Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Josh and Laura, who have two young children and are expecting twins, decided to finish their basement and add a bedroom downstairs to accommodate their oldest son and the new additions to their family. They needed to install an egress window to make the bedroom in the basement compliant and safe for their son. They also addressed water problems by installing a full-perimeter waterproofing system in the basement. With these changes, Josh and Laura can now confidently put their son in the basement, feel assured about his safety, and make room for the new additions to the family.

Dennis and Jeni recently purchased a 1931 home in Grand Rapids, MI. During their home inspection, some key inspection points were missed, and unfortunately, after moving in, they experienced basement water seepage. Dennis and Jeni decided to call Ayers to discuss available solutions. After inspection, Ayers determined that a waterproofing system was necessary. A triple-safe sump pump was installed to pump out the extra water, and our water guard was installed around the perimeter of the basement to capture all access water and drive it to the sump pump. In addition, our CleanSpace was secured around the wall to provide a moisture barrier and a cleaner finish. Dennis and Jeni's home is now dry.

A homeowner in Hart, MI, wanted to keep their home safe and dry. Their grandfather originally built the house, and they wanted to keep it in their family. With a child on the way, they wanted to ensure peace of mind, knowing their basement would no longer flood. Ayers installed a full perimeter waterproofing system with a water guard, a sump pump, and a clean space on the wet wall to ensure a dry space for the future.

Marlene was excited to move into her home until she noticed the basement windows wouldn't open. She knew she needed this fixed, so she called Ayers. A crew of experts visited her house and suggested installing an egress window. When it comes to basement safety, egress windows offer exit steps for easy evacuation and durability to withstand pressure from heavy rocks and soil. Marleen is happy to have her peace of mind back!

Shannon realized her old sump pump was failing, causing water to leak on the floor, so she called Ayers for help. Our crew visited her home to evaluate and recommend a solution. They determined the TripleSafe sump pump system would be the best option for preventing failure. TripleSafe includes primary, backup, and battery-powered pumps in case of emergencies. Shannon is happy to have a working sump pump!
