Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Lisa and her mother have lived in their Kalamazoo, MI home for a while and have been monitoring the condition of the driveway for about 2 years. Recently, they noticed it has gotten much worse. Multiple slabs in the concrete driveway were sinking and water was flowing underneath. They want to live in the home forever, so they want to take care of it the best they can. Ayers was more than willing to be the one to take care of the problem. After our crew came out for an inspection, they determined that the driveway would need a combination of NexusPro and PolyLevel. 

NexusPro is a sealant that fills the cracks in the concrete. It is extremely withstanding to harsh weather so it will remain intact for years. The PolyLevel system is used to repair sinking concrete by drilling minuscule holes into the slab and filling them with foam. The foam raises the slab and fortifies it to make it last even longer.  

Lisa and her mother were ecstatic with the work done by the Ayers crew. They are so happy they took care of the driveway now, before the winter freeze comes through and makes it worse. They were thrilled with how the driveway looked after the installation.

Verbina called Ayers because her basement had cracks throughout all the walls, constantly letting dirt inside. The home was built in 1956 and was vacant for a few years. Our crew came out for an inspection and determined Verbena would need ShotCrete to seal off her foundation. 

Shotcrete is a sprayable concrete that stabilizes basement walls and fills any holes that let in unwanted dirt, water, or air. It’s applied though a high-pressure hose. The extra air propelling the concrete out is what makes the shotcrete able to be applied to vertical and sloping surfaces.  

Verbina was thrilled with the work completed by Ayers Basement Systems and our crews. She was so happy she doesn’t have to deal with the dirt and dust in the basement anymore and can actually use it. 

Trudi noticed water leaking into her basement from the seams between the floor and walls. She spent the last few days trying to mop up the water and eventually called Ayers to learn about our waterproofing solutions. Our team of specialists stopped by her home and recommended installing the WaterGuard drainage pipe system. WaterGuard reduces drainage pipe clogs by sitting atop the home's footing rather than alongside it like most systems. Trudi is happy to put her mop away!

Paul was worried about his basement walls as they had excess moisture dripping from them and no efficient sump pump system to deal with it, so he called Ayers. After our crew inspected his basement it was agreed that we would install our CleanSpace Wall System and SuperSump Plus to resolve these problems. First with the CleanSpace Wall System this is made of a durable, plastic liner with a vapor barrier that will prevent this moisture development on the walls. Then SuperSump Plus was added to take care of any water that does happen to drain down the wall as this is a horsepower pump capable of pumping 2200 gallons of water an hour.

Paul was grateful to have two efficient, trustworthy systems installed to keep his walls clean and dry!

A Kalamazoo nonprofit struggled with a sinking foundation, basement water issues, and pest problems. Ayers provided a custom solution with SmartJacks, push piers, TripleSafe™ sump pumps, and more; restoring safety and peace of mind so the team can focus on serving their community.
