Ray W. in South Saint Paul, MN was suffering from a severely bowing foundation wall. He knew he shouldn’t wait to repair his foundation because he knows how expensive it is to replace the foundation altogether if it were to fail. While searching for a company that could help restore his foundation, he came across the American Waterworks’ website.

Jessica from Mendota, MN, got in contact with us when she suspected that her home was infested with hazardous Radon gas. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can be extremely harmful to both humans and pets if inhaled at high levels for an extended period of time. In fact, Radon gas exposure has quickly become the second leading cause of lung cancer. Radon can be measured in picocuries per liter, or pCi/L. The National Radon Defense suggests taking action with any levels above 4 pCi/L. Jessica used her FREE estimate and we sent our Design Specialist, Dustin, out to the property to complete a Radon test to find out the levels in the home. When the results came back, Dustin found the levels to be at 6.8 pCi/L, well above when the NRD would recommend action. He suggested Jessica have a Radon mitigation system installed, which would help lift the gas from the home and expel it up and outwards through a vent in the top of the house. Our Foreman, Juan, installed the system with little hassle. Now, Jessica and her family can breathe a bit easier knowing that their home is no longer infested with dangerous levels of Radon.

A concerned customer from Rosemount, MN, got in contact with us when her cracked and settling concrete slab in her garage began to worsen. She knew that if she left the problem unresolved it could create a potentially dangerous tripping hazard or could worsen and be more expensive to fix later down the road. When she called in, we set her up with our FREE estimate, and one of our Design Specialists from our Concrete and Radon Division headed out to the property in the coming weeks. Once he arrived, he did a thorough investigation into the problem. Once he finished his walk-through he was able to make his recommendations as to how we could best help fix the issue. He recommended that our customer invests in our Lift and Level option for her concrete slab. This process entails us drilling strategic holes into the slab and then injecting our PolyLevel foam into the holes. This foam is an expanding polyurethane foam that is injected beneath concrete slabs to fill gaps caused by soil erosion and raise and stabilize the concrete surfaces. Our Foreman, Sam, was able to complete the project with little hassle. When the job was completed, our customer was happy to know that her concrete slab wasn't moving any time soon!

Our customer, David, from Inver Grove Heights, MN, reached out to us when he noticed that his concrete walkway to his garage was uneven and may cause potential trip hazards. David was worried that this problem may worsen over time and cause a major problem down the road. When David contacted our office at American Waterworks, we were able to set David up with the FREE estimate that we offer. A Design Specialist forms our Concrete and Radon division was then able to visit David and do a thorough inspection of the issue and see how we can prevent any further damage to the concrete. Once a thorough inspection was complete our Design Specialist recommended that David should invest in our lifting and leveling option. David agreed and our Foreman, Brandon, and his crew arrived at the scene and proceeded with the installation. The crew began by drilling holes in strategically placed areas through the concrete slab and filled it with our PolyLevel solution, which is an expanding polyurethane foam that fills the gap between the concrete and the soil due to soil erosion. This poly foam then raises and stabilizes the concrete slab. During the process, the crew keeps a close eye as the foam expands to the appropriate height. After the PolyLevel stage, Brandon and his team, then finish by sealing any holes or joints that remain with our NexusPro solution. The NexusPro solution is a silicone-based sealant that is long-lasting and durable. This is so that the joints do not separate or tear in harsh weather where concrete may expand or shrink with temperature. David was happy with the work that has been done and worry-free that the issue will not occur again.

Tim from Lakeville, MN, noticed a crack and bow on the foundation wall supporting his garage, causing him to worry about the structural integrity of his home. He then proceeded to call the Appointment Center here at American Waterworks after hearing about the FREE estimate we offer. Once claiming his free estimate and scheduled an appointment, our Design Specialist, Shane Nephew then attended Tim's home and began a thorough house inspection to provide the best solution to prevent any further damage or future issues involving the home's foundation. After the inspection, Shane proposed that Tim should invest in our GeoLock Wall Anchors to permanently stabilize the issue wall. Tim was content with the proposal and proceeded to set a date of installation. 

Then, on the day of installation, our Foreman Jesus C., and his team then began the installation process by digging four holes inside the garage large enough to fit an anchor plate. Once dug, the team then proceeds to drill holes through the issue wall and insert a long rod that goes through the hard compact soil underneath the home. Once the rods are inserted the production team then proceeds to attach a wall anchor plate at the end of each side of the rod. Once the job was finished the team backfilled the holes and place a layer of concrete to provide a more finishing look. The GeoLock Wall anchors could be tightened over time to provide more stability in straightening the wall over time. Tim is now comfortable that his home's foundation is in no danger.

During their search, the homeowner came across our previous concrete work and was impressed. The homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate on our website and Michel, one of our Design Specialist, was sent to the home.

A homeowner in Farmington, MN, knew their crawl space needed a professional evaluation. Unsure of what company to work with, the homeowner asked their neighbors about their past experiences. Many neighbors recommended American Waterworks, so the homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate. Soon after finalizing the appointment details, we sent out Ryan, one of our Design Specialists to the home. Ryan arrived and performed the crawl space inspection.

Geo-Locks are a galvanized steel wall anchor system that permanently stabilizes your foundation wall by anchoring to untouched soil beyond your foundation. To begin the installation, the crew excavated a small section of the lawn to insert the first Geo-Lock anchor. Then, a small steel pole is pushed through the soil to connect to the interior Geo-Lock anchor. Once the Geo-Lock anchors are connected and secured, the crew covers the hole in the lawn. Additionally, the crew left a straightening kit, so the homeowner can straighten their walls over time.

A homeowner in Burnsville, MN was soaking in the beginning of the summer by enjoying his backyard pool area. He noticed upon looking closer at the joints on the concrete pool deck that there were many small cracks and holes that had formed.

In Eagan, MN a homeowner was in her basement space when she discovered a small puddle of water on the floor. She became concerned and was worried about further damage happening if nothing was done. Rather than do a ton of research on companies that specialized in basement waterproofing, she called the company that her neighbor had success with when their basement had water damage. We informed her that we were able to help and set her up with a FREE no-obligation estimate with one of our Design Specialists, Adam Voigt. When Adam arrived at the home, he discovered the homeowner's current sump pump wasn't able to keep up with the amount of water that was entering through the foundation.

We sent over one of our Foremen, Chris Newton, and his crew for the installation of a SuperSump Plus pump system. Chris discovered that the new pump was too big for the area that the current pump was located and explained his idea to the homeowner to move the location over for the best results. The homeowner was pleased that he brought it up to her and approved of the idea. The crew then dug up the new space for the pump, inserted the sump pump pit, and placed the SuperSump Plus inside.

A homeowner in Farmington, MN was concerned about his front walkway because many of the slabs had sunk and there were some cracks scattered throughout the surface.

A homeowner in Lakeville, MN was tired of dealing with water entering one of the rooms in her basement every time it rained. Not only was it tiresome to clean up the mess, but also left behind areas of water damage to the concrete flooring. She knew it was time to take action and find a solution, so she went online to search "waterproofing Minneapolis." She found the American Waterworks website and decided to sign up for a FREE no-obligation estimate with us to learn more. Our Design Specialist, Darin Stenglein, went to the home to carry out a detailed inspection of the basement and see what recommendations he could come up with. Darin explained to the homeowner that because the floors were concrete, there were likely small cracks and pores in them where the water entered from. To tackle this problem, he recommended our WaterGuard basement drain system be installed to the perimeter of the room to catch incoming water and safely send it away. The homeowner was excited to hear that something could be done, so she agreed to the installation. Later, one of our Foreman, Kiko Pena, and his crew arrived at the site and began the project by jackhammering channels along the perimeter of the basement room. They partly filled in the channels with drainage stone followed by the WaterGuard drains and more clean stone on top. Finally, they poured and smoothed concrete in the channels to provide protection to the drains by keeping out dirt and debris from entering. The homeowner was very happy with how the project went and relieved that water wouldn't be making its way inside the home anymore.

A Lakeville, MN, homeowner had noticed an odd situation occurring. After each rain, the corner of her room would take on water, making the carpet damp and leaving the room bathed in a musty smell. Not wanting the issue to worsen, she began to look for a basement waterproofing company in Minnesota. Off of the referral of a friend, she decided to contact American Waterworks and set up her FREE estimate. A few weeks later, one of our Design Specialist, Dustin A, headed out to the home. When he arrived, he got right to work completing his inspection and then met with the homeowner to deliver his recommendations. Dustin began by explaining that typically, waterproofing issues are most commonly noticed in the corner of rooms. This means that the soil around the foundation of the home is saturated, and through tiny cracks or holes in the wall, it is finding it's way into the room. He went on to say that American Waterworks could certainly help. First, Dustin recommended the use of our WaterGuard drainage system. WaterGuard is an award-winning, patented below-floor drain that rests in the bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. By installing the drain at this point, the drain is out of the "mud zone" where similar drains tend to clog. It works to catch water entering through the wall or ground, directing it to the homeowner's sump pump. Dustin's second recommendation was our CleanSpace vapor barrier. This 100% waterproof tarp-like material gets adhered directly to the problem walls. It collects water entering the room through the holes or cracks in the wall, and directs the water downward and into the WaterGuard, which drains the water from the space. The homeowner liked the sound of the plan and decided to schedule his project for several weeks later. 

On the day of the project, the homeowner was thrilled when our Foreman, Luis, and his team completed the installation with no issues. Now, our customer's room boasts 99ft of WaterGuard and another 99ft of CleanSpace, all working to keep water where it belongs...not on the floor!

A homeowner in Burnsville, MN, had noticed that his sidewalk had begun sinking and was worried it would be a tripping hazard. He decided to look into concrete repair services in the area and came upon our website. He was impressed with our "Before and After" photos and decided to schedule his FREE estimate. 

Our Design Specialist, Nate B., arrived at the home in a couple of weeks to assess the sidewalk. He informed the homeowner that one of the common causes of a sinking sidewalk is soil compaction and settling. When a soil's load-bearing capacity exceeds, the soil compacts and settles. As the soil expands and contracts beneath your concrete, it will cause the slab to sink and heave. Due to this, Nate recommended our PolyLevel, which is a high-density polyurethane formula that stabilizes and lifts concrete slabs. The homeowner was grateful for Nate's explanation and decided to move forward with his design. 

In about a month, our Foreman, Dylon M., and his crew arrived at the home. They lifted the concrete by first drilling small holes into the slab. Then, PolyLevel is injected and expands between the soil and concrete slab, causing it to lift. Once they were done, they concealed the holes back up with concrete. Finally, after the sidewalk was all leveled, the crew cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

In Saint Paul, MN, a homeowner had noticed that her sidewalk had begun sinking, and she was concerned it would cause a tripping hazard for her children. She decided to ask her friends and family if they knew a good concrete repair company that could fix the issue, and she was recommended American Waterworks. She looked into our website and was impressed with our "Before and After" photos and decided to take advantage of our FREE estimate and to schedule hers. 

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Romeo V., arrived at the home to inspect the sidewalk. He informed the homeowner that one of the common causes of sinking concrete is soil washout. When it rains and water moves through the ground under the concrete slab, it can wash away the supporting soils holding up the concrete. As this continues, it creates empty spaces and voids and, over time, causes the concrete to sink or cave in. Romeo recommended our PolyLevel to lift the concrete and our NexusPro to seal the joints and cracks. The homeowner was grateful for Romeo's explanation and decided to move forward with his design. Romeo's design was then sent to our Foreman, Dylon V.

In about a month, Dylon and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They first began lifting the concrete by drilling small holes into the slab. Then, our PolyLevel is injected and expands in the space between the soil and slab, lifting the concrete. Then, the crew sealed the joints and cracks using NexusPro and concealed the small holes with concrete. Once they were done, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Now, our customer can have peace of mind knowing her children can run around the sidewalk without any tripping hazards. Are you experiencing something similar? Click HERE to claim your FREE estimate!

A homeowner in Farmington, MN, was facing multiple issues with concrete, such as sinking stairs and an uneven sidewalk. She decided to search for "concrete lifting services in the area" and found our website. After browsing our website, she was impressed with our "Before and After" photos and decided to schedule her FREE estimate. 

Our Design Specialist, Romeo V., arrived at the home on the scheduled date and conducted a thorough inspection of the porch and sidewalk. He explained to the homeowner that it is common to see those issues due to soil compaction and settling. When a soil's load-bearing capacity exceeds, it expands and contracts beneath the concrete slab. Over time, it causes the concrete to sink and heave and, in most cases, form cracks in one or more parts of the slab. For this reason, Romeo suggested PolyLevel to lift the concrete and NexusPro to seal the cracks and joints. The homeowner happily agreed and decided to move forward with his design.

In about a month, our Foreman, Dylon V., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They lifted the concrete by drilling small holes into the slab. The injection ports are then installed, and PolyLevel is injected beneath the slab. The PolyLevel then expands and fills the space in the soil and lifts the slab. Once this was completed, the crew ensured the slab was leveled before sealing the holes with concrete. Lastly, the crew uses NexusPro to seal the cracks and joints around the stairs and on the sidewalk. After the crew was done, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Romeo V., arrived at the home to asses the walkway and driveway. He informed the homeowner that one of the common causes of concrete damage is soil washout. When it rains or floods, water moves through the ground beneath the concrete slabs and washes away the supporting soils. Over time, this causes empty gaps in the soil, eventually leading to the slab sinking. To fix this issue, Romeo recommended our PolyLevel to lift the concrete and NexusPro to repair the cracks and seal the joints. Our PolyLevel and NexusPro are both high-durability, long-lasting solutions that will leave concrete smooth and leveled. The homeowner happily agreed to Romeo's suggestion and decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Dylon V., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They began by drilling small holes into the slab and placing the injection ports.

Lastly, the crew uses NexusPro to seal the cracks and joints. After they were done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Mitch S., arrived at the home to inspect the walkway and garage flooring.

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Kyle P., arrived at the home to conduct a thorough inspection and to answer any questions the homeowner had. He explained to the homeowner that it was good to address settling concrete right away as it would only continue to worsen and not only be a trip hazard but impact the home's curb appeal and resale value. The homeowner agreed and after Kyle was done with the inspection, he created a proposal suggesting our PolyLevel to lift the settling slabs, NexusPro, to seal the joints to provide a seamless look, and SealantPro, to protect the concrete and increase its life span. After reviewing Kyle's proposal, the homeowner happily agreed and scheduled the date of the installation.

In about a month, our Foreman, Ryan T., and his crew arrived at the home to apply SealantPro. SealantPro protects concrete as it is stain and UV-resistant. As this is applied it leaves a green tint to ensure that our crew is applying the product evenly. However, once it is dry, it becomes clear and the green tint is no longer visible! In about another month, our Foreman, Dylon V., and his crew arrived to install PolyLevel and NexusPro. They began by drilling small holes into the concrete slabs and inserting injection ports into the holes. PolyLevel is then injected beneath the slab, expanding and filling in the empty spaces in the soil causing the slab to lift to the desired level. The crew then seals the holes with cement. Lastly, they used NexusPro to seal the joints. Once they were done, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.
