Waterproofing a Comstock Park Home

Steven noticed that his floor was not connected to the wall and the floor joists were taking in water. They has some leaks and had water on their wood floor boards. He called us to find a solution to the water issue. We installed the WaterGuard System to their home to keep the water off their floors and to drain it out of the house. The WaterGuard is a French drain that is installed below the floor slab, on top of the foundation footing to keep it out of the area where drains can clog. The system collects water from the walls and drains it to your sump pump. The system installs quickly and has a clean finish.

Waterproofing a Comstock Park Home with WaterGuard

Wanda had puddles in her basement and water had been compin up through the floor. Her basement is partically finished but the area where there was water was not finished. She wanted a solution to have a dry basement but also wanted to make sure the finished part of her basment didn't get ruined. We installed the WaterGuard system to keep the water out of her basement. The WaterGuard is a French drain that is installed below the floor slab above the area where drains clog. This system collects water that seeps into the basement and drains it into the sump pump.  

Egress Window Allows for Comstock Park, MI Homeowner to Start Basement Remodeling

Lee called Ayers looking for an Egress Window so he could begin the basement remodeling process and to stop the window well leaks he was currently dealing with. With the Egress Window he will no longer have to worry about leaks as this is a sturdy, waterproof window with a huge well on the exterior as well as a lid that keeps outside pests out. This window is larger which allows more natural light to shine through, making the space appear bigger and more inviting. This is also an important safety measure to consider because these windows provide a safe exit in emergency situations which is crucial for him since he wants to finish his basement. Lee was ecstatic with the new finished look the Egress Window brought to his basement!

Safety Improvements in Sparta, MI, Basement

Kurt realized his basement windows didn't open wide enough for an escape from the inside. This was a serious safety hazard, so he researched his options and called Ayers for help. Our crew of experts stopped by his house and evaluated the space. They recommended installing an egress window engineered for easy escapes during emergencies. Egress windows are built to hold back heavy soil and water and include a polycarbonate safety cover designed to be stepped on without breaking. Having an emergency exit is a big weight off Kurt's shoulders!

BrightWall Panels Used to Remodel an Irons, MI Basement

This couple was in the middle of redoing a lake home in Irons, MI. With only the basement left to tackle, they gave us a call. The previous block walls were leaking and maybe just a bit too bright in color. With plans to sell the house after the remodel, they figured why not handle the leakage and change colors all at once. Our BrightWall panels are perfect for partially finished basements, as they can be fastened directly in front of old walls like they were here. Once installed, the panels allow for water drainage to occur behind them. The water from the leaks will flow down the walls and into the drainage system that was installed slightly below floor level, a WaterGuard perimeter system in the case of this home. This way the basement looks great while continuing to stay dry.
