Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A vented crawl space in Farmington Hills was causing a persistent, musty smell that spread throughout the home, raising concerns about mold and air quality. Ayers installed CleanSpace® vapor barrier, a SaniDry™ dehumidifier, and an airtight EverLast™ crawl space door to tackle moisture and odors. Now, the space is clean, dry, and odor-free, giving the homeowner a healthier, more comfortable living environment.

Rebecca and her son, Sy, both suffer from severe allergies, with Sy being particularly sensitive to mold. She noticed a musty smell coming from beneath her Farmington Hill, MI home, which made her even more concerned after finding mold around the HVAC registers. With plans to stay in her home for quite a few years, she wanted to tackle the problem now to protect both their health and the home’s future resale value.

After a thorough inspection, our System Design Specialist recommended installing a CleanSpace liner, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and crawl space vent covers. The CleanSpace liner seals off the crawl space from moisture, pests, and outdoor air—the main contributors to mold growth and poor air quality. The SaniDry Sedona helps keep humidity low, reducing the conditions mold needs to thrive.

By the project's end, Rebecca and Sy could immediately breathe easier, knowing their home was now shielded against allergens and mold was a concern of the past making her very happy with the results.

Mark was concerned about moisture he found seeping into his basement. He never liked the eye sore and knew it was time to act to prevent further damage to his belongings or his home. He researched his options and called Ayers for help, so we sent a team of experts to evaluate the space and provide a solution. The crew suggested installing CleanSpace, an antimicrobial-lined vapor barrier, to eliminate moisture and reduce mold growth. CleanSpace is applied to the basement walls without interruption to ensure complete encapsulation. Mark loves his clean basement!

Mike and Denise, owners of a beautifully maintained 180-year-old home in Concord, MI, wanted to improve the condition of their crawl space, which had long been a source of frustration due to its unpleasant environment. They contacted Ayers Basement Systems and we created a custom solution including spray foam insulation, dimple board for drainage, TerraBlock™ for added insulation, and CleanSpace® vapor barrier for full encapsulation. Our crew executed the project with precision and professionalism, transforming the crawl space into a clean, dry, and energy-efficient area. Mike and Denise were thrilled with the results, noting the crew's respectful approach and the significant improvement to their historic home.

Mary worried moisture entering her crawl space could cause mold growth and structural damage to her home, so she called Ayers to learn about our waterproofing solutions. Our specialists stopped by her house and suggested installing EverLast doors. Crawl space doors are typically made with plywood that's not fit to prevent moisture. The EverLast door is strong, plastic, and won't crack, warp, or shrink over time. Mary is happy she called Ayers and got the job done quickly!
