Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Our friend in Granger, IN began experiencing water seepage through the poured walls in her crawlspace. She grew increasingly concerned when she noticed several of the wood floor supports under her home were beginning to rot. She needed professional help, and we came to her rescue!

After diagnosing her crawlspace needs, we installed our patented CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system in the crawlspace. The CleanSpace encapsulation product is a 20mm thick plastic lining that entirely seals off the crawl space from the harsh elements below. To supplement the CleanSpace system we installed the SaniDry Sedona, a high-performance dehumidifier and filtration system. In Nina’s crawlspace, the Sedona will help prevent mold and reduce musty odors, giving her dry healthy air and total comfort. With this encapsulation system in place, Nina’s crawl space will now be a safe and dry space.

Matt, our friend in Granger, IN began noticing that the seawall behind his home was progressively bowing toward the lake. He was growing increasingly concerned that the wall was eventually going to end up falling into the lake. Seeking professional help, Matt called us! We rushed to the rescue and implemented a plan to straighten Matt’s seawall using a series of 17 wall anchors. Wall anchors are perfect for returning a wall back to its original position and reinforcing it. We stabilize the wall with a steel rod that runs from the wall anchor to an anchor placed on the other side of the wall. Once we place the plates we have permanently stabilized the wall. With this solution in place, Matt can rest assured knowing his seawall will eventually return to its original position.

While we were working at his neighbors’ home in Granger, IN Josh came over and introduced himself to our crew. He told us that he had also begun noticing the seawalls bow toward the lake was progressively getting worse. As his neighbor had, Josh began growing increasingly concerned that his portion of the co-owned seawall was eventually going to end up falling into the lake. He admitted he hadn’t known what repair professionals to call but when he watched us work on his neighbor Matt’s portion of the seawall he was impressed! Shortly after fixing Matt’s portion of the seawall, we came back to help Josh stabilize his half of the wall. We prescribed a solution consisting of a series of 16 wall anchors. Wall anchors are perfect for returning a wall back to its original position and reinforcing it. We stabilize the wall with a steel rod that runs from the wall anchor to an anchor placed on the other side of the wall. Once we place the plates we have permanently stabilized the wall. Between Josh and his neighbor Matt’s efforts, this entire giant seawall has been stabilized. Both of these gentlemen can rest assured knowing their co-owned seawall will eventually return to its original position.

A homeowner wanted our team to install an egress window and well in her home. Egress Windows provide a safe exit in case of emergency so they are required in finished basement living areas. In addition to having a safe exit in your basement, these windows provide lots of natural light. Lastly, most windows offer minimal protection against outside air entering the home due to poor insulation around the window. Egress windows will help ventilate your indoor areas and prevent unwanted allergens from entering your house.

Kimberly has a newer home with a mostly finished basement. Still, she has a small crawl space that has a dirt floor. Luckily, Kimberly hasn't experienced any water or moisture in her space but due to the dirt floor in her crawl space, she is susceptible to moisture. Moisture can cause foundation problems and annoyances such as discoloration. It can also play a huge role in allergens and humidity in the home decreasing overall home and air quality. As a preventative measure, she had our team come out to encapsulate the space and our team installed CleanSpace. CleanSpace is an uninterrupted vapor barrier designed to keep out any unwanted pests, moisture, and mold. This barrier restricts airflow and therefore makes controlling the temperature of the home much easier. CleanSpace is applied to the floors and walls and wrapped around pillars and piers carefully to ensure that the space looks clean and refreshed. Kimberly saved herself a lot of money by getting ahead of moisture.
