Foundation Support for Prudenville, MI Home

Gerald and Nancy’s home was built in 1980, and they have been living in it since 1989. Over the years, the foundation has shifted slightly, but it wasn’t anything major. Recently, Gerald noticed huge stair step cracks in the foundation of the home. The cracks haven’t let any water inside, but it has caused the front corner of the house to sink. The couple called Ayers Basement Systems for an inspection. Our crew determined they would need Push Piers to every distribute the weight of the home to correct and prevent foundation shifting. 

Push Piers are round steel tubes that help carry the load of homes that are sinking or settling. It has a bracket that is secured to the outside footing of the foundation and is driven into the soil below. The weight of the home is transferred from the unstable soil causing settlement to the steel pier.  

Gerald and Nancy were delighted with the work completed by the Ayers crew. They were pleased with every step of the process from the first call to the final cleanup. They’ve lived in their house for years and can now remain there safely without fear of the house crumbling down around them.
