A homeowner in Osage, IA, noticed that their patio and sidewalk were settling and sinking. Worried this would turn into a tripping hazard, the homeowner knew they needed to find an expert to provide them with a solution. After looking into "concrete repair near me", one of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks.

Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Nathan. The following week, Nathan traveled to the home to begin the thorough inspection.

First, Patrick and his crew started by inserting PolyLevel below 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. Patrick and his crew utilized NexusPro, 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. Finally, Patrick and his crew cleaned up their materials and left the home.

A homeowner in Osage, IA, was in his basement when he noticed that the cracks along his foundation walls had grown larger and expanded to other areas of the wall. Concerned for its stability, the homeowner decided to look into foundation repair services in the area and found us.
