Foundation Risk in Trimont, MN

A homeowner in Trimont, MN, felt it was time to have their basement inspected due to the concerning cracks growing along their walls. Since the homeowner has done work with us in the past, they felt comfortable calling our Appointment Center and signing up for their FREE estimate. After the FREE estimate was set, we sent one of our Service Technicians, Edgar, to investigate the status of the wall. When Edgar arrived, he met with the homeowner and then took a look at the wall. Edgar determined that the wall was showing early signs of wall failure. To stop the failure from continuing, Edgar recommended they install GeoLocks to permanently stabilize. Knowing this was the best option, Edgar agreed and the solution was directed to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Juan, and his crew traveled to begin the stabilization process. Upon arrival, they made sure the basement was cleared and ready for production. Then, the crew began installing five GeoLocks along the south wall. The homeowner requested that the tightening kit also be included in the job, so they could gradually straighten the wall over time. When the crew finished the GeoLock installation, they cleaned up the site and left the home. The homeowners were pleased with the excellent work completed by the crew.

Vapor Barrier Installed in Crawl Space in Petersburg, ND

A homeowner in Petersburg, ND, noticed their crawl space was in serious trouble. Knowing they needed a professional solution, the homeowner looked into crawl space repair options near Petersburg, ND. One of the first companies to catch their eye was us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided to take a closer look at our services. Impressed with our reviews, the homeowner knew we were the best company for their project. Since they were already on the website, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Dylan, to the home to check out the crawl space. Dylan promptly arrived at the home and thoroughly investigated the basement and crawl space. During his inspection, Dylan confirmed the crawl space needed to be fully encapsulated. Dylan came up with and proposed a solution to the homeowner. After hearing Dylan's proposal, the homeowner decided to go ahead with the recommended plan of action. Next, Dylan passed the plans along to our Logistics team to build and schedule the project. As soon as the project details were ironed out, it was assigned to our Foreman, Kingsley, and his crew. Kingsley and his crew traveled to Petersburg and started the crawl space encapsulation project. First, Kingsley and his crew cleared out the crawl space to ensure it was ready for installation. Next, the crew laid Drainage Matting on the basement floors. Once the Drainage Matting was laid, the crew shifted their focus to installing CleanSpace on the crawl space floors and walls. Finally, the crew installed Foamax on the crawl space walls to ensure it stayed insulated. Once all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home.

Crawl Space Gets Lifted in Argusville, ND

A homeowner from Argusville, ND was beginning to notice her floor was starting to bow. Because she knew there was a crawl space below, she had concerns about the structural integrity of the home. When she called in, we set her up with our FREE estimate, and a few weeks later our Design Specialist, Kole, headed out to the property to assess the damage. Once he completed his walkthrough, he was able to make recommendations as to how we could help. Kole wanted to use our SmartJacks to address the bowing wood in the crawl space. He explained that our SmartJacks are unique in that they are made with strong, corrosion-resistant, galvanized steel. Because your system will not develop rust, it will remain adjustable for years, should you need to perform future adjustments. The homeowner agreed with the recommendations and work began a few weeks later. 

Our Foreman, Zach, and his team work diligently to install 8 of our SmartJacks throughout the space. Once the job was completed, our customer was happy to know that she no longer had to worry about the strength and safety of her crawl space.
