Waterproofing a Basement in Holland, MI

Lisa had a small crack in her basement wall that was leaking water. We installed the WaterGuard System to collect water that seeps into the basement and drain it to the sump pump to be expelled outside of the home. We also installed the CleanSpace Wall System. it keeps water vapor from passing through the wall and sends it to the sump pump. The CleanSpace also has an anti-microbial protection built in so no mold or mildew will grow.

Egress Window Replaces Unattractive, Old Basement Window in Holland, MI

The basement window Rebecca currently had was not doing the trick anymore and it was very unattractive as it was starting to fall apart. She decided to call Ayers about getting an Egress Window installed to replace it. Egress Windows are larger which allows for more natural light to flow into the room, making it feel more inviting rather than dark and unwelcoming. These windows are waterproof and come with an exterior well to protect against excess water, especially during heavy rains. The main benefit is that the windows provide a safe exit option in the case an emergency occurs and you need to leave the basement quickly. Rebecca was happy with the way the Egress Window transformed her basement space to a brighter, more finished room!

CleanSpace Protects Leaking Grand Haven, MI Crawl Space

As often happens with dirt floor crawl spaces, Alan noticed that his crawl space was leaking and causing the foundation to settle.

We installed the CleanSpace encapsulation system to protect the space from water vapor. SilverGlo and TerraBlock insulation products will also help keep the crawl space air from entering the house above, meaning more comfortable temperatures and lower energy bills.

CleanSpace and WaterGuard Transform Grand Haven, MI Basement

Every time ground water rose, water leaked into this basement. The result was mold and efflorescence on the walls. There was also damage to the outside of the exposed block walls from freezing.

We needed to find a way to get the basement dry, keep it that way, and stop the mold problem from recurring.

We installed a new SuperSump pump system as well as the WaterGuard perimeter drain to remove the water and keep the basement dry. Then the walls were covered with our CleanSpace wall vapor barrier system to prevent naturally occurring wall water vapor from entering the basement.

Now the basement will be protected from both rising groundwater and ambient moisture from the concrete walls, eliminating both mold and flooding.

CleanSpace Forces Mice Out of Grand Haven, MI Crawl Space

The crawl space under the addition of this house was having a serious pest problem. Mice were a common occurrence and had started chewing through wires. Open crawl spaces commonly attract a wide range of bugs and critters. The moisture and humidity make them perfect for catching and hanging out with other creatures in the crawl space hotel the owners were involuntarily running. To solve this problem, the crew installed an ultimate energy saver combination. With SilverGlo Wall insulation and a CleanSpace Vapor barrier, the humidity and moisture in this crawl space will be a thing of the past. The walls and liner are durable and built to keep things out. And with the moisture, so too go the favorable living conditions that critters look for. With one product installation, this home went from pests to energy efficiency.
