Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

The front porch patio of Stephen's house had sunk so he called our team for help. We installed PolyLevel, a system designed to fix concrete slabs that have sunk by using a new product to lift the concrete slabs back to their original level. The new product used is a polyurethane foam that expands and has a high density in order to raise the concrete. The process is quite simple and is done by drilling small holes into the concrete and then inserting the foam into the holes. Also, the PolyLevel system is waterproof and long-lasting.

Anita and Tim contacted us when water started accumulating in their finished basement from their existing egress window. The couple had no sump pump in place which meant that incoming water had no drainage outlet. Standing water continued to do damage to their finished basement. While an egress window is required by law in a basement bedroom, it also brings in much needed light into an otherwise dark basement. However, if installed incorrectly or without waterproofing considerations, these windows serve as yet another entry point for water and moisture. We installed two egress windows for the family. The accompanying window wells are made up of one piece so it will not collapse from backfill or allow water to leak through the well walls. It is also engineered for safety and includes a built in ladder for easy escape.

Lisa was anxious to get her walls fixed up after noticing her basement walls were beginning to crack so she gave Ayers a call. After our crew conducted a free inspection it was settled that she needed CarbonArmor. CarbonArmor is a wall reinforcing system that is made of carbon fiber straps that are secured to the wall, preventing it from shifting any further. This system can easily be concealed if she wants a more finished, sleek look as well. Lisa was glad she got professional help so her home's support wasn't at stake!

Harvey was getting a small amount of water and moisture in his basement through some cracks in the foundation. He wanted all of the problems fixed and called us to see about his options. We used the SaniDry XP dehumidifier to continuously blow dry air throughout the basement to eliminate the moisture and humidity as well as filtering the air. For the cracks, we used CarbonArmor which installs quickly and does not impact future basement wall finishing. It is made up of flexible carbon fabric straps that are attached to the wall with a high strength resin. Lastly, we installed the Basement to Beautiful Insulated Wall Panels. These prepare your wall for finished wall paneling and prevent cold spots in your basement.

Jim's home had stone basement walls, and he worried that the voids between the stones would allow moisture entry. He needed the problem resolved quickly, so he called Ayers for assistance. Our crew of experts stopped by his home to examine the space and recommend a solution. The team suggested Shotcrete, a solution that applies a concrete or mortar wet spray through a high-pressure hose to fill a form or repair damaged surfaces. Jim is happy with the final product!
