This dirty vapor barrier is proof of an existing and reoccurring moisture issue. When the rains start this will begin to accumulate on the vapor barrier again.
The customers called due to constantly being sick from mold growth that started from the crawl space
This home was built on a hillside and the slope carried water where it would puddle in the low spot. To address the issues properly, the homeowner wanted to have a full encapsulation.
This customer called about water getting into the crawlspace and wanting to look into options to waterproof. We went out and replaced the crawl space access well to give better protection and more durability. Before it was a short access that could rust and had a dirt bottom. The door was not properly sealed shut and left the crawl space vulnerable to water, leaves, and pests. The EverLast system is made with long-lasting materials that will never rust, corrode, support mold growth, or rot. No ugly eyesore in your yard. It is finished with river rock to avoid puddling and mud against your foundation. The customer was pleased with how well it blended with the landscape and knowing it was going to last the life of the house.
The Homeowner was constantly battling with a musty smell in her home. No matter what she did, or cleaner she used, the smell just wouldn't go away. When she heard John talk about musty smells possibly coming from your crawlspace she called us out to investigate. Sure enough that was where Janine's problem began. The relative humidity in Janine's crawlspace was 70% (it is relative humidity that leads to moisture and unwanted smells) and the dank air filled the room. We encapsulated her crawlspace, installed a dehumidifier and solved Janine's problem. Now the air in her house is clean and she is saving every month on her heating and cooling.
