Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Park Rapids, MN, was cleaning their basement when they noticed their walls were beginning to bend inwards. Concerned by this discovery, the homeowner wanted to solve the issue before it progressed. The homeowner was doing research into the many companies in the area and noticed our five-star reviews. Impressed by our customer's kind words, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate on our website. Once the estimate details were finalized, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of one of our Design Specialists. As soon as the Design Specialist arrived, he began his analysis of the home's foundation. After completing the detailed inspection, the Design Specialist determined that the foundation walls were caving into the home due to hydrostatic pressure. After finding the cause, the Design Specialist recommended permanently stabilizing the foundation walls. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner agreed with the Design Specialists recommendations, and the plans were sent to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Franklin, and his crew arrived at the home to begin the foundation repair. First, the crew started by excavating the failing wall in the basement. Next, the crew installed 18 PowerBraces along the entire west wall, and sections of the west and east wall. Once all the PowerBraces were put into place, the crew installed the SentrySeal Waterproofing Membrane around the exterior foundation. The crew cleaned up their job site and left the home. The homeowners were relieved to know their basement was no longer at risk of wall failure. American Waterworks is happy to provide another homeowner peace of mind. 

Deborah O. of Sauk Rapids, MN had a severe crack in her foundation, causing her to feel nervous about the structural support of her home. She came across our website online and did some research on our foundation repair products. She requested a FREE Estimate so our Design Specialist, Shane Nephew, went to her home to carefully inspect the wall and give her some options on what solutions we could offer. Shane answered all of Deborah's questions and she was confident in our GeoLock Wall Anchor System, so she went ahead and got an installation date scheduled. 

Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his production team began the process by digging five holes outside of the home. From the inside of the basement, our team inserted a long, metal rod from the inside foundation to each hole outside beyond the home. Juan and his crew tightened and screwed on a GeoLock Wall Anchors to the ends of each rod. Once tightened and secured, the wall anchor system stabilizes foundation walls by anchoring the walls to the hard-packed soil. To complete the installation, our team backfilled the holes and replaced the soil. Deborah was thrilled with the work! 

Loeub L. in Faribault, MN came across our booth at the Faribault Home and Garden Show and spoke with one of our Design Specialists, Eric Hazelton. Loeub had some bowing basement walls and was concerned about the structural integrity of his home. He was looking for a permanent, cost effective solution with minimal disruption to his basement space or outside landscaping. Eric recommended our PowerBrace Wall Repair System. Loeub approved of the plan and move forward with the project. 

Our Foreman, Jose Castillo, and his production crew installed 11 PowerBraces along the bowing foundation walls. The steel I-beams stabilize the wall in its current position, and over time, can be tightened to make the walls straighter and more vertical. The PowerBraces can be installed with no disruption to outside soil. Loeub was impressed with the quick installation, and is worry-free, knowing his basement is now permanently stabilized.
