Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A Redby, MN, had been keeping an eye on his basement wall for a few years now. A while back, he noticed that his basement walls were showing signs of cracking in multiple areas. He was concerned about what would happen if he left the issue alone, so he decided to seek a professional's input. After searching for MN foundation repair, he found our website. He signed up for his FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Ian S, headed out to the home.

Once Ian concluded his comprehensive inspection, he met with the homeowner to discuss the next steps. Ian informed the homeowner that we could help fix the issue with our PowerBrace wall repair system. Ian explained that The PowerBrace™ is a patented foundation wall repair system designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. These steel I-beams will stabilize the wall in its current position without further adjustment. Over time, the PowerBrace™ System can be tightened to make bowing or tilting walls straighter and more vertical. The homeowner liked the idea of having a system that could be adjusted as the house continued to settle, so he decided to schedule his installation for several weeks later. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Aaron R, and his team installed 7 of our PowerBrace's throughout the basement of the home. Now, our homeowner can breathe a bit easier knowing the foundation of his home is adequately protected.

Brandon S. of Bismarck, ND had an addition on his home, and its floor was sagging. He saw an American Waterworks billboard, so he called our office line and learned more about our FREE estimates. He scheduled an estimate with our Design Specialist, Ian. Ian went to Brandon's house to inspect his sagging floor and come up with a solution. Ian proposed our Crawl Space Support Posts (also known as SmartJacks), which is a system that provides solid support for sagging beams. As Brandon learned more about the system, he became more interested. Soon enough, he decided to move forward with the project. 

Our Foreman, Cameron, and his crew installed four of our Crawl Space Support Posts to correct the sloping floors. They also can be adjusted over time by the homeowner to ensure the system is sticking to its design. Brandon was happy with the installation and was glad he chose American Waterworks!

Tracy from Bismarck, MN was experiencing some problems in her home. Her floor in her living room was sinking into the basement and felt a rippling motion throughout the house whenever there was movement. Tracy was concerned about the foundation of her home and contacted the Appointment Center here at American Waterworks to claim her FREE estimate. This entitles Tracy to a free home inspection. Once the appointment was set, our Design Special then attended to Tracy's property and began a thorough home inspection to properly diagnose the house and propose a proper solution that would help solve the issue and prevent other issues from arising. Our Design Specialist proposed to Tracy to invest in our SmartJack system. Our SmartJack system is made to provide support for oversized or sagging beams, restoring stability and straightness. Tracy agreed and scheduled an appointment for installation 

Our Foreman and the production team then installed five of our SmartJacks along the support beam of the home. Before installing the SmartJack, the production team dug a hole two feet deep. Then they backfilled the hole with engineer fill which is designed to dissipate the amount of force the SmartJack is experiencing. Once the SmartJack was set the team proceeded to use CleanSpace to encapsulate the crawlspace to prevent moisture and mold to affect the rest of the foundation. Tracy was thrilled and impressed with the project from start to finish!

Holly F. of Mandan, ND had a deteriorating foundation, and she wanted to get it repaired before it got worse.

Troy G. in Selfridge, ND had cracked and bowing foundation walls in his basement. He was worried about the structural stability of his home, so he got in contact with our office staff at American Waterworks. Our staff set him up with a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Richie Noreen. Richie went to his home, carefully inspected his foundation walls, and provided him with a solution. Troy was confident in Richie's proposal of our GeoLock Wall Anchors, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Corey Tollefson, and his production team began the installation by digging small holes outside of the home. From the inside of the basement, our team drilled a long, medal rod through the wall to each hole outside of the home. On the ends of each rod, our crew screwed on and tightened a GeoLock Wall Anchor. This wall anchor system stabilizes the foundation wall by anchoring the walls to the hard-packed soil beyond the foundation. To complete the project, Corey and his team backfilled each hole and replaced the soil, leaving the yard looking neater than when they found it. Troy was happy with the work and had a great experience!
