Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Cindy wanted to install an egress window in her basement. She contacted our team at Ayers Basement Systems to have the window installed! An inspection determined where the window would go and what Cindy wanted to be installed. Lastly, the Ayers crew got to work with the installation! Cindy was thrilled with how the project turned out!

Elsa and John were looking to repair the storage room inside their home. The couple noticed a breeze from the room, along with foundation cracks. After contacting us at Ayers Basement Systems, an inspection determined Shotcrete would be best for the problem. The couple decided to proceed with the installation, and the crew at Ayers got to work. Shotcrete is a process where rebar is placed on the wall, and then a form of concrete is sprayed onto the wall. This system stabilized the foundation walls and saved Elsa and John from their worries!

After purchasing a home, Mario noticed the water was seeping into his crawl space. He contacted us at Ayers Basement Systems, and after an inspection, the team determined water was seeping through the areas in the foundation. After talking with the team, Mario opted to install the CleanSpace system. CleanSpace utilizes a heavy-duty plastic liner that creates a vapor barrier preventing moisture from seeping into the space. Mario was thrilled with the job; his crawl space looked great, and water was no longer an issue!

Bill wanted to get his crawl space encapsulated but was not sure what to expect. He called us to get an estimate and liked what we had to say. We installed Drainage Matting, CleanSpace Crawl Space Vapor Barrier, the TripleSafe sump pump and the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. The matting had raised dimples in it so that if water did get in, there would be channels for it to flow through and could be directed to the sump pump. The vapor barrier  is just want it sounds like, it keeps pests, humidity, and water vapor out of the crawl space to keep it dry. The liner also has an additive that prevents mold growth so the home and structure is protected. The TripleSafe has three layers of protection (2 pumps and a back up battery) to keep the area dry even in cases of a pump failure or a power outage. Lastly as an added protection we  installed the SaniDry Sedona. This dehumidifier blows dry air throughout the space to make sure it remains dry (the collected water is sent to the sump pump to be expelled out of the home) and it filters the air so you can breathe easy!

Janet and Mark have lived in this house since '95. Janet grew up in this house with her older sibling so she technically has lived there her entire life. The home was built in 1880 and they plan on staying there for at least five more years. She noticed changes in the center support and that it had started to become compromised.  After contacting Ayers, our foreman Evan was able to inspect the area and noticed the worst was a large washout under the wall that also caused the mortar to decay heavily.

Evan and his team decided to put two smart jacks, one on each side of the doorway to reintroduce support into the structure. 

SmartJacks are steel beams vertically placed at strategic points of the rim joist and are anchored into the basement floor with poured concrete. The tops are fixed with loadbearing joints that attach to the rim joist. The height of the Smartjack is adjusted till the system is applying constant pressure, this provides a permanent corrective force to the supportive framework of the home.
