Local Foundation Experts Who Know Wisconsin Soil
For 80 years, American Foundation Specialists has repaired cracked, bowing, settling and leaking basements across Southeast Wisconsin. From our office in Hales Corners, our crews work every day in Milwaukee, Waukesha, Racine and Kenosha counties.
Every community here shares the same challenges: heavy clay soil that holds water and pushes against basement walls, freeze-thaw cycles that widen cracks every winter, and storms like the record August 2025 flooding that overwhelm old drain tile. Older Milwaukee homes often have block or stone foundations nearing the end of their life. Newer homes in Waukesha County can still settle or leak. We know what to look for in each.
