Cinder block walls in crawl spaces are known for their lack of water and air resistant properties. Their porous and leaky features lead to water seeping in which was what we found in this Marshall, MI crawl space.
With CleanSpace wrapped around the walls, this liner will act as a vapor barrier to keep moisture out of the house. CleanSpace is durable and mold resistant and transformed this area from wet to dry.
Kim and John were concerned about the damage water in their crawl space could do, once they noticed some coming in from hairline cracks in the wall. Their crawl space was small, but after meeting with one of our system design specialists, they knew that they needed to give the issue their attention.
Our team’s first step was to repair the cracks in the wall to prevent water from seeping in. Using FlexiSpan, a three-step process using flexible sealant, foam, and an impermeable membrane, the cracks were fixed. The next step was to encapsulate the space to stop water vapor from the floor and water that may come in at other points in the future.
A specially engineered multi-layered liner, CleanSpace, was also fixed to the walls in the crawl space. This white liner not only brightens up the space, but it’s durable and provides a vapor barrier, keeping the space clean and dry.
Rachelle has a swamp behind her home and her crawl space gets a musty smell in the summer. She called us to get the craw space encapsulated. We first laid down Drainage Matting to direct the flow of any water towards the sump pump to be expelled outside of the area. We then installed the CleanSpace Crawl Space Vapor Barrier to keep out humidity and water vapor. These will keep out water, smells, and pests that are unwanted in the crawl space to create the area a homeowner could be happy about!
Rachelle has a swamp in the backyard that she thinks causes a musty smell in her crawl space during summer months. She wanted the smell to be taken care of and get her crawl space encapsulated. We first installed Drainage Matting to direct any water to the sump pump to be expelled out of the area. We then installed CleanSpace to keep out water vapor, pests, and humidity.
Kathryn realized the cold air entering her crawl space must be causing her frigid upstairs floor. After researching her options, she called Ayers to have it sealed completely. We sent specialists to her house, and after evaluating the space, they recommended rim joist insulation. Sealing these small cracks and crevices creates a barrier against cold air, moisture, and allergens. Kathryn feels much more comfortable in her home!
