Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

After being told by an adjuster that water was leaking into his crawl space, this customer put in a call for help to a company he knew he could trust. We had done some work on the basement of another one of his properties a few years back and he was extremely satisfied with our services. Our system design specialist went for a visit and found that the issue was worse than the owner originally thought. Not only was the leaking water hurting his crawl space, it was affecting the basement, as well. The water would leak in through the crawl space walls and then flow down to the basement.

To put a stop to the leakage, the crew encapsulated both the walls and floor with the CleanSpace vapor barrier. CleanSpace is impenetrable by moisture or water vapor. Underneath the barrier is a drainage matting designed to keep water from pooling and direct it to the drain for discharge. If any water does make it through the crawl space walls, it will flow behind the vapor barrier and then be directed out by the drainage matting.

The homeowners had water coming into their basement from their crawlspace. Water was pooling in their crawlspace and seeping into their home. The homeowner did not have a sump pump so standing water had started to accumulate in the basement. 

Our professional team installed the TripleSafe sump pump in order to combat this standing water. The TripleSafe sump pump is great because it has three sump pumps in one, giving you triple protection. The first pump will remove water from your home efficiently and effectively. The second pump is more powerful and has a separate discharge line. The second pump is there for you on the rare occasions that the first pump fails. The third pump is equipped with batteries so it is there for you if the power goes out. The triple safe sump pump is the best option because it adjusts automatically when needed and keeps your basement dry with triple protection.

There were several cracks in one of Dan’s foundation walls. So he called our team and we installed the GeoLock Anchor System. This system permanently stabilized Dan's wall. In most cases it can eventually straighten the wall back to its original position. It is done by putting heavy anchors in stable soil away from your foundation wall. This system is ideal because it involves minimal disturbance to Dan's lawn and home. For Dan, we also installed the wall plate part of the GeoLock system. These plates can easily be covered to allow your basement to have a finished look.

Mary and Rodger had several cracks in the sidewalks in the front and back of their home and it had become very uneven. It was a safety hazard, so they called Ayers to see what could be done. Our crew determined that PolyLevel would be the perfect solution for the job. PolyLevel is a system we use to repair sinking or cracked concrete. We drill minuscule holes into the concrete slab and fill them with foam. The foam raises the slab and fortifies it to make it last even longer. Mary and Rodger no longer have to worry about someone falling just walking into the house.  

A customer was struggling with foundational issues in his home. His caulk was cracking, his doors and windows were sticking and his bathub was uneven. So our team installed SmartJack, a system produced to halt your settlement issues. Floors above crawl spaces are vulnerable due to the moisture and soils in your crawl space. The SmartJack system is a permanent fix to these issues. It uses steel columns, threaded rods and a solid base to address any issues your crawl space may introduce to your home. Installing this system usually takes less than a day and it provides immediate stabilization.
