Repairing a Foundation Crack in Lyons, MI

Scott and Karlye noticed water was seeping into their basement. They contacted us at Ayers Basement Systems and set up a home inspection. A specialist from our team determined that there was a crack in their foundation. The team suggested the BrightWall System as it would seal the crack. During the installation, the gap in the foundation was filled with a unique adhesive in preparation for the next step. Finally, the BrightWall partition was placed over the sealant to provide a waterproof barrier! 

Wet Pewamo, MI Basement is Dried Out

We received a call from a customer in Pewamo, Michigan. They told us that his basement had some water problems on the floor. We came to their property and gave them a free estimate, and decided to install many things including a SuperSump which will drain water out of the basement much better than their current waterproofing system. The SuperSump contains a pump stand (prevents clogging of any debris in the sump liner), pump alarm (for when the basement floods), and an airtight sump lid with a floor drain in it (helps water to go down but not air to come up).

SmartJacks Raise Floor in Oakley, MI, Home

Cheryl was sick of the sagging floor in her family room. The room became unusable, so she knew she needed to ask Ayers for help. We sent a team of experts to examine the issue and recommend a solution. Due to the sturdy base and adjustable feature provided by SmartJacks, they decided this was the best solution. SmartJacks are a system of floor jacks hot-dipped in galvanized steel, zinc-plated, and reinforced to bear large loads. Cheryl is so happy to enjoy her space with the whole family!

 

Water Removed by WaterGuard in Bridgman, MI, Basement

Following the storm, Brian realized water flooded into his basement. He knew the standing water couldn't stay, so he called Ayers for assistance. We sent our professionals to his house, who recommended WaterGuard, a drainage piping system designed to be placed on top of the footing rather than alongside it. This prevents drainage pipe clogging by catching water and avoiding soil. Brian loves having a dry basement!

TripleSafe and UltraSump 4 System Saves Basement in Bridgman, MI

Patrick was having trouble with water leaking in his basement and decided he needed to get this repeated issue he was having checked out. After calling Ayers out for inspection, our crew determined his basement could use our TripleSafe Sump Pump System along with our UltraSump 4 Battery Backup Sump Pump System.  

 

The TripleSafe consists of three sump pumps that fit in one liner. The primary pump does the main job of keeping water out. The second pump is there in case the other fails. Lastly, if there is a power outage, this is where the need for the UltraSump comes in. This is a great system to have in the event your sump pump stops working, as it gives additional protection against water damage if your primary sump pump fails. It has an automatic switch that turns on the battery-operated pump if water rises above the AC pump operating range. This system can remove up to 12,000 gallons of water with a fully charged battery. An alarm is even in place if the backup pump turns on. 

 

Patrick is now content with this new system in place, keeping his basement dry!
