Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Glenn was looking to finish her basement so she could put a bedroom down there. For the finishing touches she wanted to replace the standard window she currently had. After talking to our professionals at Ayers we let her know that our Egress Window would look perfect in her basement. Egress Windows are larger which opens up the space more, making it more inviting. The main benefit being it offers a safe escape route in emergency situations and is waterproof so she won't have to worry about water seeping in during heavy rains. Glenn was so thrilled with the final results!

Kris's home was built in the early 1900s and the basement had an unprotected dirt floor. He noticed water puddles forming in the basement after the snow melted. He called up Ayers for a professional waterproofing job. After we inspected his basement, we determined our CleanSpace Wall System and TripleSafe Sump Pump System would work best. Our CleanSpace Wall System uses a poly sheet material to cover the basement foundation walls and provide a vapor barrier. We placed CleanSpace on the floor as well to separate his home from the moist ground so this excess moisture wouldn't lead to mold or bacteria. It is also made from a thick, waterproof material to prevent puddles. We even added our TripleSafe Sump Pump System to ensure water stays off his floor with this three-pump system. Kris was thrilled to get the much needed protection for his home!

Phil came to us to waterproof his home and keep it dry. This home has been in his family for 70 years and he wants to keep it intact for many more years to come. There was water all over the basement and he knew the home would not last if the problem was not addressed. We installed the WaterGuard Below Floor Drain to collect water that leaks in and send it to the sump pump to be expelled outside the home. We also installed the SuperSump Plus to keep the water out of the basement. This sump pump is great if there is occasional water issues and will keep the basement dry for extended periods of time even in cases of heavy water intrusion! 

Jennifer was in desperate need of a new waterproofing system that would eliminate the water leaks arising in her basement. After giving Ayers a call we conducted a free inspection of her home. Our System Design Specialists then determined our WaterGuard System and TripleSafe Sump Pump System would solve her issues. The WaterGuard is a subfloor drainage system installed along the perimeter of the basement meant to collect any water leaking through the walls. We conceal this system with concrete and hook it to the sump pump for the water to be directed. Next, we installed TripleSafe, a three-pump system that fits in one durable liner. Each pump is there to ensure Jennifer's basement stays dry!

Bryant had ongoing issues with his bowing basement walls and realized he could no longer ignore the evident damage to his walls. You could see the stair step crack on the inside and outside of his home. These cracks follow the mortar lines in a block wall as pressure on the wall increases. Stair step cracks are dangerous because they cover a wide area. This wall was well on its way to collapse without a repair solution. We used CarbonArmor® to stabilize his basement walls. CarbonArmor is a wall reinforcing system with straps made from a fiber-reinforced polymer that is ten times stronger than steel. CarbonArmor® stabilized Bryant's walls and will now protect them from future bowing.
