Before & After Photos

This Schoolcraft home had cracked and bowed walls in the basement. The owner wanted a solution that would stop the wall from moving and keep the home standing. We used CarbonArmor to stabilize the basement walls which installs quickly and will not take up any usable space or impact future basement finishings.

Paul worried his foundation walls would cave in if the cracks continued to grow and deepen. He didn't want the issue to worsen, so he researched his options and called Ayers for assistance. Our trained professionals visited his home and installed the PowerBrace repair system to stabilize the wall and prevent caving. The PowerBrace system connects steel beams to joists above the wall with steel brackets. Afterwards, everything is tightened into place and the wall is secure once again. Paul loves how fast the project was completed!

This home in Portage, MI had some stair-step cracks in the foundation wall. Most of the time this happens from the soil outside your foundation walls expanding. This home had a special case where a tree root was actually causing the wall to bow inward and create the cracks they were seeing inside their home. 

To take care of the cracks we installed our PowerBrace system. PowerBraces can be tightened to allow for improvement of the wall over time. They are also zinc coated so you don't have to worry about them rusting out. These are also a good option if you don't have room for excavation on the outside of your home.

We were called when the customers noticed they had two bowing walls in the basment that were causing leaks as well as cracking outside the house. They were planning on selling the home so they needed to walls fixed before they could do that.

We installed GeoLock Anchors to halt the movemnt of the wall. GeoLock Anchors are made of steel and are suspended into hard, stable soil. They anchor into the stronger soil to brace the foundation wall and keep any further movment from happening. The installation causes very minimal disturbance to your yard and they dont take up usable space in your basement!

Our team installed PowerBrace in a customer's home because his basement walls were bowed. Knowing this would continue to affect the foundation of his home he called our team. PowerBrace is a foundation repair system that secures basement walls in place. Often outside pressures can cause your basement walls to crack or tilt, this foundation repair system counteracts these pressures by keeping your basement walls in place. Over time, the system can be tightened to not only secure the walls in place, but to also straighten them.
