Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Ronald was in the process of finishing his basement. The last step was adding an egress window to make the space more inviting. He called Ayers to begin this installation. Our egress windows are much larger than the average basement window. This addition will brighten the room and allow more fresh air to circulate. The window provides a safe exit option for emergencies that may arise. With this new window, the dark, gloomy feel of the basement is no longer an issue!

Tomas had issues with the wooden support structures in his crawl space, so he called Ayers. He needed a more substantial support system, so we had our crew inspect the area to determine the best replacement. Our System Design Specialists recommended our SmartJacks. This solution will effectively support sagging beams and floor joists or provide supplemental column support where an existing column and pier foundation has settled. This solution utilizes a strong, steel foundation base installed in the subfloor for the home to sit on. The steel columns are attached to this base and can be extended in the future. We installed a steel supplemental support beam above the columns for additional help. Tomas was happy with the new support system that keeps his home stable and safe!

A leak with no drainage system leads to standing water, which leads to mold and a host of other problems.

Our customer called because her basement's water problems had led to ruined walls and carpet, as well as mold. We got rid of the carpet and walls, applied a product to eliminate the mold, and installed a TripleSafe sump pump and WaterGuard drain system around the perimeter of the basement. 

When we got a call from the people at Irving Township Hall that their sidewalk was sinking last fall, we knew we had to work quickly. Election day was coming, and that meant lots of foot traffic that had to have a safe passage around the hall.

Luckily, PolyLEVEL has a very short turnaround and curing time, so we were able to get out there and raise the sinking sidewalk in plenty of time for the rush.

For this home we worked with the person selling their house, the person buying the house, and the realtor managing the entire deal. It can sometimes be tricky to please everyone in situations like this, but luckily everyone involved was great and just wanted the problem fixed.

Tthe problem in this case was a bowing basement wall. Note in the before picture that the wall greatly diverges from the level. This can lead to leaking wall cracks and, ultimately, a wall collapse. But by installing PowerBraces to stabilize and, hopefully, eventually straighten the wall, everyone involved in the house's sale can feel confident that the basement is safe.
