Before & After Photos

Brian from Staples, MN got in contact with us when he began to notice that his basement ceiling was beginning to sag. He was afraid that if he left the issue unresolved, he would run the risk of doing serious damage to the structure of his home, so he decided to call our office. We set him up with our FREE estimate, entitling him to a thorough inspection by one of our Design Specialists. Shortly after, our Design Specialists, Kole, headed out to the property to see what could be done. Once he completed his walkthrough, he could make recommendations as to how we could help. Kole wanted to use our SmartJacks to correct the sloping. He explained to Brian that the SmartJacks can be adjusted over time to provide additional straightening and leveling action if necessary. Brian agreed with Kole's recommendation and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Zach, and his crew finished the job swiftly. They ended up placing 13 SmartJacks around the basement of the home. Now Brian no longer needs to worry about sloping floors! 

A homeowner in Montgomery, MN had basement walls that were cracked and caving in. She called American Waterworks for a free inspection and we were able to design a plan to fit her specific needs. Our production crew installed wall anchors to straighten and provide support to her basement walls. They were very happy with the outcome of their project! 

Merle M. in Watertown, MN had multiple cracked foundation walls in his basement. The walls were starting to bow inward, and he had noticed the walls gradually deteriorating over the years. He decided it was time to look into repairing his foundation, so he contacted American Waterworks for a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists, Jeremy Radtke, went to his home to inspect the situation and develop a solution. Jeremy assured Merle that we could permanently restore his foundation by installing wall anchors. Merle was pleased to hear this!

Our team installed 8 wall anchors by drilling small holes through the damaged foundation walls, inserting long metal rods and securing each end of the rods with wall anchors. The process took about two days, but now Merle's foundation is permanently repaired, and his peace of mind has been restored.

Nick in Waconia, MN just moved in to a new home and discovered cracks in his foundation and a bowing basement wall. He was concerned about the value of his home and the potential problems these foundation issues could cause if left alone, so he contacted American Waterworks to have one of our foundation repair experts inspect his foundation. Our Design Specialist, Chad Johnson, determined that Nick’s best option was to repair his foundation using wall anchors. Chad explained the process and let Nick know that repairing his foundation will solve the problem in an efficient and cost-effective way, so Nick chose to move forward with having our system installed.

Our production team installed 14 wall anchors along the perimeter of Nick’s foundation walls in his basement. We drilled long metal rods through the brick walls and into the soil surrounding the home. Then we secured the rods with anchor plates on each end and tightened them. After the installation, the walls became stable and began to straighten. Our foundation repair products are guaranteed for a lifetime, so Nick is confident that he chose the right solution for his home!

Angelina S. of Waconia, MN had cracked and bowing foundation walls. In fact, on rainy days, water would come into her basement. She worked with American Waterworks for the repairs. Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his crew installed our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain, CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier, and our Wall Anchors to waterproof the basement and repair the foundation walls. Our WaterGuard is an interior drainage system that collects water seepage from basement walls. Our CleanSpace is a vapor barrier that prevents mold and humidity, while also saving money on energy costs. Lastly, our wall anchor system is a special anchor-rod installation that stabilizes foundation walls and allows the wall to straighten back to its normal position. To complete the entire installation, Juan and his team filled the open-floor gaps (that were broken out with a jackhammer) with river rock and an additional layer of concrete. Angelina was thrilled with the work and could not believe the beautiful transformation!
