Before & After Photos

Sharon H. of Saint Cloud, MN had a cracked foundation wall in her basement, and she was worried about the stability and structural build of her home. She went on Google and researched foundation repair contractors that service her area. She came across American Waterworks and our foundation repair products, so she called our office line and scheduled a FREE estimate with our team. Our Design Specialist, Ryan, went to her home and carefully inspected the problems that she was facing. After a thorough inspection, Ryan proposed our GeoLock Channel Anchors. Sharon was comfortable with the product and its warranty, so she went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Luis, and his production team began the project by introducing themselves to Sharon and ensuring all of her questions were answered. After a thorough introduction, our team got to work and dug two holes outside of the home, beyond the foundation. Our team inserted a long, metal rod from the inside of the foundation to each hole outside of the home, and installed an anchor plate to the end of the rod in the soil, which holds and secures it in place. Next, our team installed a GeoLock Channel Anchor to the end of each rod against the inside of the foundation wall. Our GeoLock Channel Anchors are made to stabilize walls that are bowing, tipping, pushing in at the bottom, or tilting at the top. To complete the project, our team backfilled the holes, compacted the soil, and ensured the yard was neater than when they found it. Sharon was happy with the project and had a great experience from appointment to installation!

Chad M. in Hollandale, MN noticed that a wall in his basement had cracked and was bowing inward. He was concerned about the pressure this was putting on his foundation and the potential damage it could cause, so he started looking for a foundation repair contractor. He saw a commercial for American Waterworks and was glad to see that we specialize in foundation repair. He contacted us and set an appointment for a FREE onsite estimate.

We sent a Design Specialist to his home to evaluate the situation and find a solution. While onsite, our Design Specialist noticed that another wall in his basement was also bowing. In order to protect his foundation, our Design Specialist recommended that we install 5 wall anchors and 9 wall braces. Chad knew how costly it can be to replace a foundation, so he decided it was in his best interest to permanently stabilize his walls.

The installation took a few days, however, our foundation repair products are backed by a lifetime warranty, so Chad will never again have to worry about the stability of his foundation. Chad is glad he chose to protect his home for the long-term.
