Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner called about an issue with water entering the basement/crawlspace. No job is too tough for us! The CleanSpace system is a durable plastic liner that acts as a vapor barrier to keep moisture, humidity, and water leakages out of the home's crawlspace or basement. The CleanSpace was a perfect soultion to this problem. Transforming this Crawlspace into a CleanSpace.

This family opted to encapsulate their entire crawl space to prevent the spread of mold caused by standing water. Cold, unsealed crawlspaces also allow that cold air to travel to the living space above, which is why your floors are so cold. We also insulated the floors with TerraBlock Crawl Space Floor Insulation which can be installed on uneven surfaces and prevents moisture from entering your crawl space. We also insulated the rim joists which are a common entry point for cold, moist outside air. 

Troy noticed a musty smell wafting through the vents in his home and wasn't sure where it was coming from. After searching the whole house for the source, he wound up in a moist, moldy crawl space. He was unsure how to fix the issue himself, so he researched his options and called Ayers for help. Our specialists stopped by his house to evaluate the space and recommended installing the CleanSpace vapor barrier. CleanSpace is lined with antimicrobial material to eliminate moisture, reduce mold-growth, and it's designed to withstand walking and crawling. Troy can't believe his nose!

Dennis called up Ayers for crawl space repair options as his current support beams were failing on him. We had a crew come out to the home for a free inspection so we could determine the best solutions. Our solutions being SmartJacks as well as CleanSpace. SmartJacks will address the cracking support beams since these are strong, steel columns that are placed on solid, steel bases installed in the sub-floor and are capable of helping hold the weight of the home. We added a support beam above that we attached to the columns. This support system will provide Dennis much needed strength and stability. Next we added CleanSpace to help keep his crawl space in top notch shape as this is a thick, plastic liner with a vapor barrier that protects against excess moisture buildup that leads to mold or bacteria. Dennis's crawl space is now well supported and clean!

We sent our team at Ayers to a home in National City, Michigan, to help a customer encapsulate his dirt crawl space. Outside air and moisture will accumulate without proper protection, leading to detrimental issues in the long run. Our suggestion to Jerry was to install CleanSpace. We placed this antimicrobial waterproof liner along the crawl space floor and walls. The liner provides a vapor barrier between the damp soil and the home. Excess moisture leads to nasty mold and bacteria growth. Jerry's crawl space will remain protected for years to come!
