Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Some sump pump manufacturers will sell you their sump pump by saying that you get free replacements or a lifetime warranty but how true is that? But think about it, how will you know when your pump needs to be replaced? Probably once it has already flooded your entire basement which is what we're trying to prevent. So basically your lifetime warranty of free replacements are going to be no help. 

We have the best pumps on the market. There is literally a pump to suit everyones basement needs. The SuperSump installed here comes with an airtight lid to prevent water from evaporating back into your basement and to prevent unwanted debris from clogging your pump.  There is also a pump stand to elevate the pump above the sump liner a little bit so no clogging and keep everything clean. The best part too is that it comes equipped with a pump alarm to alert you if its failing or your basement is in danger of being flooded. 

Laurie and Jim’s found Ayers through their neighbor, who we did work for a few years ago. They were enjoying their retirement in their Edwardsburg, MI lake home when they noticed sagging floors above the crawlspace. They called Ayers and when we came for an inspection, our crew saw that the old foundation supports were extremely corroded and needed to be replaced. 

Our crew decided SmartJacks would be the perfect solution for their home. SmartJacks are steel supports that balance the foundation of the crawlspace, lifting it to its original position. They can be adjusted so the home will never shift out of place and are anchored into the ground with poured concrete. 

Laurie and Jim were ecstatic to get their peace of mind back regarding the structural integrity of their home. This home will be their forever home and Laurie and Jim are so excited to start this new chapter together. 

It's pretty obvious that you have to have a way for your gutters to drain water away from your house. However, most discharge lines are bulky, not very appealing and can be a pain to mow around and can even be a tripping hazard. We have the perfect solution to this. The LawnScape outlet work great if you want to bury those unwanted discharge lines. This works well even if you have virutally no pitch. It's designed so it won't clog and it's barely noticable in your yard, which is a win in our book.

The homeowners had water coming into their basement every time it rained. The water would seep in through the basement corners causing damage to the homeowners walls and floors.

Our professional team installed WaterGuard long lasting interior perimeter drainage system to combat this seeping water! The WaterGuard system is designed to capture water seepage from the floors and walls and direct that water to the sump pump so it can be effectively removed from the home. The WaterGuard system is the best interior drainage system around because it sits on the top of the footing in your basement so it does not get clogged and it does not cause any damage to your basements foundation. The system is nearly invisible when installed and is less expensive to install compared to exterior perimeter drainage systems. 

The homeowners space is now clean and dry! 

Gene was looking into getting an egress window mainly for safety purposes. He saw that Ayers sold Egress Windows so he decided to make the call. We had our customer care team set up an appointment and we went forward with the installation!

The benefits of Egress Windows are plentiful. First off, they provide the quick and easy exit option he was looking for in emergency situations. They are also much larger than typical basement windows which means more natural light and fresh air will fill the room. Installing an Egress Window will even add value to the home in the long run and is especially nice if he is looking to finish his basement. We also installed a lid cover to prevent debris and water from filling the well, keeping it well protected for longer.

Gene was happy to make his home safer and more attractive!
