Before & After Photos

Robin P. of La Crosse, WI had a deteriorating foundation wall, causing her to worry about the structure of her home. She got in contact with American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Rick Weber. Rick went to Robin's house, carefully inspected their foundation, and determined a solution that would work for her and her needs. Robin was confident in Rick's proposal of our Wall Recovery System, so they got a date scheduled for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his crew sprayed our Wall Recovery System around the entire foundation wall perimeter, which is a special spray-on solution that is company-based and rebuilds deteriorating foundation walls. Robin was thrilled with the project and was shocked by how quick it took!

A customer from La Crosse, WI got in touch with us when they began to notice that their basement wall was beginning to show the first signs of wall failure. Our customer knew that if she left the issue unresolved, she would run the risk of severely compromising the structural integrity of the home. When she called in, she used her FREE estimate to have our Design Specialist, Rick W. out to her property to do a thorough inspection of the issue. After Rick completed his walkthrough, he was able to make some recommendations as to how we could help. He recommended our GeoLock Channel Anchor system to fix the wall. He explained that this warrantied solution includes a complete wall anchor system and a channel anchor that mounts on your foundation floor and wall for optimal bracing and failure protection, by connecting to an earth anchor embedded deep in the soil. Our customer agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Chris N. and his crew installed several anchors throughout the basement with no hassle. Once the job was completed, our customer was happy to know that they could go back to enjoying their home without worrying of their foundation failing!

A homeowner from La Crosse, WI, was in the process of remodeling his home when he tore out a large section of drywall and uncovered a large crack in his basement wall, which seemed to be bowing inward. The homeowner did some research on his own and wondered if foundation anchors would save the basement. The homeowner knew he was in over his head, so he took to the internet to search for 'residential foundation repair near me' and quickly found our website. He signed up for his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Chuck H, was out at the home. 

Chuck performed his inspection and then met with the homeowner. He began by informing the homeowner that foundation walls are designed to withstand loads from above, not the side. So when the pressure on the side of the wall exceeds what it can withstand, it's not uncommon for homeowners to see cracking, bowing, sliding in at the bottom, and/or tilting inward at the top. Chuck could tell the homeowner was growing uneasy with the diagnosis, so he quickly reassured the homeowner that we could help remedy the issue. He informed the homeowner that his assumption hadn't been far off and that he was recommending our GeoLock wall anchors. Chuck elaborated, stating that this innovative system works to counteract foundation failure by anchoring the wall to the hard-packed undisturbed soil beyond the foundation, permanently stabilizing your basement walls, and offering the best opportunity to straighten the walls without the cost and disruption of foundation replacement. The homeowner was thrilled with Chuck's recommendation and scheduled the job on the spot. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Victor S, and his team effortlessly installed 5 of our GeoLock anchors on the problem walls in the basement. Now, our customer can continue the remodel, knowing that their foundation will stand the test of time!

A homeowner from La Crosse, WI, was worried about his basement. One of his foundation walls had a large crack running lengthwise on the wall. He was worried that if he let the issue worsen, it might compromise the structural integrity of the home. He decided to look for foundation repair Wisconsin, and quickly found our website. He set up his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Mac C, was out at the home. 

After Mac concluded his estimate inspection, he met with the homeowner and informed him that he was experiencing foundation issues because the wall was facing pressure from the side. Foundation walls are designed to withstand loads from the top, not the side.  When the pressure becomes too much for the wall to withstand, it's not uncommon for homeowners to see cracking, bowing, sliding in at the bottom, and/or tilting inward at the top. Mac went on to reassure the homeowner that there was a solution: our GeoLock anchors. This innovative system counteracts the pressure on the wall by anchoring it to the hard-packed undisturbed soil beyond the foundation. The homeowner was thrilled with Mac's solution and scheduled the job to be installed the following month. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman and his team successfully installed 7+ GeoLock anchors in the space Now, our customer can breathe easy knowing his basement walls aren't going anywhere!

Maryann and John A. of Onalaska, WI had a damp crawl space with sagging floors. One of their local contractors referred American Waterworks, so they called our office and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Chuck. Chuck inspected their crawl space and proposed a solution that would benefit their home repair needs. Maryann and John were confident and comfortable with Chuck's proposal and presentation, so they moved forward with the project.

Our Foreman, Juan, and his crew started the project by installing our CleanSpace Encapsulation Vapor Barrier which prevents mold, mildew, and pests, and also saves money on energy costs because of its ability to keep the space warm. Next, our crew installed our SmartJacks which are steel, galvanized beams that support and stabilize sagging floor joists. Maryann and John were thrilled with the project and could not believe the transformation from start to finish!
