Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Bill was having troubles with some water in his basement. Water was getting in from the floors and walls but he did not have standing water. He called us for a solution to dry basment floors. We installed the WaterGuard to make sure that the water was able to drain out of the basment. WaterGuard is a French drain system that is installed above the foundation but under the floor to keep it out of the zone where drains can clog. This system collects water that seeps into the basement and drains it to the sump pump. This is an effective waterproofing solution for the basement in your home. 

The homeowners had a little bit of water coming into their basement through the crack where the floor and the wall meet. It was not a ton of water, but they decided to get it checked and fixed anyway. The homeowners decision to waterproof their basement at the first sign of the water getting into their home only saved them time and money in the end. The problem won't resolve itself, it will only get worse so it is best to solve the problem right when it starts to happen. 

Our team also installed the SuperSump sump pump system. The SuperSump is a full featured system containing all the best components available. It includes the SuperLiner, which is an airtight lid that looks more attractive, keeps pests out and eliminates safety hazard of an open sump pump. It has a floor drain in case an unforeseen accident puts water on your basement floor. It includes a WaterWatch Alarm, which alerts you if the water level rises above the sump pump intake. It has a cast-iron pump to prevent overheating and burnout. It has a CleanPump pump stand that elevates the sump pump to prevent clogging.  It has a check valve to prevent pumped water from re-entering.  Lastly, it has an improved float valve to ensure long term performance.

To waterproof the homeowners basement our professional team installed our WaterGuard long lasting interior perimeter drainage system. The WaterGuard system sits on the top of the footing in order to prevent clogging from mud or other debris. The system works by capturing water seepage from the floors and walls before it has a chance to damage your basement. Once the water is trapped in the drain it is immediately sent to the sump pump. The sump pump then removes the water from the home keeping your basement clean and dry.

This East Lansing homeowner had a cracked foundation in the basement that had water coming in through the middle of the basement slab. We installed the WaterGuard system. This system is a drain that is installed under the floor but above the foundation so that the drain wont clog. It collects the water the comes into the basement and drains it to the sump pump to keep the basement dry. 

Tom and Susan had some sunken concerte on the back porch. They wanted a fix for the uneven concrete. We installed PolyLevel foam to bring the concrete back to the original positiion. PolyLevel is an injectable light weight foam that is strong and durable. The foam is waterproof and stable so it won't wash away or react with the soil. Lastly, PolyLevel has a curing time of only 15 minutes!
