Concrete Repair in Blaine, MN 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.

Jesse recommended the foundation be permanently stabilized and the sidewalk is lifted and leveled. The homeowner agreed and production preparations began. Our Foreman, Jordan, and his crew traveled to the home and started the project. First, the crew focused on stabilizing the foundation with GeoLock anchors. The crew attached five GeoLock anchors on the west wall. Once the GeoLocks were secured, the crew shifted their focus to lifting and leveling the concrete sidewalk.

Job Stories From Anoka County, MN
Sunken Stoop in Circle Pines, MN

Tom H. in Circle Pines, MN had noticed how uneven the concrete slab on his stoop was and that it had created a safety hazard. After doing research on the internet, he came across the PolyLEVEL solution that American Waterworks offers. The American Waterworks team set up an appointment for a Design Specialist to do a free onsite estimate and Tom decided that a PolyLEVEL injection best fit his concrete leveling needs.

PolyLEVEL expert, Brandon Wiskow injected the high-density foam beneath the settled concrete. The foam expanded and lifted Tom's concrete slab to make it a level surface. This minimally invasive technique cures quickly, so Tom was able to enjoy a safe and level stoop within 15 minutes of the injection.

Settling Foundation in Andover, MN

Coralee V. in Andover, MN discovered that the foundation of her home had started to settle when she saw one of her basement walls had cracked. She saw an advertisement for American Waterworks and decided it would be a good idea to get an estimate and learn more about the situation. She gave us a call, and the next day we had our Design Specialist, Chad Johnson, on site to determine the best course of action. Chad thoroughly walked Coralee through her options and what could happen if she chose to leave the problem unattended to. She decided that Chad's plan to have piers installed was the smart choice so that she could avoid having to replace her foundation, which is a far more expensive solution.

Four push piers were installed underneath the foundation of the cracked basement wall. The piers transfer the weight of the foundation to strong, competent supporting soils at a greater depth. The installation was a fast and minimally invasive process that was successful in lifting the home to its original position. The push piers provided a permanent solution to her settling foundation and she was glad that she chose to have the piers installed.  

Apartment Complex Waterproofing in Anoka, MN

In two of the units, our production team installed our WaterGuard drainage sysytem and our SuperSump sump pump system. The WaterGuard guides any water seeping in to the sump pump, then the sump pump discharges the water from the apartment. The waterproofing system ensures that those units will remain dry for years to come. Our waterproofing system is backed by a lifetime warranty, so the Rivertown Apartments can be at ease knowing that they invested in long-term protection for those units.

SmartJack Foundation stabilization in Andover, MN

Our customer Zac, from Andover, MN was dealing with foundation issues where one area of his house was unstable due to an unstable basement. This caused a ripple effect that could be felt throughout the home every time there was movement. Zac also saw that the living room floor is uneven and has a dip to the center of the room. Zac then contacted the offices at American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate with one of our Appointment centers based on the foundation issues he was currently experiencing. After scheduling an appointment to express his concern, our Design Specialist, Shane, was then able to get on the property and conduct a full investigation to identify the problem.  As Shane was conducting his investigation he notice that the problem was due to the bowing wood that was located on the ceiling of the basement, causing an uneven floor. Once identifying the problem Shane then recommended Zac purchase our supplemental beam along with our SmartJack system. This system helps support and restore saggy beams over time. As time passes, Zac can give us a call to tighten this system as the house then begins to settle. This helps improve the stability and the straightening of the beam that is bowing.

Waterproofing Transformation in Bethel, MN

A homeowner in Bethel, MN, was having recurring water intrusion issues near the edge of their basement floor. Knowing this could be a sign of a larger issue, the homeowner wanted to have a professional inspect the basement. After searching for the perfect basement waterproofing company, the homeowners decided to work with American Waterworks. The homeowner went to our website and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the appointment was made, one of our Design Specialists, Shane, arrived at the home to begin his assessment. Following his assessment, Shane recommended an assortment of waterproofing products that would solve this issue. The homeowner agreed with Shane's recommendations and the project was given the go-ahead. 

Our Foreman, Lane, and his crew arrived at the home and began installing the waterproofing products. The crew started by installing the WaterGuard, a below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. To begin the installation, the crew dug a channel around the perimeter of the foundation floor. Once the channel was dug, the crew could lay the WaterGuard on the bottom of the channel. After the WaterGuard is put in the correct position, the crew could cover it with dirt and cement to match the rest of the concrete floor. Since the WaterGuard was installed, the crew could tie in the new SuperSumpPlus pump. The crew simply removed the old sump pump and replaced it with the American Waterworks SuperSumpPlus pump. Once the sump pump was in place, the crew did one last walk around the basement to ensure everything was running smoothly. The homeowners were relieved that their basement was properly waterproofed and ready for the heavy rains to come. If you are experiencing a similar issue, sign up for your FREE estimate today! 

Sunken Concrete Repair in Saint Francis, MN

A homeowner in Saint Francis, MN, was playing outdoor games with their family when they discovered a significant gap between their garage floor and garage apron. Instead of letting the gap worsen, the homeowners decided to take action. After sifting through multiple concrete repair companies, the homeowner decided to work with the highly-rated, American Waterworks. After signing up for their FREE estimate online, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of Mike, one of our Design Specialists. After Mike arrived, he started by evaluating the affected concrete slabs. Following his evaluation, Mike determined that the concrete slabs were sinking. He warned the homeowners that the problem would worsen if not fixed, so he provided a plan to prevent further sinking. After hearing Mike's suggestions, the homeowner agreed with his plan of action. Once the plans were approved, a crew was assigned to complete the task. Our Foreman, Patrick, and his crew traveled to the home and prepared for the repairs. First, the crew began by injecting the PolyLevel into the garage apron. The PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam injection solution that can restore the appearance and safety of your concert. The crew begins the installation by strategically drilling 5/8" holes throughout the specific slab. Then, injection ports are installed in these small holes. Next, the polyurethane foam is injected beneath the concrete to fill voids and raise the slab. Finally, the holes and control joints are sealed. Once the garage apron was finished, the crew did the same process on the slab near the front door. After both sections were successfully raised and leveled, the crew cleaned up their job site and left the home. The homeowners were thankful for the job completed by the crew and left them a glowing review. If you are experiencing a similar issue, sign up for your FREE estimate today! 

Transformed Crawl Space in Minneapolis, MN

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN, was spending time with their family in their home when they noticed a strong pungent smell in their home. Unnerved by the smell, the homeowner began searching for a professional to provide them with some answers. Overwhelmed by all the options, the homeowner took their search to HomeAdvisor. While searching, the homeowner noticed our five-star rating and eye-catching reviews. That is all the homeowner needed and they called our Appointment Center to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the appointment was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Dylan. Once Dylan arrived, he began his detailed inspection of the basement to find the source of the smell. After completing the inspection, Dylan determined the odor was coming from the crawl space in the basement. After alerting the homeowner, Dylan proposed a plan that would solve all their issues. The homeowners agreed with Dylan's recommended plan, and project preparations began. Our Foreman, Victor, and his crew arrived at the home to begin the encapsulation process. To start, the crew began by clearing out all the debris and garbage in the crawl space. Once the crawl space was cleared, the crew was able to lay the Drainage Matting on the crawl space floor. The Drainage Matting gives the water flooding into your crawl space a channel underneath the crawl space liner. Next, the crew installed CleanSpace, a waterproof plastic vapor barrier, on the crawl space floors and walls. The crew mechanically attaches CleanSpace onto the crawl space floors and walls with plastic drilled-in fasteners to ensure they never fall off. Once the CleanSpace was mechanically attached, the crew installed Foamax onto the block walls and injected spray foam into the upper rim joists.

Cracks Stabilized in Minneapolis, MN

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN, was organizing their basement when they discovered a small horizontal crack growing along their foundation wall. Concerned by this discovery, the homeowner began looking for professional assistance. During their search, the same company kept getting brought up, American Waterworks. The homeowner's attention was caught, and they looked into the types of services we provide. After seeing all our wonderful reviews, the homeowner decided to call our Appointment Center and sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the appointment was set, we sent Nick, one of our Design Specialists, to investigate the foundation. Upon arrival, Nick greeted the homeowners and began his assessment. Following his assessment, Nick determined that the wall was showing early signs of failure due to improper soil fill. This is when the area around the home is not compacted properly. To stop the wall from further failure, the homeowner determined that the wall needed to be permanently stabilized. The homeowner knew this was their best option, so they agreed with the plan. Our Foreman, Jose, and his crew were assigned to complete the job. Once they arrived, they began by preparing the basement and lawn for the GeoLock installation. GeoLock is our wall anchoring system that permanently stabilizes foundation walls. First, the crew excavates a small amount of soil out of the ground, so the outside GeoLock anchor can be secured in place. Then, the crew attached the interior GeoLock anchor to the foundation wall. To connect the two anchors, the crew runs a small, steel pole through the soil.  After installing five GeoLocks on the west wall, the crew cleaned up their job site and left the home. The homeowners were relieved to know they caught this issue early enough. If you are experiencing a similar issue, sign up for your FREE estimate today! 

PolyLevel and GeoLock Saves Home in Fridley, MN

A homeowner in Fridley, MN, knew it was time to have repairs done on their home. Instead of ignoring the issue, the homeowner began searching for a company to repair and restore their home. Overwhelmed by all the options, the homeowner decided to ask their friends and family for any recommendations. The majority of them recommended us, American Waterworks. The homeowner visited our website and saw that we offer FREE estimates, so they decided to sign up for theirs. Once the appointment was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of our Design Specialist, Jesse. When Jesse arrived, he began his analysis of the home. Jesse discovered that the foundation was struggling and the concrete needed repairs. After alerting the homeowner about the struggles, Jesse recommended the foundation be permanently stabilized and the concrete be lifted and leveled. Wanting to solve the issues, the homeowner agreed and production began. Our Foreman, Jordan, and his crew were assigned to complete the project. When they arrived, the crew started by installing the GeoLock anchors onto the west foundation wall. The GeoLock Wall Anchor system permanently stabilizes the foundation wall by anchoring your walls to the hard-packed untouched soil beyond your foundation. The crew installs the GeoLocks by digging a section of the ground to place the first GeoLock anchor. Once the GeoLock is in place, another anchor is attached to the interior wall. Both GeoLocks are connected by a small, steel pole direct through the ground. Once the GeoLocks are secured, the soil is put back on top of the ground. Once the GeoLocks were secured, the crew moved their attention to lifting and leveling the sidewalk in front of the home. The PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam injection solution, is inserted underneath the affected concrete. To install the PolyLevel, the crew strategically drills small 5/8" holes into the concrete slab. Next, the injection ports are installed in the small holes. Then, the polyurethane foam is injected beneath the concrete to fill voids and raise the slab. Finally, the holes and control joints are sealed. After the PolyLevel was successfully installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was excited to know their sidewalk and foundation were saved. If you are experiencing a similar issue, sign up for your FREE estimate today! 

CarbonArmor and PowerBrace Install in Anoka, MN

A homeowner in Anoka, MN, noticed their wall was beginning to bow inward. Worried about the effect it could have long-term, the homeowner knew they needed to look into repair options. Unsure where to begin, the homeowner asked a local Facebook group if they had any recommendations. Many members recommended getting a FREE estimate from us, American Waterworks. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. After the estimate was set, we sent one of our Design Specialist, Rick, to the home. When Rick arrived, he began evaluating the foundation. Following his evaluation, Rick confirmed the foundation required permanent stabilization. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner decided to go along with Rick's recommendations. Our Foreman, Luis, and his crew were assigned to complete the project. When they arrived, Luis and his crew began by installing four PowerBrace on the north foundation wall. PowerBraces is a patented foundation wall repair system that is designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. Next, the PowerBraces are secured into the floor joist hardware and fine-tuned into the correct position. The, the PowerBraces are attached to the floor with a special, bolt-in-place bracket. Since the homeowners wished to include the straightening kit, they can tighten the brackets over time to gradually straighten the walls. After the PowerBraces, the crew shifted their focus to installing the CarbonArmor on the other half of the foundation wall. CarbonArmor is a wall reinforcing system that is a state-of-the-art solution used to fix cracked and bowing foundation walls. CarbonArmor strips utilize epoxy and carbon fiber strips to strengthen and stabilize foundation walls that are cracked or bowed. To install the CarbonArmor strips, the crew begins by cleaning the wall to ensure good adhesion. Then, the technician masks off each carbon fiber strip location and saturates the masonry with epoxy. The CarbonArmor reinforcement becomes part of the wall structure. Once all the products were installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew. If you are suffering from a similar issue, sign up for your FREE estimate today! 

PolyLevel Injections Completed in Cedar, MN

In Cedar, MN a homeowner was eager to make some changes to his front yard area to increase the curb appeal of his home. The first thing he wanted to focus on was the concrete porch outside of the front door. He had noticed a gap between the home and the porch and figured that it had most likely sunk over the years from the heavy weight of the furniture that sat on top. He decided to go online in hopes of finding a reasonable solution that would effectively be able to restore the area without large costs. The homeowner found the American Waterworks company name in a catalog and searched our website online to schedule a FREE estimate with one of our team members. When Design Specialist Gary Schulte arrived at the home, he inspected the homeowner's area of concern and also answered all questions he had. Gary suggested that both our PolyLevel and NexusPro products be installed to the concrete porch as well as the front steps and walkway to fully repair and restore the area. PolyLevel is a high-density polyurethane formula that stabilizes and lifts sinking concrete and NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant for joints and cracks. The homeowner agreed and when the project day came, our Foreman, Troy Johnson, and his crew went to the site. They began by drilling small pencil-sized holes throughout the concrete and inserting ports through the holes to reach below the surface. Then, they injected the PolyLevel foam in the ports until the empty space was filled and had lifted the concrete back up. Finally, the crew filled in the holes and empty joints with the NexusPro sealant and sprinkled a layer of native sand on top for a smooth final look. The homeowner was thrilled with how the project turned out and knew choosing American Waterworks was a good decision.

He placed some native sand on top of the sealant for a smooth and neat final look for the driveway. The homeowner was glad she had contacted us and was relieved to have a leveled driveway again.

Waterproofing Before and After in Richfield, MN

A homeowner in Richfield, MN, knew there was an issue in their home when they discovered a musty smell in their basement. Instead of letting the issue worsen, the homeowners began searching for the best waterproofing company near them. One of the first companies on their list was us, American Waterworks. After taking a closer look at our company and its values, they knew we were the best pick for them. Once they set their FREE estimate, the homeowner awaited the arrival of Darin, one of our Design Specialists. Darin arrived at the home and began inspecting the basement. Following his detailed inspection, Darin found several areas where water was sneaking into their home. Darin met with the homeowner and recommended fully waterproofing the basement. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner agreed and plans were sent to the office for approval. Once approved, they were sent to our Foreman, Lane, and his crew. Lane and the crew traveled to the home to begin the project. First Lane and his crew installed WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. The WaterGuard is a below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. The crew installs the WaterGuard by digging channels around the perimeter of the basement floor. Once the channels are dug, the crew can go ahead and place the drainage stone in the channels. The WaterGuard is then placed on top of the stone and covered with cement. Once the WaterGuard is in place, the crew could shift their focus to removing the old sump pump and replacing it with the SuperSump+. The crew installed a feedline across the floor to connect the SuperSump+ to the new WaterGuard. After the SuperSump+ was fully installed, the crew installed CleanSpace along the walls. CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof plastic vapor barrier that prevents humidity and mold growth. The crew installs CleanSpace by mechanically attaching them to the basement walls with plastic drilled-in fasteners. Finally, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was given peace of mind, knowing their basement was no longer at risk. If you are experiencing a similar issue, sign up for your FREE estimate today! 

Dropping Driveway Apron Raised in Andover, MN

A homeowner in Andover, MN, was worried their driveway and back patio were starting to become a tripping hazard. Wanting to resolve the issue, the homeowner began looking for answers. After talking with friends and family who had similar work done, several of them recommended working with American Waterworks. The homeowner went to our website and saw some impressive before and after driveway photos and was impressed enough to work with our company. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. After the estimate was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of one of our Design Specialists, Romeo. Soon after Romeo arrived, he began his thorough investigation of the driveway. Romeo found that the garage apron and back patio were sinking due to settlement. To stop both areas from sinking further, Romeo recommended lifting and replacing the joints in both areas. After some deliberation, the homeowner decided to follow along with Romeo's plan. Next, the plans were sent to our office for approval, and then to our Foreman, Sam, and his crew. Once Sam and his crew received the plans, they packed up their materials and traveled to the home. Sam and his crew started by lifting the garage apron and back patio with PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam injection solution. The PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam injection solution that restores the appearance and safety of the concrete. The crew started by strategically drilling small holes throughout the slab. Then, the crew inserts ports into those small holes. Next, the polyurethane foam is injected beneath the concrete to fill voids and raise the slabs. Finally, the holes and control joints are sealed. Once the PolyLevel injection was finished, the crew shifted their focus to replacing the joints. The crew utilized NexusPro Sealant, a silicone-based sealant for joints and cracks formulated to provide long-lasting flexibility and withstand harsh weather conditions. The crew begins by drilling, smoothing, and preparing the non-absorbent backer rod filler. Then, the NexusPro sealant is inserted in the prepared crack or control joint. Finally, the cracks are detailed with a thin layer of native sand, giving the concrete a uniform, finished appearance. The crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was grateful for the excellent work completed by the crew. Don't let sinking concrete worsen in your home, and sign up for your FREE estimate today!
