John's Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Upon inspection of this homes crawl space, our design specialist discovered that several of the original wooden subfloor posts had lifted entirely off of their footings. This had harmed the stability and integrity of the subfloor, causing uneven, sloped, and bouncy floors inside of the home. The job of a subfloor is to provide even weight distribution of the overhead home. When subfloors become compromised, homes become unstable, and the entire structure suffers as a result - often leading to worsening structural failure throughout the home, as well as a diminished level of comfort and safety for families. Subfloor failure is commonly caused by ground water intrusion into the homes crawl space, eroding away the dense soil that is needed to firmly hold the home in place. Ground water intrusion into crawl spaces causes shifting of foundation walls, footings, and subfloor components - all compounding together, leaving the home at great risk of significant structural failure. This is why professional home waterproofing is so important.

Homes that are waterproofed, are protected from the devastating effects of water damage - saving families time, money, and frustration, while improving overall quality of life. In order to return integrity and stability to this homes subfloor, our crew of structural experts removed all of the failed wooden subfloor piers, and replaced them with our heavy-duty steel SmartJack posts. SmartJacks are carefully adjusted by hand, until even weight distribution is achieved throughout the entirety of the subfloor, and interior floors are once again perfectly level. SmartJacks are a permanent solution for uneven flooring, and remain in place for the life of the home. As an added bonus, they are easily adjustable in the future if need be, and because they are made of steel, they last, offering far superior strength compared to traditional wooden posts. This family can now enjoy level, sturdy flooring inside of their home for many years to come.

Crawl space located in Cottage Grove, OR where we did a full encapsulation with CleanSpace material, isolating the posts to ensure they stayed dry and mold free.

This crawlspace was not easily accessible, to make it easily inspected our crew dug out the entrance, safely cut the concrete and added in a Turtl Crawlspace doorway.

This homes old vapor barrier had not been properly sealed, allowing high humidity levels to pernitrate the crawlspace. This lead to drooping fiberglass insulation. Over the years this added a debris build up on the barrier that left the crawlspace ill-protected. To keep this issue from happening again, we installed a full Crawlspace Encapsulation. 

This home had a dark, damp, and musky basement. The homeowners couldn't use this space due to the mold and water. To reclaim this space we installed a WaterGuard drainage system, TripleSafe Sump pump, and BrightWall Panels.
