Before & After Photos

Melissa gets water entering her basement through her window after heavy rains. She also wants to turn the space in her basement into a room so she called our team. We installed an egress window and well in order to prevent further water intrusion and have the space in her basement count as a finished room. Most windows offer minimal protection against outside air entering the home due to poor insulation around the window. Egress windows will help ventilate your indoor areas and prevent unwanted allergens from entering your house. Also, egress windows provide a safe exit in case of emergency so they are required in finished basement living areas. In addition, these windows provide lots of natural light.

Mike O. had a crawl space with a musty smell. The dirt floor was covered in plastic in an attempt to seal off the floor but to no avail. Encapsulating a crawl space needs to be done professionally and requires a full inspection to determine how to best waterproof and encapsulate the space. The musty smell the owner complained about could be standing water that accumulated beneath the makeshift plastic tarp they installed. Standing water can also lead to mold and mildew growth. We installed a waterproof, inorganic plastic liner called CleanSpace to protect the crawl space from any water intrusion. We also installed a drainage mat to captures any intrusive water and then channel it to the sump pump.

Jack's basement had water leaking around the seams of the walls and floor. He didn't know how to fix it, so he researched his options and called Ayers for help. Our experts stopped by his house to assess the space and recommend a solution. They suggested the installation of WaterGuard, a drainage pipe system that is designed to prevent clogging. WaterGuard is installed on top of the footing rather than alongside it, reducing dirt and rock clumping. Jack loves his dry basement!

Mary’s front porch was sinking and cracked, so our team installed PolyLevel. PolyLevel is a waterproof and long-lasting system designed to fix concrete slabs that have sunk. It uses a polyurethane foam that expands and has a high density in order to lift the concrete slabs back to their original level. The process is quite simple and is done by drilling small holes into the concrete and then inserting the foam into the holes.

Fully finishing a basement can be expensive and take a lot of time to do right.  BrightWall lets you quickly change the look of your basement space without breaking the bank or taking ages to complete.  BrightWall uses semi-rigid plastic panels that can funnel water straight into the installed WaterGuard system.  Humidity passing through the wall is often what peels paint and ruins clean basement looks and thanks to BrightWall being inorganic and waterproof, you'll never have to worry about that!  Clean up your peeling paint or help waterproof with BrightWall!
