Using SmartJack to Stabilize Floors in Elkhart, IN

Minnie called our team because her floor was starting to sag. In order to halt her sagging floors, we installed SmartJack. Floors above crawl spaces are vulnerable due to the moisture and soils of the crawl sapce, however the SmartJack system is a permanent fix to these issues. It uses steel columns, threaded rods and a solid base to address any issues your crawl space may introduce to your floors. Installing this system usually takes less than a day and it provides immediate stabilization.

Installing Helical Piers in Bremen, IN

Cara and Lee built an inclosed sunroom a few years ago to replace their back porch. Recently, the windows and doors have been sticking, the floors have been sagging, and cracks have appeared in the walls. The different issues they were encountering are usually caused by settlement issues, so Cara and Lee called our team for help. We installed helical piers to stop the settlement and overtime bring the foundation back to its original level. The helical piers were installed deep into the soil underneath the foundation for a quick installation and permanent solution.

Stabilizing Bowing Walls in Bremen, IN Home

The cracks on the foundation walls of this Bremen, IN home were the first signs of a compromised wall structure. By the time we showed up, the walls were bowing due to soil pressure.

We immediately installed these GeoLock wall anchors to help prevent further bowing. These anchors are installed with one plate on the inside of the wall connected via a cable to another plate that is anchored in stable soil around the home. Wall anchors not only provide immediately stability to the walls, we can tighten the cable over time to straighten the walls.

Those white squares you see are covers we install over the steel anchors so they're not an eyesore. 

Lifting Slanted Floor in Three Rivers, MI, Home

Brian noticed his kitchen floor was slanted for the first time. He was worried about the damage this could cause, so he called Ayers to learn about our foundation solutions. Our professionals visited his home to evaluate and recommended installing the SmartJacks supplemental support system. SmartJacks are hot-dipped in galvanized steel and zinc plated, making them far sturdier than store-bought floor jacks. As the house moves and shifts, the jacks can be adjusted as well.  Brian loves the longevity of his new system!

Securing a Bowing Wall in Eaton Rapids MI

Matt had a bowing wall in his basement where pipes are and was worried they would bust from the pressure. We installed GeoLock Wall Anchors to halt further movement in the wall. These anchors are made of steel and work by extending from your wall to the stable, hard packed soil beyond your home. GeoLock Wall anchors are installed with minimal disruption to your lawn, and they won't damage the interior of your basement or take up usable space.
