Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Mason City, IA, discovered large horizontal cracks on their foundation walls. Concerned by this discovery, the homeowner decided they wanted a professional to take a look. Overwhelmed by all their options, the homeowner asked their neighbors if they had any recommendations. The neighbor recommended working with us, American Waterworks. After the neighbor gave them our number, the homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists, Eric, was sent to complete the estimate in the home. Eric arrived at the home to begin the basement analysis. After he inspected the basement, Eric discovered that the cracks were caused by hydrostatic pressure. To stop the walls from bowing in further, Eric suggested the walls be permanently stabilized with GeoLocks, our innovative wall anchoring system. After thinking about their options, the homeowner agreed with Eric's suggestions. The plans were assigned to our Formean, Crescencio, and his crew. When the crew arrived, they began by mapping out where the 10 GeoLocks would be secured. Then, they began installing four GeoLocks on the west and six GeoLocks on the north foundation wall. Once the GeoLocks were properly secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was at ease knowing their foundation was saved from possible failure. American Waterworks is happy to give another homeowner peace of mind. 

A homeowner in Mason City, IA, was inspecting their American Waterworks WaterGuard system when they noticed it was time to schedule their annual maintenance appointment. The homeowner called our Service team and signed up for their annual maintenance appointment with Kyle, one of our Service Technicians. Kyle traveled to the home and began his thorough inspection of the previously installed products. The homeowner made sure to point out the large crack growing along the south wall. Immediately Kyle knew it was a sign of early wall failure. Kyle reported his findings back to the homeowner but also proposed a solution. Once they heard Kyle's suggestions, they knew it was their best option and they agreed. Kyle passed the plans to the Office to be finalized, then they were sent to our Foreman, Juan, and his crew. Once they received the plans, Juan and his crew traveled to the home and began the GeoLock installation. Juan and his crew installed five GeoLock Anchors on the south foundation wall. After the GeoLocks were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the wonderful work completed by the crew.

A homeowner in Mason City, IA, noticed cracks growing across their foundation walls. Worried this could mean a larger issue, the homeowner knew they should have an expert inspect their struggling basement walls. The homeowner asked a local Facebook group for any recommendations, and several of them referred the homeowner to us, American Waterworks. The homeowner went to our website and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, we sent one of our Design Specialists, Brady, to the home to begin the inspection. Since Brady is already in Mason City, he did not have to travel very far. Once he arrived, Brady began his detailed inspection of the interior and exterior foundation. During his inspection, Brady found that the foundation was struggling due to improper soil fill around the home. To combat this issue, Brady recommended installing GeoLock Wall Anchors on the interior foundation wall. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner decided to go ahead with his suggestions. Brady sent the plans to the office to be approved, and then they were sent to our Foreman, Arturo, and his crew. Once they received the plans, Arturo and his crew traveled to Mason City and began the project. Arturo and his crew began by installing five GeoLock Wall Anchors on the struggling basement wall. Since the proposal only called for GeoLock Wall Anchors, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was thankful for the excellent work completed by the crew.
