Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Sue already encapsulated her crawl space, although there were minor water seepage issues to address. She called Ayers to recommend waterproofing systems. Our crew decided to install our SuperSump Plus and SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. The SuperSump is a horsepower pump designed to handle the occasional water leaks she experienced down there. It can pump 2,200 gallons of water an hour at an 8-foot head. SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier is the world's most efficient, highest-performing dehumidifier and filtration system. By keeping the air dry and clean, mold and musty odors will no longer infest Sue's crawl space. The frustrating water intrusion is finally taken care of!

When our customers called, they had two major problems with their damp crawl space: a small entrance, and open vents.

As we mentioned last week, we can make our way into even the smallest of crawl spaces. The vents were taken care of with some CleanSpace vent covers after we encapsulated the entire space with the CleanSpace vapor barrier system.

Our customer called having tried to solve a basement water problem herself, only to have it come back. We installed a full perimeter of WaterGuard below-floor drain, and solved one of the biggest problems, the inefficient sump pump, by replacing it with a SuperSump. (Shown here is the sump installed midway through the WaterGuard process - we promise we'll replace your floor).

Most crawlspace doors are made of organic wood that deteriorates over time -- not the patented EverLast Door from Ayers. We make the EverLast crawl space doors with 1/2 inch plastic that will never rot away or need painting. They also seal airtight to a crawlspace's opening, disallowing water to enter. This home's crawlspace can now be used for storage without the worry of water entering through its door. 

Home improvements can be big or small, in this case, egress windows are a small part of a home but can provide a lot of benefits.  For home safety, these larger egress windows are able to provide an escape route for people living in the basement.  This is actually standard home code if there is a person living in the basement.  Egress windows also provide a much more clean and pleasing area to look at.  There is no downside to having a new egress window become a part of your home!
