John's Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This homeowner hadn't thought much about their crawlspace. However when their neighbors showed off their newly encapsulated crawlspace, these homeowners were anxious to have their crawlspace addressed. 

Before we came, leaky walls and windows left this space a dirty wet mess. When our crew was finished the family was able to make this another bedroom and have more space and comfort. 

Creaking floors and sagging had been a headache for this homeowner for some time. She wasn't sure how to fix it or why it was happening. She gave us a call for a free inspection and what we found was water in her crawlspace. The water had caused some of her posts to rot and were deteriorating. Our crew went in and removed the rotting posts and installed our SmartJack posts. They are made of stainless steel so it cannot be rusted, rotted, and are adjustable. The homeowner saw an immediate difference once the floor was level. 

This interior entrance to the crawlspace had fiberglass insulation strapped to it to try to provide insulation. But after absorbing moisture from the crawlspace, it had been tied up repeatedly so it wouldn't droop to the floor below. This was allowing mold spores to grow on this entrance door. A full encapsulation removes the need for any fiberglass and uses insulation made to last!

Water problems in the crawlspace can lead to many issues, including water stains on the old vapor barrier, moldy and drooping fiberglass insulation, and a build up of calcium deposits. To combat these issues, this homeowner decided to have a full encapsulation, turning their crawlspace into a dry and healthy space!
