Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This Quincy, MI, homeowner had battled basement moisture and water intrusion in his 1940s home for 35 years. The cold, damp basement made the home uncomfortable, and over time, the problem worsened. Ready for a permanent basement waterproofing solution, he contacted Ayers. Our team installed the CleanSpace wall system to encapsulate the leaky fieldstone walls, sealing out moisture. To further protect the basement, we added a WaterGuard drainage system to funnel any incoming water into a SuperSump Plus pump, safely directing it away from the home. A SaniDry dehumidifier was also installed to control basement humidity and ensure a dry, usable space. The homeowner was thrilled to have his long-standing wet basement issue resolved, and his home is now secure from future water damage and mold.

Edward wanted to install an Egress window into his basement and chose us at Ayers Basement Systems. Our crew conducted an inspection, determined where the window would be going, and got the necessary tools for the installation. The installation went smoothly, and Edward was thrilled with the final result! 

A customer that lives in Coldwater, Michigan had a basement counter that was taking a besating from the outside enviornment. Water was making its way through the basement with ease. Fortunately, we had just the fix. We installed our Cleanspace technology to do the job. CleanSpace is a 20 mil thick plastic liner that fits to the crawl space to completely seal the home from the earth. Polyester cord reinforcement allows for a lot of durability, to make it last longer than the home will. This liner also contains an antimicrobial additive to prevent mold. This liner should also be combined with CleanSpace vent covers to insulate and seal the air out. So, now water doesn't stand a chance to destroy this basement.

Jesse and Linda wanted to turn their basement into a finished basement space. So they called our team and we installed an egress window and well. Egress windows provide a safe exit in case of emergency so they are required in finished basement living areas. In addition to having a safe exit in your basement, these windows provide lots of natural light. Lastly, most windows offer minimal protection against outside air entering the home due to poor insulation around the window. Egress windows will help ventilate your indoor areas and prevent unwanted allergens from entering your house.

Laurie worried about the water pooling on her basement floor. After researching her options online, she called Ayers to learn about our waterproofing solutions. We sent a team of experts to visit her home and examine the basement to recommend a solution. They decided to install the TripleSafe sump pump, which includes three pumps designed to react to pump failure. The system contains a primary and backup pump but also has a third, battery-powered pump in case of power outages. Laurie is relieved she doesn't have to worry about her pump failing again!
