Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

A family in Cassoplis, MI began to notice their energy bills going up and thought it was because of their unkept crawl sapce. After receiving their call, we arrived at the house and found the problems that were causing the family issues. First, there were small gaps between tiny seams and cracks in the wall that air flow was passing through. Spray foam insulation was used to seal up those hard to reach places that traditional fiberglass cover could not reach.  Next, we protected the entire crawl space with CleanSpace. CleanSpace is our vapor liner used to keep moisture and mold out of a crawl space area and can be seen in the after picture below as the white, durable liner. The final touch on this project was the instullation of SilverGlo. These are insulation wall panels that are used to keep the crawl space dry, the house warm, and the energy bills low. 

Heavy water intrusion caused Joyce's crawl space to flood. She called our team and we installed CleanSpace, a plastic sheet material used as a vapor barrier. CleanSpace restricts all moisture, outside air, and pests from entering your crawl space. Not only does this system create an energy-efficient crawl space, but it also gives your crawl space a clean finish. This material will be applied to your floors and walls to create a sleek look and an uninterrupted barrier. 

Leslie’s third-generation home on Diamond Lake was beautiful, but cold floors and high heating bills made winters unbearable. Freezing air was seeping through her uninsulated crawl space, making it harder to keep the home warm. Ayers installed CleanSpace® vapor barrier and rim joist insulation to seal out the cold and lock in warmth. Now, Leslie and her family can enjoy cozy floors, lower energy bills, and a more comfortable home all winter long.

David's floor was freezing since the weather changed, and he couldn't stand dealing with cold feet. He needed the issue resolved, so he researched his options and called Ayers for help. Our professionals visited his home to evaluate and realized the vents in his crawl space allowed cold air underneath his house. They installed the CleanSpace vapor barrier, a highly durable and antimicrobial-lined material. CleanSpace deters moisture and cold air entry and consequently prevents cold feet. David loves his warm floor!

The homeowner's crawlspace was a mix of dirt and concrete floors, contributing to his home's high humidity levels and unpleasant odors. These issues stemmed from improper encapsulation, leading to moisture buildup and poor air quality. To address the humidity and odor problem, Ayers encapsulated the crawlspaces by installing a vapor barrier system on the walls and floors. The joists were insulated to protect against moisture, and drainage matting was placed to help manage water under the vapor barrier. A dehumidifier system (Sanidry) was connected to the existing sump pump to control the humidity. This approach effectively reduced the moisture and improved air quality in Larry’s basement, solving the issues he was previously facing
