Before & After Photos

American Waterworks had the pleasure of meeting this homeowner at Farm Fest in Redwood Falls, MN.  The client experienced a wall that was bowing into their basement.  American Waterworks provided a wall anchoring system to stabilize the wall and with time, straighten it.

Richard K. in Redwood Falls, MN had a cracked and bowing foundation and water seeping into his basement. He started to do some research online and was happy to learn that American Waterworks has been the leading waterproofing and foundation repair contractor in the region for 30 years! We sent one of our Design Specialist, Eric Hazelton, to meet with Richard, evaluate the situation, and propose a unique solution that fit his needs. Richard approved of the plan and moved forward with the project. 

Our Foreman, Jose Castillo, and his production crew were able to permanently stabilize the damaged walls by installing 6 Geo-Lock Wall Anchors along the foundation, which immediately halted the deterioration and began to straighten the walls. Next, the crew installed a full perimeter WaterGuard drainage system and our recommended TripleSafe sump pump. These products work together to ensure Richard’s basement is solid and dry! Richard was pleased with the process and glad he made the investment to protect his home.

Ray L. in Worthington, MN was concerned about two large cracks from the top of the foundation to the bottom on one wall in his home. While researching foundation repair options, he contacted American Waterworks for a FREE estimate. We sent our Design Specialist, Dylan Woitas, to his home to inspect the foundation and provide Ray with a solution. 

Ray was happy with Dylan’s proposal and the PowerBrace™ Wall Repair System that we offer. He set a date with our production crew to install the adjustable steel I-beam system which stabilized the tilting wall and over time will force the wall sections back to their original position. The PowerBraces do not require outside excavation, so it is less invasive than other foundation repair options. It’s anti-corrosion zinc coating will keep them looking like new for decades to come!

Craig F. of Richmond, MN had sagging floors in his lake home, and he wanted to get them lifted to prevent any further settlement. The reason for this was because he was using wood for the home to sit on. One of his peers referred American Waterworks so our team installed 13 of our SmartJacks. Our SmartJacks are made to stabilize and provide a solid support for sagging and undersized floor joists. Craig was so happy with the work and felt as if he was no longer bouncing around throughout his lake home!

Jerry, from Pierz, MN began to notice cracks in the foundation walls of her home. The cracks in the wall resulted in the cracks that are caused within the foundation allowing water to seep through causing a wet basement. When foundation walls begin to buckle, bow or tilt inward, homeowners are correct to be alarmed. Outside pressure from soil and water can actually cause foundation walls to collapse!

Jerry smartly contacted the Appointment Center here at American Waterworks, expressing his major concern, and claimed his FREE estimate entitling him to a full home inspection. Once the appointment was set, our Design Specialist Shane then attended the home and began a thorough home inspection to get a proper diagnosis of the situation and provide the best solutions to help not only solve the issue but prevent any other issues from arising. Once the inspection was done, Shane recommended that Jerry should invest in our PowerBrace Wall System.  He agreed with the solution and proceeded to schedule a date of installation.

Once set, our Foreman, Jeromy, and his crew began to strategically place PowerBraces around the basement, inserting a total of 12, 9' PowerBraces to stabilize the wall further. The PowerBrace system is an I-shaped beam that stabilizes and helps straighten the bow of the wall over time. The PowerBrace system is drilled into the support beams of the home and the concrete on which the home lies. The PowerBrace™ can be installed with no disruption to outside soils or landscaping. This foundation wall system installs quickly in your home, immediately and permanently halting the inward movement of your foundation walls. Now Jerry lives worry-free that the foundation of his home is in jeopardy of worsening. If you are experiencing a similar issue, contact American Waterworks today and claim your FREE estimate!!
