Crumbling Foundation in Winger, MN

A homeowner in Winger, MN, grew concerned regarding the crumbling foundation outside their home. Knowing this could lead to a larger issue, the homeowner wanted to have a foundation expert provide a solution for them. The homeowners reached out to American Waterworks and signed up for their FREE estimate. We sent out our Design Specialist, Kole, to evaluate the status of their foundation. Kole completed the in-depth inspection and determined the wall was deteriorating. To salvage the wall, Kole suggested the wall be restored with our wall restoration system. The homeowner agreed and the crew was assigned to complete the restoration. Our Foreman and his crew traveled to the home and began the preparations. First, they removed the deteriorated sections along the walls. Then, they installed wire mesh and wall recovered concrete walls to build them back up. The wall was smoothed to give a finished look. The homeowners were happy that their foundation wall was restored and the risk of failure was eliminated. American Waterworks is glad to stabilize another home's foundation.

Failing Basement Wall Straightened in Moorhead, MN

A customer from Moorhead, MN, got in contact with us when they noticed their basement wall was beginning to lean inward. They knew if they left the issue, they would run the risk of the wall failing completely, which would be hazardous to the structural integrity of the home and would cost more to fix at that stage. When they called in, they used their FREE estimate, and our Design Specialist, Kole, headed out to their property to do a thorough inspection of the issue. When he concluded, he found that the wall was leaning 2' inward, meaning corrective action was needed. Kole was able to recommend the homeowner a solution, our PowerBrace wall repair system. Kole explained that our PowerBrace is a steel I-beam designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. This system can be tightened to make bowing or tilting walls straighter and more vertical over time, meaning the system will last for a long time to come. The customer agreed with Kole's recommendations and work began shortly after. Our Foreman, Zach, and his crew ended up strategically installing 7 of our PowerBraces along the Southside of the basement. 

When the job was complete, the customer was happy with our work and relieved to know that her wall would be straight for a long time to come!
