Before & After Photos

Donald from Barnesville, MN got in contact with us when he began to notice a crack forming along his basement wall. He was afraid that if he left the issue unresolved, he would run the risk of the wall failing even more. When he called our office, we set him up with our FREE estimate, entitling him to a thorough inspection by one of our Design Specialists. A few weeks later, Kole was out at the property to see what could be done. Once he finished his walkthrough, he made his recommendations. Kole wanted to use our GeoLock anchors to fix the issue. He explained that this solution works to stabilize walls by anchoring them to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond the foundation. 

The customer agreed to the solution and work began a few weeks after. Our Foreman, Zach, and his crew ended up installing 8 of our anchors throughout the basement. When work was done, our customer was happy to know that he didn't have to worry about his basement foundation any longer! 

Todd Z. in Olivia, MN was nervous about the stress that his bowing foundation walls in his basement were putting on his home. He knew how expensive replacing an entire foundation could cost, so he started researching foundation repair options. Todd visited the American Waterworks booth at a local home show and talked with our Design Specialist, Jeremy Radtke, about his situation. They set up a time for Jeremy to come out to his home, inspect his bowing walls, and give him a free estimate. Jeremy developed a personalized plan to stabilize Todd's walls. Todd agreed with the plan and was eager for the installation. 

Our production team carefully placed 25 wall anchors throughout Todd's basement. After they tightened the anchors the walls were straightened and stabilized. Our wall anchors have a lifetime guarantee, so Todd has peace of mind that he invested in permanently protecting his home.

A homeowner in Glyndon, MN had outside soil and water pressure pushed against their foundation wall, causing it to collapse into their crawl space. This made them worry about the structural build and stability of their home. They did some research on our website and came across our foundation and crawl space repair products. They called our office line to schedule a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Rick Weber. Rick went to their home to inspect their walls and come up with a solution. After a clear and detailed diagnosis, the homeowner was comfortable with Rick's proposal, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his production team installed two of our PowerBraces on the inside foundation, enabling the foundation wall to stabilize and straighten back into its normal position. Over time, PowerBraces can be tightened by the homeowner to make sure the walls aren't bowing in or tilting.

Andrew and Sonya G. of Glyndon, MN had an old farmhouse that was settling and needed to be leveled. They wanted a professional to take a look and give a quote on getting it jacked back up to its original position. Our office staff got in contact with them and set them up with a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist. Our Design Specialist went to their home and proposed our SmartJack Foundation Repair System, which Andrew and Sonya were comfortable with, so they moved forward with the project. 

Our Foreman and his production crew installed three of our SmartJacks. Our SmartJacks provide solid support to undersized beams, which restores the stability and straightness to sagging floor joists in a basement or crawl space. Over time, homeowners can adjust the tightness to ensure the system is sticking to its design. Andrew and Sonya were happy and their peace of mind was restored knowing they no longer had to worry about the structural support of their farmhouse!

Paul from Elizabeth, MN got in contact with us when he began to notice that his floor was sloping. Wanting to correct the issue before it could worsen, he called our office to see if we could help. When we spoke with him, we set him up with our FREE estimate and a few weeks later our Design Specialist, Evan, headed out to the property to assess the situation. After he finished his walkthrough, he recommended the use of our SmartJack structural support jacks. Evan explained to Paul that our SmartJack system is comprised of galvanized steel beams that can support loads of more than 60,000 lbs. He went on to say that the system provides solid support for sagging and undersized beams, restoring stability and straightness to sagging floor joists in a crawl space.

Once installed in your crawl space, SmartJack support posts can correct problems such as sloping and overly springy floors, interior wall cracks, and out-of-level door frames. Paul agreed with Evan's recommendations and work began a few weeks later. 

After our Foreman, Zach, and his team finished, they installed 2 of our SmartJacks and one of our supplemental support beams in the basement of Paul's home. Now Paul can walk across an even floor without worrying about floor joists bowing.
