Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Clair and Michael came to Ayers because they had issues with their Michigan basement. The cold air from the basement appeared to be seeping into the home, causing the rest of the home to become cold. Ayers inspected the house and concluded that CleanSpace would be perfect for the problem. CleanSpace utilizes a heavy-duty pool-like liner that lines the entirety of the space and creates a moisture barrier. The moisture will not only keep water out of the basement but also keep cold air out and warm air inside the home. Once CleanSpace was installed in Clair and Michael's house, they no longer had issues with their home getting cold!

This lakefront cottage's Michigan basement had foundation issues, including water infiltration in one corner, likely due to the artesian well constantly flowing. The basement also had a sagging floor that required additional support, particularly in areas with pipes and structural stress. To fix these issues, Ayers reinforced the basement with rebar and other structural supports to handle water leakage and improve the foundation. A supplemental beam and SmartJacks were added to lift and stabilize the sagging floor. The water issues, possibly from the well and leaking pipes, were addressed by improving drainage and sealing the affected areas, ensuring the space stays dry and the foundation is secure.

Jack grew concerned with his apartment complex as the soil near the foundation had eroded. He contacted us at Ayers Basement System, and an inspection was soon conducted. Our team had determined the area would need to be backfilled with dirt to stabilize the site, and then Helical Piers would be required. Jack opted to go with the installation, and our crew got to work. Dirt was first brought into the area and leveled to provide a secure place for the Helical Piers. Helical Piers are a form of support that drill into the ground as the bottom portion of the pier has blades for support. Our crew installed 34 different Helical Piers, ensuring the soil will stop eroding for Jack!

Scott noticed his old sump pump wasn't efficiently removing water from his basement, and some had begun leaking onto the floor. He wasn't sure how to fix the problem, so he researched his options and called Ayers to learn about our waterproofing solutions. We sent a team of professionals to examine the space and recommend a solution. They suggested installing the TripleSafe sump pump designed to prevent accidents from pump failure by including three pumps. The first is the primary, followed by a backup, and finally, a battery-powered backup in case of power outages. Scott is happy with his dry basement!

Kyle was concerned the cracks in his basement walls would lead to more severe damage. He wasn't sure how to fix it himself, so he called Ayers. Our specialists visited his home and recommended the Supportworks GeoLock wall anchor system for his problem. Wall anchors are heavy-duty, galvanized earth anchors built to be placed in solid soil. A steel rod connects the ground anchor to the wall anchor securing the wall. Kyle is excited to have a stable basement wall!
