Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Wet Crawl Space in Fennville, MI Completely Transformed

This home was for sale but there was water issues in the basement that needed to be taken care to make it more appealing to a buyer. The floor above the crawl space was beginning to bow, there was wood rot, standing water and even open vents to the outside. There was lots that needed taken care of, but they called the right people for the job. We were able to install our CleanSpace system, vent covers, a new sump pump, a SaniDry sedona dehumidifier, a lawnscape outlet, and even smart jacks. This home got lots of work done but we're glad we could give them peace of mind knowing their home is waterproofed and safe for years to come.

Block Walls Allow Water in Easily

Block walls are hollow, porous and easily allow water and water vapor to get in your crawl space. These blocks suck up water from the ground and make a wet surface on the inside of the crawl space walls which eventually will evaporate into your crawl space. Let's be real no one wants water in their home.

Fiberglass Insulation is not Always the Best Option

The first thing wrong here is the plastic facing over this insulation prevents the insulation from being able to dry when it gets wet. It will then get heavy begin to droop and eventually fall out. Fiberglass insulation is also not a good option because it has some organic material in it which allows mold to grow. No one wants mold in their home even in the crawl space.

Crawl Space Entry Acts as Another Vent

This entry way to the crawl space acts as another vent to let in unwanted critters, water, or hot/cold air. By letting in hot air on a summer day and cold air on a winter day this can cause your utility bills to increase and make your heating/air condition units work overtime.

Crawl Space Vents are Not Good

Vents do more harm than good when it comes to your crawl space. They let in hot, cold and even wet air. They can also let in water which is not something anyone wants to deal with.

CleanSpace Serves Many Purposes

CleanSpace completely encapsulates a crawl space. It makes sure no water, air, our any other outside elements such as critters can get inside. Not to mention it also really cleans up the look of this crawl space and brightens it up.

SmartPump Sump Pump is Specifically Designed for Crawl Spaces

This sump pump pumps the water out of your crawl space automatically. It comes with a stand for the pump, pump alarms if the sump is ever failing and it can tell you if there is plumbing leaks.

SmartJacks Stabilize Bowing Floor Joists

These SmartJacks are made of steel and are laboratory tested to to support loads of more than 60,000 pounds. These will work to not only stabilize the floor joists above the crawl space but to lift them back to their original position.
