The access to the crawlspace was very small and difficult to get in and out of, the cement barrier around it let water and debris pour in to the uncovered access hole. Cables and wires were exposed to the outside elements. The open space allowed cold air and animals to enter the crawlspace. Our install crew came and provided an easy way to get in and out of the crawlspace. The system installed will protect the crawlspace from taking on water and air, while giving it a pleasant look.
This homes crawlspace had been 'waterproofed' years back. But upon inspection water was definitely rising up and over the old vapor barrier. Mud was throughout the space and it smelled off. To have the crawlspace healthy once more we installed a full encapsulation with proper insulation, a CleanSpace vapor barrier, Sump system, and Dehumidifier.
This customer was wanting a quick solution to the water coming into the basement so they could finish it. Not only did we solve the water issue by installing our Waterguard system in just two days but we also helped get them on the right track to finishing it by putting in our Thermaldry wall system and our Thermaldry floor matting. These products help to waterproof and insulate the walls and floor, making the basement perfectly prepped for finishing.
Note: the floor matting is not pictured in the after photo since it was done at a later time.
Standing water from a small spring that ran thru this crawlspace was causing quite the problem. What vapor barrier that was in place was pushed off to the side and mud was getting everywhere. We installed our CleanSpace Encapsulation system with a Super Sump pump that will pump water from the spring out to the new piping we laid to a safe spot far from the house. The homeowner now doesn't have to worry about standing water again in his crawlspace.
One of the many things we do is crawlspace entrances. This entrance before was hard to get into and wasn't sealed properly and allowed for pests and air into the crawlspace. We use an airtight vent cover that stops air flow so the crawlspace can be dry and healthy. It will never rot or rust because it can not be damaged by moisture. The homeowner loved how nice it looked after being done and was glad that it will be a lot easier to get in and out of the crawlspace as needed.
