Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Phillip worried his sump pump wasn't pumping water out of his basement fast enough. He knew this project wouldn't be completed on his own, so he called Ayers for help. A team of specialists visited and decided the TripleSafe sump pump would be the best solution. TripleSafe contains three pumps: a primary, backup, and battery-powered pump for power outages. Phillip loves how dry his basement is!

Anthony had no clue why his current sump pump rarely ran properly. It would only run about ten times per day. Tired of this frustrating issue, he called our waterproofing experts at Ayers. Our team inspected his current sump pump and decided our TripleSafe Sump Pump would make the best replacement. TripleSafe consists of three pumps that fit in one durable liner, ensuring that any water leaks are collected here. The first pump will keep most of the water under control. The second pump will turn on if any backup is needed and the final pump is battery-operated for power outages. Anthony was glad he called for professional help instead of dealing with the leaks himself!

Donald realized water was leaking into his basement and pooling on the floor during the last storm. He knew the longer the water seeped and crept, the more things could be ruined, so he researched and called Ayers. Our crew of experts visited his home to recommend a solution. They suggested installing TripleSafe, the three-in-one sump pump system. TripleSafe includes a primary and a backup pump, accompanied by a third battery-powered pump in case of power outages! Donald is happy his basement is dry!

Jason called us when he noticed that sand was starting to work its way through large cracks in his block basement wall. Upon inspection, our team found a severely bowing wall. Horizontal cracks with large gaps were present. In fact, our system design specialist was able to stick his hand two knuckles deep into the crack. The main concern was that the wall would fail completely leaving Jason's backyard in his basement.

Our crew put in a series of 16 galvanized steel PowerBraces around the basement along failing walls. These PowerBraces extend from the floor to the floor joists above. The floor joists are reinforced in a way that ensure that the load on the braces is distributed evenly and floor above maintains its integrity. The PowerBraces have an awesome and tightening system that other I-Beams just don't have. It allows our service team or the homeowner to slowly adjust the PowerBraces over time during dry periods in a way that could potentially improve the condition of the wall over time and even bring it back to its original position in many cases.

The before photo shows where the leaking water had damaged, discolored, and allowed mold growth on this crawl space’s walls. Making things even worse, the leaking water had also caused musty smells to the crawl space. In the after photo, you can see the solution we provided. CleanSpace is a plastic vapor barrier that was used to cover the dirt floor crawl space. Together with the SilverGlo Wall Insulation and Froth Pak foam that are covering the walls in the after photo, water will be kept out from this crawl space permanently.
