Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Dirt crawl spaces are a pain to deal with. They let in outside elements such as water, cold air and bugs - all things no one wants in their home. The first step to eliminating these problems is fixing the water leakage by having a sump pump installed. The next step is isolating the house from the earth. This is where our CleanSpace system that is shown in the picture, works great. It encapulates the entire crawl space making sure no water, bugs, or unwanted cold/hot air can get in. The third step is to make sure all windows and vents are properly sealed off to the outside as well. Lastly, you want to condition or dehumidify the crawl space air. We have a great unit for this called the SaniDry Sedona, also pictured. It's efficient at stopping mold growth and getting rid of that musty smell. 

Pat had water coming into his crawl space. He needed it sealed off and encapsulated before the moisture caused any serious damage. Our team came out and installed CleanSpace, the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and an EverLast Crawl Space Door. Typical wood crawl space doors can deteriorate over time and can allow insects and other pests to get in your crawl space. Not to mention, wood leaves room for outside air which makes the space cold and damp. Everlast doors are made from thick PVC Plastic and secured with weatherproof knobs. Unlike wood, it won't shrink or deteriorate over time and it won't require any maintenance. Once installed, the door will ensure that your space is sealed off from outside intrusions and keeps the space warm. CleanSpace 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. 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 house healthier. This way Pat won’t have to worry about any more moisture getting into his space or any further damage that the moisture could cause. His basement will be encapsulated and protected against any moisture that may intrude into his space. 

Sally C. and her fiancé built an addition on their home that was built above the crawl space. During the cold, winter months, they were experiencing drafts in the room located above that space. Without an encapsulated and insulated crawl space, this would continue to be a problem for these homeowners and they needed an easy and effective way to fix it.

Our team of experts decided to install SilverGlo panels, CleanSpace and an EverLast door.

We first installed the SilverGlo wall panels that reflect heat back into the space and prevent drafts in the home. These wall panels are made from inorganic materials that make them moisture and mold resistant.

The waterproof and vapor proof CleanSpace liner was installed next to seal the crawl space off from any type of moisture. The liner is extremely durable and securely fastened to the walls to prevent it from falling down or becoming damaged over time. 

Lastly, we installed an EverLast crawl space door to create an airtight barrier between the outside environment and the crawl space. The door is waterproof and made with inorganic materials that will protect it from rust, rot and mold.

Laura was hoping to encapsulate her crawl space properly to ensure her home's protection. She called Ayers for the job and we had a crew come out to her home to figure out the best solution for her. It was settled that she would need our CleanSpace solution. CleanSpace is a thick, durable plastic liner that is placed along the crawl space floor and walls to protect the space from excess moisture or water development. Its vapor barrier property specifically defends against bacteria or mold development that comes from this excess moisture. 

Laura was relieved to have her crawl space professionally sealed and protected!

Don't let your crawl space live up to the stereotype; get the CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. CleanSpace is a 20 mil thick plastic liner that is fitted to your crawl space to entirely seal it off from the earth. A family in Fremont, MI had us install this system to ensure no moisture or cold air would get into their crawl space, leading to cold air and moisture entering their home from the floor up. In addition, CleanSpace is made with an antimicrobial, hindering the growth of mold. Goodbye gross, grimy crawl space -- hello CleanSpace.
