Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Trista and Chris of Decatur, MI had dealt with basement water issues for years, but worsening conditions pushed them to take action. After a free inspection from Ayers Basement Systems, they chose a customized waterproofing solution featuring the TripleSafe™ sump pump and WaterGuard® system. Now, they’re on their way to enjoying a dry, functional space for their family once again.

Homeowners in Grand Junction, MI wanted a forever solution to keep their basement dry. Our system design specialist knew a WaterGuard system would do the trick and our crew worked quickly to make it happen. This system is installed under the basement floor and works to prevent water from puddling by directing any moisture into the track system. Once the system is installed, concrete is poured back over making this a discrete, hidden, and effective system.

Lynn and her siblings inherited their father's home and hoped to sell it in the near future, however, they were going to have trouble doing so until a bowed foundation wall in the basement was repaired. The horizontal crack in the wall is evidence of a problem that has evolved and grown worse over time. Our crew reinforced the floor joists above and put a series of 6 PowerBraces in place along the wall. The PowerBraces are a zinc-coated steel I-Beam that extend from the floor to the ceiling joist. They prevent the wall from bowing any further and help evenly support the weight of the home above. Another great feature is a unique tightening system at the top of the brace that allows the wall to possibly be straightened and brought back to its original position in time. The home can now be sold as any perspective buyers can rest easy knowing that a permanent fix is in place.

Kristine called our team because she was experiencing settlement issues in her home. Our team installed SmartJack to stop her sagging floors. Due to the moisture and soils in your crawl space, floors above crawl spaces are vulnerable. The SmartJack system is a permanent fix to these issues and provides immediate stabilization. It uses steel columns, threaded rods and a solid base to address any issues your crawl space may introduce to your floors.

Two customers had musty odors coming into their home from their crawl space. So they called our team and we installed CleanSpace, an uninterrupted vapor barrier. This material is applied to the walls and floor of your crawl space. It restricts all moisture, outside air, and pests from entering your crawl space. This system creates an energy-efficient crawl space, and it also gives your crawl space a clean finish.
