This homes crawl space was a general mess. From critters creeping in, organic material drafting through, and some old bits of fiberglass along the floor the crawl space could use some work. Instead of just replacing the old vapor barrier though, the homeowners wanted to install insulation that lasted, so they called up John's Waterproofing for our encapsulation which includes insulation that is made to last in a crawl space environment.
This homeowner knew that every Winter, their crawl space would get wet. Their water issue would return and their home would smell damp through the rainy season. They knew there had to be a solution to their issue, so they called up John's Waterproofing and scheduled their free inspection. After we did a full crawl under the home and walked around the homes exterior we sat down with the owners and crafted a solution.
This was a very large crawl space, having this large of space saturated in water is not a good thing. We came out to this home and installed our CleanSpace Encapsulation system, SaniDry Dehumidifier, a SmartSump sump pump and spray foamed it to transform this space into a dry usable area.
This home suffered from a lot of water damage. There were rotten wooden posts and the old fiberglass insulation was falling in piles. To fix this issue we did a full crawlspace encapsulation; UltraSump Pump, TerraBlock, CleanSpace, Spray Foam, and replaced eight of the wooden posts under the home.
Flooding is definitely the easiest way to determine a water issue is happening. This homeowner noted a damp and musty smell coming from their crawlspace. They opened the crawlspace entryway in one of their closets and could see standing water throughout the space. They had seen John's trucks go through town and gave us a call. Our crew began with a full dry out of the space and cleared it of the debris, fiberglass, and old vapor barrier. Mold X 2 was applied as needed and we installed a full encapsulation to protect this home.
