Bowing Foundation Wall Repair in Mankato, MN

Dave C. in Mankato, MN had two bowing foundation walls in his basement. He had heard about American Waterworks and the foundation repair that we do, so he contacted us to get a FREE estimate.

Our Design Specialist, Eric Hazelton, went onsite to inspect his foundation problem. Eric developed a plan to install 11 wall anchors throughout his basement to ensure his foundation would be permanently stable. Dave agreed that was the best option, so an installation date was set. 

The installation process only took one day. Dave was pleased that he could already see a drastic improvement once the anchors were tightened. Wall anchors are a permanent solution that are backed by a lifetime guarantee, so Dave can rest easy knowing that his foundation is stable.

Basement Waterproofing and Foundation Repair in Mankato, MN

Homeowners James and Rachel D. of Mankato, MN had water leaking through the cracks of their foundation walls, causing them to worry about water damage and the stability of their home. They got in contact with our office staff and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Jared. Jared went to James and Rachel's house, inspected their problems, and designed a solution that worked for them and their budget. They were confident in Jared's proposal and were comfortable with our products and their warranties, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Juan, and his production team started the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a waterway trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System, which serves as an underground drain and collects water seepage from basement walls. Next, Juan and his crew installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the entire wall perimeter. Our CleanSpace is made to prevent mold and humidity and serves as an extra wall protectant while saving money on energy bills. Lastly, our team dug holes outside of the home beyond the foundation and inserted a long, metal rod from the inside foundation to each hole outside of the home. On the ends of the rod in the soil, our team installed an anchor plate, which holds the rod in place in the soil. Inside the basement, our team installed a GeoLock Channel Anchor on each rod to stabilize the wall. The combination of our production crew, the anchor plates, rods, and wall anchors work together to straighten the wall back into its original position. To complete the installation, our crew filled the open floor gaps with pea gravel and river rock and applied new concrete over them. 

James and Rachel had a great experience with our team and their peace of mind is restored!

Sump Pump Installation in Mankato, MN

Nick L. of Mankato, MN had a sump pump that was not working properly and was in need of a new one. He got in contact with our office staff and got a FREE inspection scheduled with Shane, one of our Design Specialists. Shane went to Nick's home, inspected his sump pump, and proposed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which is three pumps in one unit. Nick was confident in our TripleSafe, so he signed Shane's contract and went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Raul, and his production team began the project by breaking out the concrete floor around the pre-existing sump pump and replaced it with our TripleSafe Sump Pump. Our TripleSafe is our best sump pump that we provide for homeowners because of its ability to solve all three water problems in one system and it comes with a battery back-up, which keeps the pump running in case of power failure. To complete the project, Raul and his team filled the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Nick was happy with the job and his peace of mind was restored!
