A homeowner in Charles City, IA, noticed a large crack growing on their wall. Concerned by this discovery, the homeowner knew they needed to solve it before the issue worsened. The homeowner looked into "bowing foundation repair near me" and one of the first companies to catch their eye was us, American Waterworks. After seeing our award-winning solutions, the homeowner knew we were the best company for their project. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate. After the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of Brady, one of our Design Specialists. Brady arrived at the home and began his thorough inspection of the foundation. During his investigation, Brady confirmed the walls were bowing. To stop the bowing from continuing, Brady recommended installing GeoLock Wall Anchors on the walls. The homeowner agreed and the proposal was sent to our Logisitcs team to build the project. Once the project was finalized and scheduled, it was assigned to our Foreman, Gabriel, and his crew. Gabriel and his crew traveled to the home and began the installation. First, the crew made sure the walls were ready for the GeoLock Wall Anchors. Once the walls were ready, the crew installed five GeoLock Wall Anchors. 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. American Waterworks is happy to stabilize their customer's bowing walls.

Doug S. in Altoona, WI was getting ready to sell his home, but he was concerned about the two cracked and bowing walls in his basement. He knew that if he did not repair the foundation, it would drastically reduce the value of the home. A friend recommended that he contact American Waterworks to help with his foundation problem, so he gave us a call for a FREE estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Jeremy Radtke, to his home to inspect his foundation walls and to provide him with a solution. Doug was pleased with the thorough proposal that Jeremy developed, so they scheduled the installation of our foundation repair system.
Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his crew installed 10 wall anchors total (5 on each cracked wall). They drilled holes through the brick walls and inserted long metal rods. Next, they secure the metal rod with plates on each end. Took a full day, but our wall anchors are backed by a lifetime guarantee, so Doug has peace of mind that he chose the right solution to protect the foundation of the home. He no longer has to be concerned about losing value on the home because he took the appropriate measures to prepare for putting it on the market.

Jeremy, from Altoona, WI, got in contact with us when he noticed a crack in the foundation of his home was worsening over time. He was afraid that if he didn't fix the issue, water would begin to enter through the crack, causing expensive damage to his home. When he contacted us, he used his FREE estimate, entitling him to a 3-hour thorough inspection by a member of our Sales team. Our Design Specialist, Chuck, headed out to the property to inspect the damage and see how we could help Jeremy. Once Chuck completed his walkthrough, he recommended our helical piers to address the failing foundation. He explained that our helical piers have helical plates welded to the pier shaft, helping to pull the pier into the soil during installation and provide anchoring strength as the weight of the foundation or structural element is transferred to the pier. They have a great deal of versatility for stabilizing and restoring foundation or masonry elements. Chuck wanted to address any further structural issues with our GeoLock wall anchors. He told Jeremy that our GeoLock anchors are the ideal solution to permanently stabilize the foundation by anchoring the wall to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond the foundation of the home. Once installed, this system can be tightened over time if needed. Jeremy agreed to the proposed solution and work began shortly after. Our Foreman, Jose, and his crew ended up installing 10 helical piers along the Northern part of the wall. The crew installed 5 GeoLock anchors along the same wall and finished the job by sealing the crack forming in the foundation to keep unwanted water out.
When the work was done, Jeremy was happy with the work we had done and was relieved to know that his foundation worries were a thing of the past!
Steve in Ostrander, MN had sunken and uneven steps that were causing a safety hazard and detracting from the beauty of his home. He contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate, so our Design Specialist, Kevin Kreofsky, went onsite to provide him with an inspection and solution. Steve was pleased to learn that our PolyLevel foam solution is faster, less invasive and more durable than traditional concrete repair.
Our PolyLevel expert, Jared Wroblewski, and his assistant drilled small holes into the concrete and injected the polymer foam until the steps were raised back to their original position. Then, they sealed the cracks in the concrete with our NexusPro joint sealant and cleaned their work area. This process only took a couple of hours to complete, and now Steve can enjoy a beautiful and safe front porch for years to come!
