Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Streeter, ND, noticed their floors were sagging. Unsure of the cause, the homeowner knew they needed to find a solution before it worsened. The homeowner decided to look into foundation repair near Streeter, ND. During their search, the homeowner's eye was caught by our elite foundation repair product lineup. The homeowner knew we were the best choice for their home, so they signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of Kole, one of our Design Specialists. Kole arrived at the home and began his thorough inspection of the property. During his investigation, Kole determined the foundation needed to be permanently raised and stabilized. Kole provided the homeowner with a proposal that would solve all their issues. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner agreed with the project. After they received the stamp of approval, Kole sent the plans to our logistics team for the project to be built. The Logistics team built the project and then scheduled it with our Foreman, Roel, and his crew to begin. Roel and his crew traveled to the home and started the SmartJack installation. First, Roel and his crew installed a supplemental beam down the center of the basement. Once the supplemental beam was installed, the crew shifted their focus to installing 10 SmartJacks along the supplemental beam. As soon as all the SmartJacks were installed, Roel and his crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was relieved to know their basement was properly supported. American Waterworks is happy to provide its homeowners peace of mind knowing their basement is secured. 

Susan was looking to purchase a home in Gackle, ND. However, the house sale was contingent upon the foundation being addressed. While the project was more work than Susan anticipated for the sale, our team was able to work with her and her realtor to find a solution that worked well for her and the home. 

First, our Design Specialist, Kole, went to the home to address the situation with a complete walkthrough. Once complete, he went over the plan with the client; she agreed and set a time for our crew to get to work.

Our Foreman, and crew began the project by breaking out a big hole in the concrete floor. In the hole, our team installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System with three levels of protection to solve all water problems a the homeowner may experience. Along with the TripleSafe Sump Pump is a battery backup that helps in cases where power is lost in a home the battery will keep the pumps draining any excess water build-up. Our team covered the small, open gaps with river rock to complete the installation and applied new concrete. To direct water away from the home's foundation so that it would not leak back into the basement, the team added a standard discharge line from the South end of the basement. Furthermore, American Waterworks can help prevent wintertime freeze-up of discharge lines. We installed the patented IceGuard® system, an anti-freeze fitting that is installed outside of the home and ejects water away from the foundation if the sump pump discharge lines freeze or become clogged.

Next, our team addressed the foundational issues by strategically placing PowerBraces around the basement, inserting 11, 9' PowerBraces to stabilize the wall further. The PowerBrace system is an I-shaped beam that stabilizes and helps straighten the bow of the wall over time. The PowerBrace system is drilled into the support beams of the home and the concrete on which the home lies. The PowerBrace™ can be installed with no disruption to outside soils or landscaping. This foundation wall system installs quickly in your home, immediately and permanently halting the inward movement of your foundation walls. The team also worked to install 7 of our GeoLock anchors throughout the basement. GeoLock Wall Anchors permanently stabilize foundation walls by anchoring them to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond the foundation.
