A homeowner in Anoka, MN, worried about the status of their foundation walls. Unsure of who to work with, the homeowner asked a local Facebook group for any suggestions. Several people recommended reaching out to us, American Waterworks. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. As soon as their appointment was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of Rick, one of our Design Specialists. Once Rick arrived at the home, he began his evaluation of the foundation. Following his detailed analysis, Rick recommended stabilizing the foundation walls. After evaluating all their options, the homeowner decided to go with Rick's recommendations. Once they earned the stamp of approval, our Foreman, Luis, and his crew began the foundation repair project. When they arrived, the crew started by installing four PowerBraces on the north foundation wall. Once the PowerBraces were secured into place, the crew attached five CarbonArmor strips onto the same wall. The crew successfully installed all the foundation stabilization products, so they cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was relieved to know their foundation was stable. American Waterworks is happy to provide another homeowner peace of mind.
An Anoka, MN, homeowner was making dinner one night when she noticed her kitchen floors seemed to be sagging in a few areas. It occurred to her that her kitchen was directly over the crawl space of the home, and was immediately uneasy about what this could mean for the stability of her home. She took to the internet to find crawl space repairs near Anoka, MN, and quickly found our website. She was impressed by other projects we had done in her area and decided to claim her FREE estimate.
When our Design Specialist, Nick S, arrived at the home, he was directed to the crawl space to begin his estimate.
When he concluded, he met with the homeowner to deliver his recommendation. First, Nick explained that the crawl space needed a supplemental beam, and our SmartJack system. He explained that our SmartJack system is an adjustable supplemental support system used for sagging crawl spaces. It not only provides supplemental support to your failing structure -- it can also often lift failing floor joists or beams, restoring them to their original position. This crawl space support system is unique in that it's made with strong, corrosion-resistant, galvanized steel. Because your system will not develop rust, it will remain adjustable for years, should you need to perform future adjustments. The homeowner liked the sound of Nick's plan and signed on the spot.
On the day of the project, our Foreman, Jesus C, and his team effortlessly installed 20 ft of Supplemental Beam, and 3 SmartJacks. Now, our customer has renewed faith in her space!
A homeowner in Anoka, MN, noticed water damage throughout their basement. Knowing this could be a sign of a larger issue, the homeowner looked into "leaky basement waterproofing near me". At the top of the list stood us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided to take a closer look at our services. Impressed with our stellar ratings and reviews, the homeowner knew it was their best option. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Jesse. Jesse promptly arrived at the home and began the thorough inspection of the basement. During his inspection, Jesse confirmed the basement was suffering from water intrusion. To prevent the issue from continuing, Jesse recommended installing WaterGuard and replacing the current sump pump. The homeowner knew this was their best plan of action, so they decided to go ahead with Jesse's recommendations. Next, the proposal was sent to our Logistics team to build and finalize the project. Our Logistics team built an scheduled the project for the following month. Once the project date arrived, our Foreman, Jesus, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Jesus and his crew started by installing WaterGuard throughout the basement. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew shifted their focus to taking out the old sump pump and replacing it with the TripleSafe sump pump. After the TripleSafe was secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to provide their homeowners peace of mind knowing their basement is secured.
Nick in Waconia, MN just moved in to a new home and discovered cracks in his foundation and a bowing basement wall. He was concerned about the value of his home and the potential problems these foundation issues could cause if left alone, so he contacted American Waterworks to have one of our foundation repair experts inspect his foundation. Our Design Specialist, Chad Johnson, determined that Nick’s best option was to repair his foundation using wall anchors. Chad explained the process and let Nick know that repairing his foundation will solve the problem in an efficient and cost-effective way, so Nick chose to move forward with having our system installed.
Our production team installed 14 wall anchors along the perimeter of Nick’s foundation walls in his basement. We drilled long metal rods through the brick walls and into the soil surrounding the home. Then we secured the rods with anchor plates on each end and tightened them. After the installation, the walls became stable and began to straighten. Our foundation repair products are guaranteed for a lifetime, so Nick is confident that he chose the right solution for his home!

Angelina S. of Waconia, MN had cracked and bowing foundation walls. In fact, on rainy days, water would come into her basement. She worked with American Waterworks for the repairs. Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his crew installed our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain, CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier, and our Wall Anchors to waterproof the basement and repair the foundation walls. Our WaterGuard is an interior drainage system that collects water seepage from basement walls. Our CleanSpace is a vapor barrier that prevents mold and humidity, while also saving money on energy costs. Lastly, our wall anchor system is a special anchor-rod installation that stabilizes foundation walls and allows the wall to straighten back to its normal position. To complete the entire installation, Juan and his team filled the open-floor gaps (that were broken out with a jackhammer) with river rock and an additional layer of concrete. Angelina was thrilled with the work and could not believe the beautiful transformation!
