Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

CleanSpace does it again and makes a crawl space look 1000x better. It works as a vapor barrier to keep it dry, brightens it up and is sturdy enough to allow boxes to be stored on top. If you're having trouble with a flooded crawl space or just want to make it look more appealing we have you covered. 

The basement walls of this home in Lansing, MI had a few cracks in them. Not only were these cracks an eyesore, but they were also letting water in through them. To prevent this water from entering the basement and wreaking havoc, the homeowners decided to waterproof the space with WaterGuard and CleanSpace.

To collect water from the leaks in the walls, WaterGuard, a subfloor drainage system was installed. The specially designed piping is laid on top of the footing around the perimeter of the room. It collects the water and then reroutes it to a sump pump, which discharges the water away from the home. Since it doesn’t sit along the footing, it won’t get clogged with mud.

CleanSpace was the final touch in making over the cracked walls in the basement. Not only does it cover up unsightly cracks, but CleanSpace also provides a moisture barrier from the wall leaks allowing them to drain into the WaterGuard system. Additionally, CleanSpace is durable and is manufactured with an antimicrobial additive.

WaterGuard and CleanSpace work together to keep this basement dry and aesthetically pleasing!

In this 1941 home, its homeowner was worried about the collecting moisture taking place within his crawl space. After calling Ayers and having one of our system design specialists pay him a visit, we knew how to exactly waterproof and clean his crawl space! Thanks to our excellent production team, we installed Cleanspace drainage matting to help reduce moisture buildup, and Mold X to help eliminate any future mold growth.

Joan called about a wet area of her basement. It was just a small area a few feet in width that was seeing water coming in. With an existing sump pump the fix was quite simple. Along the wet wall, we installed our WaterGuard drainage system. This required a small portion of the drywall, about 2 feet up from the ground, to be removed. We then removed some of the concrete floor to reveal the home's footing. The drain was set in place right on the footing and conrete was replaced over top. WaterGuard will collect moisture from the walls and from the seam where the floor and walls meet. The drain is then tied into the sump pump system to allow for that moisture to be removed from the home. The drywall was replaced and now the basement is safe from the puddles that had been plaguing it for months.

This homeowner had cracking on a wall in their basement where it was starting to bow. We installed the PowerBrace Wall Repair System.

The PowerBrace system can stop any further damage and potentially straighten the wall. The system is made up of steel beams that are attached to joists above the wall with steel brackets. It doesn't involve any exterior excavation and installs quickly with minimal disruption to your basement space.
