Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Not all crawlspaces look gruesome (although not necessarily pretty) this does not mean they do not have issues. This space had moisture which was causing mold to grow on their homes beams eating the foundation. Now thanks to crawlspace encapsulation with the use of our Clean space this family has a clean crawlspace where mold cannot grow. They also chose the Silverglo rigid foam wall insulation. This helps to increase the homes energy savings and general performance. We were happy to be able to give them a healthy encapsulated crawlspace as well as reduced heating and cooling bills.

Wrapping posts properly ensures that water does not invade your space. This is taken from each side of the same corridor so show off posts as well as visibility. 

This homeowner had their crawl space worked on by a different company and started noticing that water was still intruding. They decided to reach out to John's Waterproofing about upgrading their system so that the crawl space would stay dry. Upon inspection, we discovered the original sump pump wasn't working properly and we suggested a Pipe Pump Plastic system that would keep the space dry without having to worry. The homeowner agreed and we got started. To begin, we needed to remove the previous vapor barrier because it had been destroyed by water flooding in and bringing outside dirt and debris. We even discovered water damage on some of the wooden posts supporting the home because there was no proper drainage system installed. After the vapor barrier was removed, we then installed a new drainage system. This involves laying a perforated pipe along the interior perimeter of the space and connecting it to a new SuperSump Plus sump pump. These two work together to collect water and safely push it out and away from the homes foundation. Lastly, to further protect against water damage, we installed a new vapor barrier. We overlap each seam of the liner so that no groundwater is capable of seeping over top of it and getting into the crawl space. It is installed along the base, up the foundation walls, and between the concrete footing and wooden posts. The goal of the new vapor barrier is to be able to isolate and protect against water from seeping through and causing more structural damage to the home. Now, this homeowner doesn't have to worry about their crawl space flooding.

This customer did not have a properly sealed crawlspace entrance and unfortunately, outside elements had gotten in their crawlspace.  Our inspector went out and recommended replacing the entrance to the crawlspace. Our crew installed an EverLast crawlspace door that can never rot away. It is completely sealed to the foundation so you don't have to worry about leaking water or other pests getting in. This customer was so relieved to have their crawlspace sealed properly and it has a nice clean finish to the outside of their home. 

After our team finished installing our patented CleanSpace system we could just leave this ugly entry as the first sight of our new beautiful crawlspace. Manuel and his team installed an Everlast door to not only make the entry more appealing, but also easier to access.
