Helical Pier Stabilizes Home in Fargo, ND

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! 

Basement Wall Restored with Anchors in Fargo, ND

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!  

Deteriorating Wall Repaired in Fargo, ND

Patricia M. of Fargo, ND had a deteriorating foundation wall, causing her to worry about the structural build and stability of her home, and even living in her home.

Ian went to her home, carefully inspected her problems, and came up with a solution that worked for her and her foundation repair needs. She was confident in Ian's proposal, so she went ahead with the project and got a date scheduled for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Matt Zeller, and his crew began the installation by picking up all the rock and debris off the basement floor and hauling it to their truck. Next, our crew installed 58 feet of our ShotLock Wall Restoration System which is a fast alternative to demolishing and rebuilding a deteriorating foundation. It restores the safety and property value with minimal disturbance to the home and its surroundings and it is twice as strong as standard concrete.

Inward Bowing Walls Repaired in Fargo, ND

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.
