Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Josh's front porch is shifted and it is moving away from the home. The brick column at the edge of the porch is cracking and the area around it is settled. Josh is worried that the porch will pull on the house and make more issues than there already is. We helped them out by installing Helical Piers which can have sections added to reach the hard soil it anchors into. The pier will stabilize the porch as well as possibly returning it to the original position. The pier system has fast year-round installation too so the homeowners will not be disturbed. 

Water had been entering this historic Grand Rapids, MI home through the crawl space for years. This older crawl space was covered in field stones that no doubt allowed moisture to seep in causing mold, rot and robbed the home of any heat insulation. The constant moisture also contributed to severe structural issues in this home. We installed our CleanSpace crawl space liner which is a tough 20 mil, seven-ply barrier designed to permanently keep away any moisture and cold air. It is placed over the walls and floor and creates a constant blockage to anything outside of it. We also installed a TripleSafe sump pump to keep the crawl space dry in the future. 

The smart jack system is a foundation repair product that provides a permanent, adjustable solution. Made from galvanized steel, smart jacks will never rot or crack and can support more than 60,000 pounds. Once installed, the base of the steel is covered with concrete to provide additional stability. By waterproofing the basement as well, Ayers Basement Systems was able to provide a long-lasting solution for this West-Michigan family!

Louann's basement in Fulton, MI, faced constant water issues, with pooling at the floor-wall joint causing mold and drywall damage. After installing a CleanSpace® vapor barrier, WaterGuard® French drain, and TripleSafe™ sump pump, her basement is now dry, secure, and mold-free. Louann can now enjoy peace of mind knowing her home is safe from water damage and healthier for her family.

The walkway to this home in Grand Rapids, MI was sinking, proving to be not only an eyesore, but a tripping hazard. Luckily, there’s a quick and effective solution to fix this: PolyLevel. The PolyLevel systems works to raise concrete slabs by injecting high-density polymers into the slabs. This material is lightweight and dries quickly, so the sidewalk can be walked on in 15 minutes. PolyLevel dramatically improves the appearance of the sidewalk, eliminating a tripping hazard, too.
