Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

If your foundation walls are bowing or showing signs of inward movement, repair work is needed. These signs are showing that your walls are weakening and these problems can create serious damage. These walls move inward due to expansive soils and pressure on the walls from the outside. 

Residents of Grafton, ND were seeing these exact problems in their foundation walls, making them worry about the value of their home. After doing their research, they called American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Richie Noreen. Richie went to the resident's home, carefully inspected their foundation walls, and drew up a well-detailed proposal of our PowerBraces, which are made to repair and stabilize bowing walls over time. The residents were confident in our presentation and proposal, so they followed through with the project. 

Our Foreman, Ryan Loe, and his production team installed our PowerBraces alongside the bowing foundation wall, enabling the wall to straighten back to its natural position. The homeowners were happy with the work that was performed and their peace of mind was restored!

John K. of Ottertail, MN had sagging floors going into his crawl space and the doors in his home were sticking to the door frame when he tried to open and close them. He realized he was in need of foundation repair. He came across American Waterworks and got a FREE inspection and estimate from our Design Specialist, Kole. Kole proposed our SmartJack System, which is designed to restore the stability and straightness of sagging floor joists. He was confident in Kole's proposal, so he signed the contract. 

Our Foreman, Cameron, and his production crew installed four of our SmartJacks, ensuring the floor was stable. John was happy with the repairs that were done and grateful we could help him with his problem!

Andy B. had a sinking deck, causing him to worry about the value of his home. He heard about American Waterworks so he called our office and scheduled a FREE inspection and quote. Our Design Specialist, Richie, went to Andy's home, inspected his sinking deck, and proposed our Helical Deck Piers, which are designed to shift the weight of the deck onto the strong supporting piers. Andy was confident in the product and its features, so he went ahead with the project.

Josh from Henning, MN got in contact with us when he began to notice his foundation was showing signs of sinkage. Josh could see visible cracking and wanted to get ahead of the issue before it could create a bigger problem. After doing research about companies providing the services he needed, he came across our website. He called our office and we set him up with our FREE estimate. A few weeks later our Design Specialist, Kole, headed out to the property to complete his inspection. Once he finished his walkthrough, he informed Josh that he was experiencing sinkage because of the soil under his home. He recommended the use of our helical pier on the section of the sinking foundation. He explained that our helical piers are the ideal solution for the small section of the foundation. Josh agreed and work began shortly after. 

A few weeks later our Foreman, Cameron, and his crew were able to install 9 of our helical piers around the foundation of the home. When the job was complete Josh was happy to know his sinking foundation was a worry of the past. 

A homeowner from Sauk Centre, MN, was growing more worried about his basement as the days passed. He had noticed that the floor above his basement was beginning to sag. He assumed this was a structural concern with the basement, and decided to find a foundation repair company in the area to consult with. When he found our website, he was impressed with other foundation repair jobs we had completed and decided to claim his FREE estimate. 

Several weeks later, Darin S, one of our Design Specialists, was headed out to the home. 

When Darin arrived, he was directed to the basement to begin his inspection. When he concluded, he met with the homeowner to discuss his recommendations. Darin explained that the sagging floor could be due to inadequate or shifting supports beneath the floor joists or lumber deterioration due to mold and rot, but that he had a solution. Darin recommended our SmartJack support system, a system that provides solid support for sagging and undersized beams, restoring stability and straightness to sagging floor joists. Once installed, SmartJack support posts can correct problems such as sloping and overly springy floors, interior wall cracks, and out-of-level door frames. The system can also be adjusted over time to provide additional straightening and leveling action if necessary. The homeowner liked Darin's approach to the problem and signed up for the project on the spot. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Matt Z, and his team effortlessly installed 6 SmartJacks in the basement of the home. Now, our customer can put his foundation worries in the past!
