Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

When water frequently floods a crawlspace, there are a few signs to look for. One way is to look on the wooden posts, water lines will appear where water regularly floods to. If these exist, then water is flooding pretty regularly and these posts will begin to rot and mold over time. If addressed early enough, we can stop issues from occurring, if not... the problem will worsen and become a much more costly project. This homeowner had us check out their crawlspace and were eager to make their crawlspace healthy before things got worse. To provide a solution, we did a crawlspace encapsulation. 

This homeowner checked under their home and found the crawlspace a mess. They knew an odd odor was in their home, and after looking online, learned that the crawlspace could be the reason why. They wanted their air and home to be dry and healthy, so they decided it was time to get a crawlspace encapsulation. 

This home had a water issue in the crawlspace. The water moisture led to falling fiberglass, pools of water on the old vapor barrier, and a general unhealthy space. To address this with a solution, we installed a full encapsulation. 

Our home owners knew they had some water under their house when they called our office, but they had no idea the extent of their water issue. When our inspector Bob went through his inspection and showed them the photos they were shocked to see close to 4" of water hiding under the black visqueen. The thin black plastic had floated on top effectively hiding the severity of the problem. 

We removed all the old fallen insulation and installed cleanspace with spray foam insulation, this homeowner will never have to worry about having a wet mess like that ever again!
