Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Janice was hoping to put an end to the puddles of water that would form in her basement due to water intrusion so she decided to call Ayers. After our crew came out to her home to inspect the area, it was determined that she could use our WaterGuard System as well as our TripleSafe Sump Pump System. First with WaterGuard this is a drainage system placed below the concrete flooring in the basement along the perimeter to ensure water is collected here rather than going on the floor. It will be concealed with concrete and hooked to the TripleSafe Sump Pump we added next. With TripleSafe, this is a three pump system that fits in one sturdy liner that keeps water out. The last two pumps are there for backup and one is battery-operated for power outages. Janice was happy to have these troublesome puddles resolved!

When life threw unexpected water woes at a Kalamazoo homeowner's 20-year sanctuary, our mission was clear. Before: a dreary basement corner showcased telltale signs of groundwater seepage, the aftermath of a plumbing disaster revealed. Notice in the photo, the rotted wood and a worn-out patch of cement cried out for attention. After: enter fix, our SaniDry Sedona and CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, bringing back peace, dryness, and stability. As you can see, what was once a problematic corner turns into a showpiece of security and reliability. With us, it's not just about fixing problems—it's about restoring comfort and ensuring it lasts.

Amos' entire driveway was cracked and not level. He was nervous the cracks would get worse this winter and worried about someone tripping. He called Ayers, and after an inspection, our crew determined that PolyLevel and NexusPro would be the perfect solution for the driveway. 

The PolyLevel system is used to repair sinking concrete by drilling minuscule holes into the slab and filling them with foam. The foam raises the slab and fortifies it to make it last even longer. NexusPro is a sealant that fills the cracks in the concrete. It is extremely withstanding to harsh weather so it will remain flexible for years. 

Amos was overjoyed to be able to finally get this project out of the way. He no longer has to worry about his family and friends tripping on the way up to the house and can rest easy knowing he won't have to replace the whole driveway in a few years. 

A homeowner called in with a few issues going on in his basement. He had cracks on the wall and on the floor, that was allowing water to flow in. After calling other company to remove the water in his basement, he decided to call Ayers.

One of our System Design Specialist took a trip out to see the damage. After reviewing the problems, our System Design Specialist suggested our French Drain System was required to prevent and protect against rain entering the basement again. 

Our French Drain System consist of an effective perimeter drainage system. This system is installed underneath the flooring near the walls in a basement. Water that enters the home is caught by these pipes and run down to a sump pump. There, the sump pump will carry the water away from the home through a drainage pipe. This allows for a dry basement, all the time. 

Our system design specialist came up with a unique use of one of our products to help out this Grand Rapids, MI customer. The home had a long driveway that was mostly asphalt but turned to concrete just in front of the garage. A slope in the ground where the concrete and asphalt connected would regularly fill with rain after storms and the resulting standing water was starting to erode both pavements. Our TrenchDrain grated pipe system is usually used outside of doorways and entrances to catch water before it flows into the home, but to keep this driveway serviceable, our system design specialist drew up a plan for a TrenchDrain to be placed in the dip of the asphalt. As you can see in the after photo, the drain spans the length of the driveway and will capture water any water that builds up in the trench. Not pictured is the discharge line that was also installed and will lead the rain water to a distantly placed lawn outlet. Water build up won’t be a problem for this driveway again.
