Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Ken was working to renovate his basement and implement a bedroom, yet he needed to install a secondary exit. He decided to contact us at Ayers Basement Systems to have an Egress window installed. Our team inspected a time where the window would go and what Ken wanted to be installed. The widow was later installed, and Ken opted for an egress window cover and lid to ensure water did get down the well. Ken was thrilled with the result of the job, as he could continue implementing a new bedroom!

Maureen and Anthony were looking for a solution to their egress window. The couple decided to contact Ayers to explore their options. An inspection of their home determined that the prior window was not sealed and cracks under the window were due to water damage. Maureen and Anthony decided to install a new window and the FlexiSpan System.

The new egress window will provide a watertight seal with the foundation, preventing water from getting in. The FlexiSpan system is a three-part system that seals the foundation cracks and applies a membrane creating a moisture barrier. Any water that may seep into Maureen and Anthony's home will drain behind the FlexiSpan to a drain in the floor!

Floyd has lived in his home built in the 50s for about 20 years. Water has been seeping in from the walls and pooling all over since he moved in. He finally called Ayers for an inspection and our crew determined that a combination of WaterGuard and the TripleSafe sump pump would solve Floyd's waterproofing needs. 

WaterGuard is 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. Concrete is poured on top and regular flooring can be placed on top. The TripleSafe sump pump utilizes three pumps in order to remove excess water from the basement. The second and third pumps are in case of emergencies so the basement can remain dry, even when the power goes out. 

Floyd was overjoyed that this problem could finally be fixed. He never has to worry about the hassle of cleaning up after a flood ever again. 

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!
