DIY Job to Trustworthy Waterproofing System for Saginaw, MI Home

Tony was over having to deal with water leaks causing trouble in his home after a failed DIY attempt to fix his problems himself years ago. He called up Ayers for a long-lasting, trustworthy solution. After inspection our crew decided he could use our WaterGuard Drainage System, TripleSafe Sump Pump System, and our IceGuard. 

 

The WaterGuard solution is a sub-floor drainage system that is installed along the perimeter of your basement that will catch water or dirt and direct the flow to your drainage and sump pump system. Concrete is poured over this system to conceal it and you can have regular flooring installed over this as well if you want. TripleSafe consists of three pumps that fit in one liner that work to keep water out of your basement. The first pump is the main leader in keeping water out and the second will run if assistance is needed or the first fails. The last pump will turn on if the power goes out as it is battery-operated. The last installation was our IceGuard which was installed on the outside of his home and will prevent his discharge lines from freezing or clogging in the cold weather.

 

Tony was happy to replace his DIY fix and have a trustworthy waterproofing system installed instead so he now is worry free from water leaks ruining his property!

Egress Window Makes Basement Bedroom Legal for Linden, MI Homeowner

Marc was hoping to get an Egress Window installed in his finished basement for the finishing touch and to make it a legal bedroom. He saw that Ayers sells Egress Windows and decided to set up an appointment with us.

 

Egress Windows are great for basements since they are larger and allow for a safe exit option in emergency situations. This is an especially important feature if someone will be living down there. This window will open up the room and make it more inviting. More natural light and fresh air will fill the space as well. These windows are waterproof as well so Marc won't have to worry about water leaking in during heavy rainfalls.

 

Marc was happy with the result and the finished look the Egress Window gave his basement!

 

Waterproofing and Stabilizing Pinconning, MI Home

Tim's Pinconning, MI home was built in 1945. It had previously belonged to his mother since the 70s. Years ago, a cement trucked parked right next to the house, cracking areas of the foundation. Since then, the cracks have only gotten worse, forming a major stair-step crack throughout the basement. Water comes though whenever it rains and Tim has to be in the basement with a shop-vac for hours cleaning up the mess. 

Tim was looking for peace of mind regarding the home that protected him and his family for years, so he called Ayers Basement Systems. Our crew came out for an inspection and determined Tim would need CarbonArmor to stabilize the foundation, and WaterGuard and CleanSpace to combat the water coming in.   

CarbonArmor is a flexible, fabric like epoxy that is 10x stronger than steel. The epoxy adheres to your basement walls and penetrates into the surface to reinforce and stabilize the foundation.   

WaterGuard is a sub-floor waterproofing system that collects water that leaks through basement walls and keeps dirt away from the foundation. It is installed along the perimeter of the basement and on top of the footing of the foundation. CleanSpace Wall System is a moisture barrier that uses a thick plastic liner along basement walls to keep them dry and last decades longer. It also has antibacterial properties that prevent mold and bacteria growth.   

With all of these products combined, Tim is ensured a safe, dry, and sturdy home for years to come. He was thrilled with the professionalism of the crew and great communication throughout the project. He can't wait to start making new memories in his mother's old house!

WaterGuard Saves Swartz Creek, MI Basement

Nick and his wife moved into their 1940 Swartz Creek, Michigan, home 5 years ago. Although, they didn’t start to have water issues until a few years later. Over time it was gotten much worse but until now they haven’t had the finances to take care of the issue. Now that they do, they want to make sure it’s done right. They had a couple of other estimates, but none were as thorough as ours.   

Nick’s basement is a concrete foundation with no sump pump. It’s an unfinished basement that gets water intrusion every time there are heavy rains. A few spots have what seem like fountains coming through the walls and other areas puddle on the floor. They’ve been using a shop vac regularly for much longer than they should have been and can’t wait to get the issue taken care of. To combat this issue, we would install WaterGuard throughout the basement. 

WaterGuard is a subfloor waterproofing system that collects water that leaks through the walls and keeps dirt away from the foundation. It is installed along the perimeter of the basement and on top of the footing of the foundation. Concrete is poured on top and regular flooring can be placed on top.  

Nick and his wife were elated by the craftmanship of work performed by our Ayers crew and loved how kind they were with them and their home. They felt so much relief knowing they wouldn't have to spend hours in the basement cleaning up water anymore.
