Before & After Photos

Marcia was in serious need of a waterproofing system that would solve her water intrusion issues that were causing her unnecessary stress. She called Ayers for solutions and after an inspection our System Design Specialists determined she needed our WaterGuard System and our TripleSafe Sump Pump System.

WaterGuard is perfect for her issues because this is a sub-floor drainage system placed around the perimeter of the basement and will catch any water leaking in through the walls. This will be connected to the sump pump and is concealed with concrete poured over. Then with TripleSafe this is a three pump system that will remove the water leaking into her home. The first pump will get most of the water out, the second is there for backup, and the third is battery-operated for power failures.

Marcia was relieved to get her water issues permanently resolved so her belongings stay dry!

This homeowner called us when she was noticed a pretty heavy leak from a crack behind her drywall. It was clear that they had tried to waterproof the crack in the past but the fix didn't work. The drywall was removed from the leaking area to expose the issue. Often times we see people use moisture blocking paints and injectable sealants to fix these cracks but neither one lasts forever. They have a tendency to fail over time because the cracks don't stay the same forever.

We waterproofed the crack by injecting a sealant into it as a first line of defense. Then we created a drywell at the base of the crack with some minor excavation. The drywell is filled with crushed stone and the concrete is replaced with the exception of a small gap at the base of the wall. Any incoming water will seep into the drywell and be allowed to leach back into the soil safely. The crack is finally covered by a layer of foam and a layer of our mold and mildew resistant CleanSpace moisture barrier. The foam creates a space for the water to flow between the wall and CleanSpace layer. Now any incoming water will flow right down the wall and into the ground without the homeowner aware of it ever happening aside from the new lack of moisture in the finished area of this basement.

Doug has a partially finished basement and wants to add an egress window to the part that is not finished. Egress windows provide a safe exit in case of emergencies and allow extra natural light into the space!

One of our customers from Leland Michigan gave us a call. She said that her basement was collecting water and she needed help waterproofing it.  We drove to her home and knew just the solution, she did not have a sump pump so we hooked her up with the best one out there, the TripleSafe. TripleSafe is a sump pump with three different pumps in one liner. The first being the 1/3 hp zoeller pump which does most of the pumping and is placed at the bottom of the liner. The second is the 1/2 hp zoeller that is placed slightly higher than the first. This pump is more powerful but will only be turned on when needed. The final pump is the battery-operated UltraSump DC which is used in case of a power outage, this pump can pump up to 24,000 gallons of water. 

Darryl has a seasonal waterfront home that had a water intrusion issue in the basement. Water was coming up from the cracks in the floor and the sump pump was not pumping the water out. We used the WaterGuard to collect the water and send it to a new sump pump. It is installed under the floor so you do not have an unsightly drain in your space. The new sump pump we installed, the TripleSafe, has 3 levels of protection to keep the home dry even if a pump fails or there is a power outage. We also installed the SaniDry XP dehumidifier to dry the space and filter the air. It stands up and can be stored in a corner or closet so that it can stay out of the way in your basement.
