Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

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!

Although there wasn't moisture in the crawl space when he called, Peter wanted to keep it that way and encapsulate the crawl space under the home his father had built in the early 1970s.

We used CleanSpace vapor barrier with drainage matting to protect the crawl space, and put vent covers over the crawl space vents to prevent the entry of water and debris.

Donna attempted to fix her crawl space moisture issues by herself with a tarp she bought from the store. She quickly realized this tarp would not hold up well in the long run. It started collecting dirt and moisture, so she called Ayers for our crawl space solutions. Our system design specialists inspected the area and concluded CleanSpace would do the trick. CleanSpace prevents water vapor from entering through the soil and crawl space walls. Before installing the airtight plastic liner, we place our drainage matting on the floor. The dimpled mat allows water to flow under the liner to a sump pump in the crawl space floor. The antimicrobial liner prevents the growth of mold or bacteria. Donna is over the moon with the professional new look of her crawl space!

This clean space was musty and had become a home for mice. The owners of the lake cottage wanted that fixed. The answer for them was our CleanSpace encapsulation system which helps create a moisture barrier to keep any water seepage and harmful water vapors separate from the home above. The CleanSpace system is durable and resistant to tearing as well as being mold and mildew resistant. 

These homeowners scored some additional energy savings as well while we were at it by adding SilverGlo insulation to the walls and SilverGlo insulation to the floors which help to reflect heat back into the home and create an additional vapor barrier. The results are astounding.
