Ayers Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Cinder block walls in crawl spaces are known for their lack of water and air resistant properties. Their porous and leaky features lead to water seeping in which was what we found in this Marshall, MI crawl space.

With CleanSpace wrapped around the walls, this liner will act as a vapor barrier to keep moisture out of the house. CleanSpace is durable and mold resistant and transformed this area from wet to dry. 

Paul complained that his basement was a little drafty. He noticed that draft  was coming from the basement window. We helped by installing our EverLast windows. EverLast windows are energy-efficient and all vinyl windows. They are double-pane glass, will not let any wind in, and are rot and mildew-resistant.

Kim and John were concerned about the damage water in their crawl space could do, once they noticed some coming in from hairline cracks in the wall. Their crawl space was small, but after meeting with one of our system design specialists, they knew that they needed to give the issue their attention.

Our team’s first step was to repair the cracks in the wall to prevent water from seeping in. Using FlexiSpan, a three-step process using flexible sealant, foam, and an impermeable membrane, the cracks were fixed. The next step was to encapsulate the space to stop water vapor from the floor and water that may come in at other points in the future.

A specially engineered multi-layered liner, CleanSpace, was also fixed to the walls in the crawl space. This white liner not only brightens up the space, but it’s durable and provides a vapor barrier, keeping the space clean and dry.

Windows can give a basement a more homey and comfortable look while brightening up the space. But it's not all fun and games...poorly installed windows can lead to huge air leakages causing bills to skyrocket, as well as potential future water problems.

We installed a window for homeowners in Marshall, MI that is energy efficient and rot and mildew-resistant. It will keep warm air in in the winter and cool air in in the summer, something we all know is necessary for the weather conditions we get here in Michigan. Nothing like a little natural light to quickly improve a basement and make it more inviting! 

A company's sidewalk was unenven and craking in front of their building. So they called our team and we installed PolyLevel, a system that fixes settlement issues in concrete slabs. A polyurethane foam that expands and has a high density is used in order to raise the concrete. The process is quite simple and is done by drilling small holes into the concrete and then inserting the foam into the holes. Also, the PolyLevel system is waterproof and long-lasting.
