If you need help lifting your home to its original position, push piers are the right products for you. These piers are mechanically advanced into the soil using small construction equipment. As they are installed, they prevent any future settlement issues. 

Eric M. of Park Rapids, MN took his entire boathouse down because his foundation was settling. He wanted to build another one but needed to make sure it had a structural base to build. Our Design Specialist, Rick Weber, worked with him and told him about our helical piers. Eric decided to move forward with Rick's proposal and build his boathouse on top of the pier brackets once installed. 

Our Foreman, Matt Zeller, and his crew installed 11 of our Helical Pier Porch Brackets in Eric's desired location. He was very happy with the work and is looking forward to beginning building his boathouse. Overall, rather than replacing an entire house or building, our helical piers are made specifically for home and settlement repairs.

Joe and Christina M. of Park Rapids, MN had water leaking through the foundation walls of their basement, making them feel nervous about flooding, water moisture, and health problems. They saw American Waterworks online so they called our office staff and scheduled a FREE Estimate with our Design Specialist, Chad Johnson. Chad went to their home to carefully inspect their problems and come up with a solution. Joe and Christina were confident in Chad's proposal and were happy with our products and their warranties, so they went ahead with the project and scheduled an installation date. 

Our Foreman, Corey Tollefson, and his production team began the project by breaking out the concrete perimeter, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System, which serves as an underground drain that connects to the sump pump. Our WaterGuard is one of the most common waterproofing products because of its easy-to-access service ports, its resistance to clogs, and its ability to collect water seepage from basement walls. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier System, which is similar to an extra wall protectant. Our CleanSpace is pliable enough to cover uneven surfaces and irregular walls, including areas with divots or rock. It also prevents any mold and humidity and provides the basement with a neat and clean appearance. Joe and Christina were amazed by the transformation, and had a great experience from start to finish!

Homeowners in Park Rapids, MN had water leaking into their unfinished basement. They were unable to go about their renovations with this problem. They got in contact with our office line and scheduled a FREE Estimate with one of our Design Specialists. He went to their home, inspected their basement, and drew out a solution. The homeowners were confident in our proposal of our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain and CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier, so they signed our contract. 

Our Foreman, Corey, and his production team broke out the concrete floor perimeter with a jackhammer, forming a trench. In the trench, our team installed our WaterGuard Below-Floor Drain. Our WaterGuard is the most popular interior drainage system because of its easily accessible service ports, its ability to collect water seepage from basement walls, and its prevention from water clogs. Next, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier. Our CleanSpace is designed to prevent mold and humidity from invading the basement, saves money on energy costs, and gives the basement a warm and bright appearance. To complete the installation, Corey and his crew filled the floor gaps with river rock and applied a new layer of concrete. The homeowners were satisfied and could not believe the transformation!

Job Stories From Park Rapids, MN
PowerBraces Saves Foundation Wall in Park Rapids, MN

A homeowner in Park Rapids, MN, noticed their walls began bowing inwards in their basement. Anxious this could cause major structural issues, the homeowners wanted to have an expert come to their home to investigate. In the past, the homeowners have heard about the great jobs that we completed and were convinced to give us a shot. The homeowners went to our website and signed up for their FREE estimate. After the appointment was set, the homeowners prepared for the arrival of one of our Design Specialists. Once they arrived, the Design Specialist completed a full inspection of the foundation. The Design Specialist determined that the foundation was beginning to fail due to hydrostatic pressure. Since they knew the cause, the Design Specialist recommended that the walls be permanently stabilized. The homeowner agreed with the Design Specialists suggestions and production commenced. Our Foreman, Franklin, and his crew set out to complete the job. When they arrived, the crew started by excavating the deteriorating wall. Once that wall was taken out of the way, they were able to begin the PowerBrace installation. PowerBraces is a patented foundation wall repair system that is designed to stabilize failing basement walls and has the potential to straighten over time. To install the PowerBraces, the crew begins by cutting the wall braces. Next, the PowerBraces are secured into the floor joist hardware and fine-tuned into the correct position. The, the PowerBraces are attached to the floor with a special, bolt-in-place bracket. After the PowerBraces are put in their proper place, the crew shifts their focus to installing the SentrySeal Waterproof Seal onto the outside of the foundation. After the SentrySeal was secured into place, the crew's job was finished, and they were able to clean up. The homeowners were grateful that their foundation walls were permanently stabilized.

Helical Piers in Park Rapids, MN

After a home is constructed, changes in the surrounding soil are the primary cause of foundation settlement. Extreme moisture changes, such as drought or over saturation, along with poorly compacted fill soils, create soil movement. That movement shifts and settles your home, causing cracked walls, uneven floors, and a sinking settlement. 

Helical piers are designed to transfer the weight of a home or property to load-bearing soil or bedrock, permanently stabilizing the home's foundation. Instead of being driven into the soil by the weight of the home itself, helical piers are screwed into the soil using a piece of mechanical equipment. This makes them ideal for lighter structures and new construction. In many cases, helical piers can lift a sunken foundation back to its original position. 

A homeowner in Park Rapids had helical piers installed by us before building their boathouse because of the soil features. This allows for the boathouse to be built on a structural base that will prevent any foundation settlement or shrinkage.
