American Waterworks Before & After Photos

In Eagle Lake, MN, a homeowner had noticed multiple cracks forming in their basement walls. Unsure of the cause and knowing the issue would only worsen without a long-term solution from a trusted contractor, the homeowner began looking into foundation repair in MN and found our website. Impressed by our foundation repair photos, the homeowner knew we would be the right company and scheduled their FREE estimate.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Tony B., arrived at the home to conduct a thorough inspection of the basement. During the inspection, Tony took note of where the cracks were and how far the foundation had shifted. He also worked closely with the homeowner on a solution that would fix the issue while being within their budget. Tony recommended installing PowerBrace, our wall reinforcing system, which is installed against the walls to stop further movement. Happy that our product comes with a warranty and that it was a long-term solution, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Lane S., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew was able to successfully install 21 PowerBraces to secure the homeowner's foundation.

A homeowner in Joice, IA, noticed that they had some concrete slabs that had settled in front of her home. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner knew they needed to find an expert to provide them with a solution. The homeowner decided to look into "sunken concrete repair near me". At the top of their list was us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. The homeowner was interested in our PolyLevel lifting and leveling solution to repair the concrete. We sent one of our Design Specialists to meet with the homeowner and evaluate the situation. The homeowner was happy to learn that our PolyLevel option is a faster, more durable, and affordable alternative to mudjacking or total concrete replacement.

Our crew drilled pencil-sized holes into the concrete slabs that needed to be raised. Then, they injected the PolyLevel foam until the concrete was raised and leveled. Lastly, they filled the cracks in the concrete with our NexusPro sealant. The process was non-invasive, and it only took a couple of hours. The homeowner is glad they will be able to enjoy a level walkway for years to come!

Jim, a Grey Eagle, MN homeowner, had bowing walls in his garage that needed stabilizing. After looking at what American Waterworks does, he scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Shane. Shane went to the home to inspect the problem and devise a solution. After thoroughly examining, Shane explained that water-saturated soil can sometimes exert enough pressure to cause foundation walls to bow, bulge, or tilt. Shane suggested that Jim invest in Power Braces to permanently stabilize the wall and SmartJacks to restore and straighten sagging floor joists to combat this. Jim was confident in Shane's proposal and went ahead with the project. 

Our crew, led by Foreman Matthew, headed to the property shortly after and got to work. First, they installed 1 7'10' SmartJacks. The SmartJack system restores stability and straightens sagging floor joists, which can be adjusted over time to provide additional straightening and leveling if necessary. Next, the team installed 11 of our PowerBraces to repair the failing wall. Our PowerBraces are designed to straighten walls and can be tightened by the homeowner over time to ensure the walls stay straight. Since this system has a special zinc coating, corrosion is not an issue. Our PowerBraces can be installed with no disruption to outside soils or landscaping. It installs quickly in the home, immediately halting the inward movement of foundation walls. Jim was impressed with the project's efficiency and quality of work, and he was glad to know that his bowing wall was no longer an issue.
