Installing IceGuard in Traverse City, MI

Rob called our team because he wanted to prevent his basement from flooding even during the cold Michigan winters. So our team installed the IceGuard Sump Pump Discharge Line System. This system allows water to leave even when the discharge line is frozen. Therefore, this system prevents flooding even in freezing temperatures or when the snow is piled up high. Lastly, this system is totally automatic so Rob won’t have to worry about when he should turn it on or off. 

Pooling Water and Humidity Dried up in Traverse City, MI

Andrew had Pooling water and humidity wreaking havoc on his basement. He needed a system that would take care of both so our team came out and installed CleanSpace, SuperSump Plus Sump Pump, and IcceGuard Discharge Line. Here we can see the CleanSpace transformation. CleanSpace is an uninterrupted vapor barrier designed to keep out any unwanted pests, moisture, and mold. This barrier restricts airflow and therefore makes controlling the temperature of the home much easier. CleanSpace is applied to the floors and walls and wrapped around pillars and piers carefully to ensure that the space looks clean and refreshed. CleanSpace is especially important to this job because Andrew had a dirt floor crawl space which contributes greatly to moisture and humidity in the air. Now with CleanSpace, all of that will be restricted and Andrew won’t have to worry about it.

Installing an Egress Window for Traverse City, MI, Homeowner

Jami realized her basement lacked a reliable escape route and wanted to install a larger window. She wasn't sure how to fix it herself, so she researched her options and called Ayers for help. Our experts visited her home and recommended installing an egress window to provide easy escapes during emergencies. Egress windows hold back soil and water while preventing surface falls, with a polycarbonate safety cover. The cover is also built to be stepped on without collapsing, to increase safety. Jami feels safe in her basement now!

Egress Window Brightens a Traverse City, MI Basement

We installed an egress window in a basement that was being converted to a bedroom. In addition to making the space brighter and more inviting, it's a building code regulation that any living space must have two exits - and a standard basement window doesn't fit the bill.

New Homeowners Receive Replacement Windows in Traverse City, MI

The window in the before photo leads to a basement bedroom. After recently purchasing the home, the new owner requested our services to install a replacement window that would brighten up the room. The egress windows in the after photo do just that. As you can see when comparing the photos, the new window is much larger and lets in a lot more light. The window extends below the grade while the inorganic plastic well protects it from groundwater or other elements. Egress windows are the perfect way to compliment any basement bedroom.
