Before & After Photos

Dennis S. of Jamestown, ND had a bowing wall in his basement, and he wanted to get it repaired before it bowed more. He called American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Kole. Kole went to Dennis's house, inspected his walls, and proposed our Wall Reinforcing System. Dennis was confident in Kole's proposal, so he went ahead with the installation. 

Our Foreman, Ryan, and his production team installed our CarbonArmor Reinforcing Strips to help reinforce the bowing walls. This system utilizes epoxy and carbon fiber strips to strengthen and stabilize the walls. In fact, it is proven to be 10 times stronger than steel.

Kelly S. of Jamestown, ND wanted her crawl space encapsulated and her sagging floors lifted. She knew of our Design Specialist, Ian, so she had him come out to her house for a FREE estimate and inspection. While Ian was there, he looked around and diagnosed the problems in the crawl space, and drew up a detailed solution. Kelly was confident in Ian's proposal, so she signed the contract, put down a deposit, and went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Ryan, and his crew started the project by installing our Crawl Space Support Posts, which lift and stabilize the sagging floors and floor joists. This system can hold up to loads of 60,000 pounds and is corrosion-resistant. It is also compatible with our crawl space encapsulation system, which in this case, Kelly did want hers encapsulated as well. Next, our crew installed our encapsulation vapor barrier around the entire crawl space, which is made to prevent mold, humidity, and pests, provide extra storage space, and save money on energy bills. Kelly was happy with the work and her peace of mind was restored!

Gordon H. in Hardwick, MN had cracks in two of his basement walls. He didn't think much of the cracks at first, but over time, the walls started bowing inward. Gordon knew how expensive replacing a foundation can be, so he started looking for a foundation repair contractor. While doing research online, he was directed to American Waterworks and he was pleased to see that we are foundation repair experts.

He contacted us to receive a FREE onsite estimate, so we sent our Design Specialist, Eric Hazelton, to his home to find a solution for him.

Eric recommended that we install 11 wall anchors along the two cracked walls in order to permanently secure the foundation. Gordon like Eric's proposal and felt it was a good fit for him, so we went ahead with the installation. 

Our team dug holes outside of the home where the rods would be anchored to the soil. Next, they drilled the rods through the basement walls into the soil and then locked them in with the anchors from the inside and the outside. The anchor is then tightened, and the wall straightens. The anchor system ensures that Gordon's walls are now permanently secured and stabilized. Our anchor system is backed by a lifetime warranty, so Gordon has peace of mind that it will never be a concern again.

Robert K. in Pipestone, MN noticed his floor sagging because there were not adequate supports in his crawl space to support the structure. One of the symptoms that alerted him to the problem was that his interior doors had started sticking. He knew it would only get worse over time if he ignored the problem, so he began to look for a foundation repair expert. He was directed to American Waterworks’ website during his research process and decided to have us come to his home and give him a FREE estimate.

One of our Design Specialists, Shane Nephew, evaluated Robert’s situation and was able to develop a solution. Shane recommended that we install SmartJacks and supplemental beams to permanently repair his foundation. Robert agreed that was the right option for him, so we scheduled an installation.

Foreman, Jose Castillo, and his crew leveled the dirt in the crawl space and started the installation process. It took three days for the SmartJacks and beams to be installed, but Robert will reap the benefits for a lifetime since our foundation repair products are backed by a lifetime warranty. Our team also installed a CleanSpace vapor barrier (not pictured) to make it an energy efficient space and protect from excess moisture. Robert now has peace of mind that he chose to permanently protect his most important investment.

Laura T.'s foundation bricks were pushing out in her basement in Pipestone, MN. She knew of our Design Specialist, Eric Hazelton, so he went to Laura's house to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. Eric proposed our Wall Anchor System, which is designed to straighten foundation walls back to their natural positions. Laura was confident in the product, so she went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Tremaine Jackson, and his production crew installed our wall anchors to straighten out the foundation wall. Wall anchors are installed independently and in order for them to work efficiently, there needs to be a lot of room outside of the home. This system is installed with heavy-duty earth anchors, long, metal rods, and anchor plates. Laura thought the crew did great and she was happy with the work!
