Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Lowell has some issues with his home being cold and pipes freezing in the winter. He wanted to insulate his crawl space and seal it off from the outside to solve these problems. We first insulated the crawl space to help keep the cold air out and warm air in. We then laid down the CleanSpace Liner which is a thick durable liner which keeps water vapor, pests, mold, and humidity out of the area. 

A customer had flooding in his basement due to his sump pump system overflowing. So our team installed TripleSafe, a sump pump system that’s main goal is to keep your basement dry. This system provides ultimate protection against all basement leakage and any moisture problems. There are three pumps within this system including one battery powered pump. Therefore, it can handle the highest pumping demands. 

This Traverse City couple wants to finish their basement and add bedrooms for their kids. Before doing that, they knew that there were some projects that needed to be completed first - adding egress windows and encapsulating the crawl space. The egress windows allow for a safe exit in case of emergencies as well allowing more natural light into the area! For keeping the crawl space dry, we used Drainage Matting and the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier. Drainage Matting directs the flow of water, if any, to the sump pump and the CleanSpace keeps out water vapor. 

We installed an egress window in a basement that was being converted to a bedroom. In addition to making the space brighter and more inviting, it's a building code regulation that any living space must have two exits - and a standard basement window doesn't fit the bill.

The window in the before photo leads to a basement bedroom. After recently purchasing the home, the new owner requested our services to install a replacement window that would brighten up the room. The egress windows in the after photo do just that. As you can see when comparing the photos, the new window is much larger and lets in a lot more light. The window extends below the grade while the inorganic plastic well protects it from groundwater or other elements. Egress windows are the perfect way to compliment any basement bedroom.
