLevel experts, Troy Johnson, drilled penny-sized holes in the concrete slab in front of her steps. He then injected the PolyLevel foam until the concrete was raised to be even with the steps. Lastly, he sealed the cracks in the concrete with our Nexus Pro sealant. The process only took about two hours, and now Margaret will be able to enjoy a raised and level front stoop for years to come.

Uneven Walkway in Minneapolis, MN Lifted with PolyLevel

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN noticed that his walkway had begun settling causing a trip hazard in the area. Concerned for his family, he quickly decided to look into concrete lifting in the area and found our website. After browsing our website and looking through our concrete before and after photos, the homeowner was confident in our crews and contacted us to schedule his FREE estimate. 

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Jesse W., arrived at the home to inspect the homeowner's concerns and to answer questions. He explained to the homeowner that one of the common causes of settling concrete is soil washout. When it rains or floods, water moves through the ground and washes away supporting soils keeping the slabs upright. Luckily, our PolyLevel, a waterproof foam-expanding formula specifically engineered to accurately lift settling slabs, can fix the problem! Jesse also suggested our NexusPro, a silicone-based sealant that is UV resistant so it will not crack, for the joints. After reviewing Jesse's proposal, the homeowner happily agreed and decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Patrick B., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. He lifted the concrete by drilling small holes into the slabs and inserting the injection ports. PolyLevel is then injected into the slab, causing it to lift to the desired height. Once this was done, the crew sealed the holes with cement before sealing the joints with NexusPro. After they were done, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Now, our customer has a smooth walkway that is free from any trip hazard! Are you experiencing something similar? Schedule your FREE estimate today by clicking HERE!

Walkway Get Lifted in Minneapolis, MN

A customer from Minneapolis, MN got in contact with us when he began to notice that his front walkway was sinking away from his front steps, creating a tripping hazard and pooling water. He was afraid that if he left the issue unresolved, he would risk worsening the hazard. When he called in we set him up with our FREE estimate. Once his appointment was scheduled, we sent our Design Specialist, Mike, out to the property to see what could be done. Once he had completed his inspection, he recommended that our customer think of using our PolyLevel solution to lift the walkway. Mike explained that our PolyLevel is an expanding polyurethane foam that is injected beneath the concrete to fill the gaps caused by soil erosion and raise and stabilize the concrete surface. Our customer agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Ben, and his Co-Foreman, Jake, began the process of lifting the walkway by strategically drilling holes into the problem slab. Next, they injected the foam into the holes, making sure to pay close attention to the lifting process to avoid overcorrecting. Once the process was done, our customer was happy to know that he didn't need to work about tripping hazards in front of his home anymore! 

Sinking Concrete Patio Gets a Lift in Blaine, MN

A Blaine, MN, homeowner had been dealing with an issue for a while. His concrete patio was slowly sinking, creating a trip hazard. The homeowner didn't want any more damage to come to his backyard, so he decided to sign up for one of our FREE estimates, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Romeo, headed out to the home.

Once Romeo completed his inspection, he delivered his recommendations to the homeowner. He explained that we could address the sinking concrete using our PolyLevel method. PolyLevel is a dense polyurethane foam that expands when injected beneath sinking concrete slabs. It works to fill voids left by soil erosion and to slowly lift the concrete back to its desired location. Romeo then said that once the lift is complete, our team would go in with our NexusPro. NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant that gets applied directly to cracks and joints in the lifted concrete. It works to prevent unwanted moisture from getting below the slab to the vulnerable concrete below. The homeowner liked the sound of the plan and scheduled the job to be completed several weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Troy J, and his team headed out to the home and completed the lift and seal with no complications. Now our customers can enjoy their outdoor space without worrying about trip hazards!
