Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Ryan recently bought this East Lansing home and noticed that there were some water issues in the basement. The basement was partically finished so the homeowner had to rip up the carpet and take down some drywall since it was damaged but they also needed to find where the water was coming from. We installed WaterGuard for him which is a French drain system that collects water that seeps into the home and drains it to the sump pump where it will be drained outside the home. This system is installed under the floor but above the foundation to keep it out of the "mud zone" so that the drain won't clog.

Deshauna was having foundational work done with Ayers. Our foreman Evan was able to do a full assessment of the home and treated all areas, not just the obvious. When Ayers works on a crawl space we plan on making sure its as safe as our foundations. That means lining the interior with an antimicrobial surface protector called CleanSpace. Ayers uses CleanSpace in all its crawl spaces to ensure our customers don't have repeat visits from contractors.

Deshauna moved into a new home and realized her crawl space was not in the best shape. Not to mention it was damp and humid. She decided to call Ayers to find a solution. After an appointment with an Ayers specialist, she decided to install CleanSpace. CleanSpace utilizes a heavy, durable plastic liner that lines the entirety of the crawlspace. This system creates a vapor barrier that stops moisture from entering the crawlspace. Once installed, Deshauna's crawl space not only looks better, but it will also function better! 

This East Lansing homeowner has about an inch of standing water in the basement.He had a drain system that was old and not working properly so it would flood during rain. We installed the TripleSafe sump pump system for him. This sump pump provides 3 levels of protection in case of pump malfunction or a power outage. We also installed the IceGuard Discharge Line System. In the winter, water in the discharge line can freeze which causes back ups that could lead to flooding. With the IceGuard, the water has a secondary escape route through the slotted openings in the drain pipe. This ensures that any water your sump pump is removing from your basement is safely cleared away outside your home, preventing any backed up or frozen lines.

Jeff was in the middle of trying to sell his Okemos home but has serious water intrusion issues in his crawl space. His home was 70 years old but the crawl space was an addition. During rain storms, one corner of the crawl space had water pouring in and flooding the space. We installed our complete French drain perimeter system called WaterGuard which captures instrusive water and channels it to the newly installed sump pump. We applied drainage matting to the dirt floor to capture any other water that may enter the space and then applied a waterproof, antimicrobial plastic liner called CleanSpace to the floors and wall of the crawl space. Home owners also opt to add a dehumidifier to their crawl space to control all moisture.
