The customer called due to concerns on a small vapor barrier covered crawl space in the basement. There were a very strong musty smell and moldy shelves that were next to it, which were also raising red flags. We encapsulated the small crawl space and got a dehumidifier down in the daylight basement to regulate any unforeseen future humidity problems.
This customer called because they had a musty smell coming into their home from their crawlspace. The crawlspace was dusty, had some moisture on the vapor barrier, and had a strong musty smell. Our crews went in and encapsulated the crawlspace using our CleanSpace Vapor barrier. It is 20 mils thick and is rip resistant to keep animals and bugs out. We also installed our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to help keep the moisture out of the crawlspace and filter the air. After encapsulating the crawlspace the homeowner was so relieved that they didn't have a musty smell coming into their home.
This homes crawlspace had been suffering from water issues for a while. The standing water had led to mold issues and the homeowners wanted to handle the water before anything got worse. They chose to install a Pipe, Pump, and Plastic in 2017. This includes a simple 6 mil vapor barrier that needs to be changed out every few years. Since the installation, it was replaced in 2019, and is scheduled to be replaced in 2024. This barrier is prone to moving around if stepped on, and critters can chew threw/rip the barrier. Due to this, annual maintenance to check on its integrity is important.
