Ms. Thompson contacted to address concerns that her interior foundation was beginning to crumble and water would pour through the cracks in the basement walls when it rained. Jeremy was able to point out that her foundation was bowing significantly and without the proper stabilization, her foundation walls were eventually going to collapse. Jeremy crafted a solution with our GEOLOCK wall anchor and WaterGuard basement waterproofing systems. Combined, these two patented solutions will prevent any further water damage and permanently stabilize and straighten the foundation walls of her Waseca, MN home.
The Stewarts upgraded their basement to include a RockWell egress window. They can now enjoy a more attractive window alternative that is code-compliant and backed by a 5 year warranty.
Judy F. in Waseca, MN contacted American Waterworks after being referred to us by a previous satisfied customer. She wanted to finish the bedroom in the basement, but the current sump pump was unable to keep up after heavy rains. Water was pooling on the floor, and she needed a permanent solution. Our Design Specialist, Eric Hazelton, met with Judy and proposed our WaterGuard drainage system and provided her with our sump pump options.
Our Foreman, Cole Brinkman, and his production crew installed our WaterGuard drainage system, our SuperSump sump pump, and our CleanSpace vapor barrier along the walls. The combination of these products ensures that any water seepage will be guided through the WaterGuard, to the sump pump, and from there will be discharged from the home.
A homeowner in Waseca, MN was tired of dealing with the state of his sunken concrete walkway. Over time as the slabs had continued sinking, a large gap had formed between the front stoop and walkway. He was worried about people leaving from the front door and losing balance from how deep the step down was. For a temporary solution, he made a homemade third step out of wood, but knew that a permanent solution should be made. During his search online for concrete repair companies he found many positive American Waterworks reviews and was interested in signing up for one of our FREE estimate appointments. We sent Design Specialist Mike Dexter to the home where he inspected the area and gave his recommendations. Mike explained that our PolyLevel solution was the perfect way to lift the sidewalk slabs back up and eliminate the height gap. The homeowner agreed to the plans, and they were approved and sent over to Foreman Patrick Burnes and his crew. When the crew went to the site, they installed the PolyLevel as well as our NexusPro sealant for the joints, resulting in a smooth surface again. The homeowner was thrilled with the results and glad he found our services.

A homeowner from Waseca, MN, had been keeping an eye on his home's foundation for years now. Small cracks had slowly been forming over the years. The homeowner was slowly growing more and more concerned about the issue and decided to address the problem. He began to look for foundation repair companies in Minnesota and quickly found our website. He signed up for his FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Eric H, was scheduled to stop at the home.
When Eric arrived at the property, he got right to work assessing the basement. The homeowner's concerns were quickly validated, as Eric explained that foundation walls are designed to withstand pressure from the top, not the sides. He went on to say that when side pressure on a wall exceeds what the wall can withstand, cracking, bowing, and tilting inward can occur. For this reason, Eric wanted to use our GeoLock wall anchors to fix the problem. Eric explained that GeoLock anchors counteract the pressure being put on the wall by anchoring the failing wall to the undisturbed soil beyond the foundation. In many instances, these anchors can be tightened as time goes on to give the home more stability as it continues to settle. The homeowner was thrilled with Eric's solution and signed on the spot.
On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Raul B, led his team through the installation of 13 of our GeoLock anchors around the foundation of the home. Now, our customer can rest easy knowing his foundation issues have been conquered!
