A homeowner in Viroqua, WI, knew they had a large repair job on their hands. Overwhelmed by all the issues with their foundation, the homeowner knew they needed to have a professional inspect their home. The homeowner remembered seeing an American Waterworks vehicle in their neighborhood, so they went to our website to do some more research into our company. After seeing all the services we provide, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Chuck, to the home to complete the estimate. When Chuck arrived, he began his inspection of the basement and found several issues. Chuck's main concern was the status of the home's foundation. After alerting the homeowner, he provided them with a solution that would permanently stabilize their foundation. Chuck recommended installing GeoLocks and PowerBraces around the perimeter of the basement. The homeowner agreed with Chuck's recommendations, so the plans were directed to our Foreman, Luis, and his crew. After the crew arrived at the home, they immediately began their work. First, the crew installed 20 GeoLock anchors around the basement. Then, the crew installed four PowerBraces on the east foundation wall. The crew successfully installed all the foundation stabilization products, so they cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed by the excellent work done by the crew.

Doug S. in Altoona, WI was getting ready to sell his home, but he was concerned about the two cracked and bowing walls in his basement. He knew that if he did not repair the foundation, it would drastically reduce the value of the home. A friend recommended that he contact American Waterworks to help with his foundation problem, so he gave us a call for a FREE estimate. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Jeremy Radtke, to his home to inspect his foundation walls and to provide him with a solution. Doug was pleased with the thorough proposal that Jeremy developed, so they scheduled the installation of our foundation repair system.
Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his crew installed 10 wall anchors total (5 on each cracked wall). They drilled holes through the brick walls and inserted long metal rods. Next, they secure the metal rod with plates on each end. Took a full day, but our wall anchors are backed by a lifetime guarantee, so Doug has peace of mind that he chose the right solution to protect the foundation of the home. He no longer has to be concerned about losing value on the home because he took the appropriate measures to prepare for putting it on the market.

Jeremy, from Altoona, WI, got in contact with us when he noticed a crack in the foundation of his home was worsening over time. He was afraid that if he didn't fix the issue, water would begin to enter through the crack, causing expensive damage to his home. When he contacted us, he used his FREE estimate, entitling him to a 3-hour thorough inspection by a member of our Sales team. Our Design Specialist, Chuck, headed out to the property to inspect the damage and see how we could help Jeremy. Once Chuck completed his walkthrough, he recommended our helical piers to address the failing foundation. He explained that our helical piers have helical plates welded to the pier shaft, helping to pull the pier into the soil during installation and provide anchoring strength as the weight of the foundation or structural element is transferred to the pier. They have a great deal of versatility for stabilizing and restoring foundation or masonry elements. Chuck wanted to address any further structural issues with our GeoLock wall anchors. He told Jeremy that our GeoLock anchors are the ideal solution to permanently stabilize the foundation by anchoring the wall to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond the foundation of the home. Once installed, this system can be tightened over time if needed. Jeremy agreed to the proposed solution and work began shortly after. Our Foreman, Jose, and his crew ended up installing 10 helical piers along the Northern part of the wall. The crew installed 5 GeoLock anchors along the same wall and finished the job by sealing the crack forming in the foundation to keep unwanted water out.
When the work was done, Jeremy was happy with the work we had done and was relieved to know that his foundation worries were a thing of the past!
