Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Water kept entering this home's crawl space even after these homeowners had tried to fix the problem themselves and even hired other companies. They realized that all of their solutions were only temporary, so they finally decided it was time to find a permanent solution. They called us up and scheduled their free visit. We went out and performed a thorough inspection, then met with the homeowners to discuss the findings and go over the best options to create a dry, healthy and stable crawl space. After answering some more questions, the homeowners signed the estimate and we started the project. First, we remove all of the debris, old vapor barrier and fiberglass insulation. Next, we dug a trench around the interior perimeter of the crawl space and in it we install a 3 inch perforated pipe into a silt sock. This will secure a safe passage for water to drain to the lowest point. Then, at this low point we install our SuperSump Plus system that will collect all of the water that enters and pump it outside of the home, away from the foundation through a discharge line. We make sure all of the vents get covered and sealed to prevent outside air from entering. We install TerraBlock onto the dirt floor of the crawl space which separates the home from the earth with an insulated barrier. On top of the TerraBlock, we install our CleanSpace system, and it is also anchored into the foundation walls, up to the rim joists. This is our 20 mil-thick liner that will not only protect the crawl space but will also brighten up the space with its clean, bright white finish. Lastly to finish up this project, we install our foam insulation directly onto the foundation walls, up to the rim joists. This is sprayed and expands, filling every crack and void to ensure a complete airtight seal. Now that the crawl space is fully encapsulated, the risk of water damage has been effectively eliminated. 

Moisture can cause a lot of damage to the home, especially if left unattended for years, This home would need to be treated for mold, and than we were able to come in to waterproof so we could keep the space dry and healthy. To care for the home, we installed a full encapsulation. This system involves a full interior perimeter drain system, with a TripleSafe sump pump. We also insulate the space using methods that are made to last and fit into the crawl space. This involves TerraBlock along the dirt floor, paired with Spray Foam insulation along the foundation walls and into the rim joists. We also seal the vents shut so we can control the space. CleanSpace is wrapped throughout the crawl space, allowing us to than control the environment under the home with a SaniDry dehumidifier. With control over the moisture content, we can make it so mold and mildew will not find a way back under the home, and it can truly remain dry and healthy over the years.
