Before & After Photos

This home, built on sandy soil, showed significant foundation concerns, including a cracking basement window and deteriorating block joints near the bottom. With both an addition featuring a block foundation and an original stone Michigan basement, the customer was understandably worried about the stability of their home.

Ayers thoroughly inspected all joints, joists, beams, and footers, then reinforced the foundation and repaired the deteriorating joints. We also applied a clean coating to the basement walls, enhancing the structure’s integrity. Now, with a stable and secure foundation, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their home is safe and sound.

During heavy rains Brett and Sandy’s basement would flood. In order to  waterproof their basement our team installed the WaterGuard system along with TripleSafe and IceGuard.  These three items each play a large role in keeping basements dry. Catching any leakage from higher walls and floors, the WaterGuard system will prevent water from reaching the basement floor. TripleSafe is a sump pump system that is battery powered which will allow Brett and Sandy to not worry about their basement flooding during power outages. Lastly, the IceGuard Sump Pump Discharge Line System allows water to leave even when it is frozen. Installing these three pieces will keep their basement dry no matter what weather their house encounters.

Cara was having trouble with water leaking through her basement walls. Irritated with the water pools invading her space, she gave Ayers a call hoping for a solution. We sent out a crew and our System Design Specialists inspected her basement. They let Cara know our WaterGuard System and TripleSafe Sump Pump System would do the trick!

We first installed our WaterGuard System which is a sub-floor drainage system designed to stop these annoying wall leaks that intrude your home space. This will collect any water and dirt which will then be directed to your sump system. We then installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System which consists of three pumps that fit in one trusty liner that work together to keep water out of your basement. The first pump will be doing most of the work while the second is there for assistance or if the first fails. The final pump is battery-operated meaning it will run during power outages.

Cara was grateful to have a permanent solution installed to tackle her pesky wall water leaks!

Water was leaking into Josiah’s crawl space from several different areas so our team 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.

A customer called our team because he wanted his basement to be a liveable space. So we installed an Egress Window and Well in his basement. Egress Windows provide a safe exit in case of emergency so they are required in finished basement living areas. In addition to having a safe exit in your basement, these windows provide lots of natural light. Lastly, most windows offer minimal protection against outside air entering the home due to poor insulation around the window. Egress windows will help ventilate your indoor areas and prevent unwanted allergens from entering your house.
