Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Larry wasn't sure where the water in his basement was entering, but he needed to get it fixed. He called Ayers to learn about our waterproofing solutions and we sent our experts to his house. They recommended installing the WaterGuard drainage pipe system to prevent clogging. WaterGuard does this by sitting atop the footing, rather than alongside it. Larry is relieved to have a dry basement!

The problem with block basement walls is that they can easily sprout leaks. The block allows vapor and actual water to seep through, which can stain and water damage walls. That's exactly what happened to this restaurant in Sault Ste. Marie (see before picture). When the owner decided to waterproof the floor, he realized it was as good a time as any to fix up the walls as well.

Our BrightWall panels were the perfect solution. The paneling was attached directly on top of the previously stained walls, and it's clear that the white plastic is a much better look for the basement. On top of that, the basement walls are now completely waterproof. Water vapor and moisture may pass through the porous block walls, but they won't make it through the BrightWall paneling. Any water that does seep through the block walls will be drained into the restaurant's new perimeter drainage system and discharged outside. A good restaurant atmosphere usually refers to the actual dining area, but that's no reason why the rest of the place shouldn't look its best too. Give us a call if you'd like to see what BrightWall could do for your basement as well.  

Scott grew concerned with the amount of moisture accumulation in his damp crawl space. He put his trust in Ayers to come up with the best solution. We sent a crew to install our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. The powerful system is capable of removing 95 pints of water per day. He will never have to worry about emptying it since it is self-draining. This addition will keep the crawl space dry and smelling better. No more damp, musty smells invading Scott's home!

Kathie had noticed water was seeping into her crawl space through the entrance. Kathie contacted Ayers and set up a home inspection to explore her options. An Ayers specialist determined that The Turtl Cover would be perfect for her home! The Turtl is a durable, plastic crawl space access well that provides a water-tight seal into the crawl space. Kathie was thrilled that she no longer needed to worry about water leaking into the crawl space through the entrance!

Sharon had water in her basement that was getting the carpet damp so she wanted it addressed before other issues arose. We installed a sump pump to get rid of the water, the WaterGuard Drain System to collect the water, and the SaniDry XP to keep the area dry as well as filter the air.
