Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Brendan's basement window was very small and unattractive. Brendan was looking into getting an Egress Window to replace it, so he called up Ayers. Egress Windows come with a large exterior well and safe exit passage for emergency situations. This is legally required for many buildings and homes. These windows are much larger which opens up the space with more natural light and fresh air able to come in. The basement is now more welcoming for guests and has less of that dark, dungeon feel. Not to mention the home was built in 1935, so renovating these windows was a great move that will only add value to Brendan's home in the future!

A lot of water was entering Terri’s basement so he called our team. Our team installed TripleSafe, a sump pump system, in addition to installing other systems. TripleSafe has three pumps so that it can handle the highest pumping demands. Also, one of the pumps is battery powered so it can continue to pump water even during power outages. Terri will no longer have to worry about his basement flooding even if his electricity goes out.

Nicole wanted a finished basement, but she couldn’t keep water out. So our team installed the ThermalDry Elite Plank Flooring in Nicole’s basement. This flooring is not vulnerable to mold or water damage because it is made completely from inorganic material. In addition, this flooring works perfectly with our waterproofing systems. This flooring will allow Nicole to have nice wood flooring in her basement without having to worry about it being ruined by water damage.

This family needed their basement finished and to better insulate their home. They went with our Basement to Beautiful Panels that are shown in the after picture. These panels are not a finished wall but we offer many different options to finish them. The Basement to Beautiful panels are made of foam with graphite infused throughout them. This drives up the insulation value compared to regular foam insulation by 24%. The panels also eliminate the conventional wood stud framing commonly found in basements. Wood in a basement can rot and grow mold, and this family told us they had found mold. The panels are sure to make your basement warm and help make the rooms above the basement warmer too. 

Alan was having some water issues in one of the rooms in his basement. The room was unfinished and wanted to get the water issue fixed as quick as possible so it would not create other issues in the basement. Upon inspection we found that the water was coming in where 2 of the walls met. We had just to solution to keep his basement room dry. We first installed the WaterGuard system which is a French drain system that is under the floor. It collects water that leaks into the area and drains it to the sump pump. The system installs quickly and all concrete is restored after installation. We then installed a new sump pump for him to keep water out of his basement. We installed the TripleSafe which gives the homeowner peace of mind and offers three levels of protection to the basement.
