Before & After Photos

Louise was dealing with a weak and rotting wooden support system in his crawl space as well as mold growth. He wanted to get this solved right away so these issues wouldn't worsen over time, so he called Ayers. We had our customer care team set up an appointment for Louise after our crew determined from the free inspection that he would need CleanSpace and SmartJacks.

With CleanSpace this thick, durable, and waterproof plastic liner covers the crawl space floor and will provide the vapor barrier he needed for this space. The vapor barrier property ensures mold or bacteria will not flourish. Then we went ahead and installed SmartJacks which is a supplemental support system meant for crawl spaces that will support sagging beams and floor joists. It is installed by attaching steel support beams to the floor joists and a sturdy base at the floor. Louise was grateful for these new installations that work together to keep his home safe!

Tom's house started smelling musty upstairs, and he wasn't sure how to identify the cause. After researching his options online, he called Ayers to learn about our waterproofing solutions. We sent a team of professionals to his house, and they recommended installing the CleanSpace vapor barrier. Crawl space moisture and mold growth can cause nasty smells upstairs. CleanSpace aims to eliminate moisture, prevent mold growth with antimicrobial-lined material, and withstand wear from walking and crawling upon it. Tom can't believe how fresh his house smells!

This homeowner has a crawl space under the addition but when it rains a lot, water seeps in. During the summer, the heat keeps the area fairly dry but it still has moisture in it. We were called because she wanted it to be sealed off to keep it dry. First, we put down drainage matting so that water in the crawl space could move and be directed to the sump pump. Second we installed the CleanSpace liner which is a thick durable liner similar to a pool liner. It prevents water vapor and humidity from passing through. By keeping your crawl space dry, your structure and insulation is protected from mold and rot. 

Many homeowners are not satisfied with their crawl space area. Typically they’re damp, musty, filled with miscellaneous debris and lack proper ventilation ー all ingredients fueling a recipe for disaster. 

However, at Ayers Basement Systems we take pride in mastering the art of crawl space encapsulation and waterproofing. In the case of Jennifer M.’s damp Potterville crawl space, the solution was simple: Clean Space Vapor Barrier System. 

First, we sealed all of the doors and vents so that outside air and humidity was no longer able to sneak in. Next we installed a crawl space drain and sump pump system. When combined, the drain and sump pump eliminates and removes any flooding water. Lastly, the area is encapsulated with our Vapor Barrier liner, a thick, durable liner that traps all other moisture in the air and ground. Without moisture, your crawl space will become smell-free and fungi-free.

After following all of the steps above we were able to completely transform Jennifer’s debris-filled, moist crawl space into a dry, ideal one. 

Deborah discovered that her Michigan basement was leaking. During rain, the same area in the basement would get wet and puddle up. She decided to call Ayers to determine the problem and explore solutions.  

A System Design Specialist was sent out for an assessment of the home and to look for solutions. After thoroughly assessing the house, the team at Ayers suggested CleanSpace System and the SmartSump. The CleanSpace system is a water-proof vapor barrier that prevents moisture or vapor from entering the basement. Any water from the walls will be funneled behind the CleanSpace and directed toward a pump. Additionally, the SmartSump is a sump pump ideal for crawlspace environments. This sump pump houses a primary pump that pumps any water in the crawlspace out and away from the house. 

These two products will eliminate the risk of water damage and ultimately take care of Deborah's problem. Ayers was more than happy to provide a permeant solution for the home!
