Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Clear Lake, IA was working on yard work when they noticed a large crack growing along the side of their home. Worried there was a larger issue at hand, the homeowner began looking into foundation repair near them. After comparing several companies, the homeowner decided to work with us, American Waterworks. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the appointment was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of one of our Design Specialists, Ryan. Ryan arrived at the home and began the detailed investigation of the foundation. After he had completed the in-depth estimate, Ryan approached the homeowner with his concerns and suggested a solution to stop the issue from progressing. The homeowner trusted Ryan's suggested solution and the plans were directed to the office for the final stamp of approval. The office sent the plans to our Foreman, Diego, and crew. Once they received the plan, the crew traveled to the home and started the project. First, the crew prepped the wall for the GeoLock Wall Anchor installation. GeoLocks is our innovative wall anchor system that permanently stabilizes your foundation wall by anchoring the walls to untouched soil beyond your foundation. The crew installed three GeoLock Wall Anchors along the north foundation wall. Once all the GeoLocks were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was in awe of the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is glad to assist another homeowner in securing their unstable foundation. 

A homeowner in Clear Lake, IA, noticed the stair-step cracks in their wall were worsening over time. Concerned it would never get better, the homeowner wanted to find a permanent solution. After comparing several companies, only American Waterworks stood out to the homeowner. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. After the estimate was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of one of our Design Specialists, Ryan. Once Ryan arrived, he began his thorough investigation of the cracked and damaged basement wall. Ryan determined the wall cracks were being caused by improperly filled soil. To stop the cracks from growing and spreading, Ryan recommended stabilizing the wall using GeoLock Wall Anchors. The homeowner agreed with Ryan's suggestions, so the plans were passed along to our office, and then to our Foreman, Chris. Once Chris received the plans, he and his crew traveled to the home to begin the project. Once they arrived, they started by installing five GeoLock Wall Anchors to the west basement wall. Once all the GeoLock Wall Anchors were secured, the crew completed the project and cleaned up their materials. The homeowner was in awe of the excellent and swift work completed by the crew.
