GeoLocks to Repair Foundation in Altoona, WI

In Altoona, WI, a homeowner had noticed a long horizontal crack on their basement walls. Knowing the issue would persist without the right long-term solution, the homeowner began looking into foundation repair experts in the area and found us. Impressed by our 5-star reviews and awards, the homeowner contacted us to schedule their FREE estimate.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Jesse W., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, he took a close look at the foundation walls, determining where the cracks are and which walls needed stabilizing. Jesse recommended installing GeoLock, our warranted wall anchoring system that is designed to transfer the pressure against the foundation to stable soil several feet away. Confident in our team, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, one of our crews arrived at the home to carry out the installation. The crew began by digging a hole several feet away from the foundation. Then, the earth anchor is placed and connected to the interior wall plate using small steel rods. Once these are connected and tightened, the crew installs the rest of the wall anchors. They were able to successfully install 7 GeoLocks.

GeoLock Wall Anchor Installation in Bangor, WI

Scott from Bangor, WI had severe cracks in his foundation and his basement walls were caving in, causing Scott to worry about the structural integrity of his barn. This issue with his foundation caused water to enter the farm's basement, making the soil wet and unstable for the barn. Scott then got in contact with the Appointment Center here at American Waterworks to claim his FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Dustin Loftus. Dustin went to his farm and did a thorough inspection and get a proper diagnosis of the situation to help Scott. Once the situation was carefully inspected, Dustin proposed that the solution for the damaged wall was the installation of our GeoLock Wall Anchors. Scott was confident in the proposal and scheduled an installation date right away. 

Our Foreman, Jose Castillo, and his production team then began the project by stabilizing the wall to prevent the wall from further caving in during the process of installation. The production crew then drilled 6 holes through the foundation into the hard-packed soil to install the six GeoLocks that are needed. At the end of each rod was a GeoLock Anchor which helps stabilize and straighten the foundation wall. Once the GeoLocks had been placed and secured, the production team then dug the soil to expose the exterior of the failing wall and be able to waterproof the failing wall to prevent water from seeping through. Once finished with this process. the production team then patched and sealed the cracks on the failing wall. 

Scott was very satisfied with the work done and was not worried that the foundation of his barn would cave in!!
