Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: CleanSpace Encapsulation Restores Irons, MI Summer Home

The time to make repairs to your summer home isn't the summer - it's now, when you aren't living there. Our customer called with a crawl space that started having problems when a pipe burst last spring. He already had a dehumidifier, but that isn't enough when there's an active water leak. Once the leak was repaired, we installed the CleanSpace vapor barrier system with drainage matting to assist in draining any future ambient moisture. We also installed SilverGlo insulation panels to keep the house above the crawl space protected from the ground temperatures.

Water Damage on Support Beams

In addition to making your crawl space smell and look gross, water issues can damage support beams, causing them to weaken. CleanSpace prevents water from hanging in the air and rotting your beams.

Water Damage and Mold

Flooding, or even an excess of ambient moisture and humidity, can cause problems like mold and rusting on walls and beams.

Drainage Matting Allows for Easier Water Drainage

When there is a known water issue in a crawl space, installing drainage matting between the ground and the crawl space allows for easier draining. The raised surface of the matting creates enough space for water to flow easily to your sump pump.

CleanSpace Encapsulation Protects Your Crawl Space

Installing CleanSpace vapor barrier protects your crawl space from the ground, and protects your house from your crawl space. SilverGlo insulation panels help to keep the outside temperature from affecting the inside temperature.
