Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Hampton, MN, noticed the wood on the ceiling of their basement was rotting. Concerned by this discovery, the homeowner wanted to have a professional inspect the status of the basement. The homeowner was searching for a professional to complete the inspection and came across us, American Waterworks. After going onto our website and signing up for their FREE estimate, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Mac. Once he arrived, Mac began evaluating the basement. Mac determined that the home's main level floors needed to be stabilized and came up with a recommended solution for the homeowners. After hearing multiple versions of the solution, the homeowners picked the best fit for their home. Next, the plans were sent to the assigned crew. Our Foreman, Victor, and his crew arrived at the home to begin production. The crew started by installing a main wood 6x6 beam across the center of the basement, to replace the rotting wood on the basement ceiling. Once the crew replaced the main beam, they placed five SmartJacks into the correct position. The SmartJacks reinforcement system provides solid support for sagging and undersized beams. After the crew successfully installed the SmartJacks, they cleaned up their site and moved on to their next project. The homeowners were happy to know their floors were professionally stabilized. American Waterworks is happy to help our customers make their homes more safe. 

Lisa G. of Hampton, MN had bowed foundation walls in her basement, causing her to worry about the structural build of her home. Our Service Technician, Mitchell Sobotta, was at her home for an annual maintenance and talked to her about our PowerBrace Wall Repair System for her foundation problems. She felt confident in the product and what it could do for her home, so she went ahead and scheduled an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Spencer Garland, and his production team installed eight of our PowerBraces, which are steel beams that are made to keep bowing walls at bay. The PowerBrace System is designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. Along with that, PowerBraces include a zinc-coating that protects it from corrosion. Lisa was happy with the repairs and was grateful she did not have to worry about further foundation failure.

Katie L. of Inver Grove Heights, MN had a bowing foundation wall, and she wanted to get it straightened out back to normal. She got in touch with American Waterworks and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Chad. Chad inspected Katie's bowing wall and proposed our wall anchor system for the solution. Katie got all of her questions answered, so she moved forward with the project. 

Our Foreman, Dylon V., and his crew installed six of our wall anchors to stabilize and straighten the foundation wall. The nice thing about this system is it can be tightened with a torque wrench over time by the homeowner to ensure it's sticking to its design. Katie said our crew did a very good job, the communication was great, and she was overall thrilled with the entire project. 

Terry H. of Merrifield, MN was having sagging floors problems that were sloping into their crawl space. They wanted someone to come out and give them an estimate on the repairs. Our Design Specialist, Richie, went to Terry's home and proposed our Crawl Space Support Posts, which are designed to restore the stability and straightness to sagging floor joists in a crawl space. Terry was confident in the product, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Cameron, and his production team installed nine of our support posts throughout their crawl space, correcting the sloping and overly springy floors. The project took two days and Terry was happy with the experience that they had!
