Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner was in search of a long-term solution. They had been replacing their simple 6 mil vapor barrier every few years and reattaching their old fiberglass when it fell or when it got too nasty. This was when they heard about encapsulation and were ready to see if it could protect their home. They reached out to John's Waterproofing and scheduled their free inspection, eager to learn. 

Our home owners knew they had some water under their house when they called our office, but they had no idea the extent of their water issue. When our inspector Bob went through his inspection and showed them the photos they were shocked to see close to 4" of water hiding under the black visqueen. The thin black plastic had floated on top effectively hiding the severity of the problem. 

This homes foundation was cracked and leaking, causing issues in the Crawlspace. We did a full encapsulation to solve this water issue. 

When a homes crawlspace suffers from post damage, the floors will slope, bounce, and doorways can stick. This home suffered those issues, and while the homeowners tried to shimmy the posts up, the issue kept coming back. To solve the problems we installed SmartJacks as needed and did a full encapsulation to protect the home from water damage coming back.
