Before & After Photos

Russel tried DIY projects to raise his slanted kitchen floor, but nothing seemed to fix the issue. He was frustrated, so he researched his options online and gave Ayers a call. Our team of experts dropped by his house to evaluate the situation and recommended the installation of the SmartJacks supplement support system. SmartJacks are superior floor jacks, zinc plated, and hot-dipped in galvanized steel to insure durability. To reduce load-bearing stress on each SmartJack, the base is implanted two feet below the surface. Russel can't believe how balanced his kitchen floor is!

Half of this home rested on a slab, while the other half was over a crawl space. The side over the crawl space was starting to sink, with floors sagging and support beams not so supportive.

We used SmartJacks and steel beams to stabilize and support the sinking floors, making the home safe and secure. (Note that the after photo is from a closer distance and in different light.)

Our friends David & Dorothy from Roscommon, MI were battling issues with a wall in their cottage’s basement bowing inward. Near the top of the wall a hairline crack began to form. David & Dorothy became frightened for the future of their wall and called us in search of a permanent and professional solution. We were quick to aid them and devised a tactical solution consisting of six PowerBraces. The PowerBrace system encompasses adjustable steel I-beams that secure to the joists above the foundation wall, offering revolutionary support. The PowerBrace improves the condition of bowing and cracked walls by reversing the forces of nature and allowing them to move back to their original position. Thanks to the solution devised by our team, David & Dorothy’s wall will begin to return to its original position.

Our customer bought her home in 2016. An addition was built in 2009, that later became the kitchen. The floorboards were starting to pull apart and sag. This was causing damage to the integrity of the foundation as well as being a potential safety hazard. The customer called Ayers for an inspection and our crew determined that she would need SmartJacks installed in her crawl space to better stabilize the home. 

SmartJacks are steel supports that balance the foundation of the crawl space, lifting it to its original position. They are anchored into the ground with poured concrete and can be adjust so the home will never shift out of place. After the install, our crew was able to achieve a little more than an inch of lift. Techs will return in about a year from now to tighten the SmartJacks to get more lift out of them. 

The customer was at home during the installation and was more than satisfied with the work done. She was relieved that she no longer had to worry about falling through her floors. 

Jesse set his water bottle down, and it rolled to the far side of the room. It had never been this obvious that his living room floor was slanted, so he researched and called Ayers for help. Our crew of experts stopped by his house and evaluated the situation. They recommended installing SmartJacks, a supplemental support system of top-grade floor jacks. Compared to store-bought floor jacks, SmartJacks are zinc-plated, hot dipped in galvanized steel, and placed two feet below the surface to limit load-bearing stress. Jesse loves his level floor!
