Bowing Wall Repair in Bemidji, MN

In Bemidji, MN, a homeowner was concerned about his basement. The homeowner had recently purchased the home, and was aware of a vertical crack running the length of his basement wall. Instantly concerned about what an unstable foundation could mean for his home, he decided to look for a bowing wall contractor in the area. After doing research online, the homeowner found American Waterworks. He was impressed with our reviews, and decided to claim his FREE estimate. Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Ian S, was scheduled to head out to the home to evaluate the basement. When he arrived, he was directed to the basement where he began performing his inspection. When he was satisfied with his evaluation he met up with the homeowner to go over his recommendations. Ian began by saying that foundation walls are designed to withstand loads from the top, not from the sides. When the side pressure being applied on the wall becomes too much for it to withstand, it's not uncommon for homeowner to experiencing cracking, bowing, or tilting in at the top or bottom of the wall. Ian went on to say that while the issue was serious, we could provide a solution. Ian wanted to use our GeoLock C Channel Anchors. This system permanently stabilizes and repairs bowing or tilting foundation walls, without the cost and disruption of total foundation replacement. This warrantied solution includes a complete wall anchor system and a channel anchor that mounts on your foundation floor and wall for optimal bracing and failure protection. The homeowner was relieved to hear that he did not need to replace his entire foundation, and decided to book the project on the spot. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Aaron R, and his team arrived at the property and made quick work of the installation. When the project had been completed our customer was thrilled to know he no longer needed to worry about his failing foundation!
