Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Debris No More - Gold Bar, WA
A home in Gold Bar had something scary lingering below—its crawl space. Debris piled on top of debris littered the space; rodents and pests found their way inside through the exterior vents and a faulty crawl space entry. Our John's Waterproofing crew came out to the rescue, clearing out the mess and creating a cleaner, healthier environment below the home.
We removed all debris and installed a perimeter drain system within the crawl space and a sump pump to redirect the collected water away from the home. A new 6-mil vapor barrier was laid across the dirt floor, allowing for a protective barrier against moisture. Next, vent screens were attached over each exterior vent to help deter rodents, pests, and unwanted debris from entering the space again. Lastly, we installed a Turtl crawlspace door to replace the faulty opening that once served as the crawl space entry. This new door provides homeowners and our crew with easy access when needed, while keeping the unwanted visitors out. The homeowners can live at ease with a crawl space protected and clean, thanks to John's Waterproofing!
Debris Galore
The crawl space was filled to the brim with debris with fallen fiberglass insulation, rodent fencing, dirt, and trash.
Torn Vapor Barrier
The vapor barrier was torn and bunched up, no longer providing protection against moisture in the soil underneath.
Faulty Crawl Space Entry
The entryway was dirty and exposed, leaving the crawl space vulnerable to moisture, debris, rodents, and pests.
Turtl Crawl Space Entry Door
The Turtl, a heavy-duty entry door, was installed to provide easy access to the crawl space while sealing shut to keep water, rodents, and pests from getting inside.
New 6-Mil Vapor Barrier
A fresh 6-mil vapor barrier was anchored on the floor throughout the crawl space, not only allowing for a clean, finished look but also trapping moisture in the soil underneath it.
Clean Crawl Space
Once our work was complete, the crawl space was left looking clean and pristine.
