Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

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.

This home in Fremont, MI had both a Michigan basement and a crawl space beneath it. The homeowners had noticed that the oak floors above the crawl space would sag the summer months, and they soon realized they had a problem.

Our System Design Specialist, Sean, visited the home to explain to the homeowners what might be causing this and how to prevent it. Often times, as moisture enters the crawl space, it causes the floor joists to rot, which makes the floors above sag. It’s crucial that moisture be kept out of the space to prevent this.

To support the sagging floors in the crawl space, we installed a SmartJack stabilizer. This zinc- coated beams was connected to the girder and tightened into place. SmartJacks help lift the floors above back to their original position.

In order to keep moisture out to prevent the rotting of the floor joists, it was necessary that we seal off the space from the earth. Using CleanSpace, an extremely durable crawl space liner, we did exactly this. The liner is even manufactured with an antimicrobial additive to prevent mold growth.

By giving this crawl space some attention by sealing it off and adding support for the floors, the homeowners can be sure that the floors above the space will be stable in the future. 

Tim knew there was water moisture in the crawl space beneath his home and needed to do something about it. He wasn't sure how to remedy the situation, so he called Ayers to learn about our waterproofing solutions. Our specialists visited his home to evaluate the situation and recommend a solution. They suggested installing CleanSpace, an antimicrobial-lined vapor barrier built to eliminate mold and moisture entry. CleanSpace is durable and ready to be stepped/walked on without compromising. Tim loves the new look of his crawl space!
