Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Gary M. of Winona, MN had an inward bowing wall in his basement and he wanted to get it repaired before it got too late. He had previous work done by American Waterworks and had a good experience, so he decided to have work done by us again. Our Design Specialist, Mac, sold him our PowerBrace Foundation Wall Repair System, which is designed to stabilize failing basement walls, giving them the ability to straighten over time. Gary moved forward with our project and got a date scheduled for the installation. 

Our production Foreman, Matt, and his production crew installed our PowerBraces against the bowed foundation wall and completed the project in one day. Gary was happy with the repairs and his peace of mind was restored!

Carla C.'s foundation wall was cracking horizontally and bowing slightly. She went on Google, hoping to find a local contractor that could help her. She came across American Waterworks and our foundation repair products, so she scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Mac. Mac went to Carla's house, inspected the foundation wall, and determined the solution of our Wall Anchor System. Carla was comfortable and confident with Mac's presentation, so she went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Tremaine, and his production crew installed five of our wall anchors, which are heavy-duty galvanized earth anchors that are embedded into stable soil outside of the foundation wall. Each anchor is connected by a long, steel rod to a wall plate that provides pressure against the inside of the wall. This system provides the potential to straighten the wall back to its natural position. To complete the project, our Foreman gave a thorough walkthrough with Carla, ensuring she was happy and comfortable with the final product!

A homeowner in Alma, WI, was cleaning around their porch when they discovered that the foundation was cracking. Nervous about the effects it could have on the structure, the homeowner decided to have a professional visit to take a look. After seeing all the positive appraisals, the homeowner decided to contact American Waterworks for a FREE estimate. Once the appointment details were finalized, we sent our Design Specialist, Brian, to the home to evaluate the status of the foundation. Following his evaluation, Brain suggested that the walls be permanently stabilized and concrete be lifted. The homeowner agreed with Brian's suggestions and a crew was assigned to complete the task. Our Foreman and his crew went to the home and began the project.  The crew began by attempting to lift and level the concert in the garage using the PolyLevel. Additionally, they attempted to fill the crack on the garage floor. After lifting the garage floor, the crew shifted their focus to stabilizing the failing walls. For this case, the crew decided to incorporate Geo-Locks to stabilize the cracking wall underneath the porch. Finally, the crew cleaned the job site and ensured everything was installed properly. The homeowner was pleased with the completed project. If you are experiencing a similar issue, sign up for your FREE estimate today!
