John's Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Crawl space in Vancouver, WA that just wasn't running as efficiently as it should be and needed some updating. A SaniDry XP dehumidifier was installed which helps large areas that are plagued by excess humidity along with SaniDry upper and lower duct kit and CleanSpace, ensuring this customer has a dry clean efficiently running system underneath his house.

This homes crawl space emitted a foul odor that was wafting throughout the living spaces above. The owners were noticing that they were getting sick more often and wanted to find a way to make their home healthier. For a full solution for their home, they contacted John's Waterproofing and scheduled a free inspection. They wanted to get a solution that would last, and they were excited about the idea of encapsulation. This allows the space to be controlled and regulated. The relative humidity was kept at a healthy level and the space was sealed against exterior factors, keeping the air that travels from the crawl space up, healthier for the occupants of the home. 

This homes basement had long been an issue. The space flooded often and the owners had pretty much written the space off. This is until they began wishing they could add that square footage as storage. Now they had a reason to upgrade. They had the plumbing upgraded and had John's out to waterproof the space. We installed our WaterGuard drain system along the interior perimeter of the room. This collects and channels the water to the new TripleSafe sump pump. This than sends all the water safely away from the homes foundation. We then installed our BrightWall paneling along the foundation walls. This will provide a semi-finished look for the space, which is easy to clean and will not rot or mildew. The owners are excited to make use of this space for the first time since purchasing the home. 

With indoor allergens, this homeowner was concerned about their indoor air quality. They ended up hearing how the crawl space could negatively impact the living spaces air quality, so they figured it wouldn't hurt to have a free inspection for their crawl space so they could see what was going on down there. To improve their homes breathable air, they moved forward with a full encapsulation to keep their home healthier! 

A tall crawl space can be a wonderful storage space, and this homeowner was fully using the area. However, they noticed that the space was damp and some of the items boxes were exhibiting signs of water damage. Wanting to continue using the space as they wish, they knew they would have to find a way to keep this are dry. For this, they contacted John's Waterproofing to learn about encapsulation. The owners loved that the encapsulation seals the crawl space away from exterior factors. We also use a 20 Mil woven vapor barrier in our encapsulations, this has a 25 year warranty against rips and tears, making it very useful for crawl space storage. The woven fibers through this also make it helpful in deterring critters from coming into the space.  The owners were excited to get a full crawl space upgrade!
