Loeub L. in Faribault, MN came across our booth at the Faribault Home and Garden Show and spoke with one of our Design Specialists, Eric Hazelton. Loeub had some bowing basement walls and was concerned about the structural integrity of his home. He was looking for a permanent, cost effective solution with minimal disruption to his basement space or outside landscaping. Eric recommended our PowerBrace Wall Repair System. Loeub approved of the plan and move forward with the project.
Our Foreman, Jose Castillo, and his production crew installed 11 PowerBraces along the bowing foundation walls. The steel I-beams stabilize the wall in its current position, and over time, can be tightened to make the walls straighter and more vertical. The PowerBraces can be installed with no disruption to outside soil. Loeub was impressed with the quick installation, and is worry-free, knowing his basement is now permanently stabilized.

A homeowner in Faribault, MN, knew it was time to repair their very slanted foundation wall. Knowing they could not repair the issue themselves, the homeowner looked into "foundation repair experts near me". One of the first experts to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner decided to look into foundation repair experts in their area. Impressed with our previous work, the homeowner decided to go ahead and sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, we sent one of our Design Specialists, Eric, to the home to take a closer look. Eric promptly arrived at the home and started the thorough inspection. After taking a closer look, Eric noted the walls needed to be permanently stabilized with GeoLock Wall Anchors. Knowing this was the best plan of action, the homeowner agreed and worked with Eric to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Jose, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Jose and his crew prepped the wall for the installation. Then, the crew went ahead and secured four GeoLock Wall Anchors along the north wall. Once the GeoLock Wall Anchors were secured, the crew cleaned up their matierals and left the home.

Roger B. in Spring Park, MN noticed that the roof of his crawl space was sagging, and he had a crack on the exterior wall of his home where the crawl space is. He also noticed that he had a lot of moisture in his crawl space and he thought he might be losing energy through that space because he was dealing with high energy costs. He found American Waterworks and was pleased to see that we offer both waterproofing and foundation repair.
We sent one of our Design Specialists, Shane Nephew, to his home to find a solution and give him a FREE estimate. Roger was pleased with the proposal that Shane developed so he scheduled a date for the installation.
Our production crew removed the debris and installed our crawl space waterproofing system which consisted of, drainage matting along the floor, SilverGlo, CleanSpace and a Sedona dehumidifier. Then we installed 5 SmartJacks in the crawl space to support the beams of the flooring. To stabilize the home, we installed 10 push piers under the foundation.The entire process took a couple of days, but Roger and his family will benefit from this permanent solution for a lifetime. Our waterproofing and foundation repair systems are backed by a lifetime warranty, so Roger can rest easy knowing his home is protected.

We got a call from a concerned homeowner in Shakopee, MN, who was experiencing a bowing wall in her brick garage. Our Design Specialist, Chad, went out to the property to do a full inspection and ended up recommending our PowerBrace system to fix the issue. This particular system is an adjustable steel beam that stabilizes bowing walls and forces bowing or tilted wall sections back into their original position. Our Foreman, Kiko, and his team went out to the property and installed several beams along the South wall of the garage. Now we have a relieved homeowner who no longer has to worry about a faulty foundation!
