Uneven Porch Lifted in Ham Lake, MN

A homeowner in Ham Lake, MN, had noticed that her porch was uneven with a few of the slabs settling. She was concerned that it would pose a tripping hazard to friends and family and decided to look for concrete services in the area. She came upon our website and was impressed with our 5-star reviews. Soon after browsing through our website, she decided to schedule her FREE estimate. 

Our Design Specialist, Gary S., arrived at the home on the scheduled date and conducted a thorough inspection of the basement. He informed the homeowner that one of the common causes of this issue is soil compaction and settling. When a soil's load-bearing capacity is exceeded, it causes the supporting soils of the concrete slab to expand and contract. Eventually, this leads to the slab sinking. For this reason, Gary suggested our PolyLevel to lift the concrete and NexusPro to seal the joints. The homeowner happily agreed and decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Troy J., and his crew arrived at the home. They began by drilling small holes into the slab and installing the injection ports. PolyLevel is then injected beneath the slab, filling in the space and lifting the concrete. Once it has been lifted, the crew ensures the slab is leveled before sealing the holes with concrete. Lastly, the crew uses NexusPro to seal the joints and provide a seamless look. Once the crew was done with the installations, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

A homeowner in Andover, MN, noticed their concrete was beginning to lower. Worried this would become a major tripping hazard, the homeowners knew they needed to find a professional solution. Unsure who to work with, the homeowner looked into "concrete leveling near me". One of the first companies to catch their eye was us, American Waterworks. Impressed with our before and afters, the homeowner knew we would be the ideal company for their project. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Gary. Gary promptly arrived at the home and began the thorough inspection of the exterior concrete. During the inspection, Gary confirmed the concrete was sinking and leading to uneven slabs. Gary recommended installing PolyLevel to lift the slabs back into place. Knowing this was the best plan of action, the homeowner decided to go ahead with Gary's recommendations. Next, Gary passed the proposal to our Logisitcs team to build and finalize the project. Our Logistics team built the project and then scheduled it with our Foreman, Patrick. A few weeks later, Patrick and his crew traveled to the home to begin the project. First, Patrick and his crew started by installing PolyLevel underneath the sinking sidewalk. Once the PolyLevel was installed, the crew shifted to taking out the old joints and replacing them with NexusPro. As soon as all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was in awe of the excellent work completed by the crew.

Concrete Walkway Lifted and Leveled in Belle Plaine, MN

A customer from Belle Plaine, MN got in contact with us when he began to notice his walkway leading up to his house was sinking, creating a sizable gap between the stair and the walkway. When he called in, we set him up with our FREE estimate, entitling him to a thorough inspection of the issue by one of our Design Specialists. Once the appointment was set, our Design Specialist, headed out to the property to assess the issue. When completed, he let our customer know that the reason the concrete was sinking was due to faulty soil underneath. He informed him that this could be due to excessive heat, water intrusion, or poorly compacted soil from when the home was built. He recommended the use of our PolyLevel injection to correct the problem. Our Design Specialist explained that this modern approach utilized an expanding polyurethane foam to raise the slab back to its original state. He went on to say that this method is far less invasive than alternative remedies. Our customer agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Dylon, began the process by drilling strategic holes into the concrete walkway. Next, he injected the foam into the hole and closely monitored the lifting process, making sure the slab returned to where it should be. 

Once completed, our customer was happy to know he had eliminated the gap and could go back to safely using his concrete slab! 

Sunken Driveway Restored in Wayzata, MN

Wyllie R. in Wayzata, MN had a concrete driveway that was sinking. It had already sunk about two inches below the garage concrete slabs and it was getting worse over time. A friend of his mentioned what a good experience they had working with American Waterworks, so he decided to give us a call for a free estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Chad Johnson, to his home to assess his sinking concrete and design a solution. Chad assured him that we could raise and level his concrete within a matter of hours using our PolyLevel foam injection. Wyllie was pleased to hear this, so he scheduled a date for the injection.

One of our PolyLevel experts, Brandon Wiskow, drilled small holes into his concrete driveway to inject the foam. Next, he injected the foam until the driveway was once again level with the garage floor. Lastly, he filled the cracks in the concrete with our Nexus Pro sealant. PolyLevel is a durable, faster and more affordable alternative to traditional concrete repair. Wyllie was pleased with the result and how quick the process was. He can now enjoy level concrete for years to come!
