Before & After Photos

David and his wife are in their forever home and have been for many years. They wanted to home to last and to do that there were some things they needed to have fixed. They had some basement walls that were starting to bow and buckle so we stabilized the wall with CarbonArmor. The CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System is made out of carbon fiber straps that are secured to the wall and will keep the wall from moving any further.

Steve owns a duplex he rents to his daughter and worries about the condition of the building. He already spent money on restoring the garage with a different company, but saw that it drifted away from the main home again. Steve called Ayers and had our Foreman Evan inspect the home on his behalf due to him being out of state. After listening to Steve's concerns, he drafted a treatment plan that would reintroduce stability to the home's foundational soil and prevent further drifting.

Evan and his team installed a Helical Pier system to stabilize the home. The piers are installed by excavating the outer perimeter of the home and driving screw-shaped steel beams into the ground at an angle, past the weak soil, and into the frim ground. The tops of the beams are fitted with loadbearing concrete blocks that the entire home rests on.

One of the walls in this Lansing, MI basement was bowing inward and had multiple cracks in the cinder block seams. The homeowners wanted to do some remodeling in the basement, so they wanted the issue resolved before doing so.

To stabilize the shifting wall, we installed the CarbonArmor system that used carbon fiber straps to hold the wall in place. The straps are 10x stronger than steel and are adhered to the wall with a strong epoxy resin. Once attached to the walls, the system was secured into place with steel brackets to prevent the wall from continuing to shift and crack over time.

This Lansing homeowner had a flood in her basement last summer and now has some cracks where water leaks in. She wanted a solution and a peace of mind the foundtion was going to be secure. We installed the GeoLock Channel Anchors to provide an incredible solution that will halt all inward movement of your walls. The anchors are made up of steel beams with floor mounts for extra strength. Steel earth anchors are installed and steel rods are joined to them through the wall. The channel anchor is then mounted on the other end of the rod inside your foundation wall. This will stabilie the wall and could return the wall to the original position. 

This Lansing homeowner has a small leak in her basement but it had just flooded a couple months ago. She sees the wall is bowing a little and there is a crack on the backside of her home. She wants to remodel her home, but needs to start with the basement so that the structure is supported. We installed GeoLock Channel Anchors to stabilize the  basement walls. Galvanized steel earth anchors are installed and steel rods are joined to them through the wall. The channel anchor is then mounted on the other end of the rod inside your foundation wall, secured to the floor, and tightened into place. This will permanently stabilize your wall and could possibly return it to its original condition.
