Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A cracking, bowing, tilting, or buckling foundation wall can mean serious trouble for not only your foundation, but for your entire home. To save their foundation wall, this Grand Rapids, MI family gave us a call. Upon a professional inspection, one of our specialists recommended our patented PowerBrace foundation wall repair system. PowerBrace uses steel I-beams that secure to the joists above the wall, offering a great amount of support for foundation walls, and may have the power to bring back the walls to their original position. This family no longer has to worry about their safety in their home with PowerBrace.

This Grand Rapids home had a foundation wall that was cracked and bowing. They were nervous about the home and wanted a solution that would stabilize the wall permanently. We used the GeoLock Wall Anchors which are made of steel and provide a long-lasting solution to prevent further movement in the wall. They won't take up space in the basement and the installation won't disrupt the lawn.

Marcy was sick of the foundation crack that was causing her all sorts of trouble like water leaks. She made the right call talking to Ayers and getting an appointment set up. After an inspection we went forward with installing CarbonArmor and our CleanSpace Wall System to address these issues. First with Carbon Armor these carbon fiber straps will fix the bowing wall by preventing further inward movement. Then with the CleanSpace Wall System this will cover these foundation walls and act as a vapor barrier to combat excess vapor or moisture with its poly sheet material. 

Marcy was happy to get these serious issues resolved before they jeopardized the safety of her home!

Steve’s front porch was cracking and settling, raising concerns about safety and stability. He wanted a permanent fix without the cost of a full replacement, so he called Ayers for an expert solution. Our team installed helical piers beneath the slab, anchoring it to stable soil for lasting support. Now, Steve’s porch is level, secure, and built to stand the test of time—without breaking the bank!

Ellen's basement walls were cracking, and she worried if they were left untreated, those cracks would continue to grow. She needed help, so she researched and called Ayers to learn about our solutions. A team of experts visited her property to evaluate and recommend a solution. They suggested GeoLock wall anchors, anchored to the failing wall and connected to a ground anchor by a steel rod. The ground anchor is placed away from the home in solid, undisturbed soil to secure the connection. Ellen feels more comfortable in her house!
