Before & After Photos

Brett from Burnsville, MN found out his foundation was in jeopardy when he noticed cracks that were being created by the bowing of the foundation wall. Brett started to worry about the structure of his home and was looking for a cost-effective solution. Brett then contacted the Appointment Center at American Waterworks and schedule his FREE estimate which entitled Brett to a free home inspection by our Design Specialist. Once the appointment was scheduled, the Design Specialist headed out to Brett's home to conduct a thorough inspection to provide Brett with the best solution to solve his problems and prevent the wall from bowing any further. Our Design Specialist proposed to Brett that the best solution to prevent any further bowing of the wall is our CarbonArmor solution. The CarbonArmor is a carbon fiber strap that goes alongside the wall and stabilizes the foundation and is attached to the wall with a special epoxy. The CarbonArmor strengthens due to the pressure that is applied to it. Brett agrees with the proposition and proceeds with the project. Once the installation date was scheduled, our foreman Chris Newton proceeded to install four CarbonArmor straps alongside the issue wall. Brett was impressed with the quick installation and the cost of the proceeding, and his peace of mind was restored knowing that he did not have to worry about the foundation of his home!!

David, who owns a cabin in Shevlin, MN, noticed some issues with his basement space. Unfortunately, the block wall on the east side of the home was cracking and bowing. He contacted us as he realized these were signs of failing. He feared he might risk compromising the home's structural integrity if he left the issue unresolved. When he called in, we set him up with a FREE estimate. Shortly after his appointment was scheduled, our Design Specialist, Ian, headed out to the property. After Ian completed a thorough walkthrough, he explained how our team would properly address the issue.

Ian talked to David about installing our GeoLock Wall Anchors to correct the issue. He explained that this innovative system permanently stabilizes foundation walls by anchoring them to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond the foundation. He went on to say that the anchors can be tightened over time. David agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Tanner, and his crew headed out to the cabin and got to work. The team installed 75of our GeoLock anchors throughout the basement wall. They discussed with David that it is recommended to use the tightening kit every 4-6 weeks and that we would be in contact in 9-12 months to schedule his 1st Annual Maintenance. At the end of the project, David was happy to know that his basement walls were no longer an issue. 

A homeowner in Maple Grove, MN, knew their foundation was struggling. After holding it off for long enough, the homeowner began their search for a solution. After seeing our advertisement in Shopwise Maple Grove, the homeowner was interested in our services. The homeowner called the number on the paper and was connected to our Appointment Specialists. After signing up for their FREE estimate, the homeowner awaited the arrival of Daniel, one of our Design Specialists. Daniel traveled to the home to meet with the homeowner and investigate the foundation. Following introductions, Daniel completed a full inspection of the home's foundation. Daniel discovered that the wall was showing early signs of wall failure. To stop the wall failure from continuing, Daniel suggested installing GeoLocks around the entire foundation. Wanting their home to be safe, the homeowner agreed with Daniel's recommendations. Once they were approved, the plans were sent to our Foreman, Luis, and his crew. After they arrived at the home, the crew began installing 28 GeoLock anchors around the entire foundation.  Along with the GeoLock anchors, the crew included a straightening kit. This will allow the walls to be straightened over time. The crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to stabilize another home's foundation.

In about a week, our Design Specialist, Jason S., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, he took a close look at the foundation and noted how much it had shifted. After reporting his findings, Jason worked closely with the homeowner on creating a tailored solution to their foundation problems. He recommended securing the wall with PowerBrace, our steel i-beams installed against the foundation to halt further movement. Happy it's backed by a lifetime warranty, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Raul B., and his crew arrived for the installation, where they successfully installed 8 PowerBraces. Now, our customer can have peace of mind! Experiencing signs of a bad foundation? Click HERE to schedule your FREE estimate today!
