Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Ryan B. of Stoddard, WI had a crack in his foundation wall, causing him to worry about the stability of his home. He called American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE inspection with our Design Specialist, Rick. Rick went to Ryan's home, carefully examined his foundation wall, and drew up a solution that worked for him and his home repair needs. He was confident in Rick's proposal of our GeoLock Wall Anchor System, so he followed through with the project and got an installation date scheduled. 

Our Foreman, Tremaine, and his production manager began the project by digging small holes outside the home, beyond the foundation. From the interior foundation, Tremaine and his crew inserted a long, steel rod through to each hole outside of the home. At the ends of each rod, our crew installed an anchor and a wall plate which provides the pressure to make the system work. Our anchors extend out to the hard-packed soil, anchoring themselves and bracing the foundation wall, which stops inward movement. Over time, our anchors can be tightened by the homeowner to ensure the system is sticking to its design. To complete the installation, Tremaine and his team backfilled each hole, compacted the soil, and ensured the outdoor space was neater than when they found it.

A homeowner in Stoddard, WI, knew it was about time to schedule their annual maintenance appointment. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. After the maintenance appointment was set, we sent one of our Service Technicians, Kyle, to the home. Upon arrival, Kyle introduced himself to the homeowners and began his inspection. During his inspection, Kyle discovered that there was a slight separation between the cinder blocks. Kyle alerted the homeowner that this could lead to larger issues if not solved. Additionally, Kyle recommended that this wall be permanently stabilized to prevent further damage. The homeowners knew the high-quality work we completed and trusted Kyle's opinion, so they agreed with his recommendations. The plans were then directed to the assigned crew and production preparations began. Our Foreman, Raul, and his crew arrived at the home and prepared the wall for the CarbonArmor installation. CarbonArmor is a state-of-the-art solution that is used to fix cracks and bowing foundation walls. The crew installed seven CarbonArmor strips along the north basement wall. After the CarbonArmor was installed, the crew completed their job and cleaned up the work site. Yet again, the homeowners were impressed with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to stabilize another home's foundation.  

Robin P. of La Crosse, WI had a deteriorating foundation wall, causing her to worry about the structure of her home. She got in contact with American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Rick Weber. Rick went to Robin's house, carefully inspected their foundation, and determined a solution that would work for her and her needs. Robin was confident in Rick's proposal of our Wall Recovery System, so they got a date scheduled for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his crew sprayed our Wall Recovery System around the entire foundation wall perimeter, which is a special spray-on solution that is company-based and rebuilds deteriorating foundation walls. Robin was thrilled with the project and was shocked by how quick it took!

Julianne S. of La Crosse, WI had water leaking through the cracks of her foundation. She saw American Waterworks at the La Crosse County Fair, so she called our office and got some more information. She called our office line and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Chuck. Chuck inspected Julianne's basement, determined a plan, and proposed it to her. She was comfortable with Chuck's approach and presentation, so she signed his contract and got a date scheduled for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Raul A, and his crew installed our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain, which is an interior drainage system that guides water to the sump pump and collects water leakage from basement walls. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier, which is a protective blanket that saves money on energy bills, prevents water from invading the basement, and brings more light to the basement. Lastly, our team installed our Wall Anchor System, which is a rod-anchor installation that stabilizes foundation walls and straightens them over time. Julianne was very happy with the job and gave an A+ to Raul and his crew! 

A customer from La Crosse, WI got in touch with us when they began to notice that their basement wall was beginning to show the first signs of wall failure. Our customer knew that if she left the issue unresolved, she would run the risk of severely compromising the structural integrity of the home. When she called in, she used her FREE estimate to have our Design Specialist, Rick W. out to her property to do a thorough inspection of the issue. After Rick completed his walkthrough, he was able to make some recommendations as to how we could help. He recommended our GeoLock Channel Anchor system to fix the wall. He explained that 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, by connecting to an earth anchor embedded deep in the soil. Our customer agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Chris N. and his crew installed several anchors throughout the basement with no hassle. Once the job was completed, our customer was happy to know that they could go back to enjoying their home without worrying of their foundation failing!
