The homeowner looked into "cracked wall repair near Clear Lake, IA" and the homeowner's eye was caught by our high ratings and reviews. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate. As soon as the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Ryan, to begin his thorough investigation. Ryan took a close look at the wall and noticed the walls were beginning to bow inward. To stop the bowing from continuing, Ryan recommended installing 11 GeoLock Wall Anchors throughout the walls. The homeowner knew this was their best option, so they decided to go ahead with the recommendations. Next, Ryan passed the proposal off to our Logisitcs team to build and schedule the project. Our Logistics team finalized the plans, and then it was passed along to our Foreman, Matt, and his crew to begin. Matt and his crew traveled to Clear Lake and began the GeoLock installation. The crew installed all 11 GeoLocks on the cracked and bowing foundation. Once all the GeoLock Wall Anchors were secured, Matt and his crew were able to clean up their materials and leave the home. The homeowner was impressed with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to assist its homeowners in permanently stabilizing their foundations.
