Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner hadn't thought much about their crawlspace. However when their neighbors showed off their newly encapsulated crawlspace, these homeowners were anxious to have their crawlspace addressed. 

Creaking floors and sagging had been a headache for this homeowner for some time. She wasn't sure how to fix it or why it was happening. She gave us a call for a free inspection and what we found was water in her crawlspace. The water had caused some of her posts to rot and were deteriorating. Our crew went in and removed the rotting posts and installed our SmartJack posts. They are made of stainless steel so it cannot be rusted, rotted, and are adjustable. The homeowner saw an immediate difference once the floor was level. 

Water problems in the crawlspace can lead to many issues, including water stains on the old vapor barrier, moldy and drooping fiberglass insulation, and a build up of calcium deposits. To combat these issues, this homeowner decided to have a full encapsulation, turning their crawlspace into a dry and healthy space! 

This crawlspace was damp and muddy. The dried mud was caked over the old vapor barrier and water was seeping through the foundation walls. This water content had caused the old fiberglass insulation to droop, leading to mold spores and a reduced insulation value. To address all of the spaces repair needs, we installed a full encapsulation system. 

This customer was referred to us by a local company because when their tech went to make repairs under the home it was so damp and a strong musty smell. Our crews went in and cleaned out the crawlspace and cleaned the mold. We installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier that is a 20 mil thick woven fiber plastic. We use this to completely seal the crawlspace to keep unwanted pests, moisture, and other alignments out. The customer was so happy to see how clean it was and that she won’t have to worry about mold in the crawlspace again.
