Foundation Repair in Rochester, IN: Patti & Robert’s Story
Patti and Robert had long used their home in Rochester, Indiana, as a summer retreat. But when they sold their full-time residence, they knew their Northern Indiana property needed to become a long-term haven. The issue? A cracked and settling crawl space foundation. The cinder block wall had a large crack running along the mortar line, and multiple blocks were visibly pushed out. Wanting a permanent fix before the damage worsened, they called Ayers for a free foundation inspection in Rochester, IN. Our team diagnosed settlement across both the crawl space and an adjacent slab addition. We used a combination of trusted foundation repair products to stabilize their home.

Foundation Repair Products Installed:
Helical Piers: Ideal for lighter structures like crawl spaces, these screw-like anchors provide lasting support.
Push Piers: Driven into load-bearing soil to lift and stabilize sinking foundations.
SmartJack® System: Adjustable steel posts that restore support to sagging floors above crawl spaces.

Now, Patti and Robert can enjoy their newly permanent home with confidence, knowing their Rochester foundation repair was built to last.

Egress Window & Basement Waterproofing in Goshen, IN: Rene & Mafra’s Story
Homeowners Rene and Mafra had lived with a leaking egress window for years. Installed nearly 30 years ago, the old wooden window well had begun to rot and collect water, especially during heavy rainstorms. Despite several DIY attempts to reseal it, water continued to seep in, damaging the drywall and creating a musty smell in their finished basement. They contacted Ayers for a professional basement waterproofing inspection in Goshen, Indiana. We found that groundwater was entering below the window and seeping down the walls. To resolve the issue and protect the space long-term, we installed a complete waterproofing system:

Egress & Waterproofing Products Installed:
RockWell™ Egress Window Well: Durable, modern window well with built-in steps for safe exits.
WellDuct® Window Drain: Channels incoming water from the window directly into the drainage system.
WaterGuard® Interior Drainage System: A perimeter drain installed below the floor to capture groundwater.
SuperSump® Plus System: A high-performance sump pump with an airtight lid and alarm.
CleanSpace® Wall Liner: A vapor barrier installed under the window to prevent humidity and moisture intrusion.
IceGuard® Discharge Line Protection: Prevents sump backups during freezing Indiana winters.

Now their Goshen basement is waterproofed and safe, giving them peace of mind for years to come.
