Before & After Photos

In Mauston, WI, a homeowner noticed stair step cracking on the foundation of their garage and was concerned for its stability. Knowing the issue would only worsen without a long-term solution, the homeowner began looking into unstable foundation repair and found us. Impressed by our 5-star reviews, the homeowner contacted us to schedule their FREE estimate.

In about a week, our Design Specialist, Chuck H., arrived at the home for a thorough inspection. During the inspection, he took a close look at the foundation, taking note of where cracks could be seen and determining which walls needed to be stabilized. After reporting his findings to the homeowner, Chuck began working on a detailed solution that was within their budget to repair the foundation. He recommended installing GeoLock, our wall anchor system that redirects pressure against the foundation to stable soil. Happy to have a permanent solution that comes with a lifetime warranty, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Kiko P., and his crew arrived at the home to install 9 GeoLock wall anchors to secure the foundation. Once these were successfully installed, the crew cleaned up their equipment and left the home. Now, our customer can have peace of mind! Looking for foundation solutions?

A homeowner in Lester Prairie, MN, noticed their wall was beginning to crack. Knowing this was not a good sign, the homeowner decided to look into foundation repair options. The homeowner took to Google and searched "foundation repair near me". American Waterworks was positioned near the top of that list, so they decided to look into our service. After seeing our impressive list of services, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Soon after the appointment was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of Eric, one of our Design Specialists. Eric arrived at the home and began by completing the inspection of the basement. Following his detailed inspection, Eric determined that the southwest wall required permanent stabilization. Eric recommended that PowerBraces be installed in the home to provide further support. The homeowner knew that this would provide a long-term fix, so they went along with Eric's plan. Once they got the stamp of approval, the plans were sent to our Foreman, Chris, and his crew. They arrived and began by making sure the space was ready for production. The crew installed four PowerBraces along the southwest basement wall. After the PowerBraces were properly secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed by the work completed by the crew and left a glowing review. American Waterworks is happy to make another home safe. 

A customer from Rushmore, MN, contacted us when they suspected they might have a Radon gas present in their home. Our crew went out to the property and the Design Specialist, Kevin, recommended that the customer invests in a Radon mitigation system because of the high levels of Radon he found to be prevalent in the home. Our Foreman, Dakota, worked to install the system and will follow up with the customer if further issues present themselves. Our Radon mitigation systems work to suck the Radon out of the area, pipe it upwards, and expel the gas out and away from the home. 

Dan R. in Ivanhoe, MN had learned about the dangers of radon gas and decided that he needed to get his home tested. The test results showed a high level of radon. Our Design Specialist walked him through the radon mitigation installation process and answered his questions. Dan wanted to act quickly and moved forward with an installation date.

During the installation process, our Foreman, Dakota Merchlewitz, drilled a hole through the floor in the basement to insert a PVC pipe and create a suction point for the radon gas. Then the gas is vented through the pipe and out of the home. Dan is relieved that he took the necessary steps to make sure his family's health is no longer compromised.

A couple from Valley City, ND got in contact with us when they decided they wanted to get their house tested for Radon gas. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that has become the second leading cause of lung cancer, second only to cigarette smoke. The couple knew that testing for the dangerous gas was incredibly important. When they called in, we set them up with our FREE estimate, entitling them to a thorough inspection of the issue by one of our Design Specialists. Once the appointment had been set, our Design Specialist from our Fargo branch, Kole, headed out to the property. When he arrived, he informed the homeowners that he would be leaving a charcoal test behind for 48 hours. He went on to say that the test would sit in the home and at the end of the 48 hours, would be able to tell the levels of Radon in the home. Once the 48 hours was up, the couple sent their test out, and it came back measuring 7.9 pCi/L. Kole informed the couple that the World Health Organization recommends taking action to fight Radon at a 2.7 as 1pCi/L of Radon is equal to 2.5 cigarettes smoked a day. Kole recommended that the couple looks into installing a Radon Mitigation System in the home. He explained that this system works to pull Radon from the home and then pipe it up and outwards from the home. The couple quickly agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Fargo-based Foreman, CJ, and his crew worked quickly and efficiently to install the new system in the home. Once work was complete, the couple was relieved to know that their Radon issue had been addressed and dealt with.
