Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Cresco, IA, noticed their floors were beginning to sag. Worried this would affect the home's structure, the homeowner began looking into "sagging floor repair near Cresco, IA". One of the first companies to catch their eye was us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided to take a closer look. After seeing our impressive before and after photo albums, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, we sent one of our Iowa-based Design Specialists, Ryan, to the home to take a closer look. Ryan arrived at the home and began the thorough investigation of the foundation. Once he wrapped up his inspection, Ryan determined the floors were not properly stabilized. Ryan provided the homeowner with a proposal that would solve their stabilization issue. After hearing Ryan's recommendations, the homeowner knew it was their best option. Next, Ryan passed the plans to our Logistics team to approve their plans. Once they were given the final stamp of approval, it was assigned to our Foreman, Jesus, and his crew. As soon as they received the proposal, Jesus and his crew traveled to the home and began the SmartJack installation. Jesus and his crew installed eight SmartJacks. Additionally, the crew installed a supplemental beam to ensure the floor is secured. After all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the excellent craftsmanship of the crew. American Waterworks is happy to provide their homeowner peace of mind knowing their foundation is properly secured.

Greg B. in Hugo, MN had two bowing walls in his basement. He had noticed the bowing was getting worse over time and he was concerned about the pressure it was putting on his foundation, so he started to look for a foundation repair contractor.

He found American Waterworks’ website and was happy to see that we have many years of experience with foundation repair. He contacted us to receive a FREE estimate, so we sent one of our Design Specialists, Chad Johnson, to his home to inspect his problem and find a solution. Chad developed a thorough plan to stabilize the walls with a combination of both wall anchors and wall braces. Greg liked the proposal that Chad developed, and he felt we were a good fit for his needs, so they scheduled a date for the installation.

Our Foreman, Jesus Covarrubias, and his crew installed 9 wall braces along one of the walls and 5 wall anchors on the other. The combination of these foundation repair products straightened, and stabilized Greg’s foundation. The project took a couple of days, but Greg can rest easy knowing he invested in a permanent solution to his foundation problem.
