Flooding in Traverse City, MI Basements

A customer had flooding in his basement due to his sump pump system overflowing. So our team installed TripleSafe, a sump pump system that’s main goal is to keep your basement dry. This system provides ultimate protection against all basement leakage and any moisture problems. There are three pumps within this system including one battery powered pump. Therefore, it can handle the highest pumping demands. 

An Airtight Egress Lid and Well Replacement in Traverse City, MI

The owners of this home were looking to make an upgrade from their previous window and well. As you can see in the before photo, the old well was made from metal. Metal wells can be a disaster when it comes to erosion and allowing water to come through.

As a replacement, our crew put in the plastic SunHouse well in the after photo. It’s made from inorganic plastic that won’t rust or allow water to permeate through. Neither the crew nor the owners were sure which egress cover would be preferred. So, the crew took both a dome and flat lid with them and allowed the owners to decide. Both options are airtight and won’t allow water or any type of debris to pass through. As you can see, the owner’s elected to go with the dome option. Either option would have been great for the home and will stand tough to water.

Traverse City, MI Basement Replaces Inadequate Sump Pump

We have probably all seen ugly sump pumps that just look like holes in the basement, just like the picture on the left, but that is not how its supposed to be, sump pumps should be clean, like the one on the right. We took this Traverse City sump pump and replaced it something that is loads better, the SuperSump. 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). This homeowner should never have to worry about water problems in her basement ever again.

Insulating Rim Joists in Traverse City, MI

A musty smell was lingering in Wendy’s house that was coming from her crawl space. The smell from the crawl space was making her son’s allergies act up. So Wendy called our team and we insulated her rim joists. Small cracks and seams can exist around rim joists, but after insulating them all of those cracks are sealed off. Now flow is restricted keeping moisture and unwanted allergens out. Therefore, musty smells won't be drifting around Wendy's house and her son's allergies will be better.

Egress Window Installation in Traverse City, MI

Jeff and Pam were looking to install an egress window and well. Once the team at Ayers had conducted an inspection, they reviewed the results with the couple. The couple decided to install the Rockwell window cover and well to provide a watertight seal! The installation crew at Ayers got right to work, established the window in the foundation, and then implemented the Rockwell systems! Jeff and Pam were thrilled with how the job turned out and looked!
