Before & After Photos

Basements can get nasty -- that's a known fact. Add water to the equation? You're in trouble. To fix the appearance that water damage has done to this Traverse City family's basement walls, we installed our patented BrightWall basement wall panels. BrightWall's bright white color maximizes the available light in your basement clean-looking space. BrightWall is also completely waterproof and washable, and is built to block out water vapor and humidity. No more worrying about moisture and mold in your basement with this clean look!

A homeowner called us looking to install an Egress replacement window. An Egress window is amazing to allow natural light to come in. The window also protects from the elements and water. An egress window is large enough to allow safe exit out of the basement due to an emergency. Another satisfied customer! 

Over time, many basements experience shifts in foundation due to natural dirt and settlement movement. This can lead to bowing and curved walls which leads to an unsafe foundation of the home. The Steel I-beams installed in this basement will work to counteract this movement. The PowerBrace system is unique as it can be tightened to help return the walls to their original, straight position. The beams are attached from the ceiling to the floor foundation and the beams are resistant to corrosion and rust. 

The homeowners in Traverse City, MI had a crawl space door that was made of wood. Having a door made of wood can lead to problems for you and your crawl space. The wood could warp or crack because of weather causing you to need to replace it more frequently than you would prefer. Another problem with the wood door is that it fits loosely enough to let insects, rodents and fridgid winter air into your crawl space. The door can also let leaves, debris and water into the crawl space leaving you with a mess. 

Thankfully, Ayers Basement Systems has a solution to this problem. The Turtl crawl space access well. The product is sized to protect most crawl space doors, the Turtl Crawl Space Entry System consists of a reinforced shell made from plastic and a hinged plastic top that seals down securely and can be locked to prevent entry. The system is a permanent solution and is durable enough to withstand harsh weather environments. There is no painting or maintenance required and is a great way to keep your crawl space clean, safe and secure and your home exterior looking good.

Christopher was on the lookout for a company that would sell him an Egress Window that would replace his small basement window. He found that Ayers sells Egress Windows and decided to make the call. Our customer care team spoke with Chris and an appointment was set.

These Egress Windows are the perfect fit for basements because they are larger which will open up the space making it feel less like a dark dungeon and more like a finished room. More natural light and fresh air will fill the room. They also provide a safe exit option for emergencies and are waterproof which will come in handy during heavy rains. Chris was very happy to complete his basement with this window!
