Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

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.

Carrie had an uneven and cracked front porch. The bottom had been washed out when some pipes leak and she wanted it returned to how it originally was. We used PolyLevel which is an injectable foam to lift the concrete back up to where it should be. PolyLevel will hold the porch up because it is waterproof which means it won't wash away. It cures in about 15 minutes so it can withhold weight in a short period of time. To repair the crack we used NexusPro Crack Repair. It is a silicone-based filler that is designed to withstand harsh weather. Like the PolyLevel, its drying time is about an hour which is a fraction of the time of most fillers.

Amos' entire driveway was cracked and not level. He was nervous the cracks would get worse this winter and worried about someone tripping. He called Ayers, and after an inspection, our crew determined that PolyLevel and NexusPro would be the perfect solution for the driveway. 

The PolyLevel system is used to repair sinking concrete by drilling minuscule holes into the slab and filling them with foam. The foam raises the slab and fortifies it to make it last even longer. NexusPro is a sealant that fills the cracks in the concrete. It is extremely withstanding to harsh weather so it will remain flexible for years. 

Amos was overjoyed to be able to finally get this project out of the way. He no longer has to worry about his family and friends tripping on the way up to the house and can rest easy knowing he won't have to replace the whole driveway in a few years. 

Jacob plans on finishing his Kentwood, MI basement and wants to add another bedroom. To do so, he called Ayers for an inspection for an egress window installation. 

Egress windows from Ayers bring safety and beauty in one. Building codes require that basement living spaces must have a large enough window to safely evacuate in case of emergency. Our windows have built-in steps and durable covers that hold up to 500 pounds. Because adding an egress window requires cutting a hole in the foundation, a window installation company is not the safest option. Ayers knows foundations and knows how to install an egress window properly. 

Jason was thrilled with the installation done by the Ayers crew. He was more than satisfied with the egress window and can’t wait to finish the rest of the basement! 

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!
