Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This Fowler homeowner has a bowing wall in his finished basement. We wanted to fix the wall and give him peace of mind so we installed GeoLock Wall Anchors. The anchor system works by extending from the wall into the hard stable soil outside the home to brace the foundation wall. The GeoLock anchors are installed with minimal disturbance to the lawn, they won't damage the basement, and it doesn't take up usable space.

When walls are starting to have settlement problems, they start to move.  This can be very catastrophic if left untouched.  Our customer chose to do some preventative maintenance by adding some support to each wall.  Using CarbonArmor, we are able to help stabilize bowing walls.  On top of the walls, we connect the CarbonArmor to ArmorLock straps that provide supplemental support to existing top wall connections, preventing the walls from leaning.  This helps to keep all of the applied walls nice and stable!  

We quickly inspected Marilyn's failing support beams in her crawl space, which desperately required a permanent solution. The wooden beams split due to rotting, so our Ayers team suggested SmartJacks. These jacks consist of galvanized steel for corrosion resistance. We attached them to a supplemental support beam above and rested the jacks on a sturdy base within the floor. SmartJacks can support loads of more than 60,000 pounds. Marilyn now feels assured of the safety of her crawl space support system!

Cheryl was sick of the sagging floor in her family room. The room became unusable, so she knew she needed to ask Ayers for help. We sent a team of experts to examine the issue and recommend a solution. Due to the sturdy base and adjustable feature provided by SmartJacks, they decided this was the best solution. SmartJacks are a system of floor jacks hot-dipped in galvanized steel, zinc-plated, and reinforced to bear large loads. Cheryl is so happy to enjoy her space with the whole family!

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.
