Before & After Photos

We spoke to Melissa over the phone to discuss our egress windows. She wanted a larger window to increase the natural light in her basement to brighten the space. Our egress windows are perfect since they are much larger than the standard basement window, and the opening allows for a safe exit in emergencies. We attach an exterior well with steps to ensure this exit is quick and easy. Melissa's basement feels much more open and welcoming now!

In order to prevent wetness in the basement due to their sump pump, this Kalamzoo family reached out to Ayers for some expert help. We recommened our patented SuperSump sump pump, capable of keeping a basement dry for the long haul. The SuperSump saved this family's basement by having the ability to pump water out of their basement at 2,220 gallons per hour. Their basement now may be used as a safe living space. 

At Ayers, we are all about reliability, and our products reflect that. We transformed this old, non-reliable pump into a fully functional SuperSump. The SuperSump contains a pump stand (prevents clogging of any debris in the sump liner), pump alarm (for when the basement floods), and an airtight sump lid with a floor drain in it (helps water to go down but not air to come up). This home will now be able to rely on their sump pump to properly drain all of the water out of the basement.

Homeowners in Kalamazoo, MI were experiencing several inches of water throughout their entire basement. The problem? No sump pump!

We installed the TripleSafe sump pump system. TripleSafe is a safeguard feature that includes the use of three pumps to ensure this basement will stay dry, even in power outages and severe weather events. In the case of heavy water or primary pump failure, the second and more powerful pump will kick in, if there is a power outage the battery powered UltraSump will take over.

This homeowner called us because he wanted to get a crack in his basement wall fixed. The walls are poured concrete and the crack that is present allows water to enter with heavy rain. Basement walls tend to move due to concrete shrinking/expanding and because of the pressure given off from the soil surrounding the wall.

Considering these problems, we installed the FlexiSpan sealant, which repairs water leaks due to a cracks in a wall. The sealant is flexible and specially made to move with the wall to make sure the crack is sufficiently sealed and doesn’t re-crack as the wall continues to shift. This system also includes the installation of a drain at the base of the seal to make sure any water leakage can drain easily.
