Before & After Photos

Don and his wife bought this home in January to live in when they retire in 5-10 years. They are currently working on finishing the basement but have heavy water intrusion that is halting that project. They are hoping to get everything around the home done and fixed up so they have nothing to worry about once they actually retire. We installed the TripleSafe sump pump to provide 3 levels of protection and peace of mind for the homeowners. We also installed the WaterGuard drain system to send the water to the sump pump so it can be expelled outside the home. Lastly, we used BrightWall to act as a vapor barrier to prevent water vapor or humidity from passing through into the space and keeping the home safe from mold or rot!

Don and his wife are currently working on finishing their Munith, MI home that they purchased in January. The couple plans on retiring in the next 5-10 years, so they really want to make sure their home is in tip-top shape before they retire full-time. They had a sump pump, but the waterline was so high, it was making Don nervous. Ayers came out for an inspection and saw that the water intrusion was steady and the sump pump was 2 gallons too full. Our crew determined that Don and his wife would need a new TripleSafe sump pump and WaterGuard with IceGuard. 

The TripleSafe sump pump system utilizes three pumps in order to remove excess water from the basement. The second and third pumps are in case of emergencies so the basement can remain dry, even when the power goes out. 

WaterGuard is a sub-floor 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. Finally, IceGuard was installed in conjunction with the WaterGuard. IceGuard is a simple addition to your already existing sump pump. It allows water to escape when the discharge line is frozen and prevents your basement flooding in cold weather. IceGuard is completely automatic, meaning after the initial installation, it’s done. 

Don and his wife were ecstatic with the work completed by Ayers and our crew and cannot wait to retire full-time. The were so impressed with the level of professionalism and craftsmanship that they would be thrilled to have us back if ever the need arises. 

Anne was worried the water pooling in her basement could cause problems or lead to significant damage, so she called Ayers. We sent our experts to her home, who realized Anne's issue was a sump pump failure. They recommended and installed TripleSafe, which has three pumps, one of which is battery-powered in case of a power outage. Anne is happy her basement is permanently dry!

Candy was looking into getting a dehumidifier to keep the basement clear of excess moisture and she wanted to cover the floors with tiles that would make the basement more attractive. She realized Ayers had the solutions she was looking for so after calling us we sent a crew to install our SaniDry XP Dehumidifier and the tile she wanted for the flooring as well. SaniDry XP Dehumidifier will clean and filter the air, preventing the excess moisture that leads to nasty mold or growth. Then we added the tile over her flooring to make her basement look more finished and attractive!

Steve was worried about the lack of protection in his basement. There was no waterproofing system in place to stop water from seeping in and ruining his precious belongings. He called Ayers for the job and a crew was sent to the home for a free inspection. Our professionals can make the best recommendations after inspecting the particular problem area. Our solution was to install our subfloor drainage system known as the WaterGuard System. This system is installed along the perimeter of the basement and laid on the foundation's footing to prevent clogging. If water does permeate through the walls, it will be collected in the drain and directed to his sump pump. Concrete is poured over the system as well to conceal it. This drain will keep Steve's basement looking clean and dry!
