Ayers Protects Kalamazoo, MI Basement Before Flooding

Duane had no sump pump in his Kalamazoo, MI basement and had recently noticed that one of the walls was a bit damp. He called Ayers for an inspection and our crew determined that Duane would need WaterGuard, the TripleSafe sump pump, and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to correct the water intrusion. Duane also requested our BrightWall paneling to make the basement look nice. 

WaterGuard is a sub-floor waterproofing system that collects water that leaks through the walls and keeps dirt away from the foundation. It is installed along the perimeter of the basement and on top of the footing of the foundation. Concrete is poured on top and regular flooring can be placed on top. The TripleSafe sump pump system utilizes three pumps in order to remove excess water from the basement. The second and third pumps are in case of emergencies so the basement can remain dry, even when the power goes out. The SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier automatically removes up to 100 pints of water a day from the air in the home’s basement. This system circulates the now dry air through the basement and automatically removes the leftover water so you don’t have to.   

Duane was thrilled with the work done by Ayers to accurately correct his water intrusion in the basement. He was so happy to have caught the problem early before it could cause major damage. Before we were done with the installation, Duane requested BrightWall panels for the walls. BrightWall panels are the perfect solution for those who want to combine beauty and practicality in one. It is a rigid plastic covering that is completely waterproof and made of inorganic materials. This keeps the walls from becoming waterlogged and moldy like wood. The bright white panels reflect the light, maximizing lighting in the basement.
