Before & After Photos

We were called when the customers noticed they had two bowing walls in the basment that were causing leaks as well as cracking outside the house. They were planning on selling the home so they needed to walls fixed before they could do that.

We installed GeoLock Anchors to halt the movemnt of the wall. GeoLock Anchors are made of steel and are suspended into hard, stable soil. They anchor into the stronger soil to brace the foundation wall and keep any further movment from happening. The installation causes very minimal disturbance to your yard and they dont take up usable space in your basement!

Our team installed PowerBrace in a customer's home because his basement walls were bowed. Knowing this would continue to affect the foundation of his home he called our team. PowerBrace is a foundation repair system that secures basement walls in place. Often outside pressures can cause your basement walls to crack or tilt, this foundation repair system counteracts these pressures by keeping your basement walls in place. Over time, the system can be tightened to not only secure the walls in place, but to also straighten them. 

We installed CleanSpace Wall System in the crawl space of Helen's lakefront home a few years ago, and it has worked wonders. Helen told us she has been saving money on her heating bills and the whole house stays much warmer in the winter. She wants this to be her forever home, so there's a few things she wanted to get in tip-top shape. She called Ayers for an inspection and we noticed many of the supplemental beams were rusted and falling apart, and the floors were beginning to sag. Our crew determined that we would need to replace them with SmartJacks to stabilize the foundation. 

SmartJacks are steel supports that balance the foundation of the crawl space, lifting it to its original position. They can be adjusted so the home will never shift out of place. We anchor them into the ground with poured concrete, and regular flooring can be placed on top. 

Our crew loved hearing Helen's stories, and she was ecstatic that we could get her beautiful lake home stabilized for life. Ayers was so happy to be able to help this loyal customer. 

This 70-year-old home in Portage had sagging floors that felt springy and uneven, thanks to years of DIY support using wood planks and cinderblocks in the dirt crawl space. The customer knew they needed a more permanent solution to avoid further structural issues.

Ayers installed SmartJacks with a supplemental beam to reinforce the floorboards from below. We excavated the soil and backfilled with engineered fill to create a solid foundation for the SmartJacks. Now, with the floors stable and even, the homeowner can finally enjoy their living space without worrying about shifting supports.

Geeta needed help leveling her porch because a concrete slab was sinking. So our team installed PolyLevel, a system designed to fix concrete slabs that have sunk by using a new product to lift the concrete slabs back to their original level. The new product used is a 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.
