Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Lucas from Grass Lake, MI was having water issues in his basement. His sump pump had been running full time the entire fall, and water was beginning to seep through the floor around where the sump pump was. In order to stop water from seeping in and preventing further damage, we decided to install our TripeSafe Sump Pump.

TripleSafe has three sump pumps that all fit into one liner. This is important because three pumps won’t become overwhelmed with higher pumping demands like a single pump would. Also, if the power goes out in your home, the third pump serves as a battery-operated backup, meaning that it will take care of any business that needs to be handled until the power comes back on. Lucas' old sump pump simply couldn't handle all of the water that was coming in, but with TripleSafe, no amount of water is ever too much for this beast.

In terms of waterproofing your basement, there simply isn't a superior option to our TripleSafe Sump Pump.

This Grass Lake home had a musty smell coming from the crawl space and the owner has respiratory issues making her worry that there was mold in her home. When we had our initial inspection, we found that the main beam in the crawl space was rotted and broken. To support the floors, we installed a supplemental beam and SmartJacks. We then installed the CleanSpace Liner to encapsulate the crawl space and keep it clean. Lastly, we used the SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to keep the space dry and to filter mold spores and other particles. 

Grayson had a cracked and settling concrete porch that he wanted to have fixed before he built a deck over it. He wanted to make sure it did not hold water under the deck so it was important to have it lifted. We used PolyLevel to raise the concrete back up to the original level and NexusPro to seal the cracks. PolyLevel is a waterproof and stable foam where NexusPro is a sealant made to withstand harsh weather. Both dry in a fraction of the time compared to other solutions so the process is not an inconvenience. 

Bernie and Cathleen have lived in the house for the past 15 years and have finished off the basement over that time. This year they found water leaking in from the north wall. They want to stop that leakage as they are not sure if they are staying or not long term. They may refinish the basement, as all the kids are now grown and moved out. Wanting a plan of action that was comprehensive and fairly priced, they contacted Ayers to come to inspect the area. Our Foreman Bruce discussed the issues and concerns the couple had with them and drafted a solution plan that everyone agreed upon.

The current sump system of the home was working well so Bruce and his team installed a WaterGuard system to help control the extra water.

WaterGuard is a system of channels installed under the foundational floor, out of sight, and starts at the sump pump, directing any water the pump cannot control and leading it far away from the home. 

Mike was on the hunt to replace his previous sump pump system that was not doing the trick anymore. He saw that Ayers had some great solutions for this stressful issue so he made the call. A free inspection was then conducted and our System Design Specialists determined that our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, IceGuard, and our LawnScape Outlet would work best for his situation.

The TripleSafe offers triple protection with its three pumps that fit in one durable liner that will help keep water out of Mike's basement. The first pump will do most of this work, while the second is there for the rare case that the first fails or needs backup, and the last pump is there in case his power goes out since it is battery-operated. We also installed IceGuard outside his home to protect his exterior discharge lines from harsh weather that could cause the lines to freeze or clog. Finally, we installed our LawnScape Outlet to the end of this exterior discharge line which will allow downspout water to escape.

Now that Mike has a sufficient waterproofing system, he doesn't have to stress about water damage in his home!
