Before & After Photos

 You wouldn’t want moisture or mold in your living room, so why would you want it in your crawl space?! These homeowners in Dorr, MI knew that they had to do something about their damp crawl space once they spotted mold. They called Ayers, and our crew visited their home to inspect the crawl space. The solution we provided them with was a durable liner and a drain to keep moisture out. CleanSpace, thick, multi-layer liner was fixed to the walls, covering the floor. This antimicrobial provides a barrier to moisture and water vapor, keeping mold away. Additionally, SmartDrain helps drain leaks in this dirt crawl space and features an alarm that alerts the homeowners to the leak. Both CleanSpace and SmartDrain ensure that moisture and mold will no longer be a problem in this crawl space.

Rick was constantly cleaning standing water out of his basement and was sick of the tedious task, so he called Ayers for help. We sent a crew of experts to evaluate the situation and they suggested installing WaterGuard, a drainage pipe system. WaterGuard is placed on top of the footing rather than alongside it to prevent clogging, unlike other drainage pipes. Rick is happy he can relax now!

Our customer called in need of an egress window installation, with a few caveats. He had already dug the hole, and the window needed to be as big as possible while remaining centered between electrical wiring and duct work. We installed a custom size egress window and well.

When wall starts to leak, it can mean a big mess for your basement - especially if your drywall also begins to rot. That’s why this Georgetown Township, MI customer immediately removed the affected drywall and gave us a call. He had worked with us a few months back, so he was familiar and comfortable with our services. For small wall cracks like these, our crews use FlexiSpan – a two-layer polymer sealant. While one layer plugs the cracks, the other provides a drainage route for any water that does leak through. The owner won’t have to worry about that seepage puddling on his basement floor, though. Below the wall, a drainage system was also installed into the foundation floor to catch any leaking water. Rotting drywall will no longer be a problem in this basement.

This customer has a partially finished basement. Not only do building codes require an additional exit besides the door, but they require an exit  that you can actually fit through. These windows are large enough to be an emergency exit and also add to the nice and finished look of the basement. In addition, it allows more light to enter the basement, making it a more comfortable living space and not feel like a dungeon. Egress windows are sealed  and watertight so that they will not leak. This eases the mind of homeowners so that they will not have to worry about ruined furniture or carpet.
