Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Jake needed to have his crawl space properly encapsulated to protect it from the outside elements. He trusted Ayer's crawl space repair experts, so he gave us a call. We sent a crew to his home for a free inspection so we could make the best recommendations. Our suggestion was to have our professionals install CleanSpace. The advantages of CleanSpace are plentiful. This product consists of a thick plastic liner with a vapor barrier that prevents the buildup of moisture. When moisture builds up in your crawl space, it allows mold and bacteria to thrive. The liner is placed along the crawl space floor and walls, creating an airtight seal that protects it from the outside air. Now Jake won't have to worry about his crawl space welcoming uninvited outside guests!

Lawrence and Susan were feeling as if their home was being split in half because both ends of the home were sinking. The sinking was causing cracks in the basement walls and some cracks in the drywall on the main floor as well. They wanted to make this a permanent home once they retire so they knew the issues needed to be fixed. We had just the solution to stabilize the home and lift it back up! We used Push Piers because the soil conditions of this home were unknown so it was the best option for a permanent solution. 

Marc was hoping to get an Egress Window installed in his finished basement for the finishing touch and to make it a legal bedroom. He saw that Ayers sells Egress Windows and decided to set up an appointment with us.

Egress Windows are great for basements since they are larger and allow for a safe exit option in emergency situations. This is an especially important feature if someone will be living down there. This window will open up the room and make it more inviting. More natural light and fresh air will fill the space as well. These windows are waterproof as well so Marc won't have to worry about water leaking in during heavy rainfalls.

Marc was happy with the result and the finished look the Egress Window gave his basement!

We responded to an inquiry from Guy, a homeowner looking for better foundation support. He realized the floors were sagging and the wooden support structures were failing. Guy called Ayers for our foundation repair solutions. Our crew inspected his basement's current support situation and determined SmartJacks would provide the appropriate support required. SmartJacks will not rot or warp like the wooden support beams Guy previously had. The system was installed by attaching steel support beams to the floor joists. They rest on a sturdy base in the subfloor. Once the support columns were installed, the crew adjusted them to raise the floors to a level position. Guy is satisfied with the results now that he has a permanent solution to support his home's foundation!

Mark noticed the slant in his living room floor was deepening and wasn't sure how to fix it. After researching his options, he called Ayers for help, and we sent our specialists to his home. After evaluating the space, they recommended installing the SmartJacks supplemental support system. SmartJacks are floor jacks built to last, hot-dipped in galvanized steel, and zinc-plated. Each base is also implanted two feet below the surface to reduce load-bearing stress. Mark loves the new feel of his living room!
