A Pipestone, MN, homeowner had been keeping an eye on his home's foundation for a few years now. A while back, she noticed stairs-steps cracking and running up the wall. Not wanting any further damage to be done, she decided to begin the search for a foundation repair company near Pipestone, MN. On the recommendation of a friend, the homeowner decided to call American Waterworks and set up her FREE estimate. A few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Eric H, headed out to the home to see what could be done.
Once Eric finished his inspection, he informed the homeowner that we could fix the failing wall with the help of our GeoLock wall anchors. He explained that this innovative system is the perfect solution for walls facing stair-step cracking. This solution works to stabilize a home's foundation by anchoring the wall to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond the foundation. He finished by saying that our GeoLock anchors can be tightened over the years as the house continues to settle, giving homeowners long-lasting peace of mind in their foundation. the homeowner liked the sound of Eric's plan, and the project was scheduled for two months later.
On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Kiko, and his team successfully placed 16 of our GeoLock anchors around the perimeter of the basement. Now, our customer can enjoy her basement without worrying about the state of her foundation!

Megan and Andrew E. of Carrington, ND had a deteriorating foundation wall and water was leaking through it into their basement. They called American Waterworks and set up a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Richie Noreen. Richie went to their home, carefully inspected their problems, and came up with a solution that worked for them and their home repair needs. They were comfortable with Richie's proposal of our products and systems, so they went ahead with the project and scheduled an installation date.
Our Foreman, Corey Tollefson, and his production team began the installation by breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System, which is made to prevent mud and water clogs, serve as an underground drain, and collect water leakage from basement walls. Next, our production crew installed our SuperSump Plus M53 sump pump, which is designed to keep basements dry and works effectively with our WaterGuard. Lastly, our team applied our ShotLock Wall Restoration System around the basement wall perimeter, which is a spray-on solution that offers a fast alternative to demolishing and rebuilding a deteriorating foundation. To complete the installation, our team filled the open gaps with river rock and applied new concrete over it. Megan and Andrew were happy with the repairs and had a great experience from start to finish!

Patricia, a homeowner in Carrington, ND was experiencing water intrusion in her basement and searching for a way to solve the issue. She decided to claim her FREE inspection. Our Design Specialist, Kole, headed out to the property and completed his walkthrough; after making recommendations as to how American Waterworks could help, Patricia consulted with her son and decided to move forward with the project. Work began shortly after.
First, our Foreman and his crew added our WaterGuard system. This particular system is typically used in basements and is the premier choice for basement waterproofing. It is installed below the floor, but rests atop the foundation, keeping it out of the "mud zone", making it harder to clog. It works to trap water and sends it to an appropriate disposal site; our TripleSafe sump pump was used as an effective and economical sump solution. Next, the team installed Basement To Beautiful panels where the WaterGuard was installed. Even if you're not planning on finishing your basement, lacking proper insulation can still lead to cold floors and an inefficient home, and our Basement To Beautiful™ Basement Wall Panels are the superior choice for a dry, energy-efficient basement. Finally, they installed our CleanSpace solution instead to encapsulate the basement to prevent moisture and mold from affecting the rest of the foundation.
The team finished cleaning everything up, and Patricia was thrilled and impressed with the project from start to finish!
