SmartJacks Installed in Rochester, MN

Terri Z. in Rochester, MN had recently purchased a new home, but noticed some uneven floors and was concerned about the crawl space and structural integrity. She attended the Rochester Area Builders Home Show, saw our booth, and contacted our Customer Care Center to set up a FREE inspection. Terri met with one of our Design Specialists, Eric Hazelton, who worked side by side with her to construct a unique and permanent solution for her home. 

Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his production crew were able to successfully stabilize Terri’s crawl space by installing 18 SmartJacks throughout the space. The SmartJack Crawl Space Stabilizer is an adjustable supplemental support system used for sagging crawl spaces. The SmartJack can be installed year-round, and it’s portable size allows it to be installed in even the tightest of crawl spaces. Our foundation repair systems are backed by a lifetime warranty, so Terri can rest easy knowing her new home is protected. 

Foundation Wall Cracks Repaired in Rochester, MN

Ginger L. of Rochester, MN had cracks in their foundation wall, and they wanted to get them fixed before it got any worse. They found American Waterworks on the web, so they requested a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Mac. Mac went to Ginger's home, carefully inspected their wall, and proposed our wall anchor system. Ginger got all of their questions answered, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Raul A, and his crew installed nine of our wall anchors and their hide-a-way covers. Our covers provide a nice, finishing touch to the installation and it still allows for periodic tightening of the system. This system is made to stabilize and straighten cracked and bowing foundation walls. Since they are such a versatile system, they are able to solve several foundation problems. Ginger was happy with the work and had a great experience with our team!

Failing Wall Stabilized in Rochester, MN

A homeowner from Rochester, MN gave us a call when they noticed his crawl space wall was showing signs of failure. He was afraid that if the issue went unresolved, he would run the risk of compromising the structural integrity of the home. When he called, we set him up with our FREE estimate. Next, our Design Specialist, Dustin, headed out to the house to complete a thorough inspection of the issue. When he had finished his walkthrough, he recommended the homeowner use our C-Channel anchor system. He explained that this system provides a permanent solution for bowing, buckling, tilting, or inward-moving foundation walls that are demonstrating signs of extreme wall failure. He went on to say that this system works to immediately stabilize walls by pushing in at the bottom, as well as anchoring deep in the soil. Our customer agreed and work began shortly after.
