Challenge

A homeowner in Petersburg, ND, noticed their foundation was cracked. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner knew they needed to solve the issue before it worsened. The homeowner looked into "cracked foundation repair near me" and one of the first companies to catch their eye was us, American Waterworks. The homeowners saw our stellar ratings and reviews, so they knew we were the best company to work with. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. As soon as their estimate was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of Dylan, one of our Design Specialists.

Solution

Dylan arrived at the home and began his thorough investigation of the interior and exterior foundation. After he completed his detailed walk-through, Dylan was able to determine the foundation was suffering from settlement and needed to be permanently stabilized. To stop the cracks from continuing, Dylan recommended installing several foundation repair products in the home. The homeowner agreed with Dylan's recommendations, so the proposal was sent to our Office to be approved. Our Logistics team received the plans, and then built and scheduled the project. Our Foreman, Kingsley, and his crew were assigned to complete the project. After they received the plans, Kingsley and his crew traveled to the home to begin the project. Following their arrival, Kingsley and his crew began by installing PowerBraces along the east wall. PowerBraces is a foundation repair system that is designed to stabilize failing walls. Next, the crew shifted their focus to installing nine GeoLock Wall Anchors along the east and south foundation walls. GeoLock Wall Anchors permanently stabilize your foundation walls and have the potential to straighten them back to their original position. Finally, the crew completed the project, by installing ten CarbonArmor strips along the west and north foundation walls. The CarbonArmor system will permanently stabilize your foundation walls using fiber-reinforced polymer. After all the products were installed, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was relieved to know their basement was properly secured and safe. If you notice your walls are cracked, sign up for your FREE estimate today!
