Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN was not pleased with how his driveway had been looking. Not only were there large cracks in multiple areas of the concrete, but an unevenness between his garage and driveway. Rather than leave it to sit and continue to worsen, he decided to find a business that could help fix the problem. He noticed that American Waterworks, a name he was familiar with, offered a FREE no obligation estimate service for homeowners wanting to walk through a plan before beginning the repairs. The homeowner scheduled his appointment and was greeted weeks later by one of our expert Design Specialists, Mike Dexter. Mike suggested to him that to achieve the desired results, PolyLevel, a high-density polyurethane foam to lift the surface, and NexusPro, a silicone-based sealant to fill in extra spaces and cracks, would be the best course of action. The homeowner also expressed that he wanted to add extra protection to extend the lifespan of the driveway after the repairs were done. Mike explained that SealantPro would help permanently protect it from water, dirt, and other contaminants in a single coat. The homeowner agreed to the plans and our Foreman, Ryan Trogstad, along with his crew, arrived at the home to carry out the installations. Pleased with the result of his now sleek looking driveway, the homeowner was happy he chose American Waterworks to take on this project.

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN, got in touch with us when he realized a piece of uneven concrete in his walkway was creating a trip hazard. Not wanting anyone to take a tumble, he decided to begin the hunt for a company that could help. After finding our website, he decided to take advantage of our FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Brad W, headed out to the home. 

After Brad finished his walkthrough, he met with the homeowner to give him his recommendation. Brad informed the homeowner that American Waterworks could fix his issue using our PolyLevel lifting solution. PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that expands when injected beneath sinking concrete slabs, filling voids left by soil erosion and slowly lifting the slab back into place. Brad finished by saying that we finished our lifting process by installing our NexusPro. A silicone-based sealant, NexusPro gets applied to cracks and joints in the concrete slab, preventing unwanted elements from getting below the slab. The homeowner agreed and work was scheduled to begin a few weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Jordan S, and his team completed the lift with no complications. Now our customers can enjoy their concrete walkway, free of trips!

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.

A customer from Minneapolis, MN got in contact with us when he began to notice that his front walkway was sinking away from his front steps, creating a tripping hazard and pooling water. He was afraid that if he left the issue unresolved, he would risk worsening the hazard. When he called in we set him up with our FREE estimate. Once his appointment was scheduled, we sent our Design Specialist, Mike, out to the property to see what could be done. Once he had completed his inspection, he recommended that our customer think of using our PolyLevel solution to lift the walkway. Mike explained that our PolyLevel is an expanding polyurethane foam that is injected beneath the concrete to fill the gaps caused by soil erosion and raise and stabilize the concrete surface. Our customer agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Ben, and his Co-Foreman, Jake, began the process of lifting the walkway by strategically drilling holes into the problem slab. Next, they injected the foam into the holes, making sure to pay close attention to the lifting process to avoid overcorrecting. Once the process was done, our customer was happy to know that he didn't need to work about tripping hazards in front of his home anymore! 

A homeowner in Fridley, MN, knew their home needed serious help. Knowing they had an extensive list of issues, the homeowner wanted to find a company that could fix them all. During their hunt, the homeowner came across our website and was impressed with our extensive list of services. Soon after, the homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. After the appointment was set, we sent one of our Design Specialist, Jesse, to perform an inspection of the foundation and sidewalk. Jesse arrived at the home and introduced himself to the homeowner, then began the inspection. Following his detailed inspection Jesse found that their foundation was struggling and the sidewalk was sinking. 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. To lift and level the sidewalk, the crew utilized PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam injection solution. After the crew successfully lifted and leveled the sidewalk, they cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the wonderful work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to assist its customers with multiple issues in their homes.
