Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Barbara was looking for exterior solutions for her discharge lines so she called Ayers for professional help. After a free inspection was conducted it was determined she needed IceGuard and LawnScape Outlet. With IceGuard this will prevent the freezing or clogging of the exterior discharge lines with its antifreeze fitting that has slotted openings that eject water away from the foundation. Then LawnScape Outlet was added to the end of the line as an underground extension that blends into the yard and expels downspout water.

Barbara was glad to make her home safer with these installations to her discharge lines!

Matt wanted to create more space for his children in his Marshall, MI, home near the Kalamazoo River, but safety was his top priority. He contacted Ayers for a professional egress window installation before moving his eldest daughter into a downstairs bedroom. Our team installed a waterproof egress window with a galvanized well, escape ladder, and secure cover to ensure safety and protection from the elements. Now, Matt’s daughter has a bright, secure bedroom, and his home is safer and more functional for years to come.

Kevin was concerned his family wouldn't be able to escape the basement of his home if there was an emergency. The windows didn't open and weren't large enough for escape, so he called Ayers for help. We sent our crew of experts to visit Kevin's house and recommend installing an egress window. Egress windows are designed to be safe, secure, and durable. Kevin feels so much better about his basement's safety!

Our customer called with water issues in their basement, but also wanted an egress window installed so once the waterproofing was done they could use the basement as proper living space. We installed a new egress window in place of the old window, bringing the basement up to code for use as a bedroom.

Trevor has been experiencing water seepage through the corners of his unfinished basement for years. It was finally time to permanently resolve the leaks by calling Ayers. We recommended our WaterGuard and TripleSafe sump pump systems to keep water outside the home rather than on the floor. First, our subfloor drainage system, called WaterGuard, collects water leaking through the walls and reroutes it to the sump pump. The specially designed piping is installed along the perimeter of the basement below the walls and is covered by pouring fresh concrete over the top. Lastly, we added our three-pump system TripleSafe. Each pump lives in one durable liner and handles the water intrusion by directing the water outside the home. The third pump has a battery pack to ensure it runs during power outages. Trevor's worries about water damage in his basement are gone!
