Before & After Photos

Steve O., a resident in Eau Claire, WI, had cracked foundation walls, causing him to worry about the stability of his home and the cost of replacement. Thankfully, he heard about American Waterworks and our foundation repair products, so he called our office line and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Chad. Chad went to his home, carefully inspected his foundation wall, and drew up a solution of our GeoLock Wall Anchors. Steve was confident with the product and its warranty, so he went ahead with the installation and signed the contract. 

Our Foreman, Juan, and his production team began the project by digging small holes outside of the home, beyond the foundation. From the inside of the foundation, our team inserted a long, metal rod to each hole outside of the home. At the ends of each rod in the soil, our team installed an anchor plate, which holes the rod in place underground. From inside the foundation, our team installed a GeoLock Wall Anchor to the ends of each rod to stabilize the foundation wall. This combination allows the wall to straighten itself out over time and because of the way our anchor system is designed, it can be tightened by the homeowner to ensure it is still doing its job. To complete the work, our team backfilled each hole beyond the foundation and compacted the soil. Steve was happy with the work that was done and had a good experience!

Nick B. of Eau Claire, WI had a horizontal crack on his foundation wall, and he wanted it repaired before it got any worse. He had basement waterproofing done by our company so he reached out to us again for foundation repair. Our Design Specialist, Chad, went to Nick's house, carefully inspected his foundation, and proposed the solution of our wall anchor system, which is the most versatile foundation repair system that we provide for homeowners. Nick was confident in the system and its features, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Tremaine and his crew installed six of our wall anchors to stabilize and straighten the cracked foundation wall. This system can stop inward movement entirely and over time, the homeowner can tighten these anchors with a torque wrench to ensure the system is sticking to its design.

Roger L. owned a home in Strum, WI that he was using as an income property. He decided that he wanted to sell the house, so he didn’t have to deal with renting it out anymore. He knew that before he could put it on the market, he would have to make some repairs to the home, including repairing the foundation. He had two cracked walls in his basement, one of which had started bowing inward. Over the years he noticed it gradually getting worse and worse and he decided it was time to call American Waterworks to learn more about our foundation repair solutions and get a FREE estimate.

One of our Design Specialists, Rick Weber, went onsite to inspect his walls and develop the right solution for his specific needs. Rick concluded that the best repair option would be to install wall anchors, and Roger agreed. A couple of weeks later, our production crew arrived at the home to start the installation. They drilled small holes through the damaged block foundation and inserted long metal rods through the wall and into the soil surrounding the home. They secured both ends of the metal rods with anchor plates and tightened them as far as they could go. Once the anchors were tightened, the walls began to straighten and stabilize. The anchors should continue to be tightened over to time to continuously improve the strength of the foundation.

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.
