Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Travis called us with a request to have an Egress window installed in his basement. Not a problem. We were able to expertly install and seal the window in the poured concrete basement wall. We excavated on the exterior of the home for the install and placed a 50 inch wide galvanized window well in the hole to surround the window. Proper drainage was installed and stone was finished off the install. Now the basement is brighter and an emergency escape has been added for the space.

Steve just bought a house and was going to fix it up himself but he was concerned about the structural issues. He wanted the issues to be fixed and to give him peace of mind that the house was stable. We installed Helical Piers because they are great for stabilizing and restoring foundations. These piers have fast, year-round istallation so you never have to worry that your home can't get fixed due to the season. The piers can even help lift the foundation back to the original positiion.

Due to cracks in their walls, Kelsey and Randy were experiencing water leakage in their basement. They want to sell their house, but they can't until this issue is fixed. So our team installed FlexiSpan wall crack repair. FlexiSpan is a three part process that requires a flexible sealant, a flexible strip of foam and an impermeable membrane. These items are not affected by pressure or more movement in the walls, which is why they are better than mortar sealant or other solutions. So this system will provide a permanent fix to Kelsey and Randy's leaking walls, allowing them to sell their house.

No one wants a wet basement -- this Blanchard, MI family agreed with us. Upon our professional inspection, we recommended our SuperSump sump pump to help solve their water problem. SuperSump is specifically designed to keep your basement dry for long periods of time, and is capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour. Water doesn't stand a chance.

 This home in Blanchard, MI was over 100 years old, and the basement looked like it. With a mixed stone and brick walled foundation and a dirt floor, the space was letting in some water, and was far from inviting. The homeowners contacted us to waterproof the space and make it a more pleasant area.

We first addressed the sloped wall in the basement and stabilized and smoothed it with Shotcrete. Shotcrete is concrete that is applied by spraying it through a high pressure hose. This reinforces that wall and provides stability, while also creating a nice smooth surface.

Next, we installed a perimeter drainage system connected to a sump pump in the basement. This allows water to be collected and then rerouted to the SuperSump so that water can be pumped out of the basement. The final step of adding a poured concrete floor dramatically improves this space and makes it more functional and more inviting.
