Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

In Fargo, North Dakota, a homeowner was growing concerned for her basement. Over the years, the homeowner had noticed a variety of cracks beginning to form across the wall. Not having any knowledge of what causes foundation issues, the homeowner decided to begin the search for a foundation repair company in or around Fargo. She quickly found American Waterworks through the recommendation of a friend, and decided to set up her FREE, no-obligation estimate. Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, James Nelson, headed out to the home to see if we could help the situation. 

James conducted his thorough inspection, after which he met with the homeowner to go over his findings. James informed the homeowner that her foundation was suffering from foundation failure, likely caused by the excess weight on the side of the wall. He went on to say that, while the situation was serious, he had the solution to restore safety and stability to her home - our PowerBrace system. James explained that our PowerBrace system is the elite choice for basement repair in Fargo ND. This patented foundation wall repair system is designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. He finished by saying that the installation was non-invasive, which spoke volumes to the already stressed homeowner, who decided to schedule the project for later that month. 

On the day of the installation our Foreman, Emmanuel, and his team made quick work of James' recommended solution. When they completed the work, our customer was thrilled to know that her home was now secure and safety, and would stay that way for years to come.

Deb W. of Fargo, MN had settlement issues with her home, making her worry about the structural engineering of her home. After hearing about American Waterworks, she called our office line and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Rick Weber. Rick went to her home to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. He proposed our helical piers foundation repair products, which help create a supportive base that transfers the weight of a home to its supporting soils. Deb got all of her questions answered, so she scheduled an installation date.

Our Foreman, Matt Zeller, and his production team began the installation by digging out the soil surrounding the home. Matt and his crew mechanically screwed sections of the helical pier into the soil. Once the pier met its depths, our crew installed foundation brackets below the footing. The weight of the home was able to transfer through the helical pier to deep soils. Lastly, Matt and his crew replaced the soil to make sure the yard looked neater than when they found it. Matt said the homeowner was extremely happy with the project and was grateful she could open her windows again!

Dale H. of Fargo, ND had a cracked wall in his basement due to poor soil pressed against the outside foundation. He wanted repairs right away so he went to the Red River Valley Home and Garden Show to find a contractor who could help him. He came across our American Waterworks booth and discussed his problems with our Design Specialist, Rick Weber. Rick went to his home for a FREE Estimate to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. Dale was confident in Rick's proposal, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Tremaine Jackson and his production team began the project by digging eight holes outside of the home and inserting a long, metal rod from the inside of the basement to each hole. Next, our team installed and tightened a GeoLock Wall Anchor at the ends of each rod to straighten and stabilize the wall back into its original position. To complete the installation, Tremaine and his team backfilled each hole and replaced the soil, leaving the yard clean and neat. Dale was happy and appreciated all efforts involved!  

Joe and Janessa D. of Fargo, ND had bowing walls in their basement, making them worry about the structural build and stability of their house. They knew of our Design Specialist, Ian Schultz, so they talked to him about coming out to their home for a FREE estimate. Ian went to their house, carefully inspected their walls, and drew up the solution of our GeoLock Wall Anchor System. Joe and Janessa felt confident in the videos, pictures, and graphics of the product that Ian showed them, so they went ahead and signed Ian's contract and wrote out a deposit check. 

Our Foreman, Corey Tollefson, and his production team started the installation by digging holes outside of the home beyond the foundation. Next, our team inserted a long, metal rod from the interior foundation to each hole outside of the home. At the end of each rod in the soil, our team installed an anchor plate, which provides the pressure against the inside of the foundation wall. Next, from the interior foundation, our team installed a GeoLock Wall Anchor to the end of each rod to stabilize the foundation wall and pull it back into its normal position. Over time, the homeowner can tighten the anchors to ensure that the system is working properly. To finish the installation, Corey and his crew backfilled each hole outside of the home, compacted the soil, and ensured the yard looked neat and cleaned up.
