Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Rodney's home was in the process of being built and as part of that process, he was hoping to get a waterproofing system to keep his home dry. He trusted Ayers to do the job right, so he gave us a call. We set up a time for a free inspection and from there, our crew determined our WaterGuard System combined with our TrenchDrain would work great. The WaterGuard System is a subfloor drainage system that will collect water seeping in and direct the leaks to the sump pump. This is placed along the perimeter of the basement and on top of the footing of the foundation to prevent any clogging issues. Then we installed our TrenchDrain which is perfect for doorway entrances where water leaks arise. This product consists of a grated opening on top of a basement drainage pipe installed in the subfloor. Any water that passes over the system will fall through the grated openings and be directed to the sump pump. Rodney was satisfied with these waterproofing systems that keep his new home well-protected!

Susan had a musty smell coming through the floors and knew something wasn't right. She decided to call Ayers, so we had a crew head over to the home for a free inspection of the problem area. From the inspection, our experts determined the smell was coming from the crawl space because she lacked proper encapsulation. CleanSpace will take care of this issue since this is a thick, waterproof plastic liner that has a vapor barrier. The barrier prevents the buildup of moisture that causes the musty smell of bacteria or mold. Regular tarps will not hold up or prevent mold without this vapor barrier CleanSpace utilizes. Our EverLast Door was also installed to keep outside air or critters out of the crawl space with its water seal. Now Susan can remain worry-free of these nasty smells!

We got a call about a home in Brooklyn, MI lacking proper encapsulation in the crawl space which was causing the home to be cold and drafty. We had a team of our experts head over to the home to give the homeowner Rose a proper solution. After inspecting her crawl space, we determined that our CleanSpace and SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier would solve her issues. CleanSpace is a plastic, waterproof liner that utilizes a vapor barrier that defends against mold or bacteria growth. It is placed on the crawl space floor to cover the whole area and protect it from the dirt ground's moisture. SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier will clean and dry the air much more efficiently than your typical dehumidifier. Now Rose can be confident with the permanent protection these crawl space solutions provide!

Robert's concerns grew when the water damage in his basement appeared more noticeable. He called Ayers for our years of experience in waterproofing solutions. Our system design specialists inspected the water intrusion and determined our WaterGuard system would resolve these issues. This interior draiange system rests in the subfloor of the basement below the wall. This placement ensures water that seeps through is collected and directed to the sump pump rather than the floor. We pour concrete over the drain to conceal it. Robert is grateful for his permanent solution!

When your crawl space is only 36" high, you need those 36" to be as well kept as possible. It's difficult for you OR your hired contractors to get around in there (although we've worked in crawl spaces much smaller) so it's good to get things in order once and be confident they'll stay that way.

That's what we did here by installing the CleanSpace system with drainage matting and SilverGlo wall insulation. Now the crawl space is clean and dry and will stay that way.
