Transforming a Filthy Crawl Space in Siletz, OR

This homeowner was looking for a solution to take their filthy, dirty and pest infested crawl space into a healthy and stable one. They called John's to schedule their free visit with us. One of our system design specialist went out and thoroughly inspected the crawl space. Afterwards, our design specialist met with the homeowners to go over the best options for them and the plan to permanently transform their crawl space. They decided to move forward with the estimate and we began the project by removing all of the debris and old damaged vapor barrier. Since this crawl space did not have much water intrusion, we installed our SmartDrain. This system will alert the homeowner of a possible plumbing leak with an audible alarm and will drain the water to a drywell underneath the encapsulation. Next, we make sure to cover all of the vents to prevent water from entering. We then, install our TerraBlock system onto the dirt floor of the crawl space to provide an insulated barrier between the home and the earth. On top of the TerraBlock, we install our CleanSpace system. It is also anchored into the foundation walls up to the joists, then sealed at the footing of the wooden posts with our waterproof tape. To keep the crawl spaces humidity controlled, we install our SaniDry Sedona. This effective dehumidifier will eliminate musty odors by drying and filtering the air. To finish this project, we install our foam insulation. This is sprayed onto the foundation walls up to the rim joists and will expand, filling every crack and void to guarantee a complete airtight seal. Now that this crawl space is transformed, the homeowners can be sure their home is protected for years to come.
