Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

John owned a 1960's home in St Joseph that was a bilevel on a hill. The exposed foundation of the home had an extensive network of stair step cracking that the owner wanted stabilized so he could begin construction for a second level. We used Push Piers because they are the best option for unknown soil conditions and reaches the greatest depth to support the foundation. The installation is fast, effective, and the soil is back filled afterwards. The piers not only stabilize the home but can lift the foundation back to the correct level.

Jan was dealing with weak foundation support so she decided to make the call to Ayers for professional help. After sending a crew out to her home for a free inspection it was settled that she could use SmartJacks. These will provide the perfect fix as they are steel columns placed on a solid foundation base that carries the weight of the home along with a steel supplemental beam that is attached above the columns for extra support. This will raise the home back to its original position. 

Jan was relieved after receiving this much needed foundation support as she no longer has to worry about the safety of her home!

Kathy was looking to sell her home but had some stair step cracks and a bowing wall in the basement. She wanted it fixed so she could put the home on the market. We installed GeoLock Wall Anchors to halt further movement in the walls. These wall anchors work extending from your wall to the hard packed soil beyond your home. They anchor into these stronger, stable soils and brace the foundation wall. This system is installed with minimal disruption to your lawn, and they won't damage the interior of your basement or take up usable space.

Cheryl had a bowing wall in her block foundation. So she called our team and we installed CarbonArmor in her basement. CarbonArmor is a wall reinforcing system constructed to repair damaged and bowing foundation walls. By preventing the inward movement and reducing the cracks in your walls, CarbonArmor is able to prevent Cheryl’s wall from continuing to bow. This system can easily be concealed for your basement to have a sleek, finished look.

A wall was cracking and bowing inwards in David and Mabel’s basement. Also, the floor near the bowing wall had sunk about 4 inches. So our team installed PowerBrace, a foundation repair system created to secure 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.
