Photo Album: WaterGuard Saves 1940s Swartz Creek, MI Home
Nick and his wife moved into their 1940 Swartz Creek, Michigan, home 5 years ago. Although, they didn’t start to have water issues until a few years later. Over time it was gotten much worse but until now they haven’t had the finances to take care of the issue so now that they do, they want to make sure it’s done right. They had a couple of other estimates, but none were as thorough as ours.
Nick’s basement is a concrete foundation with no sump pump. It’s an unfinished basement that gets water intrusion every time there are heavy rains. A few spots have what seem like fountains coming through the walls and other areas puddle on the floor. They’ve been using a shop vac regularly for much longer than they should have been and can’t wait to get the issue taken care of. To combat this issue, we would install WaterGuard throughout the basement.
Puddling Floors
This basement is in desperate need of WaterGuard! The couple is sick and tired of using the shop vac to clean up these messes every time it rains.
WaterGuard Installation
WaterGuard s a sub-floor waterproofing system that collects water that leaks through the walls and keeps dirt away from the foundation. It is installed along the perimeter of the basement and on top of the footing of the foundation.
WaterGuard is Complete!
To finish the WaterGuard installation, concrete is poured on top and regular flooring can be placed on top if needed. Nick and his wife were ecstatic to finally have this problem taken care of by the pros at Ayers Basement Systems.
