Trustworthy Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Crack Repair in Grand Ledge, MI

Complete Crawl Space Repair in Grand Ledge, MI

This customer called us out to have a look at his crawl space. The problem with using common plastics as a floor barrier is that they aren’t guaranteed to last. Systems like these tear easily, leaving the space unprotected and looking like a mess. If only there was an energy efficient solution that would make this crawl space good as new while also improving the home…

Our complete crawl space repair system uses a combination of different products - SilverGlo walls, TerraBlock floor insulation, and CleanSpace vapor barrier - all working together to make your crawlspace the best it can be. The SilverGlo walls and TerraBlock floor act as insulation to improve the energy efficiency of your home and provide another layer between the crawl space and outside world. The CleanSpace liner is the icing on the cake. It is attached to the walls and covers the entire floor to encapsulate the area with a durable, mold resistant material. With the entire crawlspace insulated and protected, this homeowner will now save himself from heat loss and future repairs. Let us know if your crawlspace could use saving, too. 

CleanSpace Keeps Water Out of a Grand Ledge, MI Home

After buying this house from his parents, this Grand Ledge, MI customer began to notice something strange happening to the crawl spaces. Water was building up behind the walls and leaking into the dirty crawl space. He gave us a call asking about a complete encapsulation to dry out his crawl space and keep it that way. Since there was already standing water in the crawl space, the crew needed to give it a way to escape. Our crew installed drainage matting to handle the issue. Drainage matting rests on the floor of the crawl space and will keep water from having a chance to puddle up by directing the flow to a drain. Once the matting was in place, the crew went about encapsulating the entire crawl space – floor, walls and all – with the CleanSpace. The plastic liner won’t allow moisture or humidity to permeate back into this crawl space.

BrightWall Panels Clean Up a Grand Ledge, MI Basement

The before photo of this basement shows how the leaking water caused water stains and damage to the walls. Water would leak in, flow down the wall, and puddle on the floor. Luckily, the basement was still unfinished, so the leaking water didn’t cause any damage to the carpet. Even better, the BrightWall panel solution in the after photo goes along great with unfinished basements.  The panels are made of rigid plastic and create a moisture barrier for the basement, meaning the water damage that occurred to the concrete walls won’t occur again. As water leaks down the walls, it will stay behind the panels - unseen by anyone in the basement - and flow to a perimeter drainage system at the foot of the wall.  You can see in the after photo where fresh concrete was poured to cover the drainage system. This basement will be fully protected and looking great for years to come.
