Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Crookston, MN had a settling and cracking exterior foundation, causing them to worry about the structural integrity of their home. They researched local contractors and came across American Waterworks. They contacted our office staff and scheduled a FREE estimate. Our Design Specialist, Kole, went to the homeowner's house, carefully inspected their problems, and drew out a detailed solution. The homeowner got all of their questions answered, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Cameron, and his crew installed our Helical Piers to stabilize the home and our Wall Recovery System to rebuild the home's deteriorated foundation. The homeowner was very satisfied with the project and was grateful we were able to help them.

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.

Once set our Foreman, Cameron Phrakonekham, and his Crew began to strategically place PowerBraces around the basement, inserting a total of 6 PowerBraces to further stabilize the wall. 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. 

Now Kim lives worry-free that the foundation of her home is in any jeopardy of worsening. If you are experiencing a similar issue contact American Waterworks today and claim your FREE estimate!! 

Rick M. of Enderlin, ND had bowing walls in his basement, making him worry about the structural build and safety of his home. He knew one of our employees, so he went with American Waterworks for the repairs. He scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Sales Manager, Mike Radosevich. Mike inspected his problems and came up with a solution that worked for him and his budget. Rick was happy with Mike's proposal, so he went ahead with the project and scheduled an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Corey Tollefson, and his crew installed our PowerBraces around his basement wall perimeter. Our PowerBraces is a foundation wall repair system that is designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten them over time. Over time, they can be tightened by the homeowner to make the bowed walls straighter and more vertical. Rick was happy with the repairs and had a great experience! 

Andrea from Climax, MN, contacted us when she noticed that her basement walls were beginning to bow inward, showing signs of failing. Andrea was afraid that if left unresolved, she would risk compromising the home's structural integrity. She called American Waterworks for a FREE estimate, and shortly after the appointment was scheduled, our Design Specialist, Ian, headed out to the property. 

Ian recommended that Andrea invest in our PowerBrace Wall System and GeoLock Wall Anchors to correct the issue. 

Once approved, our Foreman and his crew got to work. First, 12 GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed; this innovative system permanently stabilizes foundation walls by anchoring them to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond the foundation. Our Foreman explained to Andrea that the anchors can be tightened over time. Then, the team got to work strategically placing PowerBraces around the basement, inserting 12 PowerBraces to stabilize the wall further. These were also installed with WaterGuard brackets for futureproofing. 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 home's support beams and the concrete on which the house lies. 

Andrea's peace of mind was restored, and she was glad she trusted our team to ensure that her basement walls were no longer an issue.

A homeowner in Roseau, MN had cracked and inward bowing walls in their basement, making them feel uncomfortable living in their own home. They did some research on our website and came across our foundation repair products. They called our office line to learn a bit more and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Chad Johnson. Chad went to their home to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. After a detailed and thorough diagnosis, the homeowner was comfortable with the proposal, so they moved forward with the project. 

Our Foreman, Matt Zeller, and his production team began the project by digging four holes in front of the home. Our team inserted a long, metal rod from the inside foundation wall to each hole outside of the home. Next, our crew tightened and screwed on a GeoLock Wall Anchor on the end of each rod in the soil to anchor itself there and brace the foundation wall. Lastly, Matt and his team installed and tightened four of our GeoLock Channel Anchors inside of the foundation wall, which are made to straighten cracking and bowing walls over time. To complete the project, our crew backfilled the holes and replaced the soil. The homeowner was thrilled with the work, and had a great experience!
