Before & After Photos

Bob rents this home to collage students in the area. The garage has a corner that has settled which has been an issue for a while but he wants it fixed before it gets any worse. We used Helical Piers to stabilize the garage. Helical Piers can have sections added to be able to reach stable soil in which the piers will anchor in. The system stabilizes the structure but also restores it to the original position. The installation is fast and can be done year round so no need to worry about the season, we can fix your settled home anytime!

Mr. Emmert was suffering from foundational issues that were causing unsightly problems with his basement. Wanting to keep the space usable as a gym, he contacted Ayers to find a stabilization method that would give his home the best support, all while saving as much space as possible. After contacting our team, Ayers's resident foreman Blade was able to inspect the home and draft a treatment plan that met Mr. Emmert's needs and budget.

Blade prescribed PowerBraces for the structure. By lining the weak wall with steel beams that fix to the rim joist, they are able to push the wall back into place all while adding new support to the basement. A permeate solution, these braces can be easily hidden or even have drywall placed over it.

Now Mr. Emmert has a safe and stable home, all while never sacrificing living space.

This customer called us because the wall in his basement was literally bowed in. A lot of people don't realize the pressure that soil puts on the foundation walls. Overtime the pressure of the soil outside the basement can cause your walls to bow, crack or push inward which can be a very serious problem.

Our team of experts installed our Carbon Fiber straps to fix the bowing wall. These straps are almost impossible to stretch and therefore can be glued to block walls to keep the center of the wall in place. These straps are also a great option is there is limited room for digging outside the home or inside the home. We do not suggest this item if your basement walls have started to slide in at the top or bottom though.

Frank's living room floor was slanted for as long as he could remember. He tried buying store-bought floor jacks, which only worked briefly. He became frustrated with the problem, so he researched his options and called Ayers for help. Our crew of experts visited his home and decided the SmartJacks supplemental support system was the best solution. SmartJacks are a system of floor jacks that are far more durable and anchored two feet underneath the surface to increase load-bearing capability. Frank can't believe how level his living room is!

We received a call from some homeowners from Grand Rapids that was having issues with their squeaky floorboards, so we drove to their home to see for ourselves. After inspection we decided to install our advanced SmartJack system.  The SmartJack is a support system used to stabilize and level the floor joists in a crawl space. This system can support up to 60,000 pounds. The SmartJack system is placed on strong concrete fillings that have replaced the soil in that small location underneath the SmartJack. Now this homeowner will not have to worry about bad floors ever again.
