Before & After Photos

Egress windows are an integral part of a finished basement, particularly if you want to use the space as a bedroom or other living space. By having windows installed by a basement company, you can be sure that they are water-tight and code-compliant.

This customer callled us becuase they noticed that their foundation wall was bowing and water was leaking through the cracks. You can see from the before picture that the bowing wall was pushing on the pipes and if this problem was not fixed then the pipes would burts. 

We came to the rescue and installed a GeoLock Channel Anchor System. The GeoLock Channel Anchor System consists of steel rods stabilized in solid soil in the yard. The rods are connected to a steel plate in the ground and the channel anchor that is inside the foundation wall. The channel anchor is secured to the floor, as well as the rod in the ground, for extra strength. This stops the inward movement of the wall and could return the wall to its original position.

Kathleen noticed small cracks in her block foundation walls. She realized her pump was being overworked. She contacted Ayers and we sent our Foreman Bruce to examine the issue. Bruce realized the home's drainage system was not strong enough so Bruce installed a WaterGruard drain system.

The WaterGuard system works with the sump pump to direct extra water away from the home. The outlet is underground and leads the water safely away from the home. The system is installed under the foundational floor and is completely out of sight inside and outside of the home.

Eugene's floor has been ruined by water damage, so she called our team. Our team installed the ThermalDry Elite Plank Flooring in Eugene’s home. Made completely from inorganic material, it is not vulnerable to mold or water damage. In addition, this flooring works perfectly with our waterproofing systems. This flooring will allow Eugene to have nice wood flooring in her basement without having to worry about it being ruined by water damage.

This Sturgis couple wanted to add an Egress window to their partially finished basement to make the area livable. When there is a livable space, building codes require the home to have an Egress window. Egress windows are windows that are large enough to allow a safe exit from the home in case of emergencies. A window well is also installed which has steps or a ladder. On top of all that, Egress windows allow a lot of natural light and fresh air into the basement which makes the room look larger and more inviting!
