This homeowner noticed a nasty odor coming from the crawlspace. They glanced through the exterior entrance and found the issue. After speaking to some neighbors they opted to call up John's Waterproofing for a full encapsulation.
Fiberglass insulation holds onto water moisture and becomes an ideal place for mold spores to grow when it is left open to the elements. To insulate a crawlspace we recommend our encapsulation. This has Terrablock laid over the dirt floor, and either SilverGlo or Spray Foam along the foundation walls.
This home had old fiberglass insulation in the crawlspace, but high humidity had caused it to sag and hold onto water. As the years passed this became mold spores, and an odd odor emerged in the living spaces above. To clean up their crawlspace, clear out the smell, and make their home dry and healthy they called up John's Waterproofing for a encapsulation.
In the midst of a large mold remediation project, this homeowner knew they wanted to prevent any further mold issues from occurring. At the recommendation of their mold remediator, they called up John's Waterproofing for a full encapsulation.
This home had been replacing fiberglass insulation and a 6 mil vapor barrier every few years since they had bought their home. Sick of having to do this, the homeowners were ready for a solution that can truly last. After researching online, they reached out to John's Waterproofing. To have the home issues solved, we installed a full crawlspace encapsulation. To begin we installed a drainage system with a TripleSafe Sump pump to safely discharge the gathered water. Following this, we installed the correct insulation for this space; TerraBlock over the dirt floor and Spray Foam along the foundation walls. We also installed CleanSpace, a 20 Mil woven vapor barrier which is full sealed into place. The vents were fully sealed and a SaniDry dehumidifier was installed.
