Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner called us because their backyard sloped towards the house and was pushing against the walls. The pressure was causing horizontal and vertical cracks in their house. We installed GeoLock Anchors to the home to stabilize the walls. The GeoLock Anchors include steel rods that extend from the house into hard stable soil to prevent further movement. They cause minimal disruption to the lawn and don't take up space in your basement. This system is a long lasting solution to bowing or buckling walls!

A homeowners garage wall was being pushed inwards causing cracks with one crack being 1/8 of an inch deep. We installed the PowerBrace Foundation Wall Repair System to stop further movement. This system is made up of steel beams that are secured to joists above the wall with steel brakets. The beams stop damage from occuring and can potentially straighten the wall. Thei nstallation is quick and has very minimal disruption to your garage space.

This Grand Ledge home was up forsale but there was a bowing wall in the basement. The prospective buyers wanted it to be fixed so they called us to see what we could do to save the wall. We installed GeoLock Wall Anchors for them to halt further movement of the wall. These wall anchors are made of galvanized steel and work by extending from your wall into the hard, stable soil beyond your home. They brace the stronger soil to stabilize the foundation wall. 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.

Mike and Valerie wanted to sell their home near Lake Huron but worried that sagging, creaky floors would turn buyers away. After receiving costly repair quotes elsewhere, they called Ayers for an affordable solution. Our team installed SmartJack® crawl space support posts and a new supplemental beam to lift and reinforce the floor above—restoring stability without breaking the bank. Now, their home is market-ready, and they can sell with confidence.

The back wall of this Laingsburg, MI garage was starting to crumble. Resting on a hill, this rental property had several horizontal and vertical cracks running through it caused by expanding soil putting pressure on the walls. When walls begin to push inward due to lateral pressure, they’re referred to as bowing.

The steel beams in the after photo are a part of the PowerBrace Wall Repair System. By attaching the beams to the ceiling with a bolt attachment and bracketing them to the floor, the beams are able to push back against the wall and straighten it to its original position. Once installed, the beams can be tightened at a later date to continue to improve wall conditions. Now, any pressure put on the walls will no longer threaten the foundation.
