A homeowner in Maple Grove, MN, noticed that the walkway leading to their home was sinking and becoming a tripping hazard. Worried this could lead to major issues, the homeowner looked into "concrete sink repair". One of the first companies that caught their attention was us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner signed up for a FREE, no-obligation estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Tony. While inspecting the concrete, Tony determined the sidewalk was sinking due to settlement. To prevent the settlement from continuing, Tony recommended lifting and leveling the sidewalk with PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam injection solution. Knowing this was the best plan of action, the homeowner agreed and worked with Tony to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Reese, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the project. First, Reese and his crew started by securing PolyLevel below the sinking walkway and steps. Once the walkway and steps were properly lifted, the crew shifted to replacing the joints and repairing the cracks with NexusPro, a silicone-based solution. After all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew.

A customer from Maple Grove, MN got in contact with us when they began to notice that their front walkway was showing signs of sinkage. They were afraid that if they left the problem alone they would run the risk of creating even more drastic tripping hazards which could result in injury. When they called in we set them up with our FREE estimate. Once the appointment was booked, our Design Specialist, Brian R, headed out to the property. Once Brian completed his walkthrough he informed the homeowner that the reason they were experiencing the sinkage was because of the soil underneath the concrete slabs. He recommended the use of our PolyLevel injection to fix the issue. He explained that our PolyLevel is an expanding polyurethane foam that expands once it's injected beneath the concrete through small holes on the surface. Our customer agreed with this plan of action and work began once the weather warmed up.
Our PolyLevel Production crew, led by our Foreman, Sam, began the process by strategically drilling holes into the problem concrete. Next, they slowly injected the PolyLevel into the holes, monitoring the lifting process to ensure the slab returned to its former state. They finished the process by sealing all remaining joints and cracks with our NexusPro to ensure that no unwanted water would get beneath the slab in the future.
Once the job was complete our homeowner was happy to know that they didn't have to worry about any tripping hazards in the future!
Greg G. from Maple Grove, MN noticed that the concrete slab by the steps leading to the door of his home started to settle, causing a major tripping hazard. Greg was not satisfied with the way his pathway was looking and wanted to prevent it from being further damaged. Greg then contacted the Appointment Center here at American Waterworks to claim his FREE estimate. This entitled Greg to a full home inspection by one of our Design Specialists. Once an Appointment was set our Design Specialist began to conduct a thorough inspection of the issue to create a proposal that best solves the issue Greg is experiencing. Our Design Specialist proposed to Greg that the best solution was to invest in our PolyLevel Solution along with our NexusPro Solution. Our PolyLevel Solution is a polyurethane foam that is injected through the concrete to fill the voids that were left under the concrete slab due to soil erosion. The Polyurethane foam then expands and hardens supporting the problem slab. Once this step is completed then we apply our NexusPro solution to the cracks and joints, which is a silicone-based solution that has a UV protectant and is able to expand and compress through the different seasons along with the concrete slab. This provides maximum protection to the Polylevel and prevents it from being damaged by water and water vapor. Greg loved the proposal and proceeded to schedule a date of installation.
Our Foreman and his Production team then arrived at the property and began the installation process by strategically drilling holes into the problem slab and then injecting the PolyLevel Solution. Once leveled the team then proceeds to seal the cracks and joints by applying the NexusPro solution. Greg was satisfied with the project and is enjoying his nice and leveled pathway.
