Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

The customer had water coming into her 1890s home from the northwest corner, with up to half an inch of standing water at times. Concerned about the old stone foundation, she requested a full inspection. Utilizing our full perimeter waterproofing system and our Triplesafe Sump Pump, this basement can now be dry and no longer be concerned about water intrusion.

Walt noticed his driveway was becoming more and more uneven by the day. He decided to take action and call Ayers for our concrete repair expertise. Our knowledgeable professionals inspected the driveway and determined our PolyLevel system, paired with our NexusPro joint sealant, would smooth this problem area. PolyLevel uses high-density, lightweight, structural-grade polymers to level these uneven concrete slabs. This solution will lift the concrete, bringing it back to its original position much faster and less costly than remodeling the entire driveway. Walt will be able to drive on it again in 15 minutes. Our crew sealed the cracks in his driveway with NexusPro joint sealant, minimizing future water infiltration. Walt is relieved and thrilled with the stunning results!

The owners of this Decatur, MI rental home started to notice moisture in the walls and throughout the carpet in this room. They did what they could to dry out the space, including running a dehumidifier, but nothing worked. Our team came and revealed that the moisture had indeed done some damage— causing mold and mildew to grow behind the drywall. The best option to combat this was to replace the drywall along the perimeter of the room and replace it with EverLast wall panels. These cement boards have a washable, vinyl finish and are more resistant to water than traditional drywall. ThermalDry tiles, which are the only inorganic subfloors resilient to water and mold, were then installed making this room dry and mold-free. 

Barb's home was experiencing some significant foundation settlement issues. Cracks in the foundation walls were clear around several sides of the home. One of the places where it was most evident was right in the front of the house. Even the vinyl siding above the crack was beginning to buckle. Our foundation team came in and installed a series of piers around the home to help support and lift the home back into position. Helical piers were the main tool used. To install helical peirs, we excavate a small hole around the outside of the home to expose the home's footer. We then drill these long steel piering shafts into the ground until they reach competent soil that can reliably support the weight of the home. In many cases, they are even able to lift the foundation back into its original position. We then fill the excavated area back in with as minimal damage to the lawn as possible. This fix is permanent and incredibly reliable. Already, the front of Barb's home looks a lot better!

Melinda's crawl space needed insulated so she called our team. We installed SilverGlo, a set of waterproof foam panels. This panels are used on the walls of your crawl space in order to insulate it. Uninsulated crawl spaces cost you money each year by increasing your heating and cooling bills. SilverGlo blocks all moisture and is made of inorganic material which prevents mold, rot or mildew from forming. Overall, it will keep your crawl space dry and insulated which will save you lots of money over the years.
