Sunken Patio Causes Staircase Void in Worthington, MN

Before	After

This concrete patio slab has sunk nearly 3" over time, causing water to pool near the home's foundation and a 3 inch void between the concrete and landscaping block of the attached staircase.  Our Team was able to raise the concrete patio slab over 4 inches with our trusted PolyLEVEL System to allow for proper drainage after it rains and raised the staircase enough to fill the initial void.  

Cracked Wall Restored in Worthington, MN

Before	After

Ray L. in Worthington, MN was concerned about two large cracks from the top of the foundation to the bottom on one wall in his home. While researching foundation repair options, he contacted American Waterworks for a FREE estimate. We sent our Design Specialist, Dylan Woitas, to his home to inspect the foundation and provide Ray with a solution. 

Ray was happy with Dylan’s proposal and the PowerBrace™ Wall Repair System that we offer. He set a date with our production crew to install the adjustable steel I-beam system which stabilized the tilting wall and over time will force the wall sections back to their original position. The PowerBraces do not require outside excavation, so it is less invasive than other foundation repair options. It’s anti-corrosion zinc coating will keep them looking like new for decades to come!

Basement Waterproofed and Foundation Restored in Worthington, MN

Before	After

John S. of Worthington, MN had water leaking into his basement and cracked foundation walls, making him feel nervous about water moisture and the structural build of his home. He did some research online and came across American Waterworks. He called our office staff and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Eric Hazelton. Eric went to his home, examined the problems, and came up with a solution that fit his home repair needs. John was confident in Eric's proposal, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his production team began the project by cutting out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which is made to prevent water clogs, serve as an underground drain, and collect water leakage from basement walls. Next, our crew installed our CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier, which is made to prevent humidity and mold build-up, cover any holes or divots, and provide the room with a neat and clean appearance. Lastly, Juan and his team installed our foundation repair PowerBraces. Our PowerBraces are made to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. PowerBraces can be tightened over time to make bowing or tilting walls straighter and more vertical. To complete the project, our team covered the open floor gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. John was thrilled with the project!
