American Waterworks Before & After Photos

A Rochester, MN, homeowner was down in his basement doing laundry one evening when he noticed a large crack running the length of the basement. Worried about what this could mean for the structural integrity of the home, he decided to find a foundation repair company in Rochester, MN. He quickly found American Waterworks and signed up for his FREE estimate. 

Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Ross J, was headed out to the home. When Ross arrived, he got right to work assessing the foundation of the home. When he finished, he met with the homeowner. He began by informing the homeowner that foundation walls are not designed to withstand pressure on the side of the wall. So when the pressure exceeds what the wall can withstand, it's not uncommon for homeowners to see bowing, cracking, tilting inward at the top, and/or sliding in at the bottom of the wall. For this reason, Ross wanted to use our GeoLock wall anchors. These anchos counteract the pressure being put on the wall by anchoring it to the undisturbed, hard-packed soil beyond the foundation of the home. The homeowner was thrilled with Ross's explanation and solution, and signed on the spot. 

A month or so later, our team was on their way to install the anchors. Our Foreman, Jesus C, and his team effortlessly installed 9 of our GeoLock anchors in the basement of the home. Now, our homeowner can confidently continue their everyday lives, knowing that their foundation is stable. 

A homeowner in Rochester, MN, was cleaning their basement when they noticed cracks growing along their foundation wall. Anxious this could lead to serious issues, the homeowner knew they needed to find a permanent solution. Knowing they could not complete the project themselves, the homeowner began looking into "cracking foundation repair near me". At the top of the list was us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided to take a deeper dive into the products we offer. The homeowner liked that we offer award-winning foundation repair products, so they decided to go ahead and sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Ryan. A few days later, Ryan arrived at the home and began the thorough inspection of the interior and exterior foundation. During his walk-through, Ryan confirmed the foundation as compromised by settlement. To prevent the issue from continuing, Ryan recommended installing GeoLock Wall Anchors on the suffering wall. Knowing this was their best plan of action, the homeowner decided to go ahead with Ryan's recommendations. Next, Ryan passed the proposal to our Logistics team to build and schedule the project. Once the project details were confirmed, our Logistics team scheduled the project for the following month. The project date arrived, so our Foreman, Chris, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Chris and his crew made sure the walls were ready. Next, Chris and his crew shifted to installing the GeoLock Wall Anchors. Chris and his crew installed five GeoLock Wall Anchors on the south wall. After the GeoLock Wall Anchors were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was delighted with the excellent work completed by the crew, so they cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was relieved to know their foundation walls were no longer suffering. American Waterworks is happy to provide their homeowner's peace of mind. 

A homeowner in Rochester, MN, knew it was time to repair their crumbling walls. Unsure why it was crumbling, the homeowner began looking into "wall systems for basements". After looking through several companies, only one caught their attention, American Waterworks. Once the homeowner took a closer look at our foundation repair products, they knew we were the ideal company for their project. The homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate, and we sent Ian to take a closer look. During the inspection, Ian confirmed the foundation needed to be permanently stabilized and recommended waterproofing the basement. The homeowner agreed, then they worked with Ian to schedule an installation date. Once the installation date came, our Foreman, Luis, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Luis and his crew installed WaterGuard around the basement perimeter. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew installed seven Push Piers and two SmartJacks in the basement. Finally, the crew finished by installing CleanSpace on the unfinished basement wall. Once all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. American Waterworks is happy to provide its homeowners peace of mind knowing their basement is secure. 

A homeowner in Rochester, MN, noticed that his settling concrete driveway had caused bumps to form in some areas. Frustrated when he had to drive over them, he decided to have the issue addressed by looking for concrete lifting in the area. The homeowner found us and, after looking into our company, he contacted our Appointment Center to schedule his FREE estimate. 

In about a week, our Design Specialist, Nate B., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, Nate explained to the homeowner that the likely reason their concrete is sinking is due to soil compaction. When a soil's load-bearing capacity is exceeded, it causes the soil to compact and settle beneath the concrete. As this happens, the concrete slab would move down with it. To fix this issue, Nate recommended PolyLevel, our high-density polyurethane formula that stabilizes and lifts sinking concrete. Its expanding properties would compact the soil and effectively lift the slab without the trouble of mudjacking or complete replacement. After looking over Nate's proposal, the homeowner happily agreed to his recommendations.

In about two weeks, our Foreman, Troy J., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew began by drilling small holes into the slabs. PolyLevel is then injected beneath the slab. Once the slabs have been lifted to the desired level, the crew seals the holes. Lastly, the crew cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

A homeowner in Rochester, MN, was experiencing wet basement issues and noticed signs such as standing water, leaking walls, musty smells, and mold growth. After realizing that the problem would not improve over time, the homeowner began searching for basement waterproofing companies in Rochester, MN. The homeowner found us and contacted our Appointment Center to schedule her FREE estimate.  

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Michel R., arrived at the home to provide a thorough inspection, answer any questions, and create the best solution for the homeowner. During the inspection, Michel confirmed that one of the likely reasons the homeowner is facing a wet basement is due to a poor drainage system. For this reason, Michel recommended installing WaterGuard, our elite drainage system that collects water at the perimeter of the basement and sends it to the sump pump, TrenchDrain, similar to WaterGuard but along the entryway, CleanSpace, our vapor wall barrier that prevents water vapor from permeating the walls, SuperSump+, our sump pump system that is capable of removing 2,200 gallons of water per hour, and IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line that allows water to escape in sub-zero temperatures. After looking over Michel's recommendations, the homeowner happily agreed and decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Jeromy A., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew installed 118ft of WaterGuard and CleanSpace, 3ft of TrenchDrain, 1 SuperSump+, and 1 IceGuard. Once they were done with the installation, the crew cleaned up their equipment and left the home.
