Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

When a potential buyer asked if there was anything that could be done about this Edwardsburg, MI crawl space, the current owner and real estate agent called us out for help. The dirt floor in the before picture makes for an easy passageway for moisture to enter the crawl space and cause problems. However, the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier that was installed would put a stop to that. The CleanSpace barrier, seen in the after photo, is impenetrable by moisture or vapor. It’s the type of long lasting encapsulation that future owners know they can depend on. And if the vapor barrier wasn’t enough on its own, CleanSpace wasn’t the only thing added to the home. The yellow lid in the after photo is our SmartSump. Our SmartSump system is a sump pump designed specifically for crawl spaces that will discharge any water that does enter for maximum crawl space protection. Whoever ends up buying this home will be lucky enough to also receive a full crawl space encapsulation system.

These Charlotte, MI residents were experiencing water seepage through the poured walls in their crawlspace and were concerned about mold growth.

We installed our patented CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. CleanSpace is a 20mm thick plastic lining that completely seals off the crawl space from the elements below. No more water or cold air can enter the crawl space with this installment. CleanSpace is made with anti-microbial properties that prevent mold growth, so these residents can rest assured that their basement will not fall victim to mold.

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!
