Before & After Photos

Chuck awoke the morning after a storm and found water leaking into his basement and pooling on the floor. He didn't want his belongings ruined but wasn't sure how to fix the problem, so he called Ayers for help. We sent a team of specialists to his home to evaluate and recommend a solution. They suggested installing TripleSafe, the sump pump system designed with three pumps to prevent failure. The primary and backup pumps are accompanied by a battery-powered pump in case of power outages! Chuck is glad he called and got the job done correctly!

John D. contacted us because he had a nasty crawl space problem. There was water leaking under his home and due to the moisture some of the wood began to rot. We installed CleanSpace, drainage matting, and our SuperSump to combat the standing water in his crawl space, but that would not be enough. His crawl space entry door would only ensure the problem happened again. His previous door was not only unsafe for his family, because anyone could fall in, but it was letting in a lot of that moisture he complained about. His new crawl space entry is now safe and secure. It has an easy open door,  locks smoothly into place, and fits snug to make sure any moisture and outside air stays outside.

A customer had water entering her crawl space and she couldn't keep it out. So our team installed TripleSafe, a sump pump system that’s main goal is to keep your basement dry. It provides ultimate protection against all basement leakage and any moisture problems because it has three pumps within this one system. One of the pumps is battery powered so that the system can work even during power outages.

This Fennville homeowner had standing water in his mostly finished basement. It was bubbling up from a crack in the floor but he did not have a a sump pump or any other way for the water to exit the home, causing the flooding. We used the TripleSafe sump pump to send the water outside of the home and keep the basement dry. This sump pump provides 3 levels of protection, with the last level being a back-up battery to keep water being pumped out in case of a pump malfunction, tripped circuit, or a power outage. We also used the IceGuard to protect the home from flooding in case of a frozen discharge line. The IceGuard gives the water a secondary escape route through slotted openings so the water won't back up and cause the sump pump to stop working. 

This is a unique before and after, in that the before picture was taken inside of the home and the during/after shot is from outside in the excavated soil.

We were called out to this home after the owner noticed that water was leaking in. He had built the home himself and knew right away what the problem was. The hole in the wall where the sewer pipe entered the basement had turned into a leak for ground water. Uninterested in building an entirely new wall, he decided to give Ayers a call for help.

After discussing possible fixes with the homeowner, the team came up with an idea for a solution that was part interior and exterior. The inside cracks would be sealed over with FlexiSpan, a sealant designed to flex with wall movement without washing away. Since the water was flowing from outside, it was important that a barrier be put over the exterior cracks. Sentry Seal is a crack repair product installed once soil has been excavated away from the foundation. The waterproof membrane was put in place over the crack on the exterior side and will stand up to ground water, soil, and whatever else the elements throw its way. This basement will now stay as dry as it would with a brand new wall but without the lengthy and costly installation.
