Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

The homeowners had water coming into their home through one of their walls. One one point they had 3 or 4 inches of water pooling into their basement and damaging everything in the area. They knew something needed to be done so they called Ayers Basement Systems. 

Firstly, our professional team installed the SuperSump sump pump. The SuperSump is a full featured system containing the best componentes available. It includes the SuperLiner, which is an airtight lid that looks more attractive, keeps pests out and eliminates safety hazard of an open sump pump. It has a floor drain in case an unforeseen accident puts water on your basement floor. It includes a WaterWatch Alarm, which alerts you if the water level rises above the sump pump intake. It has a cast-iron pump to prevent overheating and burnout. It has a CleanPump pump stand that elevates the sump pump to prevent clogging.  It has a check valve to prevent pumped water from re-entering.  Lastly, it has an improved float valve to ensure long term performance.

Our professional team installed the WaterGuard long lasting interior perimeter drainage system. WaterGuard sits on the top of the footing in the basement in order to prevent clogging from mud or other debris. The system works by capturing floor and wall seepage before it has a chance to damage anything in the basement. Once the water is trapped in the drain it is taken immediately to the sump pump. The sump pump then removes the water from your home! 

The before picture shows the system once it is installed in the shallow trench and the after picture shows the system once it is completely installed and covered with a layer of concrete. 

Paul and his wife have water coming in from a corner of their finished basement where the floor meets the walls. There was no sump pump so when heavy rain comes, water pools in the area. We installed the WaterGuard drain system which is a drain under the floor but above the foundation to collect the water that seeps into the home. The water that is collected goes to the SuperSump Plus sump pump system that we also installed for them. The sump pump keeps the basement dry for extended periods of time, even in times of heavy rain. It has a back up battery in case there is a power outage so that water will still be discharged out of the home.

Loren and Allison had some water issues in their finished basement. There was moisture, a non-working sump pump, signs of water intrusion as well as standing water which makes it impossible to use the space. We knew right away what products would help these homeowners enjoy their basement once again. First we installed the WaterGuard system which is under the floor to collect the water. The water is then sent to the sump pump. We installed the TripleSafe Sump Pump System which provides three levels of protection to the basement in case of pump malfunction or a power outage. We then installed BrightWall Basement Wall Panels which are rigid plastic sheeting that's attached to your basement wall. It is waterproof and creates a vapor barrier on your basement to keep out water vapor and humidity. The wall panels ensure that your basement won't have mold growth or rot. it also directs water seepage into the perimeter drain so you won't have water in your basement.

Ron was hoping to get a permanent fix to the water leaks he was dealing with in his basement for a while so he called Ayers for solutions. After an inspection, our System Design Specialists were able to recommend our WaterGuard System, IceGuard, and our LawnScape Outlet. 

Our WaterGuard System is a sub-floor drainage system that will collect the water leaking into his basement. It is placed along the perimeter of the basement and concealed with concrete. Then we installed our IceGuard to protect against the clogging or freezing of his exterior discharge lines. Lastly we installed LawnScape Outlet which is an extension to the underground drainage lines that allows downspout water to escape.

Ron was happy to get these waterproofing systems installed so he doesn’t have to worry about water leaks ruining his stuff!
