Before & After Photos

Karen R. in Pine Island, MN had a shifting foundation wall that needed some support. Karen was concerned about the structural integrity of her home and wanted a cost-effective solution with minimal disturbance. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Rick Weber, to evaluate the situation and propose a unique solution for her home. 

Our Foreman, Cory Sather, and his production crew installed 7 CarbonArmor straps along the foundation to reinforce the bowing wall. The CarbonArmor system utilizes epoxy and carbon fiber straps to strengthen and stabilize the foundation. Karen was impressed with the quick installation, and her peace of mind has been restored! 

A Pine Island, MN, homeowner was doing laundry when she noticed a large crack in her foundation, running the length of the basement. Upon further investigation, she found that the wall was compromised in several areas. Not wanting the issue to worsen, she began searching for a reputable foundation company in Pine Island, MN. One night, she was watching TV and saw one of our ads. She decided to call us, set up her FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Darin S, headed out to the home. 

Once Darin completed his inspection, he met with the homeowner to deliver his recommendations. Darin informed the homeowner that she was right to contact us. He went on to say that while the problem seemed daunting, American Waterworks could easily address the issue using our GeoLock wall anchors. This unique foundation wall anchor system is designed with galvanized steel, allowing for long-term corrosion resistance. This system will permanently stabilize your foundation wall by anchoring your walls to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond your foundation. After installation, wall anchors can often be tightened over time to straighten your foundation walls further and pull them back to their original position. The homeowner liked the sound of Darin's plan, and the job was scheduled for some time later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Francisco, and his team were able to install 7 of our GeoLock wall anchors around the basement of the home. 

Now our customers can enjoy their space without worries of foundation troubles!

Bob J. in Lansing, MN was experiencing water leaking into his basement. He wasn't quite sure where the water was coming from so he decided to contact a professional to inspect his basement. He called American Waterworks and we sent a Design Specialist to his home to provide him with a solution and a free estimate. During the inspection, we discovered that his basement walls had started to crack and bow inward. This was one of the entry points for the water. We also found water seeping up through the floor in one of the corners of the basement. Bob was pleased with the thorough plan that our Design Specialist developed, so he chose to move forward with the installation. 

Our production crew installed our WaterGuard drainage system around the basement floor, a SuperSump sump pump in the corner and 3 wall anchors to repair the damaged foundation wall. The process took two days to complete, but now Bob's peace of mind is restored. His basement is now a dry, healthier space, and he is confident that the walls of his home are stable. He is glad he found a solution to repair his home for the long-term.

A homeowner in Bay City, WI had an older home and the past few years had developed concerns about the state of his foundation. He decided to take action and get feedback from an expert on how stable and secure it was. During his online search, he found the American Waterworks company website and was impressed with the number of positive past customer reviews and the products that we offered. He signed up for a FREE no-obligation estimate appointment and was later greeted by one of our Design Specialists to inspect the home. The Design Specialist decided that the foundation at the front of the home was becoming weaker and suggested using our HelicalPiers to stabilize and even possibly lift the area back to a proper level. The homeowner was glad to hear the plan and agreed to the project plans. One of our Foremen, Jose Castillo, and his crew arrived at the site to carry out the installations of three HelicalPiers underneath the front door space. The homeowner was pleased with the work done and happy with the results.
