Before & After Photos

Dave's foundation had large cracks, and some walls were noticeably bowing. Unsure of a solution, he contacted us at Ayers Basement Systems, and an inspection was conducted. The PowerBrace system was suggested and later implemented to stop the bowing and straighten the wall over time. This system attaches to the floor joist in the basement and the footing of the home down below. Over time, this system will correct Dave's foundation back to its original state!

Ken needed one of his foundation walls repaired because it was cracking and bowing. So our team installed PowerBrace, a foundation repair system that secures basement walls in place. This foundation repair system counteracts the outside pressures that cause your basement walls to crack or tilt 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. 

Jo called our team because he had uneven and cracking concrete in his garage, sidewalk and driveway. We 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.

Julia was concerned about old, rusty support beams in her crawl space. They were no longer stabilizing her floors, leading to sagging, so she called Ayers. We determined from an inspection that SmartJacks would help with stabilization. This solution is an adjustable supplemental support system used for sagging crawl spaces. SmartJacks are installed by attaching steel support beams to the floor joists and rest on a sturdy base in the ground. They even can support loads of more than 60,000 pounds. Julia also won't have to worry about corrosion since they consist of galvanized steel for corrosion resistance!

Our customer called when the horizontal crack in her basement wall started getting bigger. There was no water coming in, but the wall was starting to bow. We used PowerBraces to stabilize the wall, and by tightening them each year we can hopefully straighten the wall over time.
