Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Charles called us about his basement wall. Large horizontal cracks could be seen running from one end of the wall to another, a sure sign of a wall that was beginning to bow. If left alone, Charles' yard would eventually be relocated in his basement. Fortunately, we had a permanent fix for Charles. The answer was in a GeoLock Wall Anchor System. Large steel GeoLock earth anchors are placed in the ground away from the home and are connected to wall anchor plates on the inside along the bowing wall using long steel rods. These anchors hold the wall in place and keep it from bowing any further. Another unique feature of these wall anchors is that they have a tightening system included that allows the walls condition to improve over time. Charles will no longer have to worry about a basement full of dirt. A quick easy installation was the difference between between worry and confidence.

A customer in Saint Johns called in about a failing wall in the basement. At Ayers Basement Systems, we specialize in repairing or preventing walls from bowing in. Once our System Design Specialist took a look at the wall, it was save to assume it needed wall anchors. 

Our wall anchors are designed to repair walls like these. The galvanized steel makes for a long-lasting solution that will prevent any further inward movement of the walls. 

Note: The ground outside was filled in with dirt after the anchors were secured. 

When our customer called wishing to install a sump pump in her crawl space to escape the endless cycle of the water softener draining into the space and causing problems, we didn't know that we would come across much worse problems.

Supports such as the ones shown in the "before" picture are unreliable and can be dangerous. When coupled with a moisture problem, the crawl space can wreak havoc on the floor of the home above the crawl space.

We replaced the unstable supports with the SmartJack assembly, which provides support and reinforcement to beams and the home's floor.

Nathan has a cottage that is used during the summer. This past summer he noticed cracks around the home, his floors were not level, and there was some problems with opening doors. We used Helical Piers to stabilize and lift the foundation back to the correct level. We used SmartJacks to stabilize and level the floors. These both have year-round, quick installation so you can get a permanent solution at any time!

Lynn's crawl space support beams were deteriorating over time and shifting. She called Ayers to receive our permanent foundation repair solutions. Our foreman got to work installing SmartJacks. This crawl space support system provides solid foundation support for sagging and undersized beams. These jacks restore stability and straightness to sagging floor joists. Lynn is thrilled with the permanent crawl space stabilization!
