Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Leaking Crawlspace in McMinnville, OR

This customer called because water was constantly leaking into his crawlspace and it was causing a multitude of problems. the insulation and vapor barrier were ruined due to long term moisture exposure. Causing mold growth and raising heating costs with the constant cold air flow. This customer knew he needed to get his crawlspace fixed and gave us a call. Our inspector went out and recommended doing a crawlspace encapsulation with a drainage system. So our crew installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier along with our TripleSafe sump pump. Since moisture was a huge problem we also installed our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier that not only removes any moisture but filters out allergens, mold spores, and dust mites. After our crew was done encapsulating the crawlspace the customer was so relieved. They no longer had mold or drafty floors and could have peace of mind knowing the next rainfall wasn't going to flood their crawlspace.

TripleSafe Sump Pump System

Our crew installed the TripleSafe sump pump, it is our biggest pump we have. It is a three pump system that runs the pumps by how much water is draining into it. The third pump is also a battery operated sump pump that will work in case of a power outage.

Dehumidifier

We installed the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier that runs quite and helps keep moisture out of the crawlspace. Along with removing the moisture, it filters out mold spores, musty odors, and dust mites. Leaving your home with clean air coming up from the crawlspace.

To much water

Times when the crawlspace had been so wet and a lot of standing water our crews do a dry out. We remove all the debris and dry the crawlspace out so that we can begin the encapsulation process.

Vapor Barrier

We use a 20 mil thick vapor barrier called CleanSpace. It has an antimicrobial finish that protects your home from having mold growth. It also is tear resistant to help keep unwanted critters out of your crawlspace.

Before Encapsulation

This photo was taken before we did a crawlspace encapsulation. You can see they had standing water and falling insulation. Along with hanging electrical and their heat ducts were putting out air that was being lost to the outside instead of warming the home.
