Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

One of our customers from Leland Michigan gave us a call. She said that her basement was collecting water and she needed help waterproofing it.  We drove to her home and knew just the solution, she did not have a sump pump so we hooked her up with the best one out there, the TripleSafe. TripleSafe is a sump pump with three different pumps in one liner. The first being the 1/3 hp zoeller pump which does most of the pumping and is placed at the bottom of the liner. The second is the 1/2 hp zoeller that is placed slightly higher than the first. This pump is more powerful but will only be turned on when needed. The final pump is the battery-operated UltraSump DC which is used in case of a power outage, this pump can pump up to 24,000 gallons of water. 

James R. from Rogers City, MI has block walls and an unfinished basement that was letting water into the basement. Water in a basement can create problems such as sticking doors and windows, mold growth, and mildewy odors. Thankfully, we had a solution. 

For this project, we installed the SuperSump premier sump pump system. The SuperSump is a sump pump specifically designed to keep your basement dry for long periods of time. Capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour, it is suitable for heavy water intrusion.

Dusty K., from Rogers City, MI began experiencing water seepage where the wall meets the floor, in a section of his partially finished basement. This issue was leaving his entire basement covered in water. After receiving Dusty’s call for help, we examined the issues in his basement and recommended WaterGuard to remedy the problem. Installed along the home's footing, beneath the concrete, WaterGuard collects water along the base of the perimeter walls and safely directs it to a sump pump for removal from the home.

With Dusty not having a sump pump in his basement he realized the need for one and had a Super Sump installed. The Super Sump is a cost-effective sump pump system that contains an air tight lid, floor drain, pump stand, and a pump alarm. These are the essential features needed to help keep a basement dry. In an effort to transform the look of his basement, Dusty also elected for us to install BrightWall basement wall panels. These panels can easily transform damp, ugly basement walls into bright, beautiful walls that never need paint or other maintenance. To finish the beatification process, our friend chose MillCreek Basement Flooring. This product combines the beauty, texture, and classic appeal of a traditional hardwood floor with engineering made specifically for the basement environment. Thanks to this total installment Dusty’s basement is now dry; and more beautiful then we found it.

This Rogers City, MI basement had been having water issues for a while. Unfortunately, the water issue has now also turned into a mold issue. Mold growth is inevitable in your basement or crawl space if you don’t take care of water intrusion right away. Fortunately, with our SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System, we are able to keep this basement dry and avoid any future water dilemmas.

Our SuperSump is a great option if you’re looking for a more economical solution. It is engineered to help keep the basement dry and healthy for extended periods of time, even in times of heavy water intrusion. SuperSump also comes with the option of installing our UltraSump Battery Backup Sump Pump, which will pump out water in the event that your power goes out.

If you don’t have major flooding issues, but just occasional water issues, this might be the right fit for you. This system provides total protection, and like all of our sump pump systems, works perfectly with our drainage systems.

Diane is a repeat customer of ours, who is always satisfied with the work Ayers provides. The basement windows in her Rogers City, MI home were rusted out and made her feel unsafe. Diane wanted the windows to have a tighter seal so that water would not come in, as well as stronger glass and a better locking mechanism for her family’s safety. 

We installed our EverLast Basement Windows. They are designed to help make your home more energy-efficient and safe. They are framed with vinyl, instead of the more common metal or wood, so it won’t rust or rot. They have a tight seal so no drafts of air or water will get into the home. 

Diane was home during the installation and was thrilled with the work done by Ayers, yet again. She felt like she got her peace of mind back, knowing her home was protected.
