This homes crawl space was a mess of old fiberglass that was adding no real insulation value to the home. To get the space done properly, the homeowner called up John's Waterproofing and scheduled their free inspection. They chose to encapsulate the space, providing them with lasting insulation as well as a system that will keep their home dry, stable, and healthy throughout the years.
This homeowner purchased the home with a "drainage" system already in place. They soon found out that it was a flawed system that did not work. The previous owner put a sump pump outside by the French drain with good intentions of pumping the water that was draining out of the crawlspace away from the home. It just wasn't the correct solution for this home. We installed a smartsump sump pump inside the crawlspace along with Cleanspace, silver glo and a Sedona dehumidifier to give the crawlspace the proper drainage, moisture protection and insulation it so badly needed.
This wall had a large horizontal crack that had begun expanding. The homeowner was right to be concerned and our team set to work reinforcing the wall to make sure the wall would not crumble. The team planted power braces deep into the concrete floor and snug against the wall.
The customer lives along the coastline, so being in a moist climate did their crawlspace more harm than good. Along with no one being down there for quite some time, it ended up being in shambles. So Pedro and his crew cleaned it out and installed a 6 mil Vapor Barrier to help protect the home from water intrusion.
Water absorbs into old fiberglass like a sponge, making it water heavy and grow mold. This homes old insulation was a mess, and the homes heating and cooling costs were high. With a full encapsulation we were able to help them regain control over their HVAC costs and make their home dry and healthy!
