Crawl Space Repair in Portland, OR

This homeowner wanted to create extra storage space so they went to their crawl space and when they saw the condition it was in, they called us up to set up their free estimate and inspection. Our system design specialist met with the homeowners to go over the best game plan to achieve a dry, healthy and stable crawl space. They went forward with the estimate and scheduled the project.  We begin by removing all of the debris along with the vapor barrier and fiberglass insulation. Next, we install our SmartDrain system since there was not much water in this crawl space. This system will alert the homeowner of a possible plumbing leak and with an audible alarm and will drain it away to a drywell under the CleanSpace until they can address it. We then install our TerraBlock system onto the dirt floor to create an insulated barrier between the home and earth. This will block any moisture that is trying to make its way up through the ground. Afterwards, we install our CleanSpace system on top of the TerraBlock, on the foundation walls up to the rim joists and on the footing of the wooden posts which is then sealed with our waterproof tape. We cover all of the vents to ensure not outside air comes in. To keep this environment controlled, we install our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier which will effectively eliminate damp and musty odors by drying and filtering the air. This also helps keep the home at a healthy relative humidity. To finish, we install our spray foam insulation onto the foundation walls, making sure to fill every crack and void to guarantee an airtight seal, completely protecting and creating a dry, stable and healthy home.
