Before & After Photos

Mike was shocked at the amount of water that leaked into his basement during the last storm. He realized his sump pump wasn't working during power outages. Mike wanted to get this fixed, so he called Ayers for help. We sent a team of experts to recommend a solution. Our team decided it was best to install the UltraSump sump pump system. This system prevents sump pump failure by using a battery-powered backup pump to ensure the house stays dry without power and alerts the homeowner when it's in use. 

Building code requires an egress window in a basement bedroom, but they are often a desired feature in any finished basement or even unfinished spaces because they let light into a normally dark room.

Alexander worried the water draining into his crawl space would cause damage to the structure of his home, so he gave Ayers a call. Our experts inspected the issue and recommended WaterGuard as the best solution. WaterGuard is a drainage pipe system engineered to reduce clogs and placed on top of rather than alongside the footing, unlike other drainage pipes. Alexander is overjoyed to have a dry crawl space!

This lakefront cottage's Michigan basement had foundation issues, including water infiltration in one corner, likely due to the artesian well constantly flowing. The basement also had a sagging floor that required additional support, particularly in areas with pipes and structural stress. To fix these issues, Ayers reinforced the basement with rebar and other structural supports to handle water leakage and improve the foundation. A supplemental beam and SmartJacks were added to lift and stabilize the sagging floor. The water issues, possibly from the well and leaking pipes, were addressed by improving drainage and sealing the affected areas, ensuring the space stays dry and the foundation is secure.

Scott noticed his old sump pump wasn't efficiently removing water from his basement, and some had begun leaking onto the floor. He wasn't sure how to fix the problem, so he researched his options and called Ayers to learn about our waterproofing solutions. We sent a team of professionals to examine the space and recommend a solution. They suggested installing the TripleSafe sump pump designed to prevent accidents from pump failure by including three pumps. The first is the primary, followed by a backup, and finally, a battery-powered backup in case of power outages. Scott is happy with his dry basement!
