Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

We know how much everyone hates having to go in their crawl space. It's dark, dusty, and even a little bit creepy and there's always a possibilty of those unwanted critters/insects. We think you should be able to enjoy or at least use every part of your home. That's why we will send a system design specialist in your crawl space or basement to take a look and see what we can to waterproof and make your space more liveable. 

In this home in Charlotte you can tell the crawl space was not an area these homeowners visted often. There's a dirt floor and insulation hanging, I mean let's be honest what would be the point of going down there. We were however, able to revive this space and make it usable to the owners. We have never understood the point of a dirt floor in a crawl space, you wouldn't use dirt for your basement floor so why is your crawl space any different. Also when that fiberglass insulation gets moisture in it, it will become heavy and fall. We can fix all of this with CleanSpace though. 

CleanSpace is a heavy plastic liner used to create the perfect vapor barrier in your crawl space. It is fitted to your crawl space to cover every post, the floor, the walls and anywhere we have to worry about water coming in. The best part for these homeowners now is that they can store stuff in their crawl space since that the floor isn't dirt anymore. It will keep moisture out and any critters. 

Carol has no issues in her crawl space except for all of the junk and debris. She wants the space cleaned out and encapsulated to ensure that there would not be issues with her crawl space down the road. We used Drainage Matting to have space between the ground and the liner. In case the intrusion of water was to happen, the matting has dimples to give water a channel to flow through and find its way to the sump pump. We also installed the SuperSump Plus sump pump system to keep water out of the crawl space. Lastly, we used the CleanSpace Crawl Space Vapor Barrier to keep out unwanted humidity, odors, pests, and water vapor. These will keep her space dry and protect the homes structure from mold or rot!

Richard took the initiative to call the professionals here at Ayers when he noticed his home in Charlotte, MI was having water issues in his crawl space. When Richard realized this was a major issue he sent Ayers System Design Specialists out to assess the situation. It was determined our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier was the best course of action. This CleanSpace System consists of a vapor moisture barrier that utilizes a thick plastic liner that runs along the basement and crawl space walls in order to keep them dry. This system will ensure your crawl space resists water leakage issues and will last for decades. 

The SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier was also determined necessary in this crawl space in order to remove excess moisture in the crawl space that could lead to potential damage. This system will not only protect against these water issues Richard was having, but also reduce how much it costs him to heat or cool his home. SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier removes water from the crawl space air and circulates the now dry air throughout the crawl space.

Richard can now put his anxieties over water issues aside as these professionally installed systems from Ayers will ensure his home remains water free!

The customer called because their crawl space had all of the usual problems - smelly, damp, making the floors above it cold - but they were concerned that it was too small to really be able to fix it.

While it's true that the access point and crawl space were only about two feet high, that's plenty of room for us! Just make sure to let us know in advance and we will send one of our smaller guys. It was no problem to install the CleanSpace vapor barrier system and we even put a new, better door on the crawl space.

This basement didn't often have water collecting in it but it definitely felt moist and it smelled musty. Our team had the fix. We installed a perimeter water proofing system along the base of the walls to collect and measurable amount of water seeping in. We then installed a SuperSump system to create a mechanism for that water to removed from the home. We then put BrightWall paneling on the walls. This paneling not only brightens up a room at a low cost but it also acts as a vapor barrier and allows any moisture to flow freely behind the paneling into the drainage system without the homeowner ever really knowing that its happening. Finally, we put a SaniDry XP dehumidifier in the space to remove water vapors from the basement and keep the space smelling great. The runoff from the dehumidifier will flow right into the sump system and out of the home.
