Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Encapsulation at The Oregon Coast - Depoe Bay, OR

When a homeowner reaches out to John's, we answer the call right away, and schedule a home visit with one of our highly trained design specialists. Upon arrival at the home, they will thoroughly inspect the crawl space and foundation, followed by detailing his findings to the homeowner, and offering professional, effective solutions. After the homeowner signs off on their repair plan, we schedule the job right away, ensuring swift action to protect homes and families from further water damage. On the day of the job, we clean out the entire crawl space, removing all debris and making sure the area is dry. Next, 2 layers of ground coverings are laid down, for insulation and waterproofing. First, TerraBlock is placed directly over the dirt floor, for insulation, followed by our 20 Mil CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, which is also attached onto the foundation walls, to prevent water from seeping in. To ensure that all ground water intrusion beneath the encapsulation is collected and expelled far away from the home, a TripleSafe Sump Pump is installed with a deducted electrical outlet from our electrical division. Maintaining a safe relative humidity beneath every home is of paramount importance, as 40% of interior air, comes from the crawl space. For this matter, a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier is installed, which will remove all allergens and toxins from the air, while preventing the growth of mold. Installation of this machine inside of an crawl space provides a healthier home for the family, as they breathe in clean, filtered air inside of their home. To keep rodents and debris from entering the space, all original vents are sealed, and an EverLast Access Door is installed to replace the original door. Our EverLast Doors are made of rigid plastic that will never rot or discolor, and when shut, no gaps exist along the edges. Lastly, our heavy-duty Spray Foam insulation is applied directly onto the foundation walls, until all crevices and voids are filled, and a 100% air-tight seal is achieved. John's encapsulated crawl spaces are sealed, waterproofed, and insulated entirely.
