Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

The crack in this was a likely point of entry for water in the basement. It would be easy to go to the hardware store and fix the crack yourself, with mortar or adhesive, but it’s very likely this solution wouldn’t last long, especially if the crack were ever to expand. FlexiSpan crack repair is a warranted repair system that seals the crack in three steps. First, a flexible sealant is applied along the crack, and then porous foam is applied over it. Lastly, an impermeable membrane is applied over the foam, allowing any water that may come through the crack to be caught by the drainage system along the floor. The flexible material of FlexiSpan means the repair covering won’t crack if the walls move in the future. This specially designed system puts a stop to wall leaks, preventing a basement full of water.

The front walkway should be an inviting path to the home; it shouldn't be a tripping hazard. As soil beneath the concrete slabs changes due to moisture or washout, the levels of the slabs change, making a walkway or sidewalk uneven. A solution to fixing slab settlement is PolyLevel. This state of the art approach consists of injecting the slab with high-density polymers. This material is waterproof, meaning it won't wash out benath the slab in the future. It's quick drying time allows the slabs to be walked in within 15 minutes of application. PolyLevel helped even this walkway, making it a safe entryway to the home.

Kelly noticed a vertical crack in her finished basement wall and a big crack outside her home near the corner. She called becuase she wanted a solution to the cracks before they got worse and let water in. We installed Helical Piers so stabilize the home. They can be insatlled quickly and year-round. Not only can they stabilize the structure that is settling but they can also help restore the foundations to the original position.

The homeowners in Hudsonvill, MI had so much moisture in their crawlspace that it was causing mold. This mold also brought a musty smell to the rest of their home. If there is moisture in your crawl space your energy bills will rise, unwanted pests will be living in there, and mold will start to grow causing bad smells and sometimes health problems for your family. 

Our professional team installed our CleanSpace encapsulation system to combat the mold and moisture. The system covers the floor and walls of your crawl space with a thick, durable, plastic vapor barrier. This vapor barrier isolates your moisture filled crawl space from your home, prevents mold growth and keeps unwanted pests out. 

The homeowners in Hudsonville, MI had water coming into their crawl space. The water was putting way to much moisture in the area and was causing mold to grow. Having a lot of moisture in your crawl space increases your energy bills, is more inviting to unwanted pests, and facilitates mold growth. 

To combat this moisture our professional team installed our SmartSump sump pump. The SmartSump is specifically designed for crawl spaces to help reduce moisture, remove water and prevent flooding. The SmartSump has a unique sump pump cover design, so water from a plumbing leak fills an alarm pocket on the lid first, sounding a WaterWatch alarm that will let you know there is a plumbing leak. From there, the water flows down a special airtight floor drain that will let the water down, but damp air cannot come up into your crawl space. The WaterWatch sump pump alarm also alerts you to pump failure for any reason, including power outages. 

Thanks to the SmartSump the homeowners crawl space is now clean and dry!
