Before & After Photos

A cracking, bowing, tilting, or buckling foundation wall can mean serious trouble for not only your foundation, but for your entire home. To save their foundation wall, this Grand Rapids, MI family gave us a call. Upon a professional inspection, one of our specialists recommended our patented PowerBrace foundation wall repair system. PowerBrace uses steel I-beams that secure to the joists above the wall, offering a great amount of support for foundation walls, and may have the power to bring back the walls to their original position. This family no longer has to worry about their safety in their home with PowerBrace.

Scott had cracks appearing in the middle and corners of his drywall. He called our team and we installed the GeoLock Anchor System. This system permanently stabilized Scott's wall. In most cases it can eventually straighten the wall back to its original position. It is done by putting heavy anchors in stable soil away from your foundation wall. This system is ideal because it involves minimal disturbance to Scott's lawn and home. For Scott, we also installed the wall plate part of the GeoLock system. These plates can easily be covered to allow your basement to have a finished look. 

This Grand Rapids home had a foundation wall that was cracked and bowing. They were nervous about the home and wanted a solution that would stabilize the wall permanently. We used the GeoLock Wall Anchors which are made of steel and provide a long-lasting solution to prevent further movement in the wall. They won't take up space in the basement and the installation won't disrupt the lawn.

Jacob plans on finishing his Kentwood, MI basement and wants to add another bedroom. To do so, he called Ayers for an inspection for an egress window installation. 

Egress windows from Ayers bring safety and beauty in one. Building codes require that basement living spaces must have a large enough window to safely evacuate in case of emergency. Our windows have built-in steps and durable covers that hold up to 500 pounds. Because adding an egress window requires cutting a hole in the foundation, a window installation company is not the safest option. Ayers knows foundations and knows how to install an egress window properly. 

Jason was thrilled with the installation done by the Ayers crew. He was more than satisfied with the egress window and can’t wait to finish the rest of the basement! 

Marcy was sick of the foundation crack that was causing her all sorts of trouble like water leaks. She made the right call talking to Ayers and getting an appointment set up. After an inspection we went forward with installing CarbonArmor and our CleanSpace Wall System to address these issues. First with Carbon Armor these carbon fiber straps will fix the bowing wall by preventing further inward movement. Then with the CleanSpace Wall System this will cover these foundation walls and act as a vapor barrier to combat excess vapor or moisture with its poly sheet material. 

Marcy was happy to get these serious issues resolved before they jeopardized the safety of her home!
