Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Luanna needed help keeping water from entering her crawl space. She believed it was coming from her neighbor's discharge line so she called our team. We installed CleanSpace, an uninterrupted vapor barrier. This material is applied to the walls and floor of your crawl space. It restricts all moisture, outside air, and pests from entering your crawl space. This system creates an energy-efficient crawl space, and it also gives your crawl space a clean finish. 

A customer had cold air and moisture leaking into her crawl space so she called our team for help. Small cracks and seams can exist around rim joists, but after insulating them all of those cracks are sealed off. Now airflow and moisture is restricted keeping outside air and moisture out and inside air and moisture in.

Peter called us because he had a moisture problem in his crawl space. The crawl space was uneven so it caused about half of it to have standing water. We had just the solution to help him close off the space and keep it dry. First we laid down Drainage Matting which has dimples in it to allow to the flow of water to the sump pump to be expelled out of the area. Then we installed the CleanSpace Crawl Space Vapor Barrier which is is a very thick liner similar to that of a pool liner. It prevents humidity and water vapor from passing through into the space to keep it dry. As an added bonus the liner has an additive which is mold resistant and the plastic vapor barrier deters pests. Lastly, we installed the SaniDry Sedona, a high-performance dehumidifier and filtration system. It has a small size perfect for a crawl space, eliminates musty odors, and helps keeps the humidity out.

Mike and Dee wanted to seal out any moisture that was potentially intruding in their home. Moist air can lead to many more serious problems such as compromising the foundation and contributing to allergens and things that decrease the air quality of the home. To help with this, our team came out and installed CleanSpace, pictured here, and the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. The SaniDry Sedona is more powerful than any other dehumidifier and drains automatically so you don't have to worry about emptying the water yourself. It will control the humidity and make sure to stop mold growth, kill dust mites, and make your whole home healthier. Clean space is an uninterrupted vapor barrier designed to keep out any unwanted pests, moisture, and mold. This barrier restricts airflow and therefore makes controlling the temperature of the home much easier. CleanSpace is applied to the floors and walls and wrapped around pillars and piers carefully to ensure that the space looks clean and refreshed. Now there are no worries of any moisture in the space or in the air. Mike and Dee are protected from any and all intrusions.

These Beaverton, MI customers called because they were interested in crawl space insulation and an encapsulation. As you can see in the before photo, they already had a system in place, but sadly, it wasn’t getting the job done. Many use plastic tarps like these to encapsulate their crawl spaces. The problem is they’re not guaranteed to keep water out, at least, not like our CleanSpace system. CleanSpace is a vapor barrier that is impenetrable by moisture.

Seen in the after photo, the liner covers the entire dirt floor, one of the most common places for moisture to enter crawl spaces. To give the customers the insulation they were looking for, the crew also installed the silver wall panels in the after photo. These panels are referred to as our SilverGlo Wall Insulation. The silver surface reflects heat back to its source, just like the radiant barriers placed behind car windshields. With these two systems in place, this crawl space is now protected from moisture and abnormal temperatures.
