When wall starts to leak, it can mean a big mess for your basement - especially if your drywall also begins to rot. That’s why this Georgetown Township, MI customer immediately removed the affected drywall and gave us a call. He had worked with us a few months back, so he was familiar and comfortable with our services. For small wall cracks like these, our crews use FlexiSpan – a two-layer polymer sealant. While one layer plugs the cracks, the other provides a drainage route for any water that does leak through. The owner won’t have to worry about that seepage puddling on his basement floor, though. Below the wall, a drainage system was also installed into the foundation floor to catch any leaking water. Rotting drywall will no longer be a problem in this basement.
This customer has a partially finished basement. Not only do building codes require an additional exit besides the door, but they require an exit that you can actually fit through. These windows are large enough to be an emergency exit and also add to the nice and finished look of the basement. In addition, it allows more light to enter the basement, making it a more comfortable living space and not feel like a dungeon. Egress windows are sealed and watertight so that they will not leak. This eases the mind of homeowners so that they will not have to worry about ruined furniture or carpet.
Michelle recently moved into a new home and realized it didn't have basement windows. For safety reasons, this was concerning, so she researched her options and called Ayers for help. We sent a team of experts to her home to evaluate and recommend a solution. They suggested installing an egress window to provide a safe and quick escape during an emergency. Egress windows are designed to withstand pressure from dirt and water, include stair steps for easy evacuation, and the polycarbonate safety cover reduces surface falls. Michelle loves her new plan!
Discharge lines can seem like a necessary evil. You need to drain water away from your home, but they're so ugly. Also your kids can trip over them, and they make mowing the lawn a nightmare.
But by installing a Lawnscape outlet at the end of your discharge line, you can bury it without the risk of water backing up. And as you can see below, you'll barely know it's there.
Rudy lives in Indiana but has a rental property here in Michigan. He's looking to sell the property but had to address some foundation issues first. The basement walls have had a crack that has only been getting larger the past 3 years as well as bowing walls. Rudy called Ayers for an inspection and we determined that PowerBraces would be the best solution for his foundation.
PowerBraces are steel supports that secure to the joists above the foundation. They evenly distribute the weight of the home, strengthening the foundation over time. Rudy will be able to sell the home no problem now, at a much higher price!
