A homeowner in Avon, MN was concerned about the structural integrity of his home when he noticed his main floors were slightly sagging. He knew this couldn't be a good sign and wanted to learn what the root of the problem was right away. He went online to look for companies in the area that offered foundation repair services and found the American Waterworks company. He knew it was the best choice for him when he discovered we offer FREE no-obligation estimates and signed up for one. We sent over Design Specialist Shane Nephew to properly inspect the crawl space and prepare his recommendations for the space. Shane assured the homeowner that something could be done to save the floors and prevent them from sagging further. The homeowner agreed to the plans and was later greeted by one of our Foremen, Jeremiah Fischer, and his crew. They installed our SmartJacks, high-capacity adjustable steel piers designed to stop settling and even raise the floors back up to where they were. The homeowner was relieved to know the problem was fixed and thanked the crew for their hard work.

Marilyn G. of Chaska, MN had sagging floors, causing her to worry about the structural stability of her home. She got in contact with American Waterworks, scheduled a FREE estimate, and had our Design Specialist out to her house to diagnose the issue. After a clear examination, our Design Specialist proposed our SmartJacks, which are steel beam support posts that lift and support sagging floor joists. Marilyn was confident in the system, so she went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman and his crew installed our SmartJacks to provide a solid support for our sagging and undersized beams. The purpose of this system is to restore the stability and straightness of the sagging floor joists. After completion, our Foreman and his crew provided Marilyn with a thorough walkthrough of the project and ensured she was happy with the project.

The representatives at Stadheim Properties in Owatonna, MN contacted American Waterworks after being referred by another contractor. The building had two foundation walls that were cracked and bowing. They were remodeling the building at the time and wanted an estimate and the work done as soon as possible. We sent one of our Design Specialists, Ryan Powell, to meet with the representatives, evaluate the situation, and propose a solution for the building. Ryan recommended our Geo-Lock Channel Anchors to permanently stabilize the walls. 

Our Foreman, Matt Zeller, and his production crew got to work installing the 26 Geo-Lock Channel Anchors. They began the project by excavating the soil outside of the building and drilling small holes through the foundation wall that correspond to each anchor location. The steel anchor rods were driven through the holes, extending all the way to the earth anchor holes where an anchor plate was securely attached. After fastening the earth anchor outside, the crew mounted the steel channel anchors to the foundation wall on the inside and secured the channel anchors to the floor for optimal bracing and failure protection. The Geo-Lock system stops the foundation walls from moving inwards and also provides the opportunity to straighten the walls over time. The representatives at Stadheim Properties were happy with the results and glad they chose to invest in a long-term solution. 

Glenda G. of Owatonna, MN wanted to determine what was causing the cracks in her basement foundation wall. She found American Waterworks on Google, so she called the number that was available. Our office staff got her scheduled for a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Eric. Eric went to Glenda's home, inspected the wall, and proposed our Wall Anchor System for the repairs. Our Wall Anchor System is designed to stabilize foundation walls while offering the best opportunity to straighten the walls without the cost or construction of a replacement. Wall anchors are our utility foundation repair system because they can be used to stabilize walls with a variety of different problems. Our production Foreman and his crew installed the three wall anchors in one day, and Glenda was very pleased with the work that was done!
