Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Ayers team addressed the water and mold issues in the crawl space of a home built in 1990 with a cinderblock foundation. They installed a sump pump and encapsulated the crawlspace using CleanSpace moisture barrier and vent covers. Additionally, they used FrothPak insulation to seal gaps and prevent further moisture intrusion. This comprehensive approach ensures a dry and healthy crawlspace environment, protecting the home from structural damage and indoor air quality issues.

JP knew his basement windows were a safety issue when he realized they didn't open from the inside. He knew there had to be other options, so he researched and called Ayers for help. Our crew of professionals visited his home and recommended the installation of an egress window designed to provide an escape during emergencies. Egress windows are durable enough to withstand heavy soil and water weight and have a polycarbonate safety cover that won't break when stepped on. JP feels safer in his home!

Shawn B installed an egress window after waterproofing his basement. These windows are large and allow natural light to flow in and transform a dark, muggy basement into a light, airy space. If you plan to create a basement bedroom, by law you are required to install an egress window. Shawn also opted to have us install SunHouse window wells to help protect your basement windows from the elements as well as a build up of dirt and debris.

This Mackinaw City, MI family called us because they were dealing with a serious water problem in their basement. Upon inspection, we determined that an installation of our CleanSpace system, WaterGuard system and our SmartSump sump pump was the combination for success. CleanSpace was used to seal off the basement walls from any water and hinder the growth of mold. Our WaterGuard system, a French drain system, was put below the floor and on top of the foundation footing to catch water and guide it to the sump pump -- our patented SmartSump. All in all, this family can now live comfortably knowing the lower level of their home is clean and dry. 

To get the water out of this Mackinaw City, MI basement, we at Ayers installed our patented IceGuard. The IceGuard grated discharge line protector allows for water to leave your sump pump and be dumped outside even in freezing months. This is a perfect solution for this house simply because of its geographic location, being that winters are very long and harsh. However, in any freezing temperatures, pipes can burst if you do not have IceGuard. This family can be assured that their basement will not be flooding due to a burst pipe for every winter they encounter.
