Crawl Space Gets Fixed in St. Paul, MN
A homeowner from St. Paul, MN got in touch with us when he noticed that his floor over his crawl space was beginning to slope inwards. Concerned that the issue might be tough to fix, the homeowner got in touch with us to see if we could help. We set him up with our FREE estimate and a few weeks later our Design Specialist, Daniel, headed out to the home to see what could be done.
After Daniel completed his inspection, he let the homeowner know that he was experiencing slopping floors because the beams that held up the ceiling of the crawl space had been compromised. Daniel went on to say that water intrusion had led the wooden beams to rot. He explained that he had a few options to restore the stability of the crawl space and ensure that water intrusion would be a thing of the past. Daniel laid out his plan and started by recommending our SmartJack Crawl Space Stabilizers to address the sloping. He informed the homeowner that our SmartJack is an adjustable supplemental support beam specifically used for sagging crawl spaces, as it can often lift failing floor joists or beams, restoring them to their original position. Made with strong, corrosion-resistant, galvanized steel, these beams do not develop rust, and remain adjustable for years should you need to perform future adjustments. Next, he recommended using our Crawl Space Waterproofing systems, a combination of crawl space vapor barrier, crawl space drainage matting, and our SmartPipe drain. Daniel explained that these products work hand in hand to eliminate unwanted water from the space and provide a healthy, clean, and insulated crawl space. The homeowner agreed and work began a few weeks later.
Our Foreman, Jeromy, and his team began the process by installing 14 of our SmartJacks throughout the crawl space of the home. Next, they laid 776 sqft of drainage matting and another 1040 sqft of vapor barrier throughout the space. Now that the job is completed our homeowner is elated to know he no longer needs to worry about the structural integrity of his home!
Sinking Walkway Gets Lifted in Saint Paul, MN
A homeowner from Saint Paul, MN, was noticing dangerous trip hazards forming beyond a set of concrete stairs, leading to her backyard. Not wanting anyone to take an unnecessary tumble, she decided to get in touch with a company to fix the issue. On the recommendation of a family member, she got in touch with American Waterworks, set up her FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Canon T, headed out to the home to assess the concrete.
Once his inspection concluded, Canon informed the homeowner that we could remedy the sinking concrete by using our PolyLevel. Canon explained that PolyLevel is a dense, polyurethane foam that expands when injected beneath sinking concrete, filling voids left by soil erosion and slowly lifting the slab back into place. He went on to say that we finish all of our lifts with the application of our NexusPro. A silicone-based sealant, NexusPro gets applied to the cracks and joints of the concrete and works to prevent unwanted debris or moisture from getting beneath the slab, potentially comprising the lift. The homeowner liked the sound of the plan, and the job was scheduled to be completed a month or so later.
On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Jordan, and his team were able to complete the lift and seal with no complications. Now our homeowner can breathe easy knowing her trip hazards have been fixed!
Sinking Concrete Patio Gets Transformed in Maplewood, MN
A homeowner from Maplewood, MN, was beginning to notice that a section of her concrete patio was beginning to sink. She had been aware of the issue for a few years and had kept a close eye on it. The concrete had sunken more and was now becoming a huge tripping hazard. Now wanting to sacrifice safety in her outdoor oasis, the homeowner decided to find a company to fix the problem. One day, she saw an American Waterworks ad on TV and decided to give us a call to set up her FREE estimate appointment. A few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Kyle P, headed out to the home.
Once Kyle completed his walkthrough, he met with the homeowner to let her know that we could fix the sinking patio with the help of our PolyLevel method. PolyLevel is a dense, polyurethane foam that expands when injected beneath sinking slabs, filling voids left by soil erosion and slowly lifting the slab back into place. He went on to say that we completed our lifts with the installation of our NexusPro. This silicone-based sealant gets applied directly to the cracks and joints in the concrete and works to keep moisture and debris away from the soil beneath the slab. The homeowner agreed with Kyle's plan and scheduled the work to be completed a few weeks later.
On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Sam, and his team were able to lift and seal the entire patio. Now our customer can relax in her outdoor space without worrying about trip hazards!

Concrete Leveling in Maplewood, MN
A homeowner in Maplewood, MN, noticed the walkway leading into their home was uneven and separating. Worried about the long-term damages, the homeowner knew they looked into "concrete leveling near me". At the top of the list stood us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided they needed to take a closer look at our services. Impressed with our five-star ratings and reviews, the homeowner knew we were the ideal company for the project. Next, the homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate on our website. After the estimate was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of Dustin, one of our Design Specialists. Dustin arrived at the home and started the thorough inspection of the basement. During his thorough inspection, Dustin discovered several areas suffering from settlement. To prevent this settlement from continuing, Dustin recommended installing PolyLevel underneath the struggling concrete. After considering all their options, the homeowner knew this was their best option. Once they approved the proposal, it was sent to our Logistics team to approve and build the project. The details were finalized, then the project was scheduled for a few weeks later. As soon as the project date arrived, our Foreman, Patrick, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Patrick and his crew made sure the walkway was ready for installation. Next, Patrick and his crew installed PolyLevel underneath the struggling sidewalk. Once the PolyLevel was secured, the crew shifted their focus to installing NexusPro in the sidewalk walk cracks. Finally, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is delighted to help lift and level its customers' damaged concrete.
PolyLevel Lifts and Restores Concrete in Saint Paul, MN
Bill S. in Saint Paul, MN contacted American Waterworks after being referred to us by a previous customer. His driveway and patio were sunken and uneven. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Ryan Powell, to inspect the concrete and give Bill a FREE estimate. Bill was impressed with Ryan’s proposal and our PolyLevel concrete repair solution, so he moved forward with the project.
One of our PolyLevel experts, Trevor Ellingson, began the project by drilling small, penny-sized holes into the concrete and injected the polymer foam until the concrete was raised and level. Then, he sealed the cracks with our NexusPro sealant which protects the concrete and gives it a beautiful, finished look. Bill loved the results of the project, and he is glad he chose American Waterworks to help restore his driveway.
