Basement water problems

Standing water in this MI basement eventually allowed mold to grow.

Does your basement flood after a heavy rain? Or have you noticed water seeping in through a wall crack or around a basement window? There are many ways for water to get into your basement, but there's only one way to get it back out - Ayers Basement Systems! In business since 1981, Ayers Basement Systems has the skills and tools required to successfully waterproof your wet basement. We have thousands of happy customers who trust us to keep their homes safe and dry with the latest technology designed for basements. We know we can help you too!

Have you noticed any of these signs of basement water problems in your home?

  • Wet or damp basement floor or standing water
  • Leaking or damp basement walls or windows
  • Crystalline deposits on concrete surfaces
  • Musty odors, condensation, and humidity
  • Sump pump issues

Getting rid of moisture sooner rather than later is always a good idea because the longer you have water or humidity in your basement, the more likely it is that mold or rot will grow. The structure and air quality of your home will be negatively affected, and you won't be able to use the space for storage or any other purpose. And, if you want to sell your home in the future, you'll have to resolve these issues first - but it'll cost more then than it will now.

Ayers Basement Systems uses a line of Basement Systems waterproofing products to restore your basement and keep it dry. We have high-volume sump pumps, French drains, and efficient dehumidifiers to remove water and humidity from your basement. We also offer basement wall and flooring options to make your basement a nicer space, and other additional products include water heater protection rings, window wells, and much more.

Crawl space encapsulation and repair

Basements aren't the only part of the house that need protection from moisture. Crawl spaces are easy to forget because we don't usually need to visit them, but they are even more susceptible to the weather outside. Cold air in the crawl space can make the rest of your home uncomfortable. Water or humidity will lead to mold and rot that will harm the overall structural stability of your home.

Ayers Basement Systems can encapsulate your crawl space using a proven crawl space vapor barrier that is resistant to mold. We also have drainage matting and a crawl space sump pump and dehumidifier to completely dry out this space. These products are designed to fit in the smaller area of a crawl space. Not sure whether your crawl space is in need of repair? The experts at Ayers Basement Systems can let you know when we come to your home for your free estimate!

Foundation repair and concrete leveling in Grass Lake

Foundation repair

Wall braces help to support and straighten bowing walls.

A sturdy foundation is a crucial part of any home. But you can't always be sure that the soil around your property is up to the task. Certain types of soil absorb more water than others, meaning that they can expand and shrink and cause issues like foundation settlement. If your foundation is shifting, or if you're experiencing another foundation issue, Ayers Basement Systems's foundation repair specialists can help!

There are several common signs of foundation problems, including:

  • Cracks in floors and walls
  • Uneven, sloping, or sagging floors
  • Bowing walls
  • Sticking windows and doors
  • Tilting chimneys

Using foundation piers, wall braces, and other foundation repair products, we can offer stability and security to your home once again. We also specialize in concrete lifting and leveling to fix cracks and bumps in your driveway, sidewalk, or garage using PolyLevel®. Our methods of foundation repair and concrete leveling are much less disruptive to your property than traditional techniques, meaning you'll suffer less hassle than you would with another contractor.

If you're concerned about your foundation, basement, or crawl space, Ayers Basement Systems is here to help. As a local, family-owned and operated company, we care about our customers and always strive for complete satisfaction. We don't want you to live in a wet or structurally damaged home, and we have the services required to keep you safe. Schedule a free estimate in Grass Lake, MI today!

CarbonArmor Strips Repair a Garage Wall in Grass Lake, MI

A crack in the garage foundation was the reason behind the call from these Grass Lake, MI customers. The before photo shows the crack running vertically down the garage from the outside, but the damage of the spreading foundation wall could be seen on to the inside of the garage as well. Having already used our services for foundation repairs in the past, they knew they could trust us for this job as well.

To seal these cracks permanently, the crew used our CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcement system. Based on the innovative technology of aerospace engineers that is now used to support bridges, skyscrapers, and bomb shelters, CarbonArmor strips are a fast repair product that offers both a permanent solution and peace of mind. Once the soil was excavated, the wall cleaned and a high strength epoxy resin applied, the strips were placed over the crack to pull the wall together and keep it that way. After giving the strips time to dry, the crew replaced the soil that missing in the after photo and assured these customers that their damaged foundation problems were over for good.

Crawl Space With Moisture, Termite Damage Encapsulated In Grass Lake, MI

This crawl space had suffered some minor termite damage in the past and signs of some moisture in the crawl space were evident. We were able to help remedy the issues under this home by sistering some joists to ensure the strength of the structure. We also encapsulated the crawl space using our durable CleanSpace material. This material covers the ground and is carried up the walls and around piers to create an effective moisture barrier. We also installed SilverGlo insulation on the wall to reflect heat back into the crawl space during the cold months and increase energy efficiency. Lastly, we spray foamed the rim joists which are a common entry point for humid air. This helps to create a cleaner, dryer, brighter, and healthier space under the home.

Grass Lake, MI Walkway is Crumbling

One of our customers from Grass Lake called us about his walkway that was experiencing sagging and cracking. We gave him our professional help so that this would no longer be an issue. We installed PolyLevel which is an advanced polymer injection foam that we blast into the concrete which raises it level and makes it stronger than ever before. PolyLevel worked to raise and level out the concrete slabs while dealing with the weak soils below that were no longer able to hold the weight of the home above. We drilled multiple small holes into the concrete slabs in order to inject them with a polymer material that expanded to lift and level out the concrete. Once injected, the system only needed about 15 minutes to fully cure and the slabs were then stabilized and lifted to their proper level, and stronger than ever before. Now, this homeowner will not have to worry about this ever again.

We bought this house in December 2019. We noticed (when the house was empty) the floors weren't even. It appears consistent on all 3 floors (basement to 2nd story). My gut told me to have someone check the house, but then the pandemic happened, however it's something I think about every day as I walk through the house. The odd thing, the house isn't very old. The original owner bought it in August 2012. We had the house inspected before purchasing, but it evidently escaped the 2 inspectors. Thank you for your time, Connie
