A homeowner in Wabasha, MN, was doing some landscaping in her yard when he noticed a crack running up her foundation. She was concerned because he didn't know if the crack continued below the foundation. He spoke with neighbors about the problem and was directed to American Waterworks. He signed up for his FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Michel, headed out to the home to inspect the problem. Once he completed his inspection, he explained to the homeowner that her foundation was settling, which American Waterworks could help with. He went on to say that a failing foundation that is left unaddressed won't get better over time. Michel wanted to use our Helical Piers to stabilize and lift the foundation. Michel explained that our helical piers are the premier choice to lift the foundation back to its original position. These piers are mechanically advanced into the soil using small construction equipment or hand equipment. As they are installed to appropriate depths and capacities, they prevent any future settlement issues. The homeowner agreed with the proposal, and the foundation repair project was scheduled to be completed a few weeks later.
Our Foreman, Luis, and his crew installed 3 of our helical piers on the failing side of the home. Now our homeowner can resume her daily life without worrying about her home's foundation!

Kathie B.'s limestone and brick foundation wall was deteriorating, but she was unsure how thick the layer of brick was and was not sure how to fix the issue. She got in contact with our team at American Waterworks and set up a FREE estimate to get her deteriorated wall inspected. Our Design Specialist proposed our Wall Recovery System, which is a special system that our team developed. Kathie got all of her questions answered about the product, so she signed the contract and got a date scheduled for the installation.
Our Foreman and his production team installed 238 square feet of our Wall Recovery System to repair and rebuild the failing wall. This system is two times stronger than concrete and can be installed in one day. Kathie was thrilled with the work and was beautified by the transformation!

Jon K. in Durand, WI had a cracked and bowing basement wall that was only getting worse over time. He started doing some research online and came across the American Waterworks website. He was happy to learn that we’ve been successfully repairing foundations for 30 years! We sent one of our Design Specialists, Dustin Loftus, to evaluate the situation and propose the best solution. Jon was impressed with our products and moved forward with the project.
Our Foreman, Jose Castillo, and his production crew were able to stabilize the foundation wall with the installation of 5 Geo-Lock Channel Anchors. Channel Anchors are installed with minimal disturbance to the lawn and landscaping and mount to the foundation floor and wall for optimal bracing and failure protection. Jon was impressed with the quick installation and is glad he made the investment to protect his home!

Gerald B. of Durand, WI needed foundation repair work as soon as possible before it got worse. He did some research online and came across American Waterworks. He called our office line and set up a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Charles Haldeman. Charles went to his home, inspected his foundation and came up with a solution that fit his needs and budget. Gerald went ahead with the proposal and scheduled an installation date.
Our Foreman, Matt Zeller, and his production team installed our ShotLock around the entire wall perimeter of the basement. Our ShotLock is a spray-on solution made to demolish and rebuild a deteriorating foundation. It is faster and less expensive than a foundation replacement, it restores the safety and property value with minimum disturbance to the home, and it is a fully warrantied repair. Gerlad was thrilled with the work and had a remarkable experience!
Robert P. in Rockford, IA found that one of the foundation walls in his crawl space had started settling and bowing inward.
