Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Kareen and her son want to get her home in tip top shape so if they need to sell in the next couple years, all the issues are taken care of. There has been water coming into her partially finished basement where the walls and floors meet as well as from the wall itself. There were cracks outside of the home on the foundation wall and some inside where the water was leaking through. We used PowerBraces to keeps the cracks from getting larger and to help return the wall to the original position. We then installed the WaterGuard Below Floor Drain to collect any water that seeps in and sends it to the sump pump that Kareen already had in her basement so the water could be discharged outside the home. 

Mercedes's old home was built in 1920. There was water seepage through a basement wall, so she needed trustworthy waterproofing systems to keep the house dry permanently. She ended up calling Ayers for our waterproofing solutions, so we sent a team for a free inspection. Our crew suggested our WaterGuard and TripleSafe sump pump system. WaterGuard is an interior drainage system that collects the water leaking through the wall. We place this drain along the perimeter of the basement and pour concrete over the top to conceal it. Next, we hooked the WaterGuard to TripleSafe to eradicate the water. TripleSafe is a three-pump system that fits in one durable liner. Mercedes was relieved and impressed with the professional solutions provided to her!

Daniel was having issues with his egress window as water was getting into his basement during heavy rains. He decided to contact Ayers and look for solutions to his home problems. A System Design Specialist with Ayers determined that the window lid and well were not waterproofed, thus allowing water into the basement. The team at Ayers suggested installing a new window cover and lid. 

Daniel opted to have the Rockwell Egress Window Cover installed, which will provide a much better seal to the house and stop water from leaking into the window well. Additionally, a Rockwell Escape lid was installed, which made the window look better and provided a waterproof seal! After everything was said and done with Daniel's home, he no longer needed to worry about water leaking into his basement!

The customer had water coming into her 1890s home from the northwest corner, with up to half an inch of standing water at times. Concerned about the old stone foundation, she requested a full inspection. Utilizing our full perimeter waterproofing system and our Triplesafe Sump Pump, this basement can now be dry and no longer be concerned about water intrusion.

The owners of this Decatur, MI rental home started to notice moisture in the walls and throughout the carpet in this room. They did what they could to dry out the space, including running a dehumidifier, but nothing worked. Our team came and revealed that the moisture had indeed done some damage— causing mold and mildew to grow behind the drywall. The best option to combat this was to replace the drywall along the perimeter of the room and replace it with EverLast wall panels. These cement boards have a washable, vinyl finish and are more resistant to water than traditional drywall. ThermalDry tiles, which are the only inorganic subfloors resilient to water and mold, were then installed making this room dry and mold-free.
