Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

To stop further water leakage in this Potterville resident's basemnet, he called Ayers. Our team installed our specialized WaterGuard system to resolve the issue. WaterGuard is a drain system that sits below the basement floor and above the foundation footing, catching water that runs through basement walls. After catching this water, WaterGuard then filters the water into a sump pump. This system creates usable space that is free of water.

Jeff was tired of handling this frustrating water intrusion issue that was ongoing in his basement so he called Ayers. After an inspection was conducted it was recommended by our System Design Specialists that he could use our WaterGuard System and TripleSafe Sump Pump System. WaterGuard is a sub-floor drainage system placed along the basement's perimeter and works to catch any water seeping in through the walls. TripleSafe is a three pump system that fits in one trusty liner that will pump the water out and keep the water off his belongings. He was glad to get this water intrusion handled before matters got worse!

Aaron, a homeowner in East Lansing, MI, needed professional basement waterproofing to address moisture seeping through the egress window and walls, threatening his plans for an entertainment space. He wanted a dry, secure basement ready for finishing. Ayers Basement Systems provided the perfect solution, installing WaterGuard®, TripleSafe™, and the CleanSpace® Wall System to prevent water intrusion and improve air quality. Aaron was thrilled with the crew’s expertise and the long-term protection, knowing his basement is now protected and ready to become the entertainment hub he envisioned.

The homeowners had a little bit of water coming into their basement through the crack where the floor and the wall meet. It was not a ton of water, but they decided to get it checked and fixed anyway. The homeowners decision to waterproof their basement at the first sign of the water getting into their home only saved them time and money in the end. The problem won't resolve itself, it will only get worse so it is best to solve the problem right when it starts to happen. 

Our team also installed the SuperSump sump pump system. The SuperSump is a full featured system containing all the best components available. It includes the SuperLiner, which is an airtight lid that looks more attractive, keeps pests out and eliminates safety hazard of an open sump pump. It has a floor drain in case an unforeseen accident puts water on your basement floor. It includes a WaterWatch Alarm, which alerts you if the water level rises above the sump pump intake. It has a cast-iron pump to prevent overheating and burnout. It has a CleanPump pump stand that elevates the sump pump to prevent clogging.  It has a check valve to prevent pumped water from re-entering.  Lastly, it has an improved float valve to ensure long term performance.

This East Lansing homeowner has about an inch of standing water in the basement.He had a drain system that was old and not working properly so it would flood during rain. We installed the TripleSafe sump pump system for him. This sump pump provides 3 levels of protection in case of pump malfunction or a power outage. We also installed the IceGuard Discharge Line System. In the winter, water in the discharge line can freeze which causes back ups that could lead to flooding. With the IceGuard, the water has a secondary escape route through the slotted openings in the drain pipe. This ensures that any water your sump pump is removing from your basement is safely cleared away outside your home, preventing any backed up or frozen lines.
