Trustworthy Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair in Mount Pleasant, MI

Cindy was concerned the water leaking into her basement would lead to more issues, so she researched her options and called Ayers for help. Our crew of specialists visited her home to evaluate the situation and recommended installing WaterGuard, a more effective drainage pipe system. WaterGuard sits on top of the home's footing rather than beside it like most drainage pipes, which works wonders in preventing clogs. Cindy feels much better with a dry basement!

John found cracks in his basement walls and wanted a fast solution. He contacted Ayers and had our resident foreman Evan inspect the area. Evan noticed water damage and drafted a treatment plan.

Evan decided to install a WaterGuard drainage system to better control the water and added CarbonArmor strips to help seal and correct the cracks. Finally, he installed an Egress window upon John's request.

I’m sure you’ve heard the saying, “Good things come to those who wait”. In some instances that quote may be beneficial, however when you’re knees deep in water and mold is surrounding you in every direction, waiting is the last thing you should do. Instead, you should give us a call. Immediately.

And that’s exactly what Steven did when he noticed that the longer he waited, the worse his crawl space was getting. Water had begun flooding his crawl space and after time, mold, mildew and other pests followed suit.

Our team of System Design Specialists devised a plan to save his Mt. Pleasant, Michigan home from deteriorating by encapsulating the area with our state-of-the-art CleanSpace products. 

To ensure the integrity of Steven’s home we started by removing the water and installing CleanSpace Drainage Matting. The matting rests directly on the crawl space floor to trap moisture and direct water to your drainage system. The matting is compatible with all of our crawl space products making it cost efficient and convenient.

 We then encapsulate the crawl space with CleanSpace Vapor Barrier Liner. The thick, durable, liner clings to every inch of the crawl space, guaranteeing that mold and unlikely pests stay out. When combined with the SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier, virtually no moisture will be present for years to come. 

This household in Mount Pleasant, MI called us about a wall that had started bowing. Our team here at Ayers had a solution to this issue.

We installed the Geo-Lock wall anchor system to stabilize the failing foundation wall. We start by excavating the soil outside of the wall in order to place the steel anchors deep into stable soil. The anchors are then placed against the failing wall and tighten in with a steel pole. After this process is complete, we fill the soil to cover up the holes. The wall is finally stable and will no longer shift nor crack. 

The homeowners can finally have peace of mind after the job was completed.

Sherrie B. of Mount Pleasant, MI has a serious leak in her basement wall prior to calling us. The leak was letting in unwanted water, even though she had another company put in a French drain system a while ago.

Our solution? The WaterGuard French drain system. Our patented WaterGuard system rests below the basement floor and above the foundation footing, collecting water that enters the basement from the walls (or, through leaks in the walls). This water is then redirected to the sump pump to be pumped up and out of the home. 

Ryan M. from Mount Pleasant, MI was dealing with a serious water issue before he called us. The night before he reached out to us he removed 24 gallons of water from his basement. The water seemed to be seeping in through the cinder blocks.

Our solution? The WaterGuard French drain system. WaterGuard rests below the floor and above the foundation footing, collecting water that seeps into the basement from the walls. This water is then redirected to the sump pump to be pumped up and out of the home. WaterGuard is a surefire way to keep your basement free of floods. 

Teresa H. of Mount Pleasant, MI was having a basement water issue before she called us. Every time it would rain or snow would thaw, the basement would receive water. She had a sump pump but it wasn't doing enough to keep the water under control. 

Our fix was the TripleSafe sump pump system and the WaterGuard French drain system. We began the project by installing the TripleSafe. The TripleSafe is a 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.

After that installation, we put in the WaterGuard. WaterGuard rests below the basement floor but above the foundation footing, collecting water that seeps into the basement from the walls. That water is then directed to the sump pump -- the TripleSafe -- to be pumped up and out of the home. 

Kathy H. of Mount Pleasant, MI had water on her basement floor that seemed to come in from the foundation. The basement floor is carpeted and the water on the floor would saturate the carpet. She also had a "very soggy" spot in her front yard year round. 

Our fix? The WaterGuard French drain system and the TripleSafe sump pump system. WaterGuard sits below the basement floor and above the foundation footing, collecting the water that enters into the basement from the walls. The TripleSafe comes in to play because WaterGuard directs the water it collects to the TripleSafe sump pump to be pumped outside. TripleSafe is sump pump that provides three levels of protection against water leakage. Three levels of protection, being 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.

Kathy can now feel comfortable in her home with these systems in place. 

Melissa A. from Mount Pleasant, MI had water coming into her finished basement. It was enough to cause her to remove the carpeting, and she wanted a solution that was going to last. 

First, we started by installing our TripleSafe sump pump system. TripleSafe is a 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.

Next, we installed the WaterGuard French drain system. WaterGuard rests above the foundation footing but below the floor, collecting water that enters into the basement. The water is then redirected to the sump pump -- the TripleSafe, in this case.

Finally, we installed the SaniDry XP standing dehumidifier. This dehumidifier removes up to 109 liters of water per day and has a ductwork that is compatible for drying finished spaces. It's air filter even removes particles as small as 2 microns.

Water, say goodbye!
