Jackson County, Michigan Waterproofing, Foundation & Concrete Leveling Expert

Steve and Betsy had a full length crack in their poured concrete basement. 3/4 of their basement is finished and they have a sump pump, however, water was entering at a considerable amount. The crack was getting larger and larger and they needed a solution.

Ayers installed FlexiSpan so the couple would no longer have to suffer from an unsightly crack that would keep allowing water to penetrate.

The FlexiSpan wall sealing system prevented water from entering their basement and they now can enjoy a dry, beautiful space.

Kirk had water leaking into his basement and needed a sump pump and proper drainage system.

Ayers Basement Systems was able to install a SuperSump sump pump, 4" IceGuard, WaterGuard drainage system and LawnScape discharge line.

Kirk's basement is now able to safely drain water to a designated area outdoors so his basement won't flood. The whole process took two days.

Matthew had a wet, leaky basement and needed a way to control the flow of water that entered. 

Ayers Basement Systems installed WaterGuard, WaterGuard Inspection Ports, a 4" IceGuard and a LawnScape Outlet, all to backup the TripleSafe sump pump that would be pumping water out of the basement.

All of these systems work together to create an even flow of water that will leave the basement and be pumped to an external discharge line outside.

Matthew no longer has to worry about a wet basement. The TripleSafe sump pump will keep his basement space dry and usable.

Pat was about to begin the process of finishing her basement when she called us. Before she moved forward, she wanted to add in a new window. Most basement windows are small rectangular block windows and don’t do much to highlight a finished basement. So Pat asked for our assistance.

Our system design specialist introduced Pat to our replacement egress windows. Egress windows extend below ground and include large wells to keep the window protected from water while allowing sunlight to enter. They were exactly what she was looking for, so the crew moved forward with the installation. The first step was excavating the soil where the well would be placed. After the soil was removed, the crew cut a large square in the wall to make room for the window. Once the window and well were laid into the ground, the crew backfilled the area around the well and installed a lid over the top. All the products are made of inorganic, waterproof material, so Pat’s window will be fully protected from rain and the elements. 

As is often the case, our customers had a few problems on their property, but it was the settling of their gardening building that prompted them to call. When the garage door for the building stopped closing properly, their contractor discovered that the support slab was cracked and the floor had sunk 2-3" in places. The culprit? Likely the nearby irrigation system, which helped the soil wash away and destabilized the foundation.

They also had a few leaning retaining walls and some slabs in their driveway that had shifted and settled, but at this time their main focus was the garage.

We used GeoLock Wall Anchors and PolyLevel to raise the slab and stabilize the walls, rerouted some drainage to circumvent the soil washout, and made plans to return in the future when they were ready to proceed with the other issues.

Mark and Sandy from Jackson, MI were dealing with several different foundation issues. Their biggest concerns were the two leaning retaining walls in their yard. The walls had started to lean because of the expanding soils putting pressure on the walls. Mark and Sandy were worried that the leaning walls might collapse completely if something wasn’t done about them.

To repair the walls and give Mark and Sandy their peace of mind back, our crew treated the retaining walls the same way they would treat bowing basement walls. After all, it's pretty much the same problem. Our Geo-Lock Wall Anchor System stops basements walls from bowing by anchoring the wall against the pressure, so the crew knew they could achieve similar results with the leaning retaining walls. Once the wall plates were attached to the side of the wall opposite the soil, steel rods were used to connect them to the anchors. The actual anchors were placed into deep, untouched soil about 20 feet away from the walls. After the installation of the anchors was complete and the stability of the wall ensured, the crew placed Hide-A-Way covers over the wall plates. Usually, the Hide-A-Way covers are used to cover up the wall plates in basements so that the repair is almost unnoticeable. But in Mark and Sandy’s case, the covers will also help protect the wall plates from the outside elements.

Mark and Sandy were so happy with our work, that they’ve already asked us to come out and help with their other foundation problems. 

Ann and Steven noticed that the crawl space support beams in their lake cottage were starting to sink. They suspected that the lake next to the cottage had started to wet the sandy clay soil. In turn, the clay settled and the crawl space forced the soil down further. They were terrified that the cottage might completely collapse if the beams weren’t replaced. After talking to the rest of the family, Ann and Steven gave us a call and requested for a crew to visit them in Rapid City, MI with a  solution.

The crew knew the solution to supporting and stabilizing the cottage would be with helical piers, but before they did so, they wanted to guarantee that the clay soil wouldn’t continue to settle. So before they began the pier installation, they added in a curtain drain between the sinking side of the cottage and the lake. The curtain drain will catch water before it has a chance to affect the soil below the cottage. To use the piers, the crew drove them into the deepest layers of the soil and attached them to the bottom of the crawl space. The piers created a more stable base for the cottage and leveled out the floor. Ann and Steven won't soon sink again.

Larry called because he'd had a sump pump and drain tile installed by another company a few years back. When he realized the sump was constantly running - potentially due to the high water table - he found that the company was no longer in business. He called us to check out their work and make any improvements needed to help the system run as it should, and to check out a crack in his basement wall.

While the sump was running fine, we installed WaterGuard that tied into it on the wall that had the leaking crack. We also used FlexiSpan to seal the crack and installed BrightWall on the basement walls to brighten up the appearance while helping direct water into the WaterGuard and sump pump.

Jennifer first called us years ago with a wet basement. They had a sump pump and had tried another fix, but nothing was working; the walls were still wet and the mortar between the blocks was crumbling. Then she reached out last year with a problem that had only gotten worse.

The project had three major components: waterproofing, electrical, and finishing.

We installed WaterGuard below-floor drain around the perimeter of the basement, and tied it into a new TripleSafe sump pump to take care of the water issues, and installed a new upgraded electrical panel with a dedicated circuit to make sure the sump pump had the power to run without risking a breaker blow that would affect the rest of the house.

Finally, we installed Brightwall panels on the affected walls to cover up the dismal, crumbling look and to help divert water. Brightwall panels are not only inorganic and waterproof, but they can be tied right into the WaterGuard to directly divert water.

Many years after waterproofing this basement, we got a call to add a little extra oomph before our customers put the house on the market. One section of the basement seemed to be taking longer to drain water from than the rest, which can happen when a basement has multiple low spots or the foundation settles to create such spots. 

We installed a SuperSump sump pump in the affected area, along with IceGuard and a Lawnscape outlet on the discharge line, to add some extra power to the basement's draining capability.

If you've ever bought or sold a home, you know there's a ten day inspection period in which the buyer gets any needed inspections in order to address problems and decide whether or not to proceed with the purchase. We often receive calls when a wet basement is discovered in this inspection period, and we make sure to get someone to the house in the required timeframe.

This home's basement was huge - and wet. We installed over 200 feet of WaterGuard below-floor drain to collect the water and keep it from flooding the basement, and tied in two SuperSump sump pumps to actively discharge that water. IceGuard, which keeps water from backing up in the event of a frozen discharge line in the winter, and Lawnscape outlets, which allow the water to discharge from a buried line for convenience, were installed on both pumps' discharge lines..

When Kelly N. of Jackson, MI started smelling a foul odor coming from her basement she knew a serious issue was at hand: mold. She didn't see any signs of water, but there was definitely moisture in the air causing mold to grow and ultimately prosper. This can create health issues such as asthma, and home issues such as sticking doors.

To solve her problem, we installed our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. This dehumidifier is self-draining, meaning it can collect up to 109 pints of water per day without its tray having to be emptied. Its powerful 300 CFM motor will circulate air throughout the damp crawl space, drying everything out and keeping it dry. The large cold coil surface of the dehumidifier helps it handle a 6,000 square foot crawl space, at 3 feet high. All in all, the SaniDry Sedona will prevent any further mold growth by removing all the moisture in Kelly's basement.

Jerry R. from Jackson, MI was experiencing cold air coming up form his crawl space. His floors were always cold, making his home uncomfortable. The reason cold air was coming up from the floor? His crawl space. The crawl space in Jerry's home was open to the earth, allowing all of the elements, including cold air, to enter. 

To help Jerry, we installed our CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. CleanSpace completely sealed off his crawl space from the elements, disallowing any cold air to sneak in. CleanSpace also locks out any water or moisture from getting into the crawl space, and uses its anti-microbial properties to prevent mold growth. 

Kate Y. of Jackson, MI moved into her one story 1960s house slightly over 2 years ago. She was told by her previous inspector that the unevenness in the floors was due to the age of the home. She later found that the home was simply built wrong, with the floor being an inch lower down the hall. 

To solve her problem, we installed our SmartJack crawl space stabilizer. SmartJack provides supplemental support to Kate's failing structure and can also often lift failing floor joists or beams, taking them back to their original position. The worry of a crumbling crawl space and slumping floor is no longer present for Kate!

Debra T. from Jackson, MI was experiencing cold air coming up from the floor in her family room. She believed the crawl space underneath the family room is not insulated, which makes it easy for cold air to enter up through the floor. Because she spends a lot of time in her family room, she needs the problem to be fixed. 

To help Debra, we installed our CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. CleanSpace is a 20mm thick plastic that lines the crawl space and completely seals off her crawl space from the elements, disallowing any cold air to sneak in. CleanSpace also locks out any water or moisture from getting into the crawl space, and uses its anti-microbial properties to prevent mold growth.

Carol S. noticed she had water leaking into her basement from the water line outside of the home. She resorted to putting buckets in the basement in an attempt to catch the water coming in. 

To solve Carol's problem, we first implemented our patented WaterGuard French drain system. WaterGuard rests below the basement floor and above the foundation footing to catch water that enters the basement. The water is then directed to the sump pump. 

Next, in order to cover any water damage on the basement walls, we installed our BrightWall basement wall panels. BrightWall is made of a rigid plastic that is waterproof and washable, and serves as a vapor barrier to prevent and humidity from entering the basement. Any water seepage from the backside of the BrightWall is then directed into the WaterGuard system, and into the sump pump. 

The last step we took in waterproofing Carol's basement was to install a Flood Ring on her sump pump to catch any water coming from the sump pump and redirect it back to WaterGuard. 

Edward D. was suffering from water issues in his basement before he called us. There was water in the corners of the basement even though there were several sump pumps in the home. The home was built in 1973 with cement block walls and his basement is partially finished.

Our solution? WaterGuard. The WaterGuard French drain system rests below the basement floor but above the foundation footing, collecting water that seeps in from the basement walls. Once that water is collected, it is redirected to the sump pump in the home to be pumped outside. 

Kristina P. from Pleasant Lake, MI had a dark, dirty crawl space that she wanted sealed off. With that being said, she gave us a call. 

We used our patented CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. CleanSpace is a 20mm thick plastic lining that when installed, completely seals off crawl spaces from the surrounding elements. No cold air, dirt, or water can get through this stuff. As a plus, this material is built with anti-microbial properties, warding off mold growth. 

Kristina, say goodbye to your nasty crawl space.

Alexander and Pat Z. needed our help to raise concrete slabs outside of their home. The first slab that needed attention was at the back of the home and the other was toward a barn located on the property. They wanted the problem fixed once and for all, before the settlement caused other issues to their home and barn. 

The PolyLevel system was installed to the raise the concrete slabs and stop them from settling again in the future. Several penny-sized holes were first drilled into the slab and then filled with lightweight, high-density polymers. After the polymers were injected, they began to expand and lift and level the concrete slabs and the cure time for PolyLevel was only about 15 minutes.

Several cracks formed on the slabs due to the settlement, which is why we sealed them with NexusPro joint sealer. This sealant prevents the cracks from shifting any further over time and fills them in to improve the look of the home. 

Blanche K. of Rives Junction, MI has a crawl space that was moist and musty smelling before we visited her. Some of the insulation was covered with moldy black spots, and she needed a solution -- and fast.

We installed a couple favorites of ours: the CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system and the SaniDry CX crawl space dehumidifier.

CleanSpace is a 20mm thick plastic lining that seals of Blanche's crawl space from the surrounding elements. No dirt, cold air, or water will be able to pass through this material. And as an added bonus, CleanSpace is developed with anti-microbial properties that prevent mold growth. 

The SaniDry CX is a self-draining dehumidifier that is small but mighty. It can collect up to 109 pints of water without its collection tray having to be emptied, making the convenience factor a huge bonus here.

The driveway and porch step on this Cement City home had sunk down several inches from its original location. The homeowner wanted to level the sunken slab and lift the settled porch to improve the look of the home and prevent any safety issues.

We used the PolyLevel system to level the sunken concrete. Several holes were drilled into the concrete slabs, which were then filled with specialized polymers. These polymers expanded to lift the slabs back to their proper level. The polymers were dense and lightweight to ensure the slab was lifted effectively while dealing with the weak soil issue below the slabs that caused them to sink in the first place.

Marilyn R. of Parma, MI was experiencing terrible side effects of the rain in her basement. Whenever it would rain heavily, water would end up every where in the basement -- on the walls and on the floor. Because of this, she gave us a call.

We installed our patented WaterGuard French drain system. WaterGuard rests below the basement floor and above the foundation footing, catching all the water that spills into the basement from the walls. After this water is caught it is directed to the sump pump to be pumped up and out of the home. The WaterGuard system keeps water out of your basement and off the floor for good. 

Michael F. of Rives Junction, MI had water leaking down the wall and pooling on the floor of his basement. This can cause damage not only to the basement but to the house itself. Doors and windows can start to stick and paint can peel off the walls. Thus, Michael reached out to us for a professional fix.

We installed two of our best waterproofing products: the TripleSafe sump pump system and the WaterGuard French drain system. The TripleSafe is sump pump that provides three levels of protection against water leakage. Whether it be normal water supply, heavy volumes of water, or in the case of a power outage, this sump pump will keep your basement dry. For normal water supply, the Zoeller ⅓ horsepower pump functions. At a heavier level, the Zoeller ½ horsepower pump activates. In the case of a power outage, the UltraSump backup sump pump will pump water on a backup battery.

The WaterGuard drain rests below the basement floor and above the foundation footing, collecting water that seeps into the basement from the walls. Once this water is collected it is redirected to the sump pump to be pumped up and out of the home. The TripleSafe, the sump pump in this case, works seamlessly with the WaterGuard system, making this duo foolproof. 

Rebecca Q. was looking for an effective solution that would stabilize her cracked and bowed block foundation wall. Luckily, our team of experts installed the CarbonArmor system that used carbon fiber straps that are 10x stronger than steel to hold the wall in place. A strong epoxy resin was first painted onto the wall at the location of each strap. The straps were then adhered to the wall and secured into place with steel brackets.

Scott M. of Jackson, MI was having water seep into his basement from the corner of the basement. This water presence in a basement can cause mold growth, musty odors, peeling paint and sticking doors and windows. For these reasons, Scott reached out to us for help.

We installed one of our favorite patented products: the WaterGuard French drain system. WaterGuard rests below the basement floor and above the foundation footing, collecting water that seeps into the basement from the walls. Once this water is collected in the drain, it is transported to the sump pump to be pumped up and out of basement.

Catherine L. from Lansing, MI was having water seep into her basement and create a pool of water. This can lead to mold growth, musty odors and general discomfort in the home. However, Ayers had a solution to Catherine's problem.

We installed two of our patented waterproofing products: the WaterGuard French drain system and the SuperSump premier sump pump system. WaterGuard rests below the basement floor and above the foundation footing, collecting all the water that seeps into the basement in its drain. After the water is in the drain, it is redirected to the sump pump – the SuperSump – to be pumped up and out of the home. 

The SuperSump is a sump pump specifically designed to keep your basement dry for long periods of time. Capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour, it is suitable for heavy water intrusion.

With these two installments, Catherine can live comfortably in her home once more.

Our customer called when a crack in the foundation underneath her porch started leaking water. We installed a full perimeter of WaterGuard below-floor drain system in the basement, and tied it into two sump pumps to ensure quick discharge of the water. The IceGuard system was installed on the discharge line to prevent winter backups due to frozen lines, and we attached a LawnScape outlet to the end of the discharge line. We also installed window well drains on the two existing windows to prevent them from leaking water into the basement.

The homeowners in Jackson, MI had water coming into their basement where the floor and the wall met. The water was starting to pool in some areas and started causing damage to their basement floor. They knew they needed to fixed the problem so they called Ayers Basement Systems. 

To combat this water our professional team installed our WaterGuard long lasting interior perimeter drainage system. The WaterGuard system sits on the top of the footing in order to prevent clogging from mud or debris. The system works by capturing water seepage from the floors and walls before it has a chance to damage anything. Once the water is trapped in the drain it is immediately directed to the sump pump. The sump pump then removes the water from the home keeping your basement clean and dry! 

Our professional team also installed the TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe is three sump pumps in one giving you triple protection. The first pump will effectively and efficiently remove water from the home. The second pump has a seperate discharge line and is more powerful. The second pump is there for you on the rare ocassions that you need it. The third pump is equipped with batteries and is there for you if the power goes out. The TripleSafe switches automatically so you do not need to worry about anything! 

Thanks to WaterGuard and the TripleSafe sump pump the homeowners basement is now clean and dry! 

The homeowners in Jackson, MI had a crawl space that was already waterproofed, but water was still getting into the area somehow. There was not a ton of water, but it was enough to cause concern. 

In order to stop this water our professional team installed the SuperSump sump pump. The SuperSump is a full featured system containing the best componently 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. 

Our team also installed the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. The SaniDry Sedona is the world's most efficient, high-performance dehumidifier and filtration system. When installed in your basement or crawl space, the Sedona will help prevent mold and reduce musty odors, giving you dry healthy air and total comfort. The Sedona is small in size, yet powerful enough to lower humidity in even the dampest environment, such as the basement or crawl space. 

Thanks to the SuperSump and the SaniDry Sedona the homeowners crawl space is now dry! 

The homeowners in Jackson, MI had a basement that flooded everytime there was a heavy rain. The Basement had a sump pump, but it was on the opposite side of where the water was coming in so it did not help much. They also had a partially finished basement so the water was starting to damage the things in the area. They knew they needed something to be done so they called Ayers Basement Systems. 

Our professional team installed the WaterGuard long lasting interior perimeter drainage system. The system sits on the top of the footing in the basement in order to prevent clogging from mud or other debris. WaterGuard works by trapping floor and wall seepage before it has a chance to damage the basement. Once the floor and wall seepage are in the drain the water is taken immediately to the sump pump. The sump pump then removes the water from the home! 

WaterGuard was a perfect solution for these homeowners because they had an existing sump pump that worked, but they just needed a way to direct the water to it. WaterGuard does just that and keeps their basement dry!

Renee has had an issue with water coming into her home for almost 25 years. She decided to call Ayers Basement Systems to resolve her problem once and for all. Our team of experts came in a waterproofed her basement.

We began by installing our WaterGuard Perimeter System. WaterGuard is installed around the perimeter of your basement to guide any water coming in to the the Triple Safe sump pump. We also installed a window well duct drain to work in conjunction with the WaterGuard System and Triple Safe. The well duct drains any water that comes in, from the existing egress window in Renee’s basement, to WaterGuard to the Triple Safe sump pump. Triple Safe is the mother of all sump pumps. This top-of-the-line sump pump includes three pumps in one liner. The first pump is a high quality pump, the second kicks on in the case the first can’t keep up with the amount of  water entering the basement, and the third cuts on in the case of a power outage. The Triple Safe ensures your basement is covered and kept dry in any situation.

Now that Renee’s home is protected from the inside, we begin outside by installing our Lawnscape Outlet. Lawnscape allows us to hide those ugly discharge lines underground. It provides an opening at the end of the line for the water to escape from your basement. Not only does it help the way your yard looks, it also prevents tripping hazards that usually occur from discharge lines just laying around. Finally, to make sure the basement is protected in the Winter, we install Iceguard. Iceguard safeguards your basement and gives the water a secondary location to escape when discharge lines freeze, instead of flowing back into your basement, keeping your basement dry all winter.

This customer contacted us because his crawlspace was giving off a very strong odor. This issue occurred because of the high water table in the area  letting water and moisture into the space, causing it to become humid and damp.

We first installed dimpled drainage matting on the floor of the crawlspace that helped move intruding water easily across the floor and into the sump pump. Next, we installed our CleanSpace liner that sealed off the crawlspace from theoutside enviornment such as dirt, water, moisture and cold/hot air. This liner is extremely durable and will last longer than the home probably will. This is perfect for fighting against mold.

A customer in Jackson called us about his driveway that had a crack that uncomfortable to drive over he wanted our proffesional help to fix it. We drove to his property and installed our PolyLevel technology. This is an advanced polymer injection foam that we blast into the concrete to level it out and make it stronger than ever. 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.

These Jackson, MI residents decided it was time to install an egress window in their home. Highly-satisfied with previous work we did in their home, these customers invited us back. We installed an egress window with a SunHouse basement window enclosure. The greatest benefits of this product include the fact that it prevents weed growth, keeps leaves, debris, and rain out. The SunHouse also allows more natural light into your basement. Adding this egress window surely increased the value of this customers home and gave them safety and peace of mind.

Sinking, uneven concrete can be dangerous, it can look bad and it can lower the resale value of your home. PolyLevel is a very easy way to fix your concrete. We drill penny size holes in the concrete and inject structural grade polymers in to raise the concrete back to its desired height. The polymers are waterproof so they won't wash out and they cure very quickly so your cement can be drove on almost instantly after the process is completed. 

David H. called us for a few reasons: Some of the walls in his home were cracked, his doors were sticking and the floors were sinking as well. These are all signs of foundation problems and they will continue to get worse and possibly dangerous until they are fixed. So have peace of mind and get the issues resolved, we are here to help and offer many different foundation solutions depending on your home. The best solution for this home was to install our helical piers. A helical pier is a type of steel pier that is used to permanently stabilize your home once and for all. There is minimal disturbance from installation and is quick to install compared to other solutions. 

Lucas from Grass Lake, MI was having water issues in his basement. His sump pump had been running full time the entire fall, and water was beginning to seep through the floor around where the sump pump was. In order to stop water from seeping in and prevent further damage, we decided to install our TripeSafe Sump Pump and our anti-freeze device, IceGuard.

TripleSafe has three sump pumps that all fit into one liner. This is important because three pumps won’t become overwhelmed with higher pumping demands like a single pump would. Also, if the power goes out in your home, the third pump serves as a battery-operated backup, meaning that it will take care of any business that needs to be handled until the power comes back on.

Sump pumps are designed to get water out of your basement and away from your house, but this can be an issue in the winter. The pipe can become blocked with snow and ice. Now if your pump runs, it won’t be able to get anything out and your basement will flood. With IceGuard, it’s designed on the outside of the house and automatically removes any water from the outside wall in case the pipe freezes. There are holes in the device that allow for the water to be ejected, but it is designed so water will not get out if the pipe is not frozen.

We received a call from Alexander in Grass Lake about a couple of areas on his property that needed to be leveled out. After going out for inspection, we saw that parts of his sidewalk and porch had begun to drop to fairly considerable levels. Despite how much they had sunk, it was still an easy fix with our PolyLevel injections. Our PolyLevel is extremely strong, yet still very light. It weighs only 4lbs. per cubic ft. compared to 120lbs. per cubic ft. for standard fill material. Despite its light weight, PolyLevel can support substantial loads; it typically provides greater lifting power than mudjacking. Thanks to our PolyLevel injections, Alexander’s sinking sidewalk and porch are good as new.

In the winter, water freezes. Well, winter is almost here. During these trying times, water in your pipes could potentially freeze and cause your sump pump to back up because sump pump discharge lines are fed outside the house. This obviously leads to water leakage in your basement and/or crawlspace. Luckily for you, we have the perfect solution: our IceGuard Discharge Line System. IceGuard fits right over the top of the discharge line to give water a secondary escape route in the event that it were to freeze. If the main line is working properly without any freezing, then water will flow through their like it normally would, but if that wasn’t the case and the discharge lines began to freeze, then IceGuard kicks in and saves the day. Best of all, IceGuard is compatible with all of our sump pump systems.

 This Grass Lake, MI resident knew that in order to avoid any future trouble, it was time for him to go with IceGuard. Although there wasn’t any moisture in his basement at the time, he could see where moisture had been before, and there’s a very good chance that this particular moisture could have leaked in due to frozen discharge lines in previous winters. Now that he has IceGuard installed, this will never be an issue again.

Around here, freezing temperatures are inevitable, so getting the IceGuard system now could save you from a multitude of future issues.

We received a call from a resident in Grass Lake, MI stating that cracks were beginning to form at a fast pace in her basement cement wall. Luckily for this homeowner, she called right away, and we were able to get out there and take a look at it for ourselves before any damage occurred. Our suggestion was to install the CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System. If you have a foundation wall that is bowing or cracking, this is the absolute best solution to solving the problem. Our CarbonArmor strips are made from a fiber reinforced polymer that’s ten times stronger than steel and is specifically designed for this purpose. It’s also the same technology that the Army Corps of Engineers developed to reinforce bomb shelters, skyscrapers, and bridges. The best thing about CarbonArmor is that it requires no exterior excavation, meaning that it’s a very clean and quick installation. Thanks to CarbonArmor stabilizing her foundation, this homeowner won’t see the cracks in her wall lead to future issues.

This homeowner called us because his driveway was sinking in spots making an unappealing appearance. Sinking concrete can also be a safety concern and can significantly reduce the resale value of your home. All of those concrete concerns are problems that our PolyLevel can fix. 

PolyLevel is a high density polymer that is injected in penny sized holes that are drilled in your concrete. The material is waterproof so it won't wash away after it's been injected. It also cures very quickly and can be driven on in about 15 minutes after the work is complete. PolyLevel is a much cheaper and less invasive option than completely replacing your concrete. We can use PolyLevel on driveways, around pools, sidewalks, and anywhere else a concrete slab could use some lifting.

Douglas in Grass Lake, MI has had a sinking floor in his garage for over 14 years. It’s something that progressively has gotten worse year by year, and it’s gotten to the point where it needs to be fixed. Luckily for Douglas, we have everything he needs in order to get his garage floor back to the level it was at 14 years ago. This is a perfect job for our PolyLevel injections.

 Our PolyLevel injections harness the expansive force of a structural grade geopolymer to provide fast concrete leveling, fill voids in soil, as well as strengthening soil that has poor load-bearing qualities.

 The polymer consists of two separate liquids that are combined right at the injection nozzle to create a chemical reaction that turns the blended ingredients into expanding, high-density foam. The foam then flows into any voids that are present and between loose soil particles, expanding to about 15 times its original volume. This expansive action effectively lifts settled concrete.

 One thing that goes over well with our system is that the process is also extremely quick. It only takes about 15 minutes to cure, and at that point it’s ready for full loading. This is especially important for Douglas’ situation, because if he needed to use his garage soon after we finished, he would be able to because he wouldn’t have to worry about curing taking more than 15 minutes.

At Ayers we pride ourselves on treating you and your home with respect. We want to change the way that contractors are seen and give a positive image. We offer many different options for waterproofing your crawl space or basement and we even do foundation work and concrete leveling. So please give us a call at the office so we can set up a FREE inspection and send a system design specialist out to your home.

James L. contacted us here at Ayers to have his crawl space checked out. He had a liner on the floor of his crawl space already but it wasn't holding up and was just loosely installed. Our CleanSpace liners are very thick and can be walked on, have boxes stored on and so much more after installation. There is no worries about the liner holding up, it also is fitted to your space so it will cover all the floor, every wall and all the pillars. CleanSpace is made with an additive as well that doesn't allow the growth of mold and it ensures that all critters and outside elements stay outside. 

Connie, a customer and friend of ours from Jackson, MI began observing water puddles in her basement, near the perimeter walls. She ignored the problem for a little hoping it would go away but began seeing it worsen. Hoping to remedy the problem Connie put cement in all the cracks and leveled her outside walkway near the home. After a year of no issues Connie thought her basement problems were finally over. However, after the intense rain this year, her water troubles began again. Connie knew she needed answers, so she picked up her phone and began an online search for local waterproofing experts.

After reading several positive Ayers customer reviews, Connie’s search quickly ended with us! She welcomed us into her home, where we diagnosed the current water issues and recommended WaterGuard to remedy the problem. WaterGuard was installed along the home's footing, beneath the concrete, the installment collects water along the base of the perimeter walls and safely directs it to the sump pumps for discharge from her home. With an aging sump pump in her basement, Connie elected to have us install a SuperSump. The SuperSump is a sump pump system that contains an air tight lid, floor drain, pump stand, and a pump alarm. These are the essential features needed to help keep a basement dry! Thanks to the efforts of Ken Breitner and the rest of our team, the water issues that have haunted Connie and her basement will no longer be a worry.

Lifting your entire home sounds like it would be a messy and time consuming process. Think again - the three photos attached prove how clean, easy, and non-invasive installing the Helical Pier system is. Underneath the area where the American flag once was are 3 helical piers that have lifted and stabilized this home. 

Under this home are rust-resistant steel tubes known as piers. At the bottom of the piers are two half-moon shaped blades, which is why they are called helical piers, that allow them to reach deep into soil where humans have never been. Helical piers go beyond weak soil with our high-pressured water system that reaches 10-15 feel below the home where the sturdiest soil is. Then, the piers are attached to your home like a Lego piece. A bracket connects the pier to your home. From there - we can lift your home to its original position.

Thanks to the helical piers the cracks in your home are closed, your floors become level, and Ayers rototilled your garden space. 

Violet's basement used to be completely finished, but due to water damage they had to take some of it apart and now it is only partially finished. In order to prevent any more water damage our team installed WaterGuard and IceGuard in Violet's basement. WaterGuard is a basement drainage system created to keep your basement dry. Unlike many other drains, WaterGuard is installed inside your basement in order to avoid it being clogged. This drain will catch any leakage from higher walls or floors before it reaches your basement floor. IceGuard is a sump pump discharge line system. Even when frozen, this system allows water to leave. Therefore, this system prevents flooding even in freezing temperatures.

This homeowner called us becaue their floor was sinking. Their kitchen floor is over the crawl space and the floors are starting to sink. When we went to inspect the home, we saw that the foundation was starting to settle. We insatlled Helical Piers to stabilize the foundation. There is quick, year round installtion and can help lift foundations back to the original level.

Kyle noticed that he had water damage in his basment on the walls and on the floor. He wasn't sure where the water was coming from or what to do about it so he gave us a call to help him find a solution. We installed WaterGuard which is a French drain that is designed to be installed below the floor slab. This drain collects water that seeps through basement walls and drains it to your sump pump. We also installed the SaniDry to keep the basement dry. SaniDry has a powerful blowing motor that keeps dry air circulating throughout the space, drying out your basement or crawl space. Collected water can be drained into a sump pump pit, a section of your perimeter drain, or away via a condensation pump. This dehumidifier is super efficient and has a small size so it doesn't take up much space in your basement.

Also, one of the pumps is battery-powered so it protects your basement from flooding even during power outages.

Pam had water going into her basement from her window. She called our team and so we installed an egress window. Most windows offer minimal protection against outside air and moisture entering the home due to poor insulation around the window. Egress windows will help ventilate your indoor areas and prevent unwanted allergens from entering your house. 

Water was entering a homeowner's basement and her original sump pump could not keep up with the amount of water intrusion. She called our team and so we installed the TripleSafe Sump Pump System. This system prevents flooding in extreme weather conditions and even power outages due to it having a battery powered pump. Most importantly, this system can handle high pumping demands due to it having three pumps.

In addition to installing other systems, our team installed WaterGuard, IceGuard and SaniDry to waterproof a homeowner's basement. WaterGuard is a basement drainage system created to keep your basement dry. Unlike many other drains, WaterGuard is installed inside your basement in order to avoid it being clogged. This drain will catch any leakage from higher walls or floors before it reaches your basement floor. The IceGuard Sump Pump Discharge Line System allows water to leave even when the discharge line is frozen. Therefore, this system prevents flooding even in freezing temperatures. The SaniDry XP Basement Dehumidifier never needs to be emptied because the water drains automatically. Also, it is ten times more powerful than typical dehumidifiers.

Kristine's home needed some foundational help so she called our team. We installed SmartJack, a system produced to halt your sagging floors. Floors above crawl spaces are vulnerable due to the moisture and soils in your crawl space. The SmartJack system is a permanent fix to these issues. It uses steel columns, threaded rods and a solid base to address any issues your crawl space may introduce to your floors.

The WaterGuard system catches any water leakage from higher walls and floors. TripleSafe is a sump pump system that is battery powered to prevent flooding even during power outages. Lastly, the IceGuard Sump Pump Discharge Line System allows water to leave even when it is frozen.

A customer had water entering his home near his basement window so he called our team. We installed an egress basement window and well in order to prevent any further water intrusion. Most windows offer minimal protection against outside air entering the home due to poor insulation around the window. Egress windows will help ventilate your indoor areas and prevent unwanted allergens from entering your house. Also, Egress Windows provide a safe exit in case of emergency so they are required in finished basement living areas. In addition to having a safe exit in your basement, these windows provide lots of natural light.

A customer had heavy water vapor in her basement and needed to get rid of all the moisture in the air. So our team installed the SaniDry XP Basement Dehumidifier. This dehumidifier never needs to be emptied because the water drains automatically. In addition, it is ten times more powerful than typical dehumidifiers. The conditions in this customer’s basement will greatly improve by removing water vapor because it will prevent the growth of mold and decrease the humidity.

This dehumidifier will greatly improve your conditions in your basement by removing water vapor which will prevent the growth of mold.

Nadine has window wells in her basement that are starting to erode. Erosion can lead to unwanted water coming in through where the well has cracked and eroded. Our team came out and repaired the wells with the SunHouse Basement Window Enclosure. This enclosure is made from extremely durable plastic so it won't rust, erode, or need to be painted in the future. Nadine also opted in to have the well include the SunHouse plastic cover which will keep out pests, water, and debris, but still ensure you get natural sunlight in your basement or crawl space. Now Nadine will be able to enjoy her sunlight without worrying about the consequences of an eroded window well. 

Charlie has a sinking corner in his home where the new addition was put on. Upstairs he is struggling with cracks in the drywall and in the foundation. This could be due to settling soil or increased moisture in that part of the home so our team tackled both. For moisture, our team installed CleanSpace with Spray Foam Insulation. For the foundation, our team installed Helical piers and SmartJacks. 

Clean space is an uninterrupted vapor barrier designed to keep out any unwanted pests, moisture, and mold. This barrier restricts airflow and therefore makes controlling the temperature of the home much easier. CleanSpace is applied to the floors and walls and wrapped around pillars and piers carefully to ensure that the space looks clean and refreshed. Combined with spray foam insulation this will ensure that their addition stays warm in the winter. 

Sometimes after homes are built they can experience foundation settling if the soil under them expands and contracts substantially with weather conditions. This can cause a plethora of foundation problems including cracking and bowing walls, foundation shrinkage or expansion, and water in the basement. Helical Piers stabilize settling foundations by connecting the foundation of a home to load-bearing soil by drilling long piers into the ground under a home. The permanent solution is less invasive than it sounds and lasts a lifetime and more. Above ground, SmartJacks support sagging floor joists and beams.  Floors above basements and crawl spaces are vulnerable due to the damp nature of the lowest floor. The SmartJack system is a permanent fix to these issues. It uses steel columns, threaded rods, and a solid base to address any problems your basement may have. Installing this system usually takes less than a day and it provides immediate stabilization.

All of these systems will put a halt to any sagging the corner of his home may have above and underground. He will also have a waterproofed home for any weather that may come his way so moisture does not cause any further problems in his home. 

Suzette has severe asthma and needs to make sure her house air is filtered correctly. When you have unwanted moisture in your home it also invites in unwanted allergens like dust mites. This can be really harmful for someone with asthma or allergies. To ensure that the basement stays as dry as possible our team installed WaterGuard, the SuperSump Plus, and IceGuard.

The WaterGuard drain is designed to capture water seepage through the walls and any leaks along where the floor and the wall meet. It’s large in diameter and is easy to get into making clogging extremely unlikely. On top of that, it is faster, easier, and less expensive than outdoor drains and will be nearly invisible once the concrete is replaced and dried. The SuperSump Sump Pump has a unique lid design so that water can drain down but the damp air will not sneak back up into your space. When there is an indication of flooding an alarm will sound to alert you so you have plenty of time to take action and additionally you can also have a battery-powered backup installed so your pump will work in power outages.The IceGuard System makes sure water is expelled from the house in freezing temperatures like the ones we have in Michigan winters. This ensures homeowners do not have to worry about frozen water blocking the pipes and drainage system. 

All of these products will ensure that Suzette can live comfortably in her home. Her basement will be dry and allergen-free permanently, taking a huge stressor out of the picture for Suzette.

Randy had cracks in his floor that allowed water to come up into his basement. The home was built in 1957 and has noticeable water damage after the water has been flowing in for the last 9 years and maybe before that. Our crew came out and installed WaterGuard, IceGuard, and the SaniDry XP. 

The SaniDry XP drains automatically so you don't have to worry about emptying the water yourself. It will control the humidity and make sure to stop mold growth, kill dust mites, and make your whole house healthier.

These systems will make Randy’s older home feel brand new. They will also ensure there is no further water damage and no future mold growth. 

Robert had unwanted moisture in his basement and let's be real, it was causing problems. Unwanted moisture leads to mold, allergens, and other nasty stuff you do not want in your house. To remedy this he needed to make sure his crawl space wasn't exposed to the outside world, and completely waterproofed. Our team came in and installed CleanSpace, an EverLast door, and the SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. 

The SaniDry Sedona is more powerful than any other dehumidifier and drains automatically so you don't have to worry about emptying the water yourself. It will control the humidity and make sure to stop mold growth, kill dust mites, and make your whole house healthier. Clean space is an uninterrupted vapor barrier designed to keep out any unwanted pests, moisture, and mold. This barrier restricts airflow and therefore makes controlling the temperature of the home much easier. CleanSpace is applied to the floors and walls and wrapped around pillars and piers carefully to ensure that the space looks clean and refreshed. 

Typical wood crawl space doors can deteriorate over time and can allow insects and other pests to get in your crawl space. Not to mention, the wood can leave room for outside air which makes the space cold and damp. Everlast doors are made from thick PVC Plastic and secured with weatherproof knobs. Unlike wood, it won't shrink or deteriorate over time and it won't require any maintenance. Once installed, the door will ensure that your space is sealed off from outside intrusions and keeps the space warm. 

Mary and Josh were having trouble with both a deteriorating foundation and bowing walls. Having a compromised foundation is really dangerous for those living in the house. Even though the threat of collapse may not be pressing in the beginning stages, that's where the house is headed so the homeowner must intervene as fast as they can. Mary and Josh did that and our team came out and installed SmartJacks and GeoLock Wall Anchors. 

SmartJacks support sagging floor joists and beams.  Floors above basements and crawl spaces are vulnerable due to the damp nature of the lowest floor. The SmartJack system is a permanent fix to these issues. It uses steel columns, threaded rods, and a solid base to address any problems your basement may have. Installing this system usually takes less than a day and it provides immediate stabilization.

The Geo-Lock Wall Anchor System repairs walls that are sliding inwards, bowing, or buckling. A wall anchor will be installed inside your home and extend outward towards stable, hard-packed soil around your home to anchor it in place. This prevents any further movement permanently and is installed with minimal disruption to your home or your lawn. We can even conceal the anchors with our Hide-A-Way covers for a more finished appearance.

Both of these systems will work to support Josh and Mary’s home indefinitely. They will not have to worry about collapse, flood, or any other problems that may come from a compromised foundation. 

Gary was experiencing some bowing walls and weak foundation. He needed some reinforcement and a system to straighten his walls so our team came out to install PowerBrace and SmartJacks. SmartJacks support sagging floor joists and beams.  Floors above basements and crawl spaces are vulnerable due to the damp nature of the lowest floor. The SmartJack system is a permanent fix to these issues. It uses steel columns, threaded rods, and a solid base to address any problems your basement may have. Installing this system usually takes less than a day and it provides immediate stabilization. PowerBrace puts any bowing, buckling, or tilting walls back in their place. The system will stop any further damage. The steel I-beams are secured to the joists with steel brackets above the wall. This system is installed quickly with no exterior excavation and installs quickly with minimal disruption in your home. Gary now has a stable home and is protected against any foundation issues he may have had before. He is also protected against future collapse and further problems. 

Cathy’s 1920’s home has always had a musty smell in the crawl space. Many people write off these smells as just a crawl space smell or a basement smell and think there is nothing they can do about it. Usually a musty smell means there's something more, like mold or moisture, in the lowest floor of the house. To get rid of the moisture and prevent/stop the mold, our team came out and installed the SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier and CleanSpace. 

Clean space is an uninterrupted vapor barrier designed to keep out any unwanted pests, moisture, and mold. This barrier restricts airflow and therefore makes controlling the temperature of the home much easier. CleanSpace is applied to the floors and walls and wrapped around pillars and piers carefully to ensure that the space looks clean and refreshed. The SaniDry Sedona is more powerful than any other dehumidifier and drains automatically so you don't have to worry about emptying the water yourself. It will control the humidity and make sure to stop mold growth, kill dust mites, and make your whole house healthier. 

With these two systems, Cathy’s basement will be dry. Not only will Cathy’s basement be dry, all mold will be stopped in its tracks which means no more allergens, or smell. Cathy’s crawl space is protected and now so is she. As always we are grateful she recognized that musty smells aren’t forever and she chose us to figure it out.

This Jackson homeowner had some water issues in her basement. The water leaks in when there is rain and she knew exactly where it was coming in. We installed the WaterGuard French Drain System. This perimeter drain collects water that seeps into the area and sends it out of the home. It is also installed under the floor but atop the foundation so it doesn't get clogged. The concrete is restored after the installation giving a clean appearance so you do not have to worry about an unsightly drain around the basement! 

William and Janet had a crack in their basement wall and there were signs of bowing. There was no water intrusion through the crack but it has been there since the home was built and was slowly getting worse. We installed GeoLock Anchors to stop any further movement of the wall. These work by extending from your wall into the hard, stable soil beyond the home. They anchor into the soil to brace the foundation wall to stop any further movement. GeoLock Anchors are installed with minimal disruption to your yard and they don't take up any useable basement space! 

Saburo had a driveway where some concrete slabs had started to settle. We used PolyLevel to lift and level the sunken slabs. PolyLevel is a strong foam that is injected under the slabs. It is waterproof and stable so it won't get washed out by water or react with the soils underneath it. The best part is it cures in about 15 minutes so in just a short amount of time, the driveway can be full load bearing!

Every time it rains, David gets water in a corner of his partially finished basement. He called us to see if there was a solution to his problem. We installed the WaterGuard which is a French Drain that is under the floor to collect the water that seeps into the area. The water is then sent to the sump pump to be expelled outside of the home. We also installed a new sump pump system, the TripleSafe, that provides three levels of protection to the home in case of pump malfunction or a power outage and peace of mind for the homeowners.

Joan has to go down to her crawl space because of her furnace and it gives her the creeps. She wants to not be creeped out by going down there anymore. There is also a problem with critters getting in and moisture when the AC is running. We started by laying down Drainage Matting which has dimples in it to allow the flow of water, if any, under the liner to direct water to the sump pump. We then installed the CleanSpace Crawl Space Vapor Barrier which a thick, durable liner. This liner keeps humidity and water vapor from entering the space as well as making it inhospitable to pests. Lastly, we installed the SaniDry Sedona, a basement dehumidifier that dries out the space.

There was a musty smell coming from the crawl space and the carpet in this Grass Lake home. Lisa has respiratory issues and is worried that there is mold in her crawl space. Upon inspection we found that the main beam in the crawl space had broken due to rot. We encapsulated her crawl space as well as adding support to to her floors. We started with SmartJacks to stabilize the floors and keep them at a level position. We then installed thee CleanSpace liner to encapsulate the crawl space and keep out water vapor or humidity. Lastly, we installed the SaniDry Sedona to keep the crawl space dry and clean. This dehumidifier continuously blows dry air throughout the space to dry it out, eliminates damp, musty odors, and filters mold spores, dust mite droppings, dust and other particles.

William had a bowing and cracked wall in his basement due to over 30 years of bowing. Luckily there were no signs of intruding water yet, but the crack was widening. He called our team and we came out and installed GeoLock Wall Anchors. The Geo-Lock Wall Anchor System repairs walls that are sliding inwards, bowing, or buckling. A wall anchor will be installed inside your home and extend outward towards stable, hard-packed soil around your home to anchor it in place. This prevents any further movement permanently and is installed with minimal disruption to your home or your lawn. We can even conceal the anchors with our Hide-A-Way covers for a more finished appearance. Now William won’t have to worry about intruding water and just like that, 30 years of bowing is corrected.

Mark and Vickie’s home showed some signs of foundation settling. There was a noticeable drop in the floor and the jacks that were in place already didn’t seem to be doing their job. Our team came out and replaced the old jacks with SmartJacks. SmartJacks support sagging floor joists and beams.  Floors above basements and crawl spaces are vulnerable due to the damp nature of the lowest floor. The SmartJack system is a permanent fix to these issues. It uses steel columns, threaded rods, and a solid base to address any problems your basement may have. Installing this system usually takes less than a day and it provides immediate stabilization. Now Mark and Vickie can be sure their foundation is supported permanently. 

David was experiencing mild flooding in the corner of his home every time it rained. There was a sump pump but it was extremely outdated and not prepared to handle the amount of water coming into his basement. Our team came out and installed a full waterproofing system including WaterGuard, IceGuard, and TripleSafe.

The WaterGuard drain is designed to capture water seepage through the walls and any leaks along where the floor and the wall meet. It’s large in diameter and is easy to get into making clogging extremely unlikely. On top of that, it is faster, easier, and less expensive than outdoor drains and will be nearly invisible once the concrete is replaced and dried. The IceGuard System makes sure water is expelled from the house in freezing temperatures like the ones we have in Michigan winters. This ensures homeowners do not have to worry about frozen water blocking the pipes and drainage system. The TripleSafe sump pump system offers three different levels of support when it comes to pumping water out of your basement. There is one pump for everyday normal levels of water, one, more powerful, pump for heavier volumes of water, and one battery-operated pump that will keep you protected in power outages. 

Now David can let the rain fall without worrying about the consequences to his basement.

Christine's 150-year-old brick farmhouse was starting to rapidly show its age. Weathering and damage over the years have led to cracking and dividing between the bricks. The foundation has started to move so much that she can hear the drywall tape popping off. This is making Christine feel unsafe and unstable in her own home so our team came out and installed SmartJacks. SmartJacks support sagging floor joists and beams.  Floors above basements and crawl spaces are vulnerable due to the damp nature of the lowest floor. The SmartJack system is a permanent fix to these issues. It uses steel columns, threaded rods, and a solid base to address any problems your basement may have. Installing this system usually takes less than a day and it provides immediate stabilization. Now that we have stabilized the foundation, Christine can feel safe, secure, and at ease in her home.

Jamie and Brain want to replace a window they have in their basement and make it an egress. They want to finish the basement for their son to move into and since this is their forever home, they want things done right.

We started by installing the egress window in the basement. This window is larger in size than most basement windows and is installed with a window well that has steps in it to allow for safe exits in case of an emergency. The large window also allows more natural light into the room making it more inviting!

To help prep the basement to be finished, we installed the WaterGuard drain system and Basement to Beautiful to Beautiful Wall Panels. The WaterGuard is an under the floor drain that collects water as is seeps into the space and sends it to the sump pump to be discharged out of the home. The Basement to Beautiful panels are insulated and help prepare the space for the owners custom wall paneling. They also separate the finished walls from the foundation walls to avoid cold spots.

This Jackson family wants to finish part of the basement and create an office or 4th bedroom. To do this, they want the area waterproofed and an egress window added. 

We started with installing the egress window as it is required if you have a finished room in the basement. The egress is there for safe exits in case of emergencies. The large window also lets natural light into the room making it appear cleaner, larger, and more welcoming. 

We then moved on to waterproofing where we installed the WaterGuard, Basement to Beautiful Panels and Elite Planking. The WaterGuard is a drain that is installed under the floor but above the foundation as to not clog. The drain collects water and sends it to the sump pump to be discharged outside of the home. The Basement to Beautiful panels are insulated wall paneling that prepare the room for custom finished panels. They keep the space warm as well as separating the foundation walls from the panels to avoid any cold spots. Lastly, the Elite Planks are flooring that looks like wood but has the benefit of being waterproof!

Lisa really just wanted her crawl space cleaned up. There was no sign of mold or standing water but there was a musky smell and it just looked dark, dingy, and gross. Some animals had died down there and there was plenty of debris down there that she wanted to clean up. This is a great way to prevent your crawl space from collecting more issues that eventually lead to more serious and more expensive problems. To clean up her space and address some of the slight foundation problems our team noticed when they arrived, our team installed CleanSpace, an EverLast Crawl Space Door, and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. 

CleanSpace is an uninterrupted vapor barrier designed to keep out any unwanted pests, moisture, and mold. This barrier restricts airflow and therefore makes controlling the temperature of the home much easier. CleanSpace is applied to the floors and walls and wrapped around pillars and piers carefully to ensure that the space looks clean and refreshed.

Typical wood crawl space doors can deteriorate over time and can allow insects and other pests to get in your crawl space. Not to mention, wood leaves room for outside air which makes the space cold and damp. Everlast doors are made from thick PVC Plastic and secured with weatherproof knobs. Unlike wood, it won't shrink or deteriorate over time and it won't require any maintenance. Once installed, the door will ensure that your space is sealed off from outside intrusions and keeps the space warm. 

The SaniDry Sedona is more powerful than any other dehumidifier and drains automatically so you don't have to worry about emptying the water yourself. It will control the humidity and make sure to stop mold growth, kill dust mites, and make your whole house healthier. 

Now Lisa’s crawl space is cleaned up and ready to be used for storage. By taking preventative measures, Lisa also helped her future self by avoiding further costs and problems.

Eric had a dirt floor crawl space that was letting in moisture, allergens, debris, and humidity. This is pretty typical of dirt floor crawl spaces because they are exposed to all the outdoor elements. This has led to some sagging in the floor above Eric’s crawl space as well. To take care of his crawl space and foundation needs, our team came and installed CleanSpace, an EverLast Crawl Space Door, SmartJacks, and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. 

CleanSpace is an uninterrupted vapor barrier designed to keep out any unwanted pests, moisture, and mold. This barrier restricts airflow and therefore makes controlling the temperature of the home much easier. CleanSpace is applied to the floors and walls and wrapped around pillars and piers carefully to ensure that the space looks clean and refreshed.

The SmartJack system is a permanent fix to these issues. It uses steel columns, threaded rods, and a solid base to address any problems your basement may have. Installing this system usually takes less than a day and it provides immediate stabilization.

With all these systems, Eric is protected from all outdoor elements and is now living with better air quality and less stress. He can even repurpose his crawl space now that there is no dirt floor. 

Jamie and Brian want to replace one of their basement windows and install an Egress window. There is an unfinished room that they are hoping to finish and have their soon move into. An egress window is a larger window that has a well with stairs or a ladder outside of it. It allows for a safe exit in case of emergencies and is required if there is a finished room in the basement. In addition to safety, the large window lets more natural light into the space which makes it look larger, cozier, and cleaner!

Tom and his wife have a concrete slab near the front porch that has settled as well as the step to the front porch. It has not fallen a lot but Tom's wife recently had knee surgery so he wanted the issue fixed so that her and any guests could be safe around the home. We used PolyLevel to lift the concrete and level it out. PolyLevel is a waterproof, stable foam that is injected under the concrete to raise it back up and wont't get washed away or react with the soils. The whole process takes less than an hour so it can be full load bearing in a short amount of time. To seal the joints in the concrete we used NexusPro. This is a sealant that prevents water and debris from getting under the concrete and degrading it from below. 

Patrick’s staircase was settling quickly and one of the steps had a deep crack in it, causing it to pull away from the staircase. Having a loose and uneven step is a huge liability. Someone could trip or the step could come loose. To level the step back out our team came out and installed PolyLevel. 

PolyLevel injections are designed to fix sinking and cracking concrete slabs by bringing them back to their original level. This is achieved by using polyurethane foam. The foam expands and has a high density in order to raise the concrete. The process is simple and done by drilling small holes into the concrete and then inserting the foam into the holes. The foam is completely waterproof, minimally invasive, and lasts forever. 

Now Patrick can be assured that his steps are stabilized and even so he, or anyone else, can walk up to the front door without any worry. Not to mention the staircase looks brand new after the small upgrade.

Don and his wife bought a cabin in January and are hoping to retire in it sometime within the next 5-10 years. When they bought it, there was heavy water intrusions, the owners were sucking up about 1-2 gallon of water, in the basement where the waterline comes through the wall. They are in the process of finishing the basement but that has been put on hold due to the water. They want to get everything taken care of before they retire full time to keep the home safe.

We started by installing the TripleSafe sump pump to provide the home with 3 levels of protection from water even in cases of a power outage or pump failure. This sump pump also gives the homeowner peace of mind that their home is protected and dry. We then installed the WaterGuard Below Floor Drain to collect the water that leaks in and sends it to the sump pump to be discharged outside of the home. The drain is installed under the floor- as the name states- but above the foundation to be kept out of the "mud zone" where it could clog. After installation, all concrete is restored so you won't have an unsightly drain in your basement space. Lastly, we installed BrightWall which creates a vapor barrier for the basement to keep out humidity and water vapor and prevents mold growth. It is made of plastic sheets that are attached to the wall and is 100% waterproof and washable. It works with the perimeter drain to keep water out of the space and due to the white color, gives the basement a cheerful, clean look!

Genevieve’s front porch is made of all brick and concrete and is slowly pulling away from her house. This can cause significant damage to her home and make it difficult to use her front porch. On top of that there are cracks starting to form in her driveway. This is most likely due to settling. To solve both of her problems our team came out and installed PolyLevel. PolyLevel injections are designed to fix sinking and cracking concrete slabs by bringing them back to their original level. This is achieved by using polyurethane foam. The foam expands and has a high density in order to raise the concrete. The process is simple and done by drilling small holes into the concrete and then inserting the foam into the holes. The foam is completely waterproof, minimally invasive, and lasts forever. Now Geneveieve’s porch and driveway look brand new and she didn’t even have to go through days of trouble to fix it.

Mrs. Juhasz moved in to help with her mother and found water leaking into her unfinished basement. After being referred to Ayers, our inspector Brad found the water coming from the crawl space. With a noticeable smell coming from the basement, work had to be done on the crawl space and foundation.

To rectify the damage done to the crawl space, our foreman used a SmartJack system to reintroduce support in an area where structural support was needed. SmartJack is comprised of steel beams anchored to concrete buried into the ground of the foundation, and affixed to the top of the beam are brackets to remain secured to the crawl space frame. After, the RimJoists were installed with insulation adding to the protection of the framework of the ceiling. The crawl space was then fitted with a CleanSpace lining, an anti-microbial lining to prevent the kind of mold buildup Mrs. Juhasz encountered.

The basement was exposed to enough moisture that the area was fitted with a drain system placed along the perimeter and installed between the basement floor and foundational slab named WaterGuard. Working with a powerful failsafe pump, TrpleSafe, water and mud are carried away from the home to ensure safe and dry living.

Carol called us after she had water in her basement for over a week. The water was only around the basement perimeter but she could not find any leaks. We found that the water must have been coming in from where the wall and floor meet. We installed the WaterGuard perimeter drain to collect any water that seeps into the space and send it off to the sump pump. The drain is installed quickly and under the floor so there is not an unsightly drain in your basement. We also installed the SuperSump Plus which is perfect if you occasional water issues and keeps the basement dry for extended periods of time. It also has a back up battery attached so the sump pump will continue working if there is a power outage. 

Rose lives in a hard-to-reach area and has little help around the home. When her basement began to flood and her walls showed obvious cracking there was little to do but call a team to help find a permanent solution. Choosing to contact Ayers, our Foreman Evan was able to identify the cause of the issue and what would be the least invasive and most cost-effective remedy possible.

Understanding that the issues Roses noticed were a result of an unstable foundation, Evan and his team used a Geo-Lock Anchor and a set of Helical Piers to stabilize the basement walls.

The cracked walls were corrected with an anchor that is placed by excavating the ground outside the cracked wall. A fixture is driven into the ground and on the opposite side of the wall, a metal plate is fitted onto the cracked wall. The two pieces are bolted together and tightened till there is constant pressure, pulling the wall to place and holding it there.

Mia noticed water pooling in her basement. It was clearly coming from one wall that had cracks. Not wanting to risk her home's safety she contacted Ayers. Ayer's resident foreman Evan was able to understand that the brick basement wall was compromised and bowing. After an initial assessment, Evan and his team drafted a plan to treat Mia's basement and save her home.

 To stabilize the wall Evan and his team installed a PowerBrace support system along the wall. PowerBrace is installed along the bowing wall and is anchored at the base with poured concrete. The tops are fixed to the rim joist with loadbearing joints and adjusted till there is a constant counter-pressure against the wall.

After treating the wall for the bowing and the moisture in the air, Mia had a basement that was waterproof and stable for many years to come.

Dexter and Deb's living room was constantly freezing, but they didn't know what to do. They are customers who have used Ayers multiple times in the past, so they gave us a call. Our crew determined that the problem was coming from the crawlspace underneath the living room and that CleanSpace and insulation would be the perfect solution. CleanSpace is a moisture barrier that uses a thick plastic liner along crawlspace walls to keep them dry and last decades longer. It also has antibacterial properties that prevent mold and bacteria growth. Before placing the CleanSpace liner, we laid down a layer of dimpled polyethylene drainage matting so that water can flow through to the sump pump. Finally, we added rim joist insulation to further protect the space from the elements and weather. Dexter and Deb were grateful that they dont have to wear a jacket in their own living room as well as saving on heating and cooling costs. 

Paul has lived in his home for the past two years but the home was built in the early 1900s. He noticed cracks in the walls and was able to see outside. He also noticed his floors settling and knew these were signs that things were only going to get worse if he didn't cant fast.

Paul contacted Ayers and allowed our resident foreman Evan to perform an inspection and draft a treatment plan they both could agree on. The plan there agreed to was to install Helical Piers as a means of stabilizing the home.

Helical Piers are screw-shaped drives driven deep under the home at an angle. The drives are long and they reach past the infirm soil and find new sturdy ground to embed themselves into. The tops of the piers are capped with concrete blocks that the home rests upon, providing a flat-level surface. Helical Piers are a permanent solution to foundation setting and when done right, allows the home to return to its former glory.

Billie and Ray have been in their home for 30 years, and never had a problem until recently. Mice and other pests have been finding their way into the crawlspace. They called a pest control company and they recommended Ayers to encapsulate it. After our inspection, we concurred and offered Billie and Ray our CleanSpace Wall System. This system is a thick plastic liner along crawlspace walls to keep them sealed off from water, air, and pests. It also has antibacterial properties that prevent mold and bacteria growth. Billie and Ray were thankful that their pest problem is now under control. 

Our customers live in Ohio, but escape to their cottage on the lake to enjoy the Michigan summers.  They noticed the foundation starting to settle a few years ago and since then, it has gotten worse and their floors were starting to sag. They thought mold in the crawl space might be a partly to blame for the damage. The couple called Ayers for an inspection so the problems don’t get any worse. Our crew determined the couple would need a full waterproofing system, including the CleanSpace Wall System, a TripleSafe sump pump, and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. 

CleanSpace Wall System is a moisture barrier that uses a thick plastic liner along basement and crawl space walls to keep them dry and last decades longer. It also has antibacterial properties that prevent mold and bacteria growth.  Damp air takes more energy to heat and cool. Cutting down on the moisture in the crawl space, in turn, will cut down on how much it costs to heat or cool the home. The TripleSafe sump pump system utilizes three pumps in order to remove excess water from the basement. The second and third pumps are in case of emergencies so the basement can remain dry, even when the power goes out. Finally, the SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier automatically removes up to 100 pints of water a day from the air in the home’s basement. This system circulates the now dry air through the basement and automatically removes the leftover water so you don’t have to.

The customers were ecstatic to finally get this problem taken care of permanently. Michigan summers are amazing, and we love doing everything we can do make sure our customers can enjoy them in a safe, happy, and healthy environment. 

Mark and Mary have lived in their home for 25 years. They were displeased when they found signs of water damage that became progressively worse. All in his crawlspace, he contacted Ayers to have an inspection be performed.

Our resident foreman Blade was able to listen to the couple's concerns and look around the area to find a cause. The water was irregular and the flooding was seasonal. Blade realized the home was ill-equipped for winter freezing and thawing in the spring. Blade and his team decided to install an IceGuard modification to help the home.

IceGuard is a modification that attaches to the pipes of the home's sump pump. Without the mod ice can build up when the pump pushes water through the system, risking buildups and ruptures. IceGuard is a simple attachment that requires no energy to function year-round.

Steve enjoys his finished basement but can't now that the part of the area is covered by water. Wanting to enjoy the entirety of his home, he contacted Ayers looking for a solution.

Our Resident foreman Randy was able to inspect the area and diagnosed that the area was in need of a more robust drainage system. The home was in a location that made high water yields inevitable, so giving the home a way of keeping pace seemed to be the best option. Randy and his team installed a WaterGuard Drainage system to help Steve.

WaterGuard is a system of draining channels that are connected to the home's sump pump. The channels are installed under the foundational floor and covered with poured concrete, making it invisible to the naked eye. The channels lead to an outlet pipe that takes the water far away from the home's foundation, depositing the water in a safe location.

Mary’s home was built in 1965 and the garage started to settle about 20 years ago. In the last two years, Mary’s engineer son, Bruce, noticed how bad it was leaning. They want to stabilize the garage without having to lift it, to keep it from getting worse in the future. Ayers was their only option, Brace said “there’s no other company that can fix it like we can.” They called for an inspection and our crew determined that Push Piers would be the perfect solution for Mary’s garage. 

Push Piers are round steel tubes that help carry the load of homes that are sinking or settling. It has a bracket that is secured to the outside footing of the foundation and is driven into the soil below. The weight of the home is transferred from the unstable soil causing settlement to the steel pier. 

Mary and her son Bruce were thrilled with the work Ayers completed on the garage. As Bruce does not live with Mary, he wanted to make sure the garage was safe for his mother and her vehicle. He was so happy to be able to get his peace of mind back! 

Simcha was not pleased with their sloping floors. Wanting a safe solution she contacted Ayers for help. Our resident foreman Blade was happy to inspect the area and draft a treatment plan for the home.

Blade decided the home's crawlspace was in need of major repairs so he chose the SmartJack piers as the tool for the job.

SmartJack piers are metal beams placed strategically along the structure's supportive rim joist. The bottoms are anchored into the ground with poured concrete while the tops are capped with load-bearing joints that are attached to the rim joist. The entire pier's height is adjusted till there is constant pressure being applied, reintroducing support to the entire framework. 

Kathleen noticed that water seemed to be coming down the basement wall. She wanted to get this taken care of right away and give her basement a more finished look, so she gave Ayers a call. After inspection it was determined that BrightWall would be the perfect solution.

BrightWall enhances basement walls by not only providing a smooth, clean finish but also by its waterproof and vapor barrier protection qualities. The panels are made of rigid plastic sheeting that's attached to your basement wall by drilled-in plastic fasteners. This vapor barrier within the wall will prevent humidity and mold growth. 

Kathleen is satisfied with her new BrightWall panels that not only give her basement a more finished look but also have waterproofing qualities to prevent from water or humidity issues. 

Lisa gave Ayers a call after noticing water leaking into her crawl space. Ayers System Design Specialists determined that installing CleanSpace, SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier, along with our TripleSafe Sump Pump System would be a great solution.

CleanSpace is made of a thick plastic liner that will run along the crawl space. Its vapor barrier and waterproof property protects it from excess moisture. This excess moisture could lead to bacteria or mold development which could rot your home's wood framing. The SaniDry Sedona is installed to remove water in the air so it can circulate the now dry air throughout the crawl space. This will also save you some money on your heating and cooling bill! The last product installed was the TripleSafe which has three pumps that all fit in one liner. The first pump does most of the work with keeping water out, the second is there for backup, and the third pump will turn on in power outages.

Lisa was thrilled to have her crawl space protected from water leaks with these waterproofing systems in place!

Raymond had begun rebuilding a house when he realized there were structural issues. The home had a two-bedroom overhang supported by five posts in the backyard. However, the overhang was sagging, and Raymond wanted to get it looked at. He decided to call Ayers, and a home inspection appointment was made. After assessing Raymond's home, the Ayers team believed Helical Piers would be best for the situation.

Helical piers are steel foundation systems that are screwed into the ground as the bottom portion contains blades to drill through the soil. The blades of the pier are where the load-bearing weight of the home is distributed and stabilized. Once the piers were drilled down to the desired depth at Raymond's home, the pier was attached to the foundation. A helical pier was an excellent solution for Raymond as the house will no longer sag, and everything is permanently stabilized!

Robert's Jackson, MI home was built in 1920 and was passed onto him and his brother when their father passed away. The brothers wish to sell the home, but knew there were some issues with the foundation and wanted to get maximum value for the home. They called Ayers for an inspection, and our crew discovered that several of the beams in the crawlspace that support the whole foundation were rotting and needed to be replaced. SmartJacks were the perfect solution for them. 

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. 

Robert and his brother were impressed with the level of professionalism by the Ayers crew and were more than satisfied with the installation provided. They feel better knowing they'll be able to sell the house easier and for a higher price. 

Christine noticed sagging in her floors and wanted her crawlspace inspected. Our resident foreman Evan was able to inspect the area and draft a treatment plan shortly after Christine initially contacted Ayers.

Evan noticed the crawlspace needed reinforcement, so he and his team installed SmartJack piers. To prevent future water damage he installed a CleanSpace lining. He also treated the entire area with a dehumidifier.

Branden was sick and tired of dealing with leaks around the wall to the floor seams in his basement. He even noticed gross mold developing so he knew it was time to call for professional help. After calling Ayers we sent out a crew for an inspection. Our System Design Specialists decided it would be best to install our WaterGuard System along with our SuperSump Plus. 

With the WaterGuard in action, this sub-floor drainage system will tackle these pesky wall leaks in his basement. This was installed along the perimeter of his basement and is now keeping water and dirt away from his foundation! Another great advantage is that the system won't get clogged with mud which ensures water can effectively be collected and redirected. We also installed the SuperSump Plus which has the capability to pump 2200 gallons of water an hour at an 8 foot head. 

Branden was thankful to have these annoying water leaks fixed with these waterproofing systems in place!

Ronald's crawl space was in need of a serious fix-up job, his wood support beam was starting to bow. Worried about his deteriorating support works and the safety of his home, he knew calling Ayers professionals to come over for an inspection was the best call. Our System Design Specialists determined Ronald could use CleanSpace and SmartJacks to protect his home. 

With CleanSpace installed, its vapor barrier quality will protect his crawl space against excess water and moisture development. This thick, durable plastic liner is placed along the walls and crawl space floor. Regular tarps you can buy from the store won't do the trick since they fail to prevent mold or bacteria growth and aren't waterproof. The main goal of CleanSpace is to separate the earth from the home and keep water vapor from seeping in. Then we had SmartJacks installed which are steel, supplemental support systems for crawl spaces. This system effectively supports sagging beams and floor joists. A steel tube is used for SmartJacks which is manufactured with a triple-layer, in-line galvanized coating. 

Ronald is now relieved he doesn't have to worry about the safety and protection of his crawl space!

Chuck's Rives Junction, MI home was built in 1972. The original builder tried to cut every corner that they could. There was no sump pump, no drain tile, and the block foundation was never sealed properly. The home was experiencing waterproofing and structural issues. There was only one place in the corner of the basement where water crept in, it was a miracle that the home wasn't a swimming pool. Chuck called Ayers for an inspection, and we determined that he would need WaterGuard, CleanSpace Wall System, and TripleSafe sump pump to address the waterproofing needs and GeoLock Anchors to stabilize the foundation. 

WaterGuard is a sub-floor waterproofing system that collects water that leaks through the walls and keeps dirt away from the foundation. It is installed along the perimeter of the basement and on top of the footing of the foundation. Concrete is poured on top and regular flooring can be placed on top. CleanSpace Wall System is a moisture barrier that uses a thick plastic liner along basement and crawl space walls to keep them dry and last decades longer. It also has antibacterial properties that prevent mold and bacteria growth.  Damp air takes more energy to heat and cool. Cutting down on the moisture in the crawl space, in turn, will cut down on how much it costs to heat or cool the home. The TripleSafe sump pump system utilizes three pumps in order to remove excess water from the basement. The second and third pumps are in case of emergencies so the basement can remain dry, even when the power goes out. 

GeoLock Anchors permanently stops foundational shifting. The anchors have 3 parts. The first part is a plate on the interior foundation wall. A steel cable is drilled through the plate into the soil directed away from the home. A second plate is anchored to the other side of the cable for maximum stabilization.

Ann discovered mold in her basement and was rightfully concerned. She immediately reached out to Ayers and allowed our resident foreman Bruce inspect the area. The area was very compromised due to water damage and needed extensive work.

To help control the water flow Bruce installed a new sump pump known as the TripleSafe sump pump with three levels of protection against water. Bruce also installed IceGuard modifications to the pipes to help the system work during the winter. Bruce helped reinforce the home's support works with SmartJack piers. Finally, he sealed everything away with a CleanSpace protective lining.

Mia grew worrisome with her home as her foundation walls looked seemed to be collapsing. Mia understood the situation's importance and contacted Ayers to get a professional opinion. An assessment done by Ayers concluded that her foundation was settling, causing the walls to bow. However, a perfect solution awaited Mia!

The team at Ayers suggested installing the PowerBrace system and a GeoLock Wall Anchor. The PowerBrace System utilizes a steel column attached to the home's floor joist with heavy-duty brackets. The power brace system will stop Mia's walls from further bowing and collapsing! In addition, the GeoLock Wall Anchor utilizes an anchor system by burying an anchor plate and using that plate to pull the faulty foundation wall back into its original place. After everything was installed, Mia's home was permanently stabilized, and there was no longer a thought of her home collapsing!

Amanda was worried about the water that was leaking into her basement and knew she had to get it tackled ASAP before it caused more trouble for her. She searched for options near her and saw that Ayers offered solutions to these issues. She gave us the much needed call and we had our customer care team work with her to get a free inspection set up at her home. After this inspection was completed, an appointment was booked to install our recommendations of our WaterGuard System and TripleSafe Sump Pump System.

First with WaterGuard installed, this sub-floor drainage system is great for catching water that seeps through the walls and makes its way to your basement floor and belongings. This system is installed around the perimeter of your basement and is concealed with concrete poured over top. Regular flooring can also be placed over this concrete if desired. Next, TripleSafe was installed which consists of a three pump system that fits in one study liner. These three pumps work together to keep water out of the basement. The first pump will pump most of the water out but the second will run if backup is needed, while the last pump will only turn on in emergency power outages. 

Now that Amanda has these waterproofing systems in action, she doesn't have to stress out about water seeping in and ruining her precious belongings!

Thomas had a big crack in his foundation wall as well as some other small cracks that needed to be addressed quickly. Letting these cracks get worse would compromise the safety of his home so he called Ayers looking for solutions. We sent a crew to his home for a free inspection and from there our System Design Specialists were able to determine he needed PowerBrace and BrightWall. 

With BrightWall, this is a waterproof solution and gives the walls a clean appearance without a full remodeling job. This consists of rigid, plastic paneling meant for unfinished basement walls. It is durable, washable, and will even prevent mold growth or rotting. We also installed PowerBrace which is a foundation repair system that will secure these bowing walls in place. Outside pressures are typically what cause these walls to crack. The PowerBrace consists of steel beams that stretch the length of the wall and are installed in the floor at the base of the wall then are attached to the joists above the wall.

Now that Thomas has a repair system in place for his foundation wall, he no longer has to stress over the safety of his home!

After recently moving into his home, William found water leaking into his basement after a storm. William was quite puzzled and decided to call Ayers. A System Design Specialist did an inspection to determine the issue. The inspection determined that water was seeping through the block foundation and wasn't correctly funneling toward the pre-existing sump pump. However, WaterGuard and TripleSafe would later solve those issues!

WaterGuard is a French Drain System that sits below the basement floor and above the home's footing. Any water seeping into the home will be caught by the drain and funneled toward the sump pump! TripleSafe is a powerhouse sump pump that houses three pumps within one-liner for maximum precautions! Once Williams's home was properly draining and pumping water out of his home, his problems were resolved!

Marc wanted to make the bedroom in his finished basement legal with an Egress Window so he gave Ayers a call after discovering we sell them. We had our customer care team set up an appointment for him and the installation was made. Egress Windows are perfect for basements since they are larger and provide more natural light that will make the space more inviting. They are waterproof and allow for a quick, easy escape in the case of an emergency. 

Marc was thrilled with the way the Egress Window helped transform his basement into a regular living space!

Brendan was interested in getting an Egress Window installed to replace the tiny window he had in his basement. He searched around for his options and decided to go with Ayers. After calling us, our customer care team set up a time that would work for him for an installation appointment.

The Egress Window will look much more attractive in his basement and is an especially nice addition for a finished basement or if you're planning on finishing it. These windows allow for a quick, easy exit in the event of an emergency and are waterproof. With these windows being much larger than the average basement window, more fresh air and natural light will fill the space. 

Now that Brendan has an Egress Window, his basement is transformed from a typical basement to a regular living space!

Rick had contacted Ayers for structural issues and decided to also have a wall outside his home inspected. The team at Ayers concluded from the inspection that the concrete wall was leaning and cracking due to erosion with the surrounding land. However, a perfect and quick solution awaited Rick: GeoLock Wall Anchors!

This system utilizes a load-bearing plate inserted into the ground on the opposing side of the wall. This plate acts as the anchor, and then a steel rod is drilled through the wall to the plate in the ground. The finishing step is where a low-profile plate is bolted on the wall and fasted onto the rod. Once the system was set up and installed onto the wall at Rick's home, pressure could be applied, stabilizing it and eventually pulling it back into its original place! 

Barbara was looking to get protection for her exterior discharge lines. She realized Ayers had the proper solutions for her so she gave us a call. We had a crew inspect her home and then it was decided she could use IceGuard and LawnScape Outlet. 

First off, IceGuard will provide protection from clogged or frozen discharge lines. When temperatures drop in the winter our IceGuard can defend these lines from the harsh weather. This antifreeze fitting has slotted openings that ejects water away from the foundation. Then with LawnScape Outlet, this is added to the end of the discharge line as an underground extension that facilitates water runoff with little to no grading required. This system is more efficient and blends into your yard which prevents tripping hazards.

Barbara was happy to have these products added for extra protection, keeping her home a more safe place to live!

Casandra was hoping to get an Egress Window installed in her basement to give it a more polished look. She called up Ayers and we set up an appointment time that would work for her.

Egress Windows are great replacement windows for the typical small window in most basements. This larger window will provide more natural light to fill the space and allows for better fresh air circulation. They are waterproof so she won't have to worry about water leaking in during heavy rains. The primary benefit though being that these windows provide a quick, easy escape route in case of an emergency situation. 

Casandra was pleased with the way her new Egress Window transformed her basement look!

Krystal was looking into getting waterproofing solutions to take care of the irritating puddles that would form in her basement after heavy rain or snow. We had a crew come out to her home to check out this problem area. From this free inspection our System Design Specialists were able to recommend installing our WaterGuard System, TripleSafe Sump Pump System, and our SaniDry XP Basement Dehumidifier.

WaterGuard is a sub-floor drainage system that is placed along the perimeter of the basement to catch wall leaks and direct the water to the sump system. This will be concealed with concrete. The sump system we installed for her is TripleSafe which is a three pump system that fits in one durable liner, working to keep water out and off her belongings. The first pump gets most of the job done, the second pump is there for assistance when needed, and the last pump is battery-operated so it will turn on if the power fails. Lastly, we took extra steps to keep her basement dry with the SaniDry XP Dehumidifier which creates dry, clean air and reduces the risk of mold growth.

Krystal was glad she finally got these puddles in her home taken care of permanently!

Faye was in need of crawl space encapsulation so she decided to make the call to Ayers. We had our customer care team set up an appointment for a free inspection and from this inspection it was determined that she could use our CleanSpace and Drainage Matting solutions. CleanSpace is a thick, durable plastic liner that has a vapor barrier property which defends against mold or bacteria development. This is a waterproof system that efficiently keeps excess moisture under control and is placed along the crawl space floor. This is a much more efficient, professional fix opposed to buying a regular tarp from the floor that acts as a temporary fix. The Drainage Matting is placed below the CleanSpace liner and is a dimpled mat that collects the water and gives it a channel to flow to the drainage system.

Faye was happy with the results as this system will keep her crawl space much cleaner and protected from outside pests!

Kristina was hoping to replace the failing sump pump she had that was causing water leaks. She called up Ayers for waterproofing solutions. After a free inspection we concluded she needed TripleSafe Sump Pump System,  IceGuard, and LawnScape Outlet. TripleSafe is a three pump system that will remove excess water. The second and third pumps are mainly for backup purposes, the third pump is even battery-operated for power failures. We also added an antifreeze fitting to her exterior discharge lines called IceGuard. The slotted openings will eject water which prevents the lines from freezing or clogging in bad weather. Lastly we added our LawnScape Outlet which is an underground extension that allows for downspout water to escape without it sticking out of the ground causing tripping hazards. Kristina was grateful to get a waterproofing system that will keep her home and belongings dry!

Mark had water issues within his basement and attempted to get it fixed by another company; unfortunately, it did not work out. Mark decided to contact Ayers to explore more options. After an inspection, the Ayers team determined the preexisting system had eroded and the sump pump was not performing. The group suggested TripleSafe in combination with WaterGuard, as that would provide a lasting solution!

WaterGuard sits below the floor and above the home's footing, creating drains to the sump pump from all around the basement. Additionally, TripleSafe has three pumps within one-liner for maximum water precautions! After the crew at Ayers had installed everything, Mark was thrilled that he now had a system that would permanently last!

Billie was looking to seal off and encapsulate his crawl space because rodents had become an issue. After a home inspection was set up and conducted, the team at Ayers suggested the CleanSpace System. CleanSpace utilizes a heavy-duty plastic liner that covers the entire area creating a moisture barrier. Additionally, spray foam was used to seal off the area near the floor joist. For Billie, the system sealed off his crawl space, preventing rodents from getting in! Billie was thrilled with the look of his crawl space and that he didn't have to deal with rodents anymore!

Mark was struggling with his foundation walls as they were starting to shift and bow during the winter months. He made the right move by calling Ayers for professional advice. After speaking with our customer care team and setting up a free inspection, our crew was able to make some recommendations. Our System Design Specialists advice was to have us install PowerBraces. This is a foundation wall repair system that will counteract the outside pressures causing these walls to bow. This system can be tightened over time which can even result in straightening the walls back to their original position. This solution consists of steel beams that get secured to the joists above the foundation wall to ensure revolutionary support for Mark's critical foundation walls. He can now trust that his home is safe and supported!

Ruth was on the search for proper crawl space encapsulation when he found Ayers. He decided to give us a call after discovering we offer crawl space repair solutions. We had a group of our professionals take a look at this problem area to come up with a plan for solutions. From this our professionals determined CleanSpace and SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier would work great. CleanSpace is a durable, plastic liner that lays on the crawl space floor and provides the space with a vapor barrier. This barrier protects this area from excess moisture that leads to bacteria and mold. This liner is waterproof and much thicker so it will actually protect your crawl space from outside pests unlike a regular tarp from the store. Then we added our Sanidry Sedona Dehumidifier as this will keep the air clean and dry. This is the highest-performing and efficient dehumidifier so it will definitely get the job done. Ruth was thrilled to have her crawl space cleaned up and protected professionally!

Pam was worried about her home after a recent storm had flooded her basement. Her sump pump wasn't enough for the amount of water, and it started flowing over the liner. She decided to contact Ayers to find a permanent solution for her home. After Ayers inspected her home, the team determined that the TripleSafe sump pump would be perfect! The TripleSafe Sump Pump utilizes three different pumps within one liner for maximum security! The lowest pump can pump 2,220 gallons of water at an 8ft overhead in an hour! The secondary pump is even more powerful and can pump 3,900 gallons of water per hour! Lastly, the third pump is connected to an external battery and will turn on to pump water in the event of a power outage. Pam was thrilled that she had found a lasting solution for her home!

Candy was looking into the options Ayers had for replacing the flooring in her basement with tile. She spoke with our team and realized we had what she was looking for so an appointment was made. Her current flooring in the basement was just cold concrete that had visible water damage covering the surface. We installed our beige tiles over the concrete to give her basement a more attractive and finished appearance. Next we agreed on adding our SaniDry XP Dehumidifier so the air remains clean and dry much more efficiently. It will never need to be emptied and is 10 times more powerful than the average dehumidifier you can get at the store. Candy was happy with the way these new installations transformed her basement, giving it a more finished look!

Rodney's new home was a work in progress and as this was being built he wanted to have a waterproofing system installed. He trusted our professionals at Ayers to get the job done properly so he gave us a call. We had our customer care team set up a time for a free inspection. After the inspection was complete our crew concluded that our WaterGuard System combined with the TrenchDrain would keep water out of the home. The WaterGuard System is a subfloor drainage system that will collect water leaks and direct the water to the sump pump. This is installed along the perimeter of the basement and on top of the footing of the foundation to prevent clogging. Then we installed our TrenchDrain which is perfect for doorway entrances where water leaks arise. This basement drainage pipe has a grated opening that fits snugly on top and is installed in the subfloor. The water that leaks in over the system will fall through the grated openings and be directed to the sump pump. Rodney was glad he had these waterproofing systems installed to help keep his home clean and dry!

Susan was looking for a solution that would tackle the musty smells coming through the floors. Unsure how to fix this issue herself she gave Ayers a call. To figure out the best solutions for Susan, we had a crew inspect the home. After this inspection, it was settled that the smells were coming from her crawl space due to the lack of proper encapsulation. We first installed CleanSpace because this is a waterproof liner made from inorganic plastic that has a vapor barrier. This barrier prevents excess moisture that causes the growth of mold or bacteria. The crew decided to add our EverLast Door to ensure harmful outside air or critters wouldn't enter her crawl space. The door is made of practically indestructible plastic that won't warp, shrink, or require maintenance. The water seal on the door keeps the outside moisture out as well. Susan was grateful to receive our expert help that rid her home of the musty smells!

Joe was hoping to have a waterproofing system installed that would protect his home's belongings from water leaks. After recruiting our professionals at Ayers for help, we sent a crew for an inspection. Our System Design Specialists then were able to recommend our WaterGuard System. This is a drainage system that we install under the floor and around the perimeter of the basement. It will gather the water that seeps in through the walls and send it to the sump pump we hook it to. To conceal the drain, we pour concrete over it so that when it dries it'll blend in with the space. Joe was glad to receive a permanent, professional solution rather than attempting to solve the leaks himself!

We received a call from a concerned customer who was tired of the cold drafts in her house. She knew the problem area was coming from her crawl space since she didn't have the proper encapsulation for this space. She called Ayers for our crawl space repair help and we conducted a free inspection. We then determined CleanSpace and SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier would tackle these issues. CleanSpace is a heavy-duty plastic liner that uses a vapor barrier to prevent the growth of bacteria or mold. We place this waterproof liner across the crawl space floor to create a barrier between the dirt ground and the home. Next, we added our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier, the world's most efficient, high-performing dehumidifier. This system will rid the crawl space of the excess moisture leading to cold drafts and nasty smells. We left Rose's home with confidence in our professional solutions!

Robert's home lacked a proper waterproofing system that would keep his home dry during any emergency flooding situations or leaks. He decided to choose Ayers for our professional solutions. We first inspected the home's basement so that we could make the best recommendations for Rob. The solutions we recommended were our WaterGuard System and SuperSump Plus. First, the WaterGuard System is installed around the perimeter in the subfloor of the basement, collecting water coming in through the walls. It is hooked to the sump pump so that the water is taken care of there. We pour concrete over the drainage system to conceal it. Next, we added our SuperSump Plus, a horsepower pump capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water an hour at an 8-foot head. With both professional systems working together, Robert's home will remain clean and dry!

Don and his wife are currently working on finishing their Munith, MI home that they purchased in January. The couple plans on retiring in the next 5-10 years, so they really want to make sure their home is in tip-top shape before they retire full-time. They had a sump pump, but the waterline was so high, it was making Don nervous. Ayers came out for an inspection and saw that the water intrusion was steady and the sump pump was 2 gallons too full. Our crew determined that Don and his wife would need a new TripleSafe sump pump and WaterGuard with IceGuard.

The TripleSafe sump pump system utilizes three pumps in order to remove excess water from the basement. The second and third pumps are in case of emergencies so the basement can remain dry, even when the power goes out.

WaterGuard is a sub-floor waterproofing system that collects water that leaks through the walls and keeps dirt away from the foundation. It is installed along the perimeter of the basement and on top of the footing of the foundation. Concrete is poured on top and regular flooring can be placed on top. Finally, IceGuard was installed in conjunction with the WaterGuard. IceGuard is a simple addition to your already existing sump pump. It allows water to escape when the discharge line is frozen and prevents your basement flooding in cold weather. IceGuard is completely automatic, meaning after the initial installation, it’s done.

Don and his wife were ecstatic with the work completed by Ayers and our crew and cannot wait to retire full-time. The were so impressed with the level of professionalism and craftsmanship that they would be thrilled to have us back if ever the need arises.

Rodger noticed water puddling on the floor whenever it rained hard. Over time, the water damage wouldn't be reversible, so he called Ayers for a waterproofing solution. Our crew recommended our WaterGuard system to ensure water leaks during heavy rains get collected in the subfloor drain. Specially designed piping gets installed within the ground along the perimeter of the basement. The system reroutes water to the sump pump rather than the floor. We pour fresh concrete over the top of the drain to conceal it within the space. Now Rodger doesn't have to stress over leaks every time it rains!

To conclude his search, he ventured into his crawl space and immediately knew he had found the culprit. He wasn't sure how to rid his crawl space of moisture, so he called Ayers.
