Before & After Photos

Amanda S. of Albert Lea, MN had a deteriorating foundation wall in her basement, making her feel scared and nervous to live in her own home. She got in contact with American Waterworks to schedule a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Ryan Powell. Ryan went to her home to inspect the wall and come up with a solution. Amanda got all of her questions answered and was comfortable with Ryan's proposal, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Matt Zeller, and his production team applied 26 feet of our ShotCrete Wall Restoration System to rebuild the foundation wall and restore Amanda's peace of mind. This spray-on solution is twice as strong as standard concrete, it is a fully warrantied repair, and it's much less costly than foundation replacement. Amanda was thrilled with the work and had a remarkable experience with Ryan and Matt!

Marcy B.'s garage walls were bowing and cracking, causing her to worry about the structural build and support of her home. One of her friends had work done by American Waterworks was happy with our services, so Marcy got a hold of our office staff and scheduled a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist, Dylan Woitas, went to her home to carefully inspect her walls and come up with a solution that would repair the issue. Dylan proposed our CarbonArmor Fiber Wall Reinforcement Strips, which is a system that uses epoxy and carbon fiber strips to strengthen foundation walls. Marcy was confident in the product and our proposal, so she signed Dylan's contract and put down a deposit. 

Our Foreman, Hugo Sanchez, and his production team installed 28 of our Carbon Fiber Strips around the entire garage wall perimeter. Our CarbonArmor Strips are 10 times stronger than steel and were once used for bomb shelters, bridges, and tall buildings. Marcy was happy with the project and her peace of mind was restored knowing that she no longer has to worry!

An Albert Lea, MN, homeowner had been dealing with an issue with his basement walls for some time now. He had observed several stairstep cracks forming on the walls, as well as one wall bowing inward. He knew he had to act fast to fix the issue, so he began to look for a foundation contractor in MN. When he found our website, he signed up for his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Dustin A, headed out to the home. 

Dustin completed his inspection, and when he finished, he informed the homeowner that he believed we could fix the issue with the help of our PowerBraces. The PowerBrace™ is a patented foundation wall repair system that's designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. These steel I-beams will stabilize the wall in its current position without any further adjustment. Over time, the PowerBrace™ System can be tightened to make bowing or tilting walls straighter and more vertical. The homeowner liked the sound of Dustin's plan, so he signed on the spot. 

The day of the project eventually rolled around. Our Foreman, Jesus M, led his team through the successful installation of 5 of our PowerBraces throughout the basement. Now, our customer can rest easy knowing his foundation worries are in the past! 

Rick and Shirley S. of Baldwin, WI had cracked and bowing foundation walls in their basement. They found an American Waterworks advertisement in the newspaper so they scheduled a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist went to Rick and Shirley's house, carefully examined their foundation walls, and proposed our Wall Anchor System, which is our most versatile foundation repair system because it solves a variety of different problems. 

Our Foreman and his production team installed 16 of our anchors around the entire foundation wall perimeter. This anchor-rod installation is designed to stabilize cracked and bowing foundation walls while pulling the wall back to its natural position. Rick and Shirley were happy with the work and were grateful we were able to help them with their needs.

Adam from Baldwin, WI was experiencing some problems in his home. He was concerned about the foundation of her home due to water intrusion, so he contacted the Appointment Center here at American Waterworks to claim his FREE estimate. Once the appointment was set, our Design Special Darin attended to Adam's property. He began a thorough home inspection to properly diagnose the house and propose a proper solution that would help solve the issue and prevent other issues from arising.

First, Foreman Arturo and his crew installed our SmartJack system. Our SmartJack system is made to provide support for oversized or sagging beams, restoring stability and straightness. 

Our Foreman and the production team then installed three of our SmartJacks along the support beam of the home. Once the SmartJack was set, the team installed the WaterGuard system. This particular system is typically used in basements and is the premier choice for basement waterproofing as it is installed below the floor, but rests atop the foundation, keeping it out of the "mud zone", making it harder to clog. It works to trap water and sends it to an appropriate disposal site, our TripleSafe sump pump, an effective and economical sump solution.

They then proceeded to use CleanSpace to encapsulate the basement to prevent moisture and mold to affect the rest of the foundation. The team finished by cleaning everything up, and Adam was thrilled and impressed with the project from start to finish!
