Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

This homeowner called for a solution to the unevenness in his settling driveway. We used PolyLevel which is a strong but light weight foam. This foam is waterproof and stable so it won't wash away or react with soils. It cures in about 15 minutes so it is full load bearing in a short period of time. We then used NexusPro Crack Repair to seal the cracks that formed from the concrete falling. NexusPro prevents water and debris from degrading the slab from below. It is a silicone-based filler and specifically designed to withstand harsh weather. Like PolyLevel, its drying time is quick and it dries in about an hour.

This Hastings homeowner has been maintaining her home by completing projects the past couple years. She called us because she found several areas that had cracked or sunken concrete like the back porch, driveway, and the walkway to the front porch. She wanted all the cracks sealed and the settled concrete lifted. We used PolyLevel and NexusPro to fix her issues and keep her safe in her home! PolyLevel is an injectable foam that is used to lift the concrete back to the original level. NexusPro seals the cracks and joints of the concrete to keep things from getting under neath and degrading the slab from below. 

Alexandra bought a new home, and while it was new to her, it was still a 100-year-old house. She noticed foundational problems immediately as the floor between her kitchen and dining room was sagging. Looking to prevent it from getting worse, Alexandra contacted Ayers. After a System Design Specialist with Ayers thoroughly inspected the home, it was determined SmartJacks would be perfect for the job. 

The SmartJack system utilizes a concrete load-bearing base that is poured into a pre-dug hole. Once the bottom is set, a steel column is cut to the desired height and attached to a supplemental support beam across the floor joist. This system will permanently stabilize her home and, most importantly, stop the floor from sagging by bringing it back to a level height. Alexandra was happy to have found a solution that fixed her floor and stabilized her home! 

Mary found moisture seeping through her stone basement walls and wasn't sure how to fix the problem. After researching her options online, she called Ayers to learn about our concrete repair solutions. We sent a team of specialists to her home to examine the space and recommend a solution. The team suggested installing Shotcrete, which applies a concrete or mortar wet spray through a high-pressure hose to fill a form or repair damaged surfaces. Mary loves the look of her new wall!

Bonnie, a pre-existing customer of Ayers, found that her crawl space had quite an awful smell that appeared to be seeping into the rest of the house. Bonnie contacted Ayers, and a System Design Specialist was sent out in no time! The team at Ayers concluded that mold had developed from a high moisture level. Thus, the team at Ayers suggested installing CleanSpace and Mold-X.

Mold-X is a treatment applied to where the mold has formed or may form and will eliminate all traces of the mold. While the mold was destroyed, the crawl space still needed to stay dry to keep the mold away. Thus, CleanSpace was installed, which utilizes a heavy-duty plastic liner that lines the entire crawlspace. The liner creates a moisture barrier and will prevent any moisture from getting into Bonny's crawl space! After everything was installed, Bonnie could breathe fresh air within her home!
