Ayers Basement Systems Before & After

The Power of Foundation Support Brought A Decatur, MI Home Back to Stabilization
Homeowners in Decatur, MI were concerned about potential tree instruction in their basement, causing the bowing of their block foundation's walls. Motar had stretched apart into significant gaps, walls were bowing in about 2-3 inches, and the cracks were holding together with a DIY fix. After a free estimate inspection, it was evident that the homeowners needed to repair their home. Our specialist provided a few solutions, and they agreed on the installation of Everbrace, PowerBrace and CarbonArmor not only to halt further damage but to promise reinforcement for years to come.

CarbonArmor Addresses Cracked Foundation Wall in Blissfield, MI Home
Ronald was searching for a solution to address his cracked foundation wall in the basement. He chose Ayers as the foundation repair experts, so we sent a crew to inspect his home. From the inspection, our System Design Specialists were able to recommend CarbonArmor. This repair system consists of reinforcing straps made from a fiber-reinforced polymer ten times stronger than steel. The straps are attached to the wall with a special epoxy resin and secured to the joists above with steel brackets. With this system, the wall will become stable and secure which will prevent future bowing. Ronald was grateful for this quick, trustworthy solution that will keep his foundation walls in place!

Camden, MI Bowed Walls Secured with PowerBrace System
It’s clear to see in the first image that something’s just not right with these walls...they’re bowing! Bowed walls are often the result of hydrostatic pressure. As water saturates the backfill soil surrounding the foundation, the water exerts pressure on the foundation walls. Installing the PowerBrace system in this home was the best solution for combating the hydrostatic pressure and straightening these walls over time. 12 corrosion-resistant, zinc beams were carefully reinforced to the floor joists to distribute the load evenly preventing damage to the floor system above it. These beams can be tightened over time to continue to stabilize the walls, putting them back in their place.
