Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Jane was stressed over the water leaking into her home during heavy rainfalls and she knew she had to put an end to it. She gave Ayers a call when she was on the hunt for solutions and we sent a crew out for a free inspection. After taking a look, our System Design Specialists let Jane know it would be best to have our WaterGuard System, TripleSafe Sump Pump System, and our IceGuard System installed. 

First we installed the WaterGuard System which will collect water and dirt, keeping it away from your foundation. This sub-floor drainage system is installed around the perimeter of the basement. Concrete is poured over it to conceal the system. Then with TripleSafe, this is a three pump system that fits in one durable liner and will also help in getting the water out of your basement. The first pump will do most of the work and the second is there for backup. The last pump will turn on if there is a power outage. Finally, we added IceGuard to the exterior drainage lines to prevent any clogging or freezing during cold, harsh weather. The slotted openings in it will eject water in these situations.

After these waterproofing installations, Jane is no longer stressing about water intruding into her home!

Bill realized his old sump pump was leaking water into his basement and wanted a new one installed, so he called Ayers. We sent our crew to his home to evaluate and recommend a solution. They decided to install the TripleSafe sump pump with three separate pumps to prevent failure. If the first pump fails, there's a backup pump and even a battery-powered one for power outages. Bill feels much better with TripleSafe in his home!

Tim's home was built in the 1890s, and the old stone foundation was falling apart. Tim called us for an inspection and we knew right away that Shotcrete would be the perfect solution to his problem. Shotcrete is a sprayable concrete that stabilizes foundation walls and fills any holes that let in unwanted water or air. It's applied through a high-pressure hose. The extra force propelling the concrete out is what makes the Shotcrete able to applied to vertical and sloping surfaces. Tim was grateful that his foundation was fixed and the integrity of his home was restored. 

Michael was hoping to finally put an end to the wall leaks that would seep into his home, damaging his precious belongings. Tired of this stressful issue he called Ayers to get a crew out to his home to discuss possible solutions. After the inspection our System Design Specialists concluded Michael needed our WaterGuard System and our TripleSafe Sump Pump System. 

First we installed WaterGuard which is a sub-floor drainage system that will collect any water leaking through the walls which is the exact problem he was dealing with. Specially engineered piping is placed around the perimeter of the basement on top of the footing of the foundation. The water will then be directed to the sump system. Concrete is poured over the system to conceal it. Since Michael didn't have a sump system we went ahead and installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System. This is a very efficient system as it consists of three pumps that fit in one durable liner and work together to keep water out. The first pump does the main job but the second is there for backup and the last pump is battery operated, meaning it will turn on during power outages.

With these waterproofing systems installed, Michael is now stress-free from these pesky wall leaks!

Ronald was in the process of finishing his basement. The last step was adding an egress window to make the space more inviting. He called Ayers to begin this installation. Our egress windows are much larger than the average basement window. This addition will brighten the room and allow more fresh air to circulate. The window provides a safe exit option for emergencies that may arise. With this new window, the dark, gloomy feel of the basement is no longer an issue!
