Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Roger D. in New Ulm, MN had two bowing foundation walls in his basement. He was concerned about the damage it could be causing to his foundation, so he decided it was time to have a professional inspect his situation. He began researching foundation repair contractors and came across American Waterworks' website. He contacted us, and we sent one of our Design Specialists, Eric Hazelton, to his home to evaluate the situation and provide him with a solution. Eric addressed Roger’s questions and was able to develop a thorough plan to stabilize his walls. Roger felt that Eric’s proposal was a good fit for him, so he set a date for the installation.

Our production crew installed 11 wall anchors along the two walls. Once the anchors were tightened, Roger was able to visibly see the difference in the stability of the walls. Roger was glad he chose a permanent solution to repair his foundation. Our wall anchor system is backed by a lifetime warranty, so Roger will always have peace of mind that his home is protected.

A homeowner in Monticello, MN, noticed their basement ceiling was sinking, so they attempted to fix it themselves. The homeowner placed a wood post in the middle of the room, holding up the ceiling. Knowing this fix would not last forever, the homeowner knew they needed professional assistance. Unsure of who to work with, the homeowner looks at the best basement repair companies in their area. During their search, the homeowner came across our stellar reviews and ratings. Impressed, the homeowner decided to go to our website and sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, we sent one of our Design Specialists, Ryan, to the home to complete the evaluation. Once he arrived, Ryan began his inspection of the basement and confirmed the post needed to be replaced. Ryan suggested replacing the post with one of our SmartJacks, and the homeowners agreed. Once they received approval, the plans were directed to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Gustavo, and his crew arrived at the home to begin the installation. First, the crew removed the wood post from its position. Then, the crew replaced the old post with the SmartJack. Once the SmartJack was secured into place, the crew cleaned up their materials. The homeowners were grateful for the excellent work completed by the crew, so they left a kind review. American Waterworks is glad to help another customer feel safe in their home.

Ken and Margaret F.'s foundation wall was bowing in Glencoe, MN. Their realtor recommended American Waterworks for the repairs. They got in contact with our company and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist team. Our Design Specialist went to their home, inspected their foundation wall, and determined our Wall Anchor System for the repairs.
