Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

In Jackson, MI, a homeowner faced leaks from three windows and a wall pipe, causing puddles in their unfinished basement when it rained. Our team fixed these issues by installing BrightWall panels and a comprehensive drainage system. These solutions effectively stopped the leaks and ensured a dry, protected basement.

After the last rainfall, Maggie realized water was leaking into her basement and knew her old sump pump must have failed. She didn't know how to fix it, so she researched and called Ayers to learn about our waterproofing solutions. We sent our experts to her home to evaluate the issue, and they agreed the old pump had failed. They suggested and installed TripleSafe, a three-in-one system designed to prevent failure. TripleSafe includes a primary pump, a backup, and a third, battery-powered pump in case of power outages. Maggie feels much more prepared!

Mike knew the sump pump in his basement no longer worked and needed to be replaced. After the last storm, he found water leaking into his basement and called Ayers to learn about waterproofing solutions. We sent our crew of experts to his home to assess the situation. They decided the best replacement for Mike's old sump pump was a new TripleSafe system. TripleSafe is a three-pump design containing a primary, backup, and battery-powered pump to prevent failure, even during power outages. Mike loves being worry-free about basement leaks!

A homeowner in Jackson, MI, reached out to us with concerns about their crawl space. Upon inspection, we found it was a haven for bugs, with moldy, deteriorating insulation hanging from the floorboards. The damp walls threatened the longevity of the home and could eventually cause mold to spread to other areas. To address these issues, we installed a CleanSpace system with drainage mats beneath it to direct water toward a sump pump, which safely moves it away from the home. The crawl space is now clean, free of cobwebs, and much more accessible. It’s brighter, offers additional storage space, and ensures the home stays protected from future moisture problems.

When finishing your basement, especially if you're turning it into a bedroom or otherwise habitable living space (i.e. an apartment), it's important to be aware of building code. You must have a properly sized window, like the egress windows we install.

While finishing their basement, our customer had us install a new egress to take the place of their small, outdated basement window. You'll have to look closely to even see it in the before picture. The difference is dramatic.
