Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

A couple from Grandville, Michigan, were looking for a solution to their annoying water leak. The couple contacted Ayers about a specific place in their basement where water would leak whenever it rained. The team at Ayers determined the FlexiSpan system would be the perfect option after conducting an inspection!

The FlexiSpan process begins with filling the cracks with a unique adhesive in preparation for another layer. Once the gap in the wall was sealed,  A larger portion of FlexiSpan was applied to ensure no water would leak into the house anymore! The couple was thrilled they would no longer need to clean up water in their basement!

Steve noticed the cracks in his walls were deepening and hoped to prevent further damage, so he called Ayers for help. We sent our specialists to his home, and they recommended the installation of GeoLock wall anchors. The wall anchors are made of galvanized steel and fastened to the compromised wall. A ground anchor is placed away from the house in undisturbed soil and connected to the wall anchor by a steel rod. Once the whole system is tightened, the foundation wall will be permanently stabilized. Steve feels much more comfortable in his home!

This homeowner was in the process of selling his house when he noticed standing water and a leak in his crawl space. Our system design specialist took a trip out to Douglas, MI to see what kind of help we could provide.

After hearing the possible options, the owner decided on a full crawl space encapsulation. The white liner seen in the after photo is CleanSpace, a plastic vapor barrier used for encapsulation. Used on both the walls and floor, the barrier will prevent moisture, humidity, and other common crawl space threats from entering. Underneath the liner is a drainage matting, which will be used to address the issue of standing water in the crawl space. The matting will keep water from puddling and direct flow to the newly installed SmartSump pump for discharge. A new fully protected crawl space should make selling this home much easier.

This family cottage sits right on the beach and they wanted to make sure their beloved cottage was going to last another 100 years, for generations to come. The homeowners noticed the floor was starting to sink and were not level throughout the home and most of the windows and doors were sticking, all signs that the foundation is settling. 

We were able to fix the settling floors and sticking windows and doors by installing out SmartJack crawl space stabilizers. The SmartJacks are made of galvanized steel so they won't rust and will remain solid for years to come. These jacks can withhold more than 60,000 pounds. This is more than enough to transfer the weight of your home to the SmartJacks, leaving you with a level floor. 

Charles wanted his entire crawl space encapsulated so he called our team. We installed CleanSpace, an uninterrupted vapor barrier. This material is applied to the walls and floor of your crawl space. It restricts all moisture, outside air, and pests from entering your crawl space. This system creates an energy-efficient crawl space, and it also gives your crawl space a clean finish.
