Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

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.

This homeowner was experiencing musty smells throughout their home and mold in the basement. In addition to the Drainage Matting that allows water to flow freely to the sump pump, this homeowner added a CleanSpace vapor barrier and SaniDry dehumidifier to keep the moisture out and eliminate the mold and nasty smells. 

Residents in Meridian Charter Township turned their crawl space into a clean space by having one of our professional teams install our patented CleanSpace encapsulation system. With this installment, the crawl space in this home is now protected from the elements, sealed air-tight, and preventative of any coldness or moisture entering into the home through the floor up.

The sloping crawl space seen in the before photo was in need of an encapsulation, badly. The owners had already seen mold and standing water present. Lucky for the owners, they had used Ayers for foundation repairs in the past and knew that crawl space encapsulations were just another one of our specialties. The white liner in the after photo is our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier. As you can see, the barrier was used to cover the entire crawl space dirt floor and part way up the walls. For the rest of the walls, the crew used our SilverGlo Wall panels. The silver panels are insulation that reflects heat back to its source. By regulating moisture in the crawl space, this will help rid this home of its past mold problems.
