Upgrading a Crawl Space in Lynnwood, WA

These homeowners were looking to upgrade their crawl space to create additional storage in their home and gave us a call for a free visit. We went out and thoroughly inspected the crawl space and then met up with the homeowners to work on a plan that will help create a stable and healthy environment for them to have peace of mind about their crawl space. The homeowners then signed the estimate and we began this project. We start by removing all of the debris, fiberglass insulation and old vapor barrier. Since there was not much water, we install our SmartDrain system that will alert the homeowner of a possible plumbing leak with an audible alarm and will drain the leak into a drywell underneath the CleanSpace. We then cover all of the vents and seal them shut to prevent outside air from entering. Next, we install our TerraBlock system directly onto the dirt floor of the crawl space and this creates an insulated barrier between the home and the earth that will block any moisture from making its way up. We anchor our 20 mil thick CleanSpace system into the foundation walls, between the footing and wooden posts and over top of the TerraBlock system and this is sealed with our heavy duty CleanSpace tape. To keep the environment controlled we install our SaniDry Sedona. This is our powerful and highly effective dehumidifier that will eliminate damp and musty odors while drying and filtering the air. It will also keep the home at a healthy relative humidity, improving overall indoor air quality. Lastly we install our spray foam insulation directly onto the foundation walls up to the rim joists, filling every crack and void, ensuring a complete airtight seal and no air leaks. With this full encapsulation, these homeowners can be sure their home is protected for years to come and they can now use this clean, healthy and stable crawl space as extra storage.
