Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Homeowners in Saint Hilaire, MN had a deteriorated foundation wall that they wanted to get fixed up and repaired. They found American Waterworks online and contacted our office staff through our online chat. Our Design Specialist went to the homeowner's house to inspect their foundation wall and determine a solution. After a thorough inspection, the homeowners were confident in the proposal, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman and his crew installed our Wall Recovery System, which is a special, company-based foundation repair spray-on solution that rebuilds deteriorating walls. It gives the foundation a nice appearance and is much stronger than concrete.

A homeowner in Stirum, ND, discovered a separation between cinderblocks on their basement wall. Aware that this could lead to a significant problem, the homeowner sought for a professional opinion. While sifting through many foundation repair companies, the homeowner came across American Waterworks. In addition to foundation repair, the homeowner noticed American Waterworks can complete a multitude of jobs. Certain they were the perfect match, the homeowners signed up for their FREE estimate. We sent out our Design Specialist, James, to complete an assessment of the home. Following his thorough inspection, James suggested that the homeowners permanently stabilize the foundation. Trusting his expertise, the homeowners agreed and stabilization prep began. Our Foreman, Kingsley, and his crew arrived at the home and the job began. The crew started by installing five Geo-Locks on the south wall. After the Geo-Locks were attached, the homeowner decided to include the Geo-Lock Tightening kit, so they could straighten the walls over time. Next, the crew shifted to installing CleanSpace on all the basement walls. After all the products were installed, the crew cleaned the job site and left the home better than it was before. The homeowners were relieved to see know the struggling wall was properly supported. American Waterworks is happy to bring another homeowner peace of mind.

Kim, from Crookston, MN began to notice a bow in the foundation walls of her home. The bowing of the wall resulted in the cracks that are caused within the foundation allowing water to seep through causing a wet basement.  Kim then contacted the Appointment Center here at American Waterworks expressing her major concern and claimed her FREE estimate entitling her to a full home inspection. Once the appointment was set our Design Specialist then attended her home and began a thorough home inspection to get a proper diagnosis of the situation and provide the best solutions to help Kim not only solve her issue but prevent any other issues from arising. Once the inspection was done, our Design Specialist recommended that Kim should invest in our PowerBrace Wall System.  Kim agreed with the solution and proceeded to schedule a date of installation.

Once set our Foreman, Cameron Phrakonekham, and his Crew began to strategically place PowerBraces around the basement, inserting a total of 6 PowerBraces to further stabilize the wall. The PowerBrace system is an I-shaped beam that stabilizes and helps straighten the bow of the wall over time. The PowerBrace system is drilled into the support beams of the home and the concrete, on which the home lies. 

Now Kim lives worry-free that the foundation of her home is in any jeopardy of worsening. If you are experiencing a similar issue contact American Waterworks today and claim your FREE estimate!! 

Nathan from Arthur, ND, was beginning to notice interior signs of foundation failure in his basement, in the form of cracks running down his wall. He was afraid that if he left the issue unresolved, he would run the risk of the issue worsening, compromising the structural integrity of the home. He decided to call our office and we set him up with our FREE estimate, entitling him to a free inspection of the issue, and recommendation as to how we could help fix it. A few weeks later our Design Specialist headed out to the property to see what could be done. After his walkthrough, our Design Specialist recommended raising the foundation with the help of our Push Pier system. He explained that this system is made of steel and is driven deep into the soil beneath a foundation to solve settlement problems. Push piers can be installed inside or outside your foundation walls and are not visible once the repair is complete. In many scenarios, push piers not only stop settlement but lift the foundation back to its original position, closing cracks and improving window and door operation. Nathan agreed with the recommendation and work began a few weeks later. 

Our Foreman, Domenic, and his crew ended up installing 20+ push piers around the exterior of the home, connected to the foundation footing. Once the project was completed, Nathan was happy to know he no longer had to worry about his homes foundation!
