Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Randy had a slanted living room floor, so he tried a store-bought floor jack and exhausted his options in the "DIY" department. His previous attempts to fix the issue didn't work, so he researched his options and called Ayers for help. Our specialists visited his home and recommended installing the SmartJacks supplemental support system. SmartJacks are a collection of floor jacks, zinc plated and hot-dipped in galvanized steel to provide durability. Each base is implanted two feet deep to reduce load-bearing stress and ensure longevity. Randy is happy with his level floor!

A crack emanating from a window in this home's foundation was the final obstacle to the pending sale of the house. When we get calls from people in the middle of a sale like this, we try to turn it around as quickly as possible. Luckily, we were able to send out both our System Design Specialist and production crew in short order, and from the time our customer called to the time the project was finished was six days.

A FlexiSpan repair took care of the crack, which the owners had tried to repair themselves to no avail.

A call about a wet basement will always grab our attention. This homeowner was dealing with pooling on her floor. The moisture from the ground outside found a way into the basement through several cracks in the walls. You can see in the during/after shot where the water was pooling under the wood panels.

The best way to fight leaky basement walls is with a drainage system. These systems run around the entire perimeter of the basement and any obstacles. Water is most likely to seep down the walls and collect in the joints where floor and wall meet, so the pipes are also placed there. In the case of monolithic or thick floor, where jackhammering could result in a long and messy installation, we use the DryTrak system. Unlike our other systems, DryTrak piping is installed above the floor. The piping system will direct water to the homeowner’s new Super Sump and deposit the water outside. And just like that, her wet basement is a thing of the past!

The homeowner called us when he noticed that the support beams in his crawl space looked old and rotted. He wanted a solution before the problem got worse. We installed the SmartJack Crawl Space Support System to provide a permanent solution to the problem. The system is made of up steel beams that are attached to the floor joists and a sturdy base on the ground. This will stabilize the floor and take the pressure off the old support beams.

Pipes were freezing in Bill’s crawl space due to poor insulation. So he called our team asking for insulation options for his crawl space. We installed CleanSpace, a plastic sheet material used as a vapor barrier to restrict all moisture, outside air, and pests from entering your crawl space. CleanSpace creates an energy-efficient crawl space and is a great insulation option. It will keep the outside air out and the inside air in so Bill will no longer need to worry about his pipes freezing.
