Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

James tried adding protection to his crawl space with a store-bought tarp. Our professionals at Ayers know this is only a temporary band-aid to the problem. James knew a permanent solution was required to tackle his crawl space issues, so he called Ayers. Our crew inspected the area and let James know CleanSpace would provide the necessary protection. CleanSpace utilizes a vapor barrier that prevents the growth of nasty mold or bacteria. This solution is a thick plastic liner that covers the crawl space floor and walls. The liner will repel moisture development and other outside pests that prosper in these areas. James feels more at ease with his crawl space sealed permanently!

After intermittent water issues in the crawl space - regularly occurring but usually negligible amounts of water - our customer looked into his crawl space to find four inches of standing water.

We drained the water (the before picture is the immediate aftermath, where everything is still nice and soggy) and installed a Smart Sump to help with any future water accumulation, before encapsulating the crawl space with the CleanSpace vapor barrier system and drainage matting.

Dave realized water leaked into his basement after the last snowstorm around the seams of the floor and walls. He wasn't sure how to fix the issue, so he researched his options and called Ayers for help. Our specialists stopped by his home to assess the problem and suggest a solution. They recommended and installed WaterGuard, an advanced drainage pipe system designed to prevent clogging by sitting above the home's footing rather than alongside it. Dave loves his dry basement!

One of our crews at Ayers inspected Sheila's North Adams, Michigan, home to decipher the best solution for water intrusion. We determined our WaterGuard system would be the best option to keep water outside the home. WaterGuard, a specially designed interior drainage system, collects water leaks and directs them to a sump pump. We installed this piping along the perimeter of the basement on top of the foundation's footing. As water leaks through the walls and falls to the floor, WaterGuard collects it within the subfloor drain, preventing water damage. Pouring concrete over the system conceals it within the basement floor. Sheila is grateful to receive the professional help her basement desperately requires!

Linda was looking into an egress window to replace her smaller standard window. After calling Ayers, we recommended an egress window. This replacement will make her basement brighter and safer. This space will have more fresh air circulation, and the larger opening allows for a safe exit in emergencies. Linda's new window has an exterior well attached and is waterproof, so there will be no need to stress about leaks during heavy rainfalls!
