Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Amy, who recently purchased her home in Lansing, MI began experiencing water seepage through the stone walls in her crawlspace. She grew extremely concerned and called us to seek professional help. 

We installed our patented CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system in Amy’s crawlspace. The CleanSpace encapsulation product is a 20mm thick plastic lining that completely seals off the crawl space from the elements below. With this encapsulation system in place, Amy must no longer worry about water or cold air entering her crawl space.

Our nearby friend Larry from Lansing, MI was having issues with the wall in his basement bowing outward. With on-going observation, he could tell the wall was continuing to move. Larry became extremely frightened about the walls future and called us in search of professional help. We came to his home and created a solution consisting of five wall anchors. Wall anchors are perfect for returning a wall back to its original position and reinforcing the entire foundation. We stabilized the home with a steel rod that runs from the wall anchor to an anchor placed in the exterior of the home. Once we placed the plates, we had permanently stabilized his basement. With this solution in place, Larry can remain calm knowing his wall will eventually return to its original position.

Dori was having water issues in the basement when the rain was really heavy. The water is coming in from the walls and she didn't know how to stop it. We installed the WaterGuard System which is a French drain that is installed under the floor and collects water that is seeping in. The water collected in the drain is then sent to the sump pump. We also installed the TripleSafe Sump Pump System which provides 3 levels of protection for the homeowners basement. The water that is collects/sent to the sump pump is then dischraged outside the home and keeps the water out!

William noticed water pooling on his basement floor and was sick of running around with towels and a mop. After researching his options online, he called Ayers to learn about our waterproofing solutions. Our specialists visited his home and evaluated his basement to recommend a solution. They decided to install the TripleSafe sump pump, which is designed to react to pump failure, by including two primary pumps and a battery-powered backup in case of power outages. William is happy with his dry basement!

Janice noticed cracks in her crawl space floors and walls. She was concerned about long-term structural damage, so she called Ayers. Our specialists visited her home and recommended the installation of Supportworks GeoLock wall anchors. These are heavy-duty, galvanized earth anchors engineered to be grounded in solid, undisturbed soil. The anchors are connected by a steel rod to provide clamping pressure, stabilizing the wall. Janice is happy to have a permanently stabilized crawl space!
