Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Eliminating Leaks Once and for All in Augusta, MI

After heavy rains, Richard realized water was puddling up in his basement. Unsure why this was happening as he had a sump pump, he contacted us at Ayers Basement Systems. An Ayers Specialist inspected his home and determined that water was leaking through the cove joint of the home. Richard would later Install a French Drain System to catch any and all water coming into his house!

Conducting the Inspection

As seen above, water was pooling up in the basement, causing Richard to stress. The WaterGuard System took away the stress and stopped Richard from cleaning up water ever again!

Implementing the WaterGuard System

WaterGuard is a French drain system that sits below the basement floor and above the home's footing. The location of the drain means it is out of the mud zone, unlike other drains, and won't get clogged. Any water leaking through the walls will be caught by the drain and funneled to the sump pump!

Covering the System

The crew could cover the system once the WaterGuard system was set and installed. A liner goes over the drain, and then rocks are filled in over the liner. Lastly, concrete is poured back into place, eliminating the system from view! Richard was thrilled with the installation; it looked good and will stop water from becoming problematic!
