Before & After Photos

Leslie worried the cracks in her foundation walls would grow and deepen in the future. She didn't want structural damage to her home, so she researched and called Ayers for help. We sent a team of experts to her house, and they installed the PowerBrace repair system to secure the wall and prevent further damage. The PowerBrace system connects steel beams to joists above the wall with steel brackets. Once everything is in place and tightened, the wall will be stabilized to the desired position. Leslie is relieved her wall is supported now!

A company's sidewalk was unenven and craking in front of their building. So they called our team and we installed PolyLevel, a system that fixes settlement issues in concrete slabs. A polyurethane foam that expands and has a high density is used in order to raise the concrete. The process is quite simple and is done by drilling small holes into the concrete and then inserting the foam into the holes. Also, the PolyLevel system is waterproof and long-lasting. 

The Cunninghams inherited a beautiful home from one of their parents and had to find a team they knew would not ruin a sentimental home while preserving it for the future market. Looking to renovate, Mr. Cunningham found approximately 1.5 inches in drift on the east wall and an inch on the southern in his basement, as confirmed by our foreman Jeff. The job required stabilization work as well as requested cosmetic changes like flooring and window placement.

The project required wall excavation as well as structural reinforcement, and a permanent solution for the movement of the wall. PowerBrace rods line one wall and the other is fitted with Geo-Lock Anchors and finished with Joist reinforcements. The PowerBrace anchors to the floor through a cement block in the ground and ceiling along the wall, constantly applying support to the basement where needed. a Geo-Lock system, one of the most permanent solutions offered, is based underground on the outside of the wall and the opposite side is a plate bolted and sealed into place.

After the wall work was completed, the rim joist was reinforced and a new Egress window was installed as well as new wood flooring.

Henry and Susan's home began presenting structural problems as the floor became un-level. Understanding the home's structural integrity may be at risk, the couple decided to call Ayers to have it looked at. After making an appointment, a System Design Specialist at Ayers went to their home for a thorough assessment. The team at Ayers decided that Helical Piers would be perfect for Henry's and Susan's home. Helical Piers are steel piers that are screwed into the ground. The lower section of the pier has blades that act as a screw when going into the ground. Once the pier is screwed down to the desired height, and into load-bearing soil, the pier is attached to the homes footing with steel foundation brackets. Helical Piers can permanently stabilize a home and bring it back to level in Henry's and Susan's case!

Dennis called Ayers about solutions to his foundation support troubles he was having. We had a crew come out to his home to inspect these problems and from there we concluded SmartJacks would provide the perfect fix. With SmartJacks, these supplemental support systems address sagging or rotting support beams. These are made up of steel columns, threaded rods, and a solid base. The posts get adjusted to raise the floors to a level position.

Dennis was relieved to get the professional help he desperately needed to ensure the safety of his home!
