A homeowner in Clear Lake, IA, grew extremely concerned when they saw that several of the cracks in their wall were growing. Instead of letting the issue worsen, the homeowners began looking into expert solutions near them. The homeowner ended up looking into basement waterproofing companies near Rochester, MN, and found us, American Waterworks.

After the estimate was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of Ryan, one of our Design Specialists.

Solution

After Ryan arrived at the home, he began his detailed inspection of the basement. Following the inspection, Ryan found that the walls were separating due to soil settlement. To stop the settlement, Ryan recommended permanently stabilizing the west basement wall. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner agreed with Ryan's recommendations. Once they received the stamp of approval from the homeowner and the office, the plans were sent to our Foreman, Chris, and his crew to begin the project. Chris and his crew arrived at the home and began the project by prepping the walls for the GeoLock installation. GeoLock Wall Anchor system permanently stabilizes your foundation wall and has the potential to straighten it back to its original place. Chris and his crew installed five GeoLock Wall Anchors to the west basement wall. After all the basement walls were secured, the crew cleaned their materials and left the home. The homeowner was grateful for the excellent work completed by the crew. If you notice your basement walls are cracking, sign up for your FREE estimate today!
