Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Professional, Efficient, and Effective Crawl Space Waterproofing - Waldport, OR

Homeowners have entrusted the experts here at John's for over half of a century, to professionally waterproof their homes. This homes crawl space had suffered from water intrusion for many years, creating an environment beneath the home that was both toxic, and threatening the homes stability. Persistent moisture had caused the subfloor insulation to rot and fall to the ground, leaving the home poorly insulated, while the dropped pieces of insulation became ideal bedding for rodents - worsening the condition of the crawl space. Additionally, the original vapor barrier was filthy, torn, and no longer able to perform its duty of preventing moisture from seeping in through the ground and walls. Lastly, standing water accumulation had eroded the soil in the crawl space, causing the foundation walls to shift under the extreme weight of the home - creating a crack. Without professional waterproofing and repairs, this crack in the concrete foundation wall would only worsen with time, eventually leading to extensive structural instability and damage. To repair the crack, we bonded its edges together with our Crack Epoxy Injection. The bonding strength of this Epoxy is extreme - offering long term effectiveness, by prohibiting the growth of the crack while holding the edges firmly in place to protect the stability of the home. In order to prevent further water damage, our crew of waterproofing experts installed our tried and true, Pipe, Pump, Plastic. Our PPP System has been implemented successfully for decades, to protect homes and families from the devastating effects of water damage. As an added bonus, our PPP System is also budget-friendly, making it accessible for more families, and can be easily upgraded in the future to an Encapsulation. When preparing to install the PPP System, our crews first clean out the crawl space, removing all debris and insulation, until the space is nice and clean. Next, a shallow trench is dug along the full interior perimeter of the space, to hold our 3" Perforated Piping. From now on, as water enters the space, it will be caught in the Piping, and routed to a TripleSafe Sump Pump, for immediate expulsion far away from the home via an underground discharge line. Our TripleSafe Sump Pump is a 3-pump-in-1 system, where each pump is activated if the one ahead of it is overwhelmed by water volume. The third and final pump is fully battery-operated, ensuring functionality even in the event of a power outage. Thanks to the professional, efficient, and effective installation of our tried and true waterproofing system, this family can now thrive in a dry, clean, and stable home for many years to come!
