Cracked Driveway Gets Restored in Barnesville, MN

A homeowner from Barnesville, MN, was dealing with a deteriorating driveway. His driveway had been sinking over the years and had begun cracking as a result. The homeowner no longer wanted to deal with the eyesore and decided to look into what options might be out there. One day, he found himself at the Red River Valley Home + Garden Show in Fargo, ND. While perusing the booths, he ended up at the American Waterworks booth and spoke to our Design Specialist, Kole, about his concrete issue. He and Kole set up a time for Kole to come out to his home to see the concrete. 

Once the day arrived, Kole got right to work completing his inspection. When he finished, he explained to the homeowner that concrete can sink for a variety of reasons but that we could help fix the issue with the help of our PolyLevel method. He explained that PolyLevel is a dense polyurethane foam that expands when it's injected beneath sinking concrete slabs. It works to fill voids left over by soil erosion and slowly lifts sunken concrete back to it's desired location. Kole went on to say that our team recommends the application of NexusPro. This silicone-based sealant gets applied to the cracks and joints of the newly lifted concrete and works to protect the vulnerable soil below by preventing water from getting between the slabs. The homeowner liked the sound of Kole's plan and scheduled the job for the Spring. 

When the snow melted and warm weather returned, our Foreman, CJ, and his team were able to complete the lift and level with no issues. Now our homeowner can look at his driveway fondly, knowing the cracks have been sealed.

Richie suggested that the cracks be filled, and the sidewalk lifted. The homeowner agreed with Richie's suggestions. Once they earned the stamp of approval, the plans were directed to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Charlie, and his crew arrived at the home to begin the PolyLevel installation.

Cracked and Sunken Driveway Gets Sealed Up In Blomkest, MN

Karen's driveway was uneven and had significant cracks, and she wanted to fix the problem before it worsened. She called American Waterworks and claimed her FREE estimate for a thorough inspection. Our Design Specialist, Skylar, headed to the property to inspect the driveway and recommend solutions to prevent the concrete slab from worsening. Once completed, Skylar recommended Karen invest in our PolyLevel solution and finish with our NexusPro solution. She got all her questions answered and agreed with the solution, and the team came out to her home shortly after.

Led by Foreman Patrick, our poly crew then strategically drilled holes into the concrete slabs that had sinkage to inject the PolyLevel Solution. The PolyLevel solution is an expanding polyurethane foam injected underneath the concrete slabs to fill the voids underneath the slab caused by soil erosion. Once the polyurethane was injected, the crew finished the project by sealing the cracks and joints with our NexusPro solution. NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant formulated for flexibility and longevity to survive harsh weather conditions, helping ensure that the concrete will stay raised. 

Karen was happy with the results of her driveway and glad her peace of mind was restored.

Concrete Saved in Fairfax, MN

A homeowner in Fairfax, MN, did not like the look of their cracked and uneven concrete. Wanting to get a headstart of the project, the homeowner began looking for the best options for their situation. After coming up empty, the homeowner was looking through their social media when they came across one of our PolyLevel installations. Interested in our PolyLevel services, the homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. After the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of Kevin, one of our Design Specialists. Once Kevin arrived, he began evaluating the concrete to find the cause of the issue. Kevin discovered that the concrete was sinking due to soil settlement. To stop the concrete from sinking further, Kevin recommended that the concrete be lifted using the PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam injection solution. Wanting to avoid replacing the entire slab, the homeowner agreed and production commenced. Our Foreman, Dylon, and his crew were assigned to complete the project. The crew began by inserting the PolyLevel underneath the driveway and the sidewalk. After the PolyLevel installation was completed, the crew took out the old joints and replaced them with the NexusPro Joint Sealant. The NexusPro Joint Sealant is a silicone-based sealant that is specially formulated to provide long-lasting flexibility and stand up to harsh weather. Once all the joints were replaced, the crew went ahead and cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowners were pleased with the great work completed by the crew.

Lowering Driveway in Emerado, ND

A homeowner in Emerado, ND, was mowing their lawn when they noticed a gap between their driveway and garage. Wanting to resolve the issue before winter, the homeowners signed up for American Waterworks' FREE estimate to see if the driveway could be lifted. Our Design Specialist, James, went out to inspect the area.  After the inspection, James determined the whole driveway would need to be lifted.  The homeowners agreed and the crew began construction.
