Before & After Photos

Randy had a slanted living room floor, so he tried a store-bought floor jack and exhausted his options in the "DIY" department. His previous attempts to fix the issue didn't work, so he researched his options and called Ayers for help. Our specialists visited his home and recommended installing the SmartJacks supplemental support system. SmartJacks are a collection of floor jacks, zinc plated and hot-dipped in galvanized steel to provide durability. Each base is implanted two feet deep to reduce load-bearing stress and ensure longevity. Randy is happy with his level floor!

Gary and Leslie have a poured basement, and one of their exterior retaining walls had a crack. After reading many stories about Ayers, they decided to call in. After an Ayers System Design Specialist came out to assess the problem, the crew at Ayers decided on the GeoLock Wall Anchor System.

Our GeoLock Wall Anchoring System is installed into the wall and engineered to stop wall failure immediately. This system utilizes a plate buried in the ground outside of the cracked wall. A steel rod is drilled through a one-inch hole in the wall and connected to the anchor plate. A plate is then placed on the interior side and bolted in place. The plate is secured to the rod and tightened until there is pressure on the wall. The pressure created by the wall anchor will pull the wall back into place, stopping it from cracking and permanently stabilizing it!

The concrete in Marshall’s driveway was uneven so he called our team. To fix his problem, we installed PolyLevel, a system designed to fix concrete slabs that have sunk by using polyurethane foam that expands and has a high density 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.

This Schoolcraft home had cracked and bowed walls in the basement. The owner wanted a solution that would stop the wall from moving and keep the home standing. We used CarbonArmor to stabilize the basement walls which installs quickly and will not take up any usable space or impact future basement finishings.

Paul worried his foundation walls would cave in if the cracks continued to grow and deepen. He didn't want the issue to worsen, so he researched his options and called Ayers for assistance. Our trained professionals visited his home and installed the PowerBrace repair system to stabilize the wall and prevent caving. The PowerBrace system connects steel beams to joists above the wall with steel brackets. Afterwards, everything is tightened into place and the wall is secure once again. Paul loves how fast the project was completed!
