John's Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This homeowners heating and cooling costs were consistently going up. After trying to fix it from the living spaces, they looked into their crawlspace. Here they discovered the old insulation falling in pieces, they needed crawlspace repair help. They called up John's Waterproofing and moved forward with a full crawlspace encapsulation. 

Our inspector AJ is great at bringing back photos for the homeowner and, in turn, the marketing department. This crawlspace is not unique. Most of the crawlspaces we see look like this or worse. (I'd venture to bet that most of the crawlspaces in the Pacific Northwest look like this.) 

The customer had mold in his crawl space and water. Our crew went in and removed all the debris and mold from the crawl space. We installed a TripleSafe sump pump and a SaniDry Sedona so he never has to worry about water and mold again. 

This customer called because he had a musty smell in his house that he couldn't get to go away. Upon further investigating, they discovered it was originating from beneath the house. So they gave us a call to have one of our inspectors come out and take a look at what was going on. Our inspector found sagging old fiberglass insulation with a torn vapor barrier. Water and debris had been getting in the crawlspace causing mud, dirt, and moisture damage to the posts and beams. The musty smell was moving up thru the house. We recommended doing a crawlspace encapsulation to prevent future water problems from happening. We cleaned out the crawlspace and sealed the vents, the crew then laid down our Terrablock that is a matting underneath the CleanSpace that completely seals in the crawlspace.
