A homeowner in Hector, MN, was rummaging through their basement when they noticed a concerning large crack along their back foundation wall. Knowing they couldn't fix this on their own, the homeowner decided to look for professional help. The homeowner began searching for the foundation repair closest to them, and our company caught their eye. After looking through our foundation repair services, the homeowner knew we were the best option for them. The homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate on our website. Once the estimate details were set, one of our Design Specialist, Ryan, made their way to the home. After Ryan arrived at the home, he introduced himself to the homeowner and began evaluating the foundation. Ryan determined that the foundation walls needed to be permanently stabilized. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner agreed and production commenced. Our Foreman, Matt, and his crew were assigned to complete the project, so they made their way out to the home. The crew began by installing eight GeoLock anchors along the east and south foundation walls. Additionally, the crew installed four PowerBraces on the west foundation wall. The homeowner also requested that the tightening kit be included, so the walls can be straightened gradually over time. The crew successfully stabilized both walls and finished the project. The homeowners were relieved to know that their walls were saved from possible failure. American Waterworks is happy to provide another homeowner peace of mind in their home.
Sharon H. of Saint Cloud, MN had a cracked foundation wall in her basement, and she was worried about the stability and structural build of her home. She went on Google and researched foundation repair contractors that service her area. She came across American Waterworks and our foundation repair products, so she called our office line and scheduled a FREE estimate with our team. Our Design Specialist, Ryan, went to her home and carefully inspected the problems that she was facing. After a thorough inspection, Ryan proposed our GeoLock Channel Anchors. Sharon was comfortable with the product and its warranty, so she went ahead with the project.
Our Foreman, Luis, and his production team began the project by introducing themselves to Sharon and ensuring all of her questions were answered. After a thorough introduction, our team got to work and dug two holes outside of the home, beyond the foundation. Our team inserted a long, metal rod from the inside of the foundation to each hole outside of the home, and installed an anchor plate to the end of the rod in the soil, which holds and secures it in place. Next, our team installed a GeoLock Channel Anchor to the end of each rod against the inside of the foundation wall. Our GeoLock Channel Anchors are made to stabilize walls that are bowing, tipping, pushing in at the bottom, or tilting at the top. To complete the project, our team backfilled the holes, compacted the soil, and ensured the yard was neater than when they found it. Sharon was happy with the project and had a great experience from appointment to installation!
