Crawl Space Repair Contractor in Mankato, MN
Brenda A. of Mankato, MN had a tight crawl space with access floors above that were sagging. She wanted to get them lifted and supported, so she called American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist, Dylan, went to Brenda's home to inspect her crawl space and determine a solution. Dylan proposed our SmartJack Crawl Space Support Posts, which are specifically designed to lift and repair sagging floor joists.
Our Foreman, Lane, and his crew removed all the access dirt to install our SmartJacks. This system can be tightened with a torque wrench by the homeowner or by our service technicians during annual maintenances. Brenda's peace of mind and sagging floors were restored once the project was completed!

Cracked & Bowing Foundation Restored in North Mankato, MN
Mike C. in North Mankato, MN had a cracked and bowing foundation wall in his basement. He contacted American Waterworks after seeing an advertisement because he was concerned about the pressure it was putting on his foundation. Our Design Specialist, Eric Hazelton, went to his home to provide him with a FREE onsite inspection and design a solution. Eric recommended that we install PowerBraces to stabilize his walls and protect his foundation. Mike liked the proposal that Eric presented to him, so he decided to move forward with repairing his foundation.
Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his crew installed 7 PowerBraces along the bowing wall. The PowerBraces are designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential for the wall to straighten over time. The beams are covered with a zinc-coating to protect it from rusting or deteriorating. The process was less invasive than Mike thought it would be. Mike is glad he chose the right solution through American Waterworks to protect his foundation for the long-term.

Helical Deck Piers Installed in Chanhassen, MN

Bowing Foundation Walls in Amboy, MN
Matt C. in Amboy, MN had cracked and bowing walls in his basement. He was concerned about the amount of stress it was putting on his foundation and did not want to let the damage get any worse, so he contacted us to receive a FREE estimate. We were happy to send one of our Design Specialists, Jeremy Radtke, to his home to inspect the foundation problem and provide him with a solution. Jeremy assured him that we could repair his foundation walls by installing wall anchors. Matt liked Jeremy’s proposal and felt like we were a good fit for him, so he scheduled the installation.
Our production team drilled rods through the brick wall to the soil outside of the home. They secured the rods with anchor plates on each end. Once the plates were tightened, Matt was able to visibly see a difference in the stability of the walls. The anchors will continue to straighten the walls over time as well. Our wall anchor system is backed by a lifetime warranty, so Matt can rest easy knowing he chose to invest in the long-term protection of his foundation.

Failing Wall Gets Repaired in Amboy, MN
A homeowner from Amboy, MN got in touch with us when he began to notice that his basement walls were seemingly beginning to tilt inward. The homeowner knew that foundation issues aren't something to wait to fix, so he took advantage of our FREE, no-obligation estimate for the issue. Once the appointment was scheduled, our Design Specialist, Eric, headed out to the property to conduct his inspection. Once he finished his walkthrough, he informed the homeowner that he was right to contact us because the walls were indeed beginning to display signs of failure. He informed the homeowner that their best line of defense against complete failure was our GeoLock Wall Anchors. He explained that this innovative wall anchor system will permanently stabilize your foundation wall by anchoring your walls to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond your foundation. He went on to say that after installation, wall anchors can often be tightened over time to further straighten your foundation walls and pull them back to their original position. The homeowner agreed and work began a few weeks later.
After our team had finished the installation, they placed 10 of our GeoLock anchors throughout the basement of the home. Once the work was completed, the homeowner was thrilled to know that their foundation was no longer in trouble!
