A Hutchinson, MN, couple got in touch with us when they noticed that stair-step cracks were forming on their basement walls. Worried about what this could mean for the structural integrity of the home, they began the search for MN foundation repair companies. When they found our website, they decided to sign up for their FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Lance S, headed out to their home to evaluate the issues.
Once Lance completed his walkthrough, he informed the homeowners that American Waterworks could address the failing foundation with the help of our GeoLock wall anchors. Lance explained that this innovative wall anchor system will permanently stabilize your foundation wall by anchoring your walls to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond your foundation. He went on to say that after installation, wall anchors can often be tightened over time to further straighten your foundation walls and pull them back to their original position. The couple liked the sound of having a system that could be stabilized as time goes on, and decided to schedule the project for a month later.
On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Kevin M, and his team ended up installing 14 of our GeoLock anchors throughout the lower level of the home. Now our customers can rest easy knowing their foundation issues have been addressed!

Robert and Laurie F. of Lafayette, MN had water leaking under their basement stairs so our Design Specialist, Chad Johnson, went to their home and educated them on our sump pump systems. Robert and Laurie were confident with the trusted solution so they scheduled an installation date.
Our Foreman, Jose Castillo, and his production team broke out the concrete around the pre-existing sump pump and replaced it with our SuperSump Pump System, which keeps basements dry for long periods of time. They filled the small gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Robert and Laurie no longer have water seeping problems!
After a heavy rainstorm, a homeowner in Mandan, ND, noticed their basement walls were leaking water. Concerned this was a sign of a major water intrusion issue, the homewoner knew they needed to find an expert to provide them with a solution and peace of mind. The homeowner looked into "basement leak repair near me," and one of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks. Impressed with a near 5-star rating, the homeowner knew that we were the ideal company for their project. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once their estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, James. A few days later, James traveled to the home to begin the inspection. During the inspection, James found that several areas throughout the basement required waterproofing. After completing the inspection, James recommended waterproofing the basement perimeter. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner decided to go ahead with James' proposal. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Roel, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Roel and his crew secured WaterGuard around the basement perimeter. Next, the crew took out the old sump pump and replaced it with the TripleSafe sump pump. Finally, the crew attached CleanSpace to the unfinished basement wall. Once all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their matierals and left the home. The homeowner was given peace of mind knowing their basement was properly secured. American Waterworks is happy to provide its customers peace of mind knowing their basement is properly waterproofed.
Cody L. of Grand Forks, ND had a damp basement and he wanted to get it waterproofed before it got any worse. He did some research on HomeAdvisor and came across our profile. He requested a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Richie Noreen. Richie went to his home to inspect his problem and come up with a solution. After a thorough inspection, Cody was comfortable with the proposal, so they went ahead with the project.
Our Foreman, Brian Colliton, and his production team began the installation be breaking out the concrete floor perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard System, which serves as an underground drain, prevents water clogs, and collects water seepage from basement walls. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier around the wall perimeter. Our CleanSpace is made to prevent mold, humidity, rot, and mildew, and it covers any divots or big holes. To complete the installation, our crew covered the open gaps with rock and replaced the concrete. Cody said he was very satisfied with the completed project and had a great experience from start to finish!
Teresa T. of Grand Forks, ND had sagging floors falling into the crawl space of her home, causing her to worry about the structural build and strength of her home. She got in contact with our office staff and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Ian Schultz. Ian went to her home, thoroughly inspected the sagging floors, and came up with a solution that fit her needs and budget. Ian proposed our SmartJack Crawl Space Support System, which provides solid support for sagging and undersized beams, restoring the stability and straightness of sagging floor joists in a crawl space. Teresa was confident in the product and its warranty, so she scheduled an installation date.
Our Foreman, Ryan Loe, and his team installed eight of our SmartJacks, along with their assist brackets that holds them in place. Because of the SmartJack design, they can be adjusted over time to provide additional straightening and leveling if needed.
