Before & After Photos

The Zeeland rental home had some water issues and we were called for a solution to a dry basement. There was water leaking from where the floor meets the wall in a corner of a room in the basement. The basement is finished and the water soaked 5 ft of the carpet and ow the area is squishy. There was no sump pump in the basement and there hasn't been a water issues in years. 

We installed the WaterGuard to keep the basement dry. The WaterGuard is a French drain system that is installed under the floor but above the foundation to keep it out of the 'mud zone' where drains can clog. This system collects water the seeps into the basement through the walls and directs it to the sump pump. We also installed the TripleSafe Sump Pump System which offers 3 levels of protection to your basement. The TripleSafe system uses a powerful sump pump set at the lowest level for normal functioning but in heavy volumes of water or in case of primary pump failure, a second, more powerful set a bit higher in the liner will take over and in case of a power outage, our UltraSump battery backup sump pump, set at the highest level takes over. 

Laurie and Vern have block windows in their finished basement but are creating a bedroom in the area for their granddaughter. They want the space to be safe for her and her child so they called us about an Egress window. We installed the Egress window and well for them. The window is large enough to allow safe exit out of the space in case of an emergency as well as allow more natural light to enter the room making the space feel more inviting. The window well is made up of one piece so it will not collapse from backfill or allow water to leak through the well walls. It is also engineered for safety and includes a built in ladder for easy escape.

Chris was stressed over some pesky wall leaks that were happening in his basement over the last five years. Overwhelmed with this issue he finally had enough and decided to call Ayers. We sent a crew to his home for a free inspection and our System Design Specialists concluded that our WaterGuard System would provide the perfect resolution to what felt like a never-ending nightmare!

We went forward with installing WaterGuard because this sub-floor drainage system that runs along the perimeter of your basement and keeps water or dirt away from your foundation. The water leaking in through the basement walls would be carried to the drainage pipes rather than your floor and will then be directed to your sump pump system. The gray WaterGuard Port is there for inspections so our crew can easily access the system if necessary in the future.

Chris was very relieved to finally get these irritating wall leaks resolved with a trustworthy waterproofing solution!

Trevor noticed water pooling on the floor in his basement. Knowing this was an issue, he called Ayers to learn more. We sent a team of specialists who recommended he install the Triple Safe sump pump system. TripleSafe prevents pump failure and leaking water by including a primary pump, backup, and battery-powered sump in case of power outages. Trevor is relieved to be confident in his dry basement!

Randy moved into his home and realized the windows in his basement didn't allow for an easy escape. Safety in his home is a top priority for Randy, so he researched and called Ayers for help. Our crew of professionals visited to evaluate the space and recommended installing an egress window. Having an easy escape from the basement during an emergency is integral and our egress windows include stair steps, easy-open windows, and a polycarbonate safety cover to prevent surface falls. Randy loves his new escape plan!
