Saving a Bowing Wall in Delton MI

Gary purchased his home about a year ago and everything was great. He recently noticed a crack 3/4 the length of the basement wall and it was bowing inward. We installed the CarbonAmor Wall Reinforcing System to stabilize the wall. This system includes flexible carbon fiber fabric straps that are up to 10 times stronger in tension than steel. These straps are bonded to the wall using a high strength epoxy resin. This system requires no exterior excavation, installs quickly, and won't impact future basement finishing.

Block Wall Replaced and SmartJacks Installed in Delton, MI

This home was built around the 1940's and was showing some major signs of age and the soil around the foundation had settled. Some of the block foundation wall had actually fallen and needed to be completey replaced. The homeowner also noticed that the doors and windows in the home were sticking which is another sign of the foundation settling. The floor on the first level needed to be lifted back up to its original position. There were also some very old windows that needed to be replaced as they were allowing moisture and unwanted outside elements into the basement. 

This home needed some of its foundation and other problems taken care of and they definitely called the right people for the job. We installed SmartJacks to lift the foundation back it's original position. We also replaced the block wall that had fallen and sprayed foam insulation around the rim joist to make sure this basement is completely sealed off. The entire weight of your home sits on your foundation so it's important it's sturdy and safe. This project restored the value of this home and gave the owners peace of mind knowing that their home is stable and safe for years to come. 

GeoLock Anchors Aid and Stabilize Bowing Walls in Delton, MI Home

Jim was concerned about the safety of his home when he noticed bowing in his foundation walls so he decided to make the call to Ayers. After our crew conducted an inspection it was settled that our GeoLock Anchors would provide the best fix. These anchors are connected by a steel rod to a wall plate that provides clamping pressure against the inside of the foundation wall and work to prevent further wall bowing caused by soil pressure.

 

Jim was glad he got professional assistance to ensure his home's safety!

Repairing A Cracked Foundation In Delton, MI

Scott and Jody Contacted Ayers looking for a solution for their home. Within their basement, there were noticeable cracks in the foundation. Once contacting Ayers, An appointment was set up for a thorough home assessment. Based on the assessment results, the team at Ayers concluded that GeoLock Wall Anchors would be best for the situation. 

 

GeoLock Wall Anchors act as an anchoring system to pull walls back into their original place while providing support. A load-bearing plate is buried outside of the home, serving as the anchor, and a steel rod is drilled through the foundation and to the load-bearing plate. Lastly, Wall plates are bolted into place on the interior side of the wall and tightened onto the steel rod. Once everything was connected and tightened in Scott and Jody's home, their foundation was stabilized, and the cracked foundation was no longer problematic!
