No Sump Pump Upgrades to SuperSump in Saint Joseph, MI

The homeowners in Saint Joseph, MI were starting to notice water seeping into their basement.  They had no sump pump so the water that was seeping in could not be removed out of the home.

The homeowners called Ayers Basement Systems and we had the perfect solution! Our professional team installed the SuperSump sump pump. The SuperSump is a full-featured system that includes the best features available. It includes the SuperLiner, which is an airtight lid that looks more attractive, keeps pests out and eliminates safety hazards 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.  

The SuperSump sump pump saved the homeowners from having to deal with even worse water problems in the future! 

Wall Anchors Save Bowing Wall in Saint Joseph, MI

The homeowners had a vertical stairstep crack going down one of their walls in the basement. As the wall bows more in the middle, the corners are held up by adjacent walls, creating the stair step cracking effect. This kind of crack is a typical sign that your wall is bowing, the problem is getting worse, and something needs to be done to fix it. 

Our professional team knew that installing wall anchors were the best option for this wall. The wall anchors are installed by digging a small hole in the soil a few feet away from your foundation. A steel rod is drilled through a hole in your basement wall and is connected to the earth anchor that is seated deep in the hole. A low-profile wall plate, placed on the interior of your basement wall, is secured to the rod. The hole is then filled back up and sod is replaced. Once all the components of the wall anchor system are connected and tightened, your basement wall is permanently stabilized. The wall anchor system is a great product for fixing bowing and cracked walls because it allows for improvement and straightening of your wall over time! 

The homeowner's wall is now well on its way to full repair!
