Before & After Photos

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.

Jack and Marie R. of Cornell, WI had bowing walls near the staircase going into their basement. This made them worry about the structural support of their house. They got in contact with American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Chuck Haldeman. Chuck inspected Jack and Marie's foundation, proposed the solution of our Wall Anchor System, and answered all of their questions. After a thorough inspection and discussion, Jack and Marie decided to move forward with the project. 

Our Foreman, Chri Newton, and his production crew installed four of our Wall Anchors. Our Wall Anchors are designed to stabilize basement walls, providing the best opportunity to straighten the walls without the cost of replacement. This system is the most versatile wall repair method because it stabilizes walls with a variety of problems, whether the walls are bowing, tipping, or pushing in at the bottom. Wall Anchors extend out to the stable soil beyond the home, anchoring themselves there and straightening the foundation wall. Jack and Marie were happy with the work that was completed and had a great experience with our team from start to finish!

A homeowner from Plainview, MN, was down in her basement one day when she noticed some old cracks on the wall had begun to worsen. She was concerned about what the cracks worsening could mean. One of her close friends just so happened to be one of our Design Specialists, Darin S. She confided in him about her worries for her home, and he reassured her that he could assess the situation and see what could be done. 

On the day of her FREE inspection appointment, Darin made sure to do a thorough sweep through the basement, paying close attention to the cracks the homeowner was the most worried about. He informed her that foundation walls are designed to support loads from above, not the side. When the pressure on your walls exceeds their ability to withstand the force, they will begin to crack, bow, slide in at the bottom, and/or tilt inward at the top. Darin went on to say that while this information might seem daunting, he was confident that our GeoLock wall anchors were the correct choice to restore the wall. Wall anchors can counteract soil pressure by anchoring the wall to the stable, undisturbed soil beyond your home's foundation. Darin finished by saying that after the installation was complete, wall anchors can often be tightened over time to further straighten your foundation walls and pull them back to their original position. The homeowner was thrilled with Darin's approach to the issue and scheduled the job on the spot. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Jesus C, led his team through a successful installation of 5 GeoLock anchors in the basement of the home. Now our customer is relieved knowing that her foundation worries are in the past!
