American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A Rochester, MN, homeowner was down in his basement doing laundry one evening when he noticed a large crack running the length of the basement. Worried about what this could mean for the structural integrity of the home, he decided to find a foundation repair company in Rochester, MN. He quickly found American Waterworks and signed up for his FREE estimate. 

Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Ross J, was headed out to the home. When Ross arrived, he got right to work assessing the foundation of the home. When he finished, he met with the homeowner. He began by informing the homeowner that foundation walls are not designed to withstand pressure on the side of the wall. So when the pressure exceeds what the wall can withstand, it's not uncommon for homeowners to see bowing, cracking, tilting inward at the top, and/or sliding in at the bottom of the wall. For this reason, Ross wanted to use our GeoLock wall anchors. These anchos counteract the pressure being put on the wall by anchoring it to the undisturbed, hard-packed soil beyond the foundation of the home. The homeowner was thrilled with Ross's explanation and solution, and signed on the spot. 

A month or so later, our team was on their way to install the anchors. Our Foreman, Jesus C, and his team effortlessly installed 9 of our GeoLock anchors in the basement of the home. Now, our homeowner can confidently continue their everyday lives, knowing that their foundation is stable. 

A homeowner in Rochester, MN, was cleaning their basement when they noticed cracks growing along their foundation wall. Anxious this could lead to serious issues, the homeowner knew they needed to find a permanent solution. Knowing they could not complete the project themselves, the homeowner began looking into "cracking foundation repair near me". At the top of the list was us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided to take a deeper dive into the products we offer. The homeowner liked that we offer award-winning foundation repair products, so they decided to go ahead and sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Ryan. A few days later, Ryan arrived at the home and began the thorough inspection of the interior and exterior foundation. During his walk-through, Ryan confirmed the foundation as compromised by settlement. To prevent the issue from continuing, Ryan recommended installing GeoLock Wall Anchors on the suffering wall. Knowing this was their best plan of action, the homeowner decided to go ahead with Ryan's recommendations. Next, Ryan passed the proposal to our Logistics team to build and schedule the project. Once the project details were confirmed, our Logistics team scheduled the project for the following month. The project date arrived, so our Foreman, Chris, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Chris and his crew made sure the walls were ready. Next, Chris and his crew shifted to installing the GeoLock Wall Anchors. Chris and his crew installed five GeoLock Wall Anchors on the south wall. After the GeoLock Wall Anchors were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew, so they cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was relieved to know their foundation walls were no longer suffering. American Waterworks is happy to provide their homeowner's peace of mind.

April H. in Rochester, MN had water leaking into her basement and she was concerned about the damage it was causing to her home and the potential health implications it could cause. She contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate, so one of our Design Specialists, Mac Cole went to her home to inspect her basement and design the right solution. April was pleased with the proposal and was eager to have the waterproofing system installed, so she scheduled the installation.

Our Foreman, Austin Lucas, and his crew installed WaterGuard around the perimeter of the room and a TripleSafe sump pump in the corner. Our TripleSafe is backed by three layers of protection and is our most reliable sump pump. They also installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier along the walls to protect the room from moisture and potential mold growth. The WaterGuard properly drains water to the sump pump and from there, the water is pumped through the discharge line and expelled from the home. April is pleased that her basement is now a dry, healthier space and she is glad she chose to invest in the long-term protection of her home.
