Greg's block foundation was cracking, causing the blocks to shift and break. After calling Ayers for a professional solution, we recommended our CleanSpace wall system. CleanSpace is a durable, white plastic liner that prevents water vapor from entering through these cracks in the walls. Not only will the space brighten substantially, he won't have to worry about water seeping through. The liner drains any leaks from the wall into a drainage system. Greg's basement appears more attractive and has protection from future wall moisture!
Water was leaking into the corners of this basement after heavy rainfalls. The basement already had 3 different floor drains and a sump pump, but they were no longer in use. To keep water out and prevent future puddles, the owners gave us a call.
Water that leaks into basement tends to flow down the walls and puddle at the floor and wall joint. For this exact reason, we install our perimeter drainage system at the foot of basement walls. In the after photo, you can see the gap for the WaterGuard system that permits water to enter the pipes. Since there were drains already in place, the customer asked to have the WaterGuard connected to the storm drain system for discharge. The crew was happy to oblige. Rainfalls will no longer mean the flooding of this basement.
This crawl space was under both home and exterior deck. When the owners noticed a large crack on the deck’s concrete slab, they began to get a little worried about the foundation. Our system design specialist went out for a visit and found out that the cinderblock foundation was actually starting to sink. With foundation went the floor joists in the crawl space, which was also the floor of the deck. In the after photo, you can see the solution our crew provided: the SmartJack system. The SmartJacks can be raised to whatever height levels out the floor joists above them, and they are also installed into the foundation floor to maintain that stability. No part of this crawl space or the structures that depend on it should sink again.
Cracking in several different places was occurring in Don’s driveway. So our team installed PolyLevel, a system designed to fix concrete slabs that have sunk. It uses a polyurethane foam that expands and has a high density to lift the concrete slabs back to their original level. It is a simple process 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.
After waterproofing their home, Patricia and Glen in Watervliet, MI, noticed their basement walls bowing due to foundation settlement. To restore stability, Ayers installed GeoLock® wall anchors, reinforcing the walls and preventing further movement. Now, their home near Paw Paw Lake is safer and structurally sound for years to come.
