Before & After Photos

Mike had a water issue in his basement and wanted it fixed. The water was coming in where the wall met the floor so we installed the WaterGuard. The WaterGuard is a French drain system that is installed under the floor but above the foundation so that it won't clog in 'mud zone.' It collects the water that seeps into the basement through the walls and drains it to the sump pump. The WaterGuard installs quickly and is the ideal choice for waterproofing.

The homeowners in Wyoming, MI had water flooding into their basement. Their basement was finished and the water was damaging everything it touched. 

Our team decided to install the WaterGuard long lasting interior perimeter drainage system to combat this flooding water. The system sits on the top of the footing in the basement in order to prevent clogging from mud or other debris. The system works by capturing floor and wall seepage before it has time to damage the basement. Once the water is trapped in the drain it is immediately taken to the sump pump. Once it gets to the sump pump the water will be removed from the home ensuring that you have a dry basement!

Mike has a partially finished basement that has water leaking where the floor and wall meet. He is looking to put the home up for sale so he needed the water issue fixed. We installed the WaterGuard French drain system to keep the water out of the home. The drain is under the floor but out of the "mud zone" where it could get clogged and collects the water that seeps into the area. The water that gets collected goes to the sump pump to be expelled outside of the home.

Pam was in need of a replacement for her old sump system in her basement that couldn't keep up with the heavy rains so she called Ayers. We had a crew check out her current system and from there our System Design Specialists decided TripleSafe Sump Pump System would work great. TripleSafe utilizes three pumps that fit in one sturdy liner. The second and third pumps are meant for emergency situations when backup is needed. The last pump being battery-operated for power failures. This trustworthy sump pump will ensure her basement remains dry during those heavy rains that would wreak havoc on her home before!

Redoing a bedroom is always exciting. For this Wyoming, MI couple, it was no different. They had just taken in a new family member and wanted to provide as much comfort as possible. Doing that for this basement room would take more than a few posters. One of the easiest ways to fix up a bedroom, especially one in the basement, is to brighten it.

Our egress windows are perfect for basement bedrooms. The team replaced the previous standard rectangle window with a 30 by 48 egress. The window is not only larger but also better protected. Each egress window comes with an accompanying well and cover to stand up to the elements. Both the well and cover are made from plastic material that won’t erode or rot away. With no erosion, the basement will be protected from possible leaks and cracks. Meaning not only did this bedroom upgrade to better lighting, it is also one step closer to becoming fully waterproof.
