Cracked Foundation Restored in Saint Cloud, MN
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.

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.
