Before & After Photos

Scott and Kathleen had a competitor install a waterproofing system in their home that had a discharge line that dispelled water into their neighbor's yard. The lack of an extended discharge line away from the home meant that expelled water traveled right back into the home through the soil surrounding the house. We installed an extended discharge line at an angle that runs between the home and the neighboring home. We also installed the IceGuard Discharge Line System which is a fitting that is placed over the top of your discharge line in the event that water needs a secondary escape route. This prevents it from freezing.

Jeffrey was hoping to get a replacement for his current tiny basement window that wasn't doing him any favors. He called up Ayers and expressed his interest in our Egress Windows. These make a great addition to your basement as they are much larger which opens up the space with more natural light able to shine through. These are waterproof windows with an exterior well built around it to ensure water doesn't leak into his basement. The best advantage is its safety factor since Egress Windows provide a safe exit in the event an emergency takes place. Jeffrey was very pleased with the finished look these windows gave his basement!

This wall crack had been plaguing this basement for some time now. When it rained, water flowed through the crack and onto the basement floor. The homeowner wondered if there was anything we could do. There was. We had a simple, attractive, and economical solution. It's called FlexiSpan. We put a sealant on the crack. This is just a primary solution but its not permanent so we go a few steps further to make sure the crack never bothers the homeowner again. Next we removed some of the concrete at the base of the crack and dug out a drywell, about 3-5 gallons in size and filled that with stone. The concrete was replaced with the exception of a small gap along the wall so water could run into the drywell that we created beneath the concrete. In cases like this with a nearby sump pump, we may also create hole in the side of the sump well to allow the water to flow into the well and be removed from the home. Finally a thin foam layer and a strip of our durable CleanSpace material is put over the crack to conceal it. The foam allows for an easy flow of water down the wall and into the well. The problem is out of sight and out of mind and it will never puddle on the floor again.

Customers had cold air entering their crawl space so they needed it completely sealed off. Our team insulated their rim joists. Small cracks and seams can exist around rim joists, but after insulating them all of those cracks are sealed off. Now flow is restricted keeping moisture and unwanted allergens out. Therefore, cold air won't be drifting around their house anymore.

Linda gave Ayers a call when she decided to take action to protect her home from any water leaks. Our Ayers Design System Specialist let her know our WaterGuard System would be a great option to protect her belongings in the basement.

The WaterGuard System catches any leakages from higher levels with its drainage system that runs along the perimeter of your basement. It therefore keeps water and dirt away from your foundation and will have concrete poured over top to conceal it. You can add regular flooring over the concrete as well for a finished look.

Linda is relieved to have her basement waterproofed by Ayers!
