Experienced Foundation Repair & Waterproofing Company in Eden Prairie, MN

In Eden Prairie, MN, a homeowner had learned that radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the US and is found in homes. Concerned that their family was unknowingly breathing in the toxic air, the homeowner decided to purchase a radon testing kit and test the levels in their home. After a couple of days, the test results were above 4pCi/L, and the homeowner began looking into radon mitigation system installers in the area and found us. Impressed by our thousands of 5-star reviews, the homeowner contacted our Appointment Center to schedule their FREE estimate.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Greg G., arrived at the home to conduct a thorough inspection of the home. During the inspection, Greg explained the importance of taking action against radon, as it is a hidden threat that claims 21,000 lives annually in the US. To protect your family, a radon mitigation system is the perfect solution to expel radon before it can enter the home, effectively reducing the levels. After working closely with the homeowner, Greg recommended installing the radon mitigation fan in the attic of the garage and connecting it to the sump pump system in the basement. This is installed this way so that our system can suction out the radon gas beneath the home and expel it above the roofline and stop it from entering the home. Confident in our team, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Gus R., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. During the installation, the crew began by drilling a small hole in the sump pump system and connecting a PVC pipe. Then the pipe is connected to the fan that is installed above the attic in the garage. After those have been connected, another PVC pipe is installed from the fan to the roof. After the crew successfully installed the radon mitigation fan, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

A homeowner in Eden Prairie, MN, knew it was time to repair their sunken and damaged concrete. Knowing they needed a professional, the homeowner began looking into "cracked concrete repair near me". One of the first companies to catch their attention was us, American Waterworks. Impressed with our stellar ratings and reviews, the homeowner knew we were the ideal company for their project. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Dylan. A few weeks later, Dylan promptly arrived at the home and began the thorough inspection of the basement. During the inspection, Dylan confirmed that several areas were suffering from settlement. To prevent the settlement from continuing, Dylan recommended installing GeoLock Wall Anchors and PolyLevel. Knowing this was their best plan of action, the homeowner decided to go ahead with Dylan's recommendations. Next, Dylan passed the proposal to our Logistics team to build and schedule the project. Our Logistics team gave the final stamp of approval, then the plans were sent to our Foreman, Jose, and his crew. When the installation date arrived, Jose and his crew began installing the GeoLock Wall Anchors. 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 directly through the ground. Once the GeoLocks are secured, the soil is put back on top of the ground. Along with the GeoLock installation, the homeowner asked that the tightening kit be included as well. This will allow the homeowner to straighten their walls over time. Next, the crew shifted to installing PolyLevel underneath the sinking slabs. 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 filling the cracks and 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. Once the PolyLevel was secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted to know their basement was no longer at risk.

A homeowner in Eden Prairie, MN, was inspecting their basement following heavy rainfall and discovered their walls and floors were damp. Concerned by this discovery, the homeowner knew they needed professional assistance. The homeowner looked into several waterproofing companies near Eden Prairie and our company stuck out compared to the rest. After realizing we were the best choice for them, the homeowner decided to call our Appointment Center and sign up for their FREE estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Kevin, to the home to investigate the basement. Following his detailed walk-through, Kevin determined the basement required professional basement waterproofing. Kevin proposed his plan to the homeowner and they agreed. After earning the homeowner's approval, the plans were sent to the office for additional approval. After the office finalized the project, they were passed along to our Foreman, Chris, and his crew. The crew traveled to the home and began the waterproofing project. Once they arrived, 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. 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 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 tied to the WaterGuard system into the new SuperSump+. Next, the crew installed CleanSpace on the unfinished basement walls. CleanSpace is a washable liner that can conform to bumpy or cracked walls and is installed with permanent drilled-in fasteners. The crew installs CleanSpace by mechanically attaching them to basement walls with plastic drilled-in fasteners. Once the CleanSpace was attached, the crew could clean up their materials and leave the home. The homeowner was in awe of the excellent work completed by the crew.

After a heavy rain, a homeowner in Eden Prairie, MN, found that their basement showed signs of water intrusion. To prevent any further damage, the homeowners began searching for an expert opinion. On their way home one evening, the homeowners noticed several American Waterworks yard signs throughout the neighborhood. Taking notice, the homeowners decided to do some investigating and see all the services we offer. Impressed by our previous work, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. As soon as the details were finalized, we sent one of our Design Specialists, Eric, to inspect the status of the level of water damage in the basement. Following his analysis, Eric found that was seeping into the basement and needed to be repaired. Eric recommended several versions of his solution to the homeowners and they picked the one that was best fit for their situation. Then, Eric sent the plan to the assigned crew and production commenced. Our Foreman, Jeremiah, and his crew arrived at the home and started by prepping the basement for the WaterGuard installation. The WaterGuard is an award-winning, below-floor drain that rests in a bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. To begin the installation, the crew digs a channel along the footing of the west wall. Once the channel is dug, the crew can put the WaterGuard into place. Once in place, the crew covered the WaterGuard channels with rocks and cement. Next, the crew shifted their focus to installing the SuperSump Plus to tie into the current water system. The SuperSump Plus is engineered to assist in keeping the basement dry and healthy for extended periods and in heavy water intrusion. To prevent freezing or clogged discharge lines, the crew installed the IceGuard, an anti-freezing fitting that is installed on the outside of your home and ejects water away from the foundation. To finish the project, the crew installed CleanSpace along the entire west wall. CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof plastic vapor barrier that is perfect for unfinished basement walls. The crew installs CleanSpace by mechanically attaching them to the walls with plastic rilled-in fasteners, so it won't fall off the wall. Once the crew finished the installation, they cleaned up their job site and left the home. If you are experiencing a similar issue, sign up for your FREE estimate today! 

Jon W. in Eden Prairie, MN had a large crack through the concrete on his steps and his concrete had started sinking, causing a trip hazard. He previously had his stoop mud-jacked, but he was having problems again. He started looking for another concrete repair contractor to see what his options were, and he was directed to American Waterworks. He was curious to learn more about our PolyLevel concrete repair, so he contacted us to receive a free estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Rick Weber, to his home to assess his concrete situation and develop a solution. Jon was glad to learn that PolyLevel is a durable, faster, and more affordable alternative to traditional concrete repair, so he scheduled a date for the installation.

Our Foreman, Brandon Wiskow, drilled small holes into the concrete on his stoop where he needed to inject the foam. He injected our PolyLevel into the holes until the concrete slab was level. Then, he sealed the cracks in the concrete with our Nexus Pro sealant, which protects the concrete and gives it a nice, finished look. The process only took about half a day, and now Jon will be able to enjoy level concrete for years to come.
