Before & After Photos

Lynette had water in her basement and contacted us at Ayers Basement Systems. She opted for internal draining systems and had discharge lines installed. She opted for LawnScape, an outlet that allows water to be pumped into the yard while stopping anything from getting into the drain. Lynette was thrilled with the job as she no longer needed to worry about water in her basement!

Jack in South Lyon, MI, wanted to create a safe, livable basement space for his growing family while adding value to his home. To kick-start the renovation, we installed an egress window, ensuring safety and natural light. During the project, we extended the sump pump discharge line away from the foundation to prevent future water issues. With the groundwork set, Jack is now ready to transform his basement into the perfect play area for his son.

Brandon saw one of our commercials for the egress windows Ayers offers. He was interested in getting one to make his basement safer, so he gave us a call. Egress windows allow a safe exit in the event of an emergency. Installing this window is especially crucial if you plan on finishing the basement or turning it into a regular living space. Brandon's basement will be brighter and more inviting for guests. He won't have issues with water seeping in during heavy rains since the windows are waterproof. Brandon is thrilled with how much larger and welcoming the basement feels now!

In their South Lyon, MI home just a stone’s throw from Whitmore Lake, one homeowner dreamed of escaping summer heat by relaxing in his cool basement “man cave.” But his wife had one rule—no spending serious time down there without a safe exit. That’s where Ayers came in. We replaced their old basement window with a large, code-compliant escape window (egress window) and added a sleek, galvanized steel cover for protection and curb appeal. Now, he can enjoy his retreat in comfort and safety—and she has peace of mind knowing the basement is secure and up to code.

The signs of water damage are visible in this Atlanta, MI basement, as the first picture shows. Water had been seeping in through the concrete blocks of these foundation walls, and with nowhere for it to go, it remained along the bottom of the wall.

The solutions our team installed to address this issue were the WaterGuard system and a TripleSafe sump pump. WaterGuard is a sub-floor drainage system that sits on top of the footing, capturing water from any leaks and rerouting it to the sump pump. The TripleSafe sump pump is the only of its kind—with three sump pumps in one liner, it functions even if one pump can’t keep up. A sump pump like this works to effectively pump water caught by the WaterGuard system out of your basement, keeping it dry at all times.
