GeoLock Wall Anchors Save a Saginaw, MI Home

Mitchell realized his foundation was severely degrading. Cracks formed, and blocks from the block foundation were missing. Mitchell decided it was time to find a solution for his home and contacted Ayers. An Ayers specialist thoroughly inspected his home and concluded the foundation walls were bowing. GeoLock Wall Anchors were suggested to permanently stabilize the foundation. GeoLock Anchors utilize a base buried outside the basement for an anchor point. Additionally, a rod is drilled through the foundation wall and to the anchor point where it is connected, allowing the plate on the interior side of the wall to be attached. Once the anchor system is set up and secured, the system can be tightened. For Mitchell, the GeoLock Wall Anchor permanently stabilized his foundation!

Wall Anchors Secure Cracking Wall in Saginaw, MI

Brandon noticed the walls outside his home were cracking, and he didn't want them to cave in, so he researched and called Ayers for help. Our crew of experts visited his home to assess the problem, and they recommended installing GeoLock wall anchors. The wall anchors are made of galvanized steel and fastened to the compromised wall. A ground anchor is placed away from the house in undisturbed soil and connected to the wall anchor by a steel rod. Brandon feels more comfortable knowing his wall is secure!

Bowed Wall Braced And Straightened In Wyoming, MI

This basement had a severly bowed wall. Horizontal cracking in a wall is often the first sign, but this was beyond that. We installed PowerBraces along the wall in order to help support the home above and prevent the wall from bowing any further. PowerBraces also come with a great tightening feature that can be used during dry periods to gradually tighten and perhaps straighten the wall bringing it back to its original position. The installed powerbraces prior to tightening show the severity of the bowing in the wall. Hopefully the wall can be straightened over time but at the very least, these homeowners can relax knowing that the PowerBraces will keep the the home supported properly and prevent the wall from eventually caving in.
