George & Tanya H. of Jenison, MI had a crack in his foundation. Water would squirt out of this crack when it rained, causing a waterlogged basement. This said, we got a call.
Our solution to this problem? FlexiSpan polyurethane foundation wall sealant. FlexiSpan is 100% washable and waterproof, making this sealant practically indestructible. On top of that, FlexiSpan is flexible and moves with the natural shift of the foundation wall to prevent any future leaks.
Aaron H. called because he had water seeping into his basement from a wall under the home’s chimney. Mold growth was also a problem due excessive moisture in the space and a smoky odor occupied the space because the trap door for the fireplace is in the same spot. The reason water was entering the fireplace and into the home was because a cap was missing from the roof of the chimney. The homeowner was looking to remodel the basement but he wanted to take care of the water seepage first.
In order to collect intruding water and drain it into the home’s sump pump, we installed the WaterGuard system. Rather than the water entering the home and flowing onto the floor, specialized pipes were installed underneath the flooring in the home that allows water to filter in at the base of the wall and then discard into the sump pump to be pumped outside of the home. We first had to excavate sections of the floor at the base of the wall around the perimeter of the basement to make sure any and all water seepage is taken care of. The pipes were placed in the floor and the excess space was filled with crushed stone and topped off with cement to restore the flooring.
Betty F. had foundation walls in her basement with stair-step cracks that were beginning to concern her. The walls were not bowing at the time, although stair-step cracks are a common sign of wall failure in block foundation walls, so we wanted to take proper steps to fix the problem before it began to bow.
The sandy soil located outside of the home caused some concern for our original plan to use wall anchors, which is why we decided to install the PowerBrace and CarbonArmor systems.
For the PowerBrace installation, we needed to install steel columns up against the failing wall. The columns were installed at the base of the wall and to the joists above the wall with steel brackets. Once we tightened the braces, the wall was held in place and would no longer be able to shift and crack.
To further stabilize the wall, we installed CarbonArmor straps. These straps are made of a fiber reinforced polymer that is much stronger than steel. The straps were adhered to the wall with an epoxy resin and secured with steel brackets to hold them in place. These straps immediately stabilized the wall and prevented it from moving any further.
These homeowners had a walk out basement with water seepage that was entering through the cove. They had recently moved into the home and wanted the problem fixed before it worsened.
In order to collect the intruding water and drain it into the home’s sump pump, we installed the WaterGuard system. To begin this installation, we excavated sections of the flooring at the base of each wall in order to place drainage pipes. The remaining space in the trench was filled with crushed stone and the floors were restored with concrete fill. A small portion of the system was left uncovered so water is able to drain into the pipes rather than flow out onto the floor. We also installed an inspection port in the system to ensure we have access to it if ever needed.
Carin and Edward S. called because their front porch was sinking. The porch was beginning to pull away from the house and the homeowners were concerned that it would begin to affect the roof located above.
In order to lift the sunken slab and prevent it from settling again, we installed the PolyLevel system. Small holes were first drilled into the porch and were then injected with high-density polymers that expanded to lift the soil back to its original level. These specialized polymers are extremely lightweight, which addresses the weak soils issue below the slab that caused it to sink in the first place.
Nicholas and Lisa S. called because they had water coming in through the foundation in their basement. The water was entering in two separate areas and it only occurred during heavy rainfall. The affected area of the basement was finished, so the homeowners wanted the problem fixed before further damage to the home occurred.
In order to collect and discard intruding water in the home, we installed the TripleSafe sump pump system. This system is extremely effective at keeping basements safe thanks its sturdy liner and effective pumps. The first pump is set low in the liner and does most of the work. The second pump is located higher in the liner and takes over if the first pump is unable to keep up with the amount of water entering the system. Lastly, the third pump is battery powered to ensure water can be pumped outside of the home even if the power goes out.
Next we installed the IceGuard system on the home’s discharge line. During the cold winter months, discharge lines can become blocked with snow and ice, which can prevent water from exiting the home. That water then sits in the lines and freezes, which can cause the basement to flood if water from the sump is unable to leave the home. IceGuard has specialized holes that immediately eject water from the sump pump so the homeowners never have to worry. A LawnScape outlet was also placed at the end of the discharge line to prevent exiting water from flowing back toward the home.
Lorie J. contacted us because one of her foundation basement walls had a large crack that was only getting bigger with time. She was looking for a solution that would stabilize the wall and prevent it from shifting any further.
Our team of experts decided to install the Geo-Lock wall anchor system that uses sturdy anchors to stabilize shifting foundation walls. We first excavated the soil outside of the failing wall in order to embed a steel earth anchors. The anchors were then attached to wall with a wall anchor and secured into place with steel rods. After the system was tightened, the wall was immediately stabilized in place and would no longer shift or crack any further.
This Grand Haven, MI home had one wall that bowing inward about a fourth of an inch and another wall that had stair-step cracking, but was not yet bowed.
To stabilize the bowing foundation wall, we installed the PowerBrace system that uses steel beams to hold the wall in place. The braces were installed in the floor at the base of the wall and then attached to the joists above the wall with steel brackets. We also reinforced the joists to help support the weight of the home and alleviate some of the pressure being exerted on the failing wall. We also provided the homeowners with a tightening kit that can be used to tighten the braces over time to help shift the wall back to its original position.
We installed the CarbonArmor system on the cracked wall that was showing signs of wall failure. The CarbonArmor straps are 10 times stronger than steel, which made this a perfect solution to stabilize the failing foundation wall. We coated the wall with a strong epoxy resin, adhered the straps to the resin and secured them into place with steel brackets.
Kyle R. of Nunica, MI had serious moisture problems in his crawl space. He had standing water and was starting to notice mold growth. The home improvement project at the top of his list was having his crawl space encapsulated. Thus, he gave us a call and let us do what we're good at.
We installed our patented CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. CleanSpace is a 20mm thick plastic lining that seals off your crawl space entirely from the surrounding elements. No dirt, cold air, water, or moisture will get through this stuff. And to top it off, CleanSpace is developed with anti-microbial properties that prevent mold growth.
Mark H. of Spring Lake, MI was suffering from something worse than a cold -- a moist, musty, crawl space. She already had another company install vapor barrier, but it was just not doing the job. Thus, she gave us a call.
We installed our patented CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. CleanSpace is a 20mm thick plastic lining that completely seals off the crawl space from the surrounding elements. No cold air, water, dirt, or moisture will be able to pass through this stuff. And as an added bonus, CleanSpace is developed with anti-microbial components that prevent mold growth.
Cathy G. of Spring Lake, MI has a crawl space that would send a horrible smell all over the 1st floor of the house when the heat was turned on. It smelled musty and moldy even though she already had mold abatement done in the crawl space. The crawl space had a dirt floor with no insulation. So, Cathy gave us a call.
We installed our patented CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system to remedy this issue. CleanSpace is a 20mm thick plastic lining that completely seals the crawl space. No cold air, dirt, water, or moisture will be able to get through this beast of a system. And as an added bonus, CleanSpace is made with anti-microbial components that prevent mold growth.
No more moldy, musty smell with this system in place.
Joey W. of West Olive, MI had a sinking front porch before he reached out to us. A sunken slab, especially a sunken front porch slab, can cause a great tripping hazard to the homeowners and guests. Thus, this problem needed to be addressed as soon as possible.
We used our patented PolyLevel injection foam to resolve this problem. PolyLevel is lightweight yet strong and durable, making for a long-term solution to a sunken slab. In order to inject the foam, we drill small, penny-sized holes into the concrete as access points for the foam. Once we are done injecting the foam, and thus, lifting the slab, we refill the holes so they are practically invisible. This project is very noninvasive but very effective. And after the project is complete, the slab can be walked on again within about 15 minutes.
Suzanne G. of Jenison, MI had water pouring into her basement last spring and wanted to make sure that didn't happen again this year. Water and basement do not mix, so Suzanne gave us a call for a solution.
We installed two of our best waterproofing products for this case: the TripleSafe sump pump system and the WaterGuard French drain system. The TripleSafe is a sump pump that provides three levels of protection against water leakage. Whether it be normal water supply, heavy volumes of water, or in the case of a power outage, this sump pump will keep your basement dry. For normal water supply, the Zoeller ⅓ horsepower pump functions. At a heavier level, the Zoeller ½ horsepower pump activates. In the case of a power outage, the UltraSump backup sump pump will pump water on a backup battery.
The WaterGuard French drain system rests below the basement floor and above the foundation floor, collecting water that seeps into the basement form the walls -- perfect for when it rains and water leaks in through Suzanne's basement walls. Once this water is collected it is redirected to the TripleSafe sump pump to be pumped up and out of the home.
Jessica K. of Jenison, MI dealt with moisture in her basement for far too long. This moisture can travel up to the house itself, causing peeling paint, sticking doors and windows, allergies, etc. And worst of all, it creates a prefect breeding ground for mold. This said, Jessica reached out to us for help.
We installed out patented SaniDry XP standing dehumidifier. This beast of a moisture-eater is powerful yet compact, making it easy to place in a tight corner or even a closet. It can collect up to 109 liters of water per day and is sure to keep Jessica's basement dry as can be.
These homeowners contacted us because they had water seeping into one of the bedrooms in their home through the base of the wall. In order to collect and properly discard intruding water, we decided to install the WaterGuard system. We first removed the finished walls in the room in order to place the WaterGuard system at the base of the wall. Sections of the flooring were removed to place the specialized pipes and the ground was then restored with concrete fill. A small section of the system was left uncovered so water entering through the wall could flow into the underground pipes and then discard outside of the home.
These homeowners contacted us because they were experiencing water issues in the basement due to a crack in their foundation wall. The effective SentrySeal membrane was the best solution to keep water out of this home. We first had to excavate the soil outside of the cracked wall. Insulation panels were then installed on the wall and the waterproof SentrySeal membrane was applied on top.
Joe B. of Zeeland, MI was subjected to a crack in his basement wall for many years before he gave us a call to have it fixed. Water has been leaking in through the crack and he assumed he water was coming from a pipe that runs through the foundation walls.
We had a solution for Joe: our patented FlexiSpan cracked-cement sealant. FleixSpan is flexible enough to move with the natural shift of the foundation and still provide an excellent waterproof seal. This system is just the right product to prevent any more leaks from happening because of this crack.
Mark V. of Zeeland, MI was experiencing problems with water entering his basement – until he called us. Thankfully, we had a solution for him.
We installed two of our patented waterproofing products: the WaterGuard French drain system and the SuperSump premier sump pump system. WaterGuard rests below the basement floor and above the foundation footing, collecting water that seeps into the basement from the walls. Once this water is collected in the drain, it is redirected to the SuperSump sump pump to be pumped up and out of the home.
These two systems work in harmony to provide an excellent waterproof seal for Mark's basement.
Walter and Christy S. had water seeping into one of the bedrooms in their home. They were looking for a solution that would properly collect and discard intruding water before the situation continued to worsen.
Our team of experts installed the WaterGuard system, which used drainage pipes located underneath the flooring to collect and discard intruding water into the home’s sump pump.
Julia G. of Jenison, MI had a crack in her foundation wall that was allowing water to enter into the basement. Water like this can cause mold growth, peeling paint, and general congestion in the home. So, Julia gave us a call for a solution.
We installed our patented FlexiSpan cracked-cement sealant system. Flexispan, like it emphasizes in the name, is flexible, and moves with the natural shift of the foundation wall. This flexibility provides a complete waterproofing seal to make sure that no water has the ability to seep through into the basement.
This installment is the perfect solution for Julia – and probably for you, too.
Duane R. of Jenison, MI was having water come into his basement where the basement floor and wall meet. It got to the point where there was a foot of water on the ground before Duane gave us a call. Good thing for him, though – we had a solution.
We installed our patented WaterGuard French drain system for this job. The WaterGuard drain rests below the basement floor and above the foundation footing, collecting the water that seeps into the basement from the walls. After this water is collected, it is transported to the sump pump to be pumped up and out of the home.
These customers had just moved into their house when they realized their crawl space had extremely high humidity levels and a strong musty smell. There was no sign of standing water, water damage or cracks in the space, but the inspector for the home recommended a vapor barrier to officially solve the issue.
We used the effective CleanSpace liner to seal off the crawl space from unwanted moisture and water vapor. The liner was waterproof and vapor proof to prevent water from getting in through leaks or through evaporation. The liner was installed on the floor and walls of the space and was securely fastened into place. The durable material ensured the liner would not become damaged over time and would provide the homeowners long lasting protection.
Our customer lived in a condo with a full basement. Their basement is built with cement block walls and water is coming in. Unfortunately, cracks in concrete walls are common. Over time, the curing of concrete causes it to shrink. These cracks allow water to seep in. We installed FlexiSpan. FlexiSpan seals the cracks in the wall and has a built-in backup strategy in case the seal fails. In addition, just as the name suggests, the material is flexible and will move with the wall as it shifts over time.
Our customer noticed the carpet in their kid's playroom in the basement was wet. They were unsure of where it was coming from. The house was built in 1980 and the walls are built with poured concrete. After further examination of the basement, our team found that there were cracks in the basement walls. Unfortunately, over time concrete walls shift and crack. Our team used FlexiSpan to repair the cracks. FlexiSpan is a flexible material used to fill cracks in concrete walls. The flexibility of this product takes into account that the wall will shift over time and moves with the wall. This product ensures that you will not have to worry about water coming through those cracks in the wall again.
These homeowners had water entering their basement through a crack in the wall. The water was accumulating in the kid’s playroom, so the customers wanted the issue resolved before further damage occurred.
We used the FlexiSpan wall system to seal off the crack and deal with any intruding water. The installation began by removing a small section of flooring at the base of the wall to place a drainage grate that collects and discards any water able to enter the home. Next, we used the FlexiSpan material to seal off the crack. This sealant is extremely flexible, which allows it to move with the wall to keep the crack sufficiently sealed even if the wall continues to shift.
This customer had a hairline crack in the basement foundation that has gotten progressively worse. The homeowner was looking for a solution that would stabilize the wall and potentially pull it back to its proper position.
The Geo-Lock Wall Anchor system was installed to hold the shifting and cracking wall in place. The first step in the installation was to excavate the soil outside of the failing wall to embed steel earth anchors into stable soil that would be able to hold the weight of the home. The earth anchors were then connected to the wall and secured into place with a steel wall plates and rods. Once the anchor system was tightened into place, the wall was immediately stabilized.
This customer had a crack in his basement wall that stretched the entire height of the wall. The crack was allowing water to enter the basement and the homeowner was looking for a solution that would effectively seal off the crack and prevent water from entering.
We installed the FlexiSpan sealant that sealed off the crack. This sealant is able to move with the wall’s natural shift and is also waterproof, which keeps water out and prevents the sealant from deteriorating over time.
This customer contacted us because the wall up against the driveway was bowing and had multiple horizontal cracks as well. The homeowner was looking for an effective solution to stabilize the wall and prevent it from continuing to shift over time.
We installed the PowerBrace system that used steel I-beams that were secured to the base of the wall and to the joists above the wall. Once installed and secured in place, the effective system immediately provided stabilization for the once unstable wall. An added bonus to this system is that it can be adjusted over time to help pull the wall back to its proper position.
Brain F. of Zeeland, Michigan had a bowed and cracked wall in his 1940 home. The basement has block walls, the cracks were vertical, the mortar between the bricks was being pushed out. By the sound of it, Brian needed a solution – and fast.

The homeowner in Holland, MI noticed water seeping into his home where the floor and the walls meet. There was so much water coming in that it was leaving pools all around his basement and caused damage to his floor.
To prevent further damage, our professional team installed WaterGuard long lasting interior perimeter drainage system. The WaterGuard system is designed to capture floor and wall seepage before the water hits the basement floor and causes damage. WaterGuard goes along the perimeter of your basement sitting on top of the footing so you do not have to worry about it being clogged by mud or other debris. Once the system captures the water, it immediately carries it to the sump pump. The sump pump then removes the water from the home! Thanks to WaterGuard the homeowners basement is now clean and dry!
The homeowners in Holland, MI had noticed water coming in from where the floor and the wall meet. It was not so bad at first, but then the area started experiencing heavy rains and the minimal water seepage turned into standing pools of water in certain areas of their basement. They knew they needed a more permanent solution for their water problem.
Our professional team installed the SuperSump sump pump system. The SuperSump is a full featured system that includes the best components available. The system includes a sump liner and an airtight lid to keep pests out and elimate safety hazards. A floor drain in case of an unforseen accident. It has a WaterWatch alarm that alerts you if the water level rises above the sump pump intake level. It contains a pump stand to elevate the pump and prevent clogging. Lastly, it has an improved float valve to ensure long term performance.
The team also installed IceGuard anti freeze system. The IceGuard system attaches to the sump pump discharge line on the outside of your home. If your sump pump discharge line freezes or becomes blocked for any reason, IceGuard will allow the water to escape so it does not go back into your home. When the discharge line thaws, the water will automatically run along its normal route and no water will escape from the IceGuard.
Lastly, our team installed WaterGuard long lasting interior perimeter drainage system. The WaterGuard system works by capturing floor and wall seepage before it reaches and damages your basement floor.

The carbon straps were then adhered to the epoxy and anchored in place with steel wall anchors. This stronger than steel system ensures this homeowner will no longer have to worry about a failing foundation wall.
This customer contacted us because she wanted to find an effective solution that would fix her cracked foundation wall. Upon inspection, we found that water was entering the home through the crack, even though no major standing water was found.
Before the situation worsened, we needed to seal off the crack to prevent water leakage and stop the crack from expanding. This is where the effective FlexiSpan system came in. To begin, we installed a drainage grate in the ground to accommodate intruding water. Next the FlexiSpan material was applied to the wall to seal off the crack. This flexible material is able to move with the natural shift of the wall to provide an effective waterproof seal. Once applied, the homeowner could rest knowing the situation was resolved before any major damage occurred.
This Holland, MI home sat on a poured crawlspace, which was causing the floors to settle and become uneven. The homeowner was looking to even out the floor and our team of experts had the perfect solution.
To lift and level out the slab, we installed the effective PolyLevel system. We started by drilling multiple small holes into the slab, which were then injected with lightweight, high-density polymers. These polymers expanded to fill the void and level out the foundation slab. The installation was quick and caused little disruption to the home.
The homeowners in Hudsonvill, MI had so much moisture in their crawlspace that it was causing mold. This mold also brought a musty smell to the rest of their home. If there is moisture in your crawl space your energy bills will rise, unwanted pests will be living in there, and mold will start to grow causing bad smells and sometimes health problems for your family.

In Vicksburg, someone noticed that their porch was sagging away from the house like seen in the picture below. They needed help so they gave us a call. We came to their house and figured that we would install PolyLevel to level their porch out for good. PolyLevel is an advanved polymer injection foam that we inject into the concrete slab to raise it to its desired level and make it stronger than ever before. PolyLevel worked to raise and level out the concrete slabs while dealing with the weak soils below that were no longer able to hold the weight of the home above. We drilled multiple small holes into the concrete slabs in order to inject them with a polymer material that expanded to lift and level out the concrete. Once injected, the system only needed about 15 minutes to fully cure and the slabs were then stabilized and lifted to their proper level, and stronger than ever before. Now, this homeowner will not have to worry about this ever again.
This homeowner called us here at Ayers because his basement had over an inch of water throughout it. He had a sump pump but it was only working on half of the basement and there was tons of water coming in. After an inspection is was determined that the water was coming up through a crack in the ground. We were able to get our WaterGuard system installed to direct the water coming in and give it a path to get to the sump pump. We also installed cross tiles to ensure this basement never floods again. On top of our WaterGuard system we installed a new state of the art sump pump. Our TripleSafe is exactly what this basement needed. All three of its pumps work to make sure your basement stays dry. One of the pumps is even there for backup in case of a power outage and theres an alarm to alert you in case it can't keep up.

PolyLevel raises concrete through unique qualities of expanding polyurethane foam, making it: environmentally safe, affordable, waterproof to prevent future erosion, quick and mess free, and a permanent solution! PolyLevel not only results in a solution that looks better and lasts longer, it is also less destructive to the applied surface. PolyLevel was able to level the cement around Mark’s pool and make it look new again. If you find yourself struggling with cement issues like our new friend Mark, give us a call for a free estimate before you decide to replace your cement. We are grateful our new friend gave us the opportunity to make his pool a safer and more beautiful place to be.
Our friend Ryan, who’s a homeowner in Hudsonville, MI noticed the windows and doors beginning to stick in the front portion of his nearly 100-year-old home. Ryan knew this meant his home was on the move. Wanting to take a proactive approach and save his beautiful home, he began searching for local foundation experts. One of Ryan’s friends recommended Ayers to him and he gave us a call. Our experts calculated a plan to lift this portion of Ryan’s home back to its original position and permanently support its weight; to do this we used a series of five helical piers. These piers are long steel shafts, that are advanced deep into the ground to competent soil. The footing of the home sits on top of these shafts using a heavy-duty steel anchor. We installed these anchors by excavating soil from around the exterior of the home until we reached the footing. We advanced the helical piers from there creating a solid and permanent solution, in finishing the job we replaced the excavated soil. With these piers in place, we have allowed Ryan’s home to fully regain its stability.
Last week at school I had to create an app. So we decided to realize Cinewalk, an iOS application that allows you to discover cities through anthology movie scenes. You can locate yourself, find film locations, rediscover scenes with videos and photo and organized your own movie trip in a city !
Here's the logo I build along with my teammate @jeremyreveille, that represents both cinema and walk.
Hope you'll enjoy this little buddy and have great christmas holidays !
