Photo Album: A Trusted Way to Fix Cracks in Kalamazoo, MI

Denise found severe cracks on his foundational walls. Waiting to remain cautious, he contacted Ayers to inspect his home. Our resident foreman Blade was able to inspect the area and draft a treatment plan. Blade prescribed CarbonArmor to correct the foundational walls, PowerBrace Piers to restabilize the home, and WaterGuard drainage system to control any adverse flooding.

PowerBrace

PowerBrace is a foundation repair system created to secure basement walls in place. Outside pressures can cause your basement walls to crack or tilt, but this foundation repair system counteracts these pressures by keeping the basement walls in place. Over time, the system can be tightened to not only secure the walls in place, but to also straighten them.

CarbonArmor

CarbonArmor permanently stabilizes foundational walls. Using a fiber-reinforcement polymer, which is as strong as steel yet 10 times more flexible, the strips adhere to the wall and stiffen over time. CarbonArmor works best when the problem is caught early, and sadly does not seal away water.

WaterGuard

WaterGuard is a system of draining channels that are connected to the home's sump pump. The channels are installed under the foundational floor and covered with poured concrete, making it invisible to the naked eye. The channels lead to an outlet pipe that takes the water far away from the home's foundation, depositing the water in a safe location.
