Before & After Photos

Mike G. of Thief River Falls, MN had sagging floors and he needed them lifted for structural support. He found American Waterworks online, so he filled out the FREE estimate form on our website. Our Design Specialist went to Mike's house, carefully inspected his sagging floors, and proposed the solution of our SmartJacks, which are designed to support and stabilize sagging floor joists. Mike was confident in the proposal, so he went ahead with the project.

Our Foreman and his crew replaced Mike's pre-existing support posts with our strong, steel, SmartJacks. This system can hold up to 60,000 pounds and provides very minimal disturbance to the home.

A homeowner from Thief River Falls had been watching his basement walls for several years now. You see, the walls had been showing signs of cracking for some time and kept worsening over time. The homeowner was growing more concerned but didn't know of any local foundation repair companies. One day one of his neighbors informed him about our services so the homeowner decided to sign up for one of our FREE estimates, and several weeks later, our Design specialist was scheduled to head out to the home.

Our Design Specialist performed his walkthrough inspection, and when he finished, met with the homeowner to deliver his recommendations. Our Design Specialist began by saying that the homeowner was right to address the problem, as failing walls can impact the home's structural integrity. He went on to say that the problem could be solved with the use of our PowerBrace system. He explained that our PowerBraces are a patented foundation wall repair system that's designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. These steel I-beams will stabilize the wall in its current position without any further adjustment. Over time, the PowerBrace™ System can be tightened to make bowing or tilting walls straighter and more vertical. The homeowner liked the sound of the plan and decided to schedule the job on the spot. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Franklin O, led his team through the successful installation of 13 PowerBraces throughout the basement. Now that the job was been completed, our customer is thrilled to know that his foundation worries are in the past!

A homeowner in Stirum, ND, discovered a separation between cinderblocks on their basement wall. Aware that this could lead to a significant problem, the homeowner sought for a professional opinion. While sifting through many foundation repair companies, the homeowner came across American Waterworks. In addition to foundation repair, the homeowner noticed American Waterworks can complete a multitude of jobs. Certain they were the perfect match, the homeowners signed up for their FREE estimate. We sent out our Design Specialist, James, to complete an assessment of the home. Following his thorough inspection, James suggested that the homeowners permanently stabilize the foundation. Trusting his expertise, the homeowners agreed and stabilization prep began. Our Foreman, Kingsley, and his crew arrived at the home and the job began. The crew started by installing five Geo-Locks on the south wall. After the Geo-Locks were attached, the homeowner decided to include the Geo-Lock Tightening kit, so they could straighten the walls over time. Next, the crew shifted to installing CleanSpace on all the basement walls. After all the products were installed, the crew cleaned the job site and left the home better than it was before. The homeowners were relieved to see know the struggling wall was properly supported. American Waterworks is happy to bring another homeowner peace of mind.

Kim, from Crookston, MN began to notice a bow in the foundation walls of her home. The bowing of the wall resulted in the cracks that are caused within the foundation allowing water to seep through causing a wet basement.  Kim then contacted the Appointment Center here at American Waterworks expressing her major concern and claimed her FREE estimate entitling her to a full home inspection. Once the appointment was set our Design Specialist then attended her home and began a thorough home inspection to get a proper diagnosis of the situation and provide the best solutions to help Kim not only solve her issue but prevent any other issues from arising. Once the inspection was done, our Design Specialist recommended that Kim should invest in our PowerBrace Wall System.  Kim agreed with the solution and proceeded to schedule a date of installation.

The PowerBrace system is an I-shaped beam that stabilizes and helps straighten the bow of the wall over time.
