Before & After Photos

A cusotmer had water leaking into his crawl space causing mold growth, so our team insulated his rim joists. Small cracks and seams can exist around rim joists, but after insulating them all of those cracks are sealed off. Now flow is restricted keeping moisture and unwanted allergens out. 

We received a call from these South Haven MI, residents saying that they were having flooding issues in their basement pretty frequently. After going out for our free inspection and assessing their situation, we decided the best course of action was to install our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain.

Our WaterGuard is an interior waterproofing system that is more efficient and lasts much longer than other perimeter systems. Unlike other systems where it is placed alongside of the footing, WaterGuard is placed on top of the footing. This is important because now since it’s on top, mud will not get in the drain and clog it simply because the drain is not sitting in the mud.

The WaterGuard system collects water that seeps through basement walls and drains it to your sump pump. The system installs quickly and has a clean finished appearance, meaning you don't have to worry about having an unsightly drain around the basement.

Kens unfinished basement had some drains in the floor but water keeps backing up, causing standing water. We installed the WaterGuard system which is a French drain system under the floor. The drain collects the water in the basement and sends it to the sump pump to be expelled outside the home. We also installed the TripleSafe Sump Pump System which provides 3 levels of protection to the basement in case of a power outage or pump malfunction.

After years of living with a damp basement, long-time South Haven, MI resident, Rosy B., decided to contact Ayers Basement Systems to assist in a very needed transformation. To complete Rosy’s crawl space, we began by encapsulating it with the CleanSpace encapsulation system. The CleanSpace Liner is made out of a thick, durable vapor barrier that is designed to keep moisture, mold, and pests out. 

Next, we installed a SuperSump pump. The SuperSump’s powerful cast-iron sump pump is capable of pumping 2,500 gallons of water per hour and protects your home from flooding. In addition, we installed an IceGuard system that ensures Rosy’s SuperSump will continue working even during harsh Michigan winters.

Allen was having some water issues in his basement where water was coming in from the back 2 corners. The water creates small puddles and this has been happening for a couple years. He just wanted it fixed finally so he called us for a solution to the problem. We first installed the WaterGuard system. It is a French drain system that is installed under the floor but above the foundation to keep it out of the area where it could clog. The WaterGuard collects the water that seeps into the basement and gets it out of the house through the discharge line. We also attached the IceGuard to the discharge line to keep the line from freezing in the winter. The frozen water in the pipes would cause a back up of water which could lead to flooding in the basement but the IceGuard ensures a secondary route for the water to escape in cold months.
