Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Ron called because there was a 3x5 area in the crawl space - the area under the chimney - where the floor joists were rotting through. We added new supports to the existing joists and bolstered the whole area with two SmartJack crawl space support posts.

Scott called with a multitude of problems in his basement, the largest of which was water. We installed a full waterproofing system that included replacing the old, open sump pump (being uncovered exposes it to damage risk and debris) with a top of the line TripleSafe sump pump, which will keep the basement dry.

We received a call from these Fife Lake, MI customers because the joists in their cabin crawl space were rotting. When the cabin was raised years ago, the crawl space foundation was redone, and the joists hadn’t seen any repairs since. As you can see in the before pictures, time hadn’t been kind to the wood. The after photo shows where the crew reinforced the failing joists with galvanized steel beams. After the joists were fully supported, the crew installed our SmartJack system. The SmartJacks work just like normal jacks and were able to lift the sagging floor. Rotting joists won’t trouble this crawl space again. 

Pat and Arden are retiring in their forever home but they have recently noticed it is hard to breathe the air in the home and they are worried it is mold. Upon inspection, not only did we have the perfect solution to their mold problem, but we found that their floors were not properly supported. To support the floors, we installed SmartJacks which will keep them level. To address the other issue, we started with CleanSpace Crawl Space Vapor Barrier which is a thick and durable waterproof liner. It prevents humidity, water vapor, and pests from entering the space. We also installed the SaniDry Sedona which dries out the space by blowing dry air throughout. 

Gloria called Ayers for remedies to keep her basement and belongings dry! After a free inspection was conducted our professionals determined she could use our WaterGuard System and IceGuard. The WaterGuard system will collect dirt or water seeping in through her basement walls and direct it to the sump system it is hooked to. Then it is concealed with concrete. Lastly we added IceGuard to prevent her exterior discharge lines from freezing or clogging with its antifreeze fitting that has slotted openings which eject water away from the foundation.

Gloria was satisfied with these waterproofing installations that ensure her home stays dry!
