Keeping the crawl space healthy is an important part in keeping your home healthy. Over time, water tries to seep through and can cause mold growth and structural damage to the home. In order to help prevent that, John's Waterproofing recommends getting your crawl space encapsulated. Encapsulation is the process of sealing the home off from the earth and regulating the environment so it's less exposed to mold, wood rot, and high humidity. The process of encapsulating involves installing a drainage system using a perforated pipe and a TripleSafe sump pump to control the passage of water. Then, TerraBlock insulation foam and a CleanSpace vapor barrier get installed to seal the space off and prevent anything from getting in that shouldn't. A SaniDry dehumidifier helps pull moisture out and promote cleaner air quality. Lastly, Spray Foam air seals and insulates the space. Once the process is completely installed the home can be protected against moisture damage and remain dry year round.
This home had a stirp of crawl space next to their finished basement. They had the basement waterproofed and finished a few years back but had opted out of tackling the crawl space. However, this space was getting some standing water in the lower points and the adjoining wall was much colder, leading the homeowners to wonder how much more they were spending trying to keep the basement a comfortable temperature. The decided to have John's come out and encapsulate it.
