Before & After Photos

A homeowner in New Hampton, IA, knew it was time to have their cracked, unstable walls repaired. Unsure who to work with, the homeowner asked their neighbors for recommendations. Their neighbors recommended working with us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided to take a closer look at our company. After seeing our impressive ratings and reviews, the homeowner knew we were the best company for the job. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of Brady, one of our Design Specialists. After Brady arrived at the home, he began the thorough walk-through of the basement. Brady found that the walls were showing early signs of wall failure. To stop the failure from continuing, Brady recommended installing several wall stabilizing products. The homeowner agreed with Brady's proposal, so he sent the plans to our Logistics team for approval. After the plans were approved, they were assigned to our Foreman, Jesus, and his crew to begin. Jesus and his crew traveled to New Hampton and began the installation. First, Jesus and his crew began by installing 16 PowerBraces along all the walls. Next, the crew shifted their focus to installing three Carbon Armor strips on the wall. Finally, the crew installed seven SmartJacks on the walls. After all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was relieved to know their walls were properly secured and stable. American Waterworks is happy to stabilize its homeowner's struggling foundation walls. 

The customer was concerned about water problems and a bowing foundation wall. American Waterworks was able to straighten the wall, waterproof the foundation, and apply a vapor barrier.

Bridget M. in Racine, MN noticed that her floor had started sagging and realized that it was because her crawl space was not properly supported. She saw an advertisement for American Waterworks and was interested to learn more about our crawl space repair solutions. She contacted us for a FREE estimate, so we sent one of our Design Specialists, Dustin Loftus, to her home to inspect her crawl space and recommend a solution. Bridget was pleased with Dustin’s proposal, so she scheduled the installation.

Our crew installed 12 SmartJacks and a supplemental beam in her crawl space to raise the floor back to its original position and provide permanent support. Our SmartJacks are guaranteed for a lifetime, so Bridget is confident that she chose the best long-term option to support her crawl space.

Lisa G. of Hampton, MN had bowed foundation walls in her basement, causing her to worry about the structural build of her home. Our Service Technician, Mitchell Sobotta, was at her home for an annual maintenance and talked to her about our PowerBrace Wall Repair System for her foundation problems. She felt confident in the product and what it could do for her home, so she went ahead and scheduled an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Spencer Garland, and his production team installed eight of our PowerBraces, which are steel beams that are made to keep bowing walls at bay. The PowerBrace System is designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. Along with that, PowerBraces include a zinc-coating that protects it from corrosion. Lisa was happy with the repairs and was grateful she did not have to worry about further foundation failure.

A homeowner in Hampton, MN, noticed the wood on the ceiling of their basement was rotting. Concerned by this discovery, the homeowner wanted to have a professional inspect the status of the basement. The homeowner was searching for a professional to complete the inspection and came across us, American Waterworks. After going onto our website and signing up for their FREE estimate, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Mac. Once he arrived, Mac began evaluating the basement. Mac determined that the home's main level floors needed to be stabilized and came up with a recommended solution for the homeowners. After hearing multiple versions of the solution, the homeowners picked the best fit for their home. Next, the plans were sent to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Victor, and his crew arrived at the home to begin production. The crew started by installing a main wood 6x6 beam across the center of the basement, to replace the rotting wood on the basement ceiling. Once the crew replaced the main beam, they placed five SmartJacks into the correct position. The SmartJacks reinforcement system provides solid support for sagging and undersized beams. After the crew successfully installed the SmartJacks, they cleaned up their site and moved on to their next project. The homeowners were happy to know their floors were professionally stabilized. American Waterworks is happy to help our customers make their homes more safe.
