Before & After Photos

Greg J. of Strum, WI had a bowing foundation wall in his old farm home and it was in need of reinforcement. He came across an American Waterworks commercial on television, so he called our office and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Dustin. Dustin went to Greg's home, carefully inspected his foundation wall, and proposed our wall anchor system, which is the most versatile foundation repair system that we provide for homeowners because of its ability to solve a variety of different problems. Greg was confident in the solution, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Matt, and his crew installed seven of our wall anchors to straighten and stabilize the foundation wall back to its natural position. This anchor-rod installation involves soil removal, backfill, and minimal disturbance to the home. Greg was happy with the work and had a great experience with our team from start to finish. 

We provide FREE estimates for foundation repair, basement waterproofing, crawl space repair/encapsulation, radon testing/mitigation, and concrete repair/lifting. Give us a call or click here to request your FREE inspection. 

GeoLock Anchor Wall SystemA homeowner from Alta Vista, MN had been keeping an eye on their bowing basement wall for a few years when they finally decided it was time to search for a remedy to the problem. After speaking with neighbors and friends, they decided to reach out to American Waterworks to see what they would be looking at. Once they scheduled their FREE, no-obligation estimate they were able to get a date on the calendar for one of our Design Specialists to come out to the home and conduct a thorough walkthrough. 

Once the inspection had been completed, our Design Specialist was ready to make his recommendations as to how to fix the failing wall. He informed the homeowner that the basement could benefit from the use of our GeoLock Wall Anchor System. He informed the homeowner that this solution has minimal disturbance of the home, and is designed to permanently stabilize foundation walls by anchoring the walls to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond the foundation of the home. He went on to say that after the installation is complete, wall anchors can be tightened over time to further straighten the foundation walls to pull them back to their original position. 

Our Foreman and his team ended up installing 16 of our GeoLock anchors throughout the space. Now our customer can enjoy their basement without fearing a failing foundation.

A homeowner in Alma, WI, was cleaning around their porch when they discovered that the foundation was cracking. Nervous about the effects it could have on the structure, the homeowner decided to have a professional visit to take a look. After seeing all the positive appraisals, the homeowner decided to contact American Waterworks for a FREE estimate. Once the appointment details were finalized, we sent our Design Specialist, Brian, to the home to evaluate the status of the foundation. Following his evaluation, Brain suggested that the walls be permanently stabilized and concrete be lifted. The homeowner agreed with Brian's suggestions and a crew was assigned to complete the task. Our Foreman and his crew went to the home and began the project.  The crew began by attempting to lift and level the concert in the garage using the PolyLevel. Additionally, they attempted to fill the crack on the garage floor. After lifting the garage floor, the crew shifted their focus to stabilizing the failing walls. For this case, the crew decided to incorporate Geo-Locks to stabilize the cracking wall underneath the porch. Finally, the crew cleaned the job site and ensured everything was installed properly. The homeowner was pleased with the completed project. If you are experiencing a similar issue, sign up for your FREE estimate today!

Rick determined that the best solution would be to install 4 wall anchors to stabilize the wall. Donald agreed that was the best course of action, so he scheduled the installation. 

The installation took a day to complete and Donald was able to see the dramatic change in the stability of the wall once the anchors were tightened.
