Before & After Photos

Bryant had ongoing issues with his bowing basement walls and realized he could no longer ignore the evident damage to his walls. You could see the stair step crack on the inside and outside of his home. These cracks follow the mortar lines in a block wall as pressure on the wall increases. Stair step cracks are dangerous because they cover a wide area. This wall was well on its way to collapse without a repair solution. We used CarbonArmor® to stabilize his basement walls. CarbonArmor is a wall reinforcing system with straps made from a fiber-reinforced polymer that is ten times stronger than steel. CarbonArmor® stabilized Bryant's walls and will now protect them from future bowing.

Jennifer was in desperate need of a new waterproofing system that would eliminate the water leaks arising in her basement. After giving Ayers a call we conducted a free inspection of her home. Our System Design Specialists then determined our WaterGuard System and TripleSafe Sump Pump System would solve her issues. The WaterGuard is a subfloor drainage system installed along the perimeter of the basement meant to collect any water leaking through the walls. We conceal this system with concrete and hook it to the sump pump for the water to be directed. Next, we installed TripleSafe, a three-pump system that fits in one durable liner. Each pump is there to ensure Jennifer's basement stays dry!

Chelsea was looking into getting a couple of Egress Windows installed to make her basement space look more attractive. She trusted Ayers for the job so we sent a crew to her home to begin the installations. Egress Windows are much larger which allows more natural light to fill the room. This will brighten up the room and make it more inviting. These are durable, waterproof windows that come with an exterior well. The main benefit is the safe exit option the window provides for emergency situations. Chelsea's basement has transformed into a regular living space with the addition of these Egress Windows!

Shirley believed she had water in her crawl space so she called our team and asked us to take a look. We did find water and so we installed SmartSump. The SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump was perfectly designed for crawl spaces. It prevents flooding by reducing moisture in the crawl space and by removing any water quickly. The drain connected to the pump takes the water out of your crawl space while not allowing any damp air to enter.

We received a call from one of our customers in Berrien Springs, they wanted help waterproofing their basement and they knew that we were the right people to call to make sure that the job is done right. We gave them a free estimate and decided to install a SuperSump among many things because their current sump pump would not be able to stand Michigan weather. The SuperSump contains a pump stand (prevents clogging of any debris in the sump liner), pump alarm (for when the basement floods), and an airtight sump lid with a floor drain in it (helps water to go down but not air to come up). Now this homeowner won't have to worry about a basement flood ever again.
