Before & After Photos

Roger B. in Spring Park, MN noticed that the roof of his crawl space was sagging, and he had a crack on the exterior wall of his home where the crawl space is. He also noticed that he had a lot of moisture in his crawl space and he thought he might be losing energy through that space because he was dealing with high energy costs. He found American Waterworks and was pleased to see that we offer both waterproofing and foundation repair.

We sent one of our Design Specialists, Shane Nephew, to his home to find a solution and give him a FREE estimate. Roger was pleased with the proposal that Shane developed so he scheduled a date for the installation.

Our production crew removed the debris and installed our crawl space waterproofing system which consisted of, drainage matting along the floor, SilverGlo, CleanSpace and a Sedona dehumidifier. Then we installed 5 SmartJacks in the crawl space to support the beams of the flooring. To stabilize the home, we installed 10 push piers under the foundation.The entire process took a couple of days, but Roger and his family will benefit from this permanent solution for a lifetime. Our waterproofing and foundation repair systems are backed by a lifetime warranty, so Roger can rest easy knowing his home is protected.

Following his evaluation, Nick determined that the wall needed to be permanently stabilized. Nick proposed a solution that would solve all the homeowner's concerns and provide a long-term solution. After consideration, the homeowner agreed with Nick's plan and production commenced. Our Foreman, Jeremiah, and his crew arrived at the home to begin construction. First, the crew prepared the foundation for the GeoLock installation. GeoLocks is our innovative wall anchor system that permanently stabilizes your foundation walls by anchoring the walls to untouched soil beyond your foundation. Along the south wall, the crew installed five GeoLock anchors.  Once the GeoLocks were installed, the crew was able to clean up their job site. The homeowners were relieved to know that their wall was permanently stabilized and saved. American Waterworks is happy to provide our customers peace of mind.

A homeowner in Dayton, MN, noticed that his basement wall had been tilting inward and wanted to address the issue immediately. He began searching for "foundation repair near me" and found our website. After browsing our website, he was impressed with our 5-star reviews and decided to schedule his FREE estimate.  

In a couple of weeks, one of our Design Specialists arrived at the home to conduct a thorough inspection of the basement. He explained to the homeowner that one of the common causes of foundation damage is hydrostatic pressure. When heavy rain or flood causes the soil surrounding the foundation to become saturated with water, the water puts pressure on the walls, impacting the stability of the home. To fix this issue, our Design Specialist recommended our GeoLock wall anchors. GeoLocks are designed to stabilize foundation walls permanently and can be tightened to straighten walls over time. The homeowner was grateful for our Design Specialist's explanation and decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Victor S., and his crew arrived at the home to install 5 GeoLocks. These are installed by digging a hole several feet away from the foundation. The earth anchor is then placed and attached to the interior wall. Both anchors are connected by a small steel pole that runs through the ground. After the crew was done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.
