Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

The crawl space of Don M.’s Rochester, IL home was damp. He couldn’t use it for storage without fear of water damage so he called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended a crawl space encapsulation system.

As part of that system, Woods secured CleanSpace along the floors and part of the walls in the crawl space. CleanSpace is a thick and durable plastic moisture barrier that prevents ground water from entering the crawl space, making it safe for storage.

A crawlspace, in Rochester, IL, was leaking and dealing with high humidity. This needed to be addressed, so the homeowner decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, CleanSpace™ was used to encapsulate the crawlspace. This highly durable liner will keep the humidity, and other outside elements, out of the crawlspace. With this system in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their crawlspace is dry and in great shape! 

Don M. was having trouble keeping his Rochester, IL home comfortable. He had drafts coming into his home from the crawlspace. His energy bills were high from needing to run his air conditioning and heating much longer to get less change in the temperature of his home so he called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended insulating and encapsulating his crawl space.

Woods installed SilverGlo over the foundation walls and rim joists in the crawl space. SilverGlo is a graphite-infused rigid foam insulation that has a reflective surface to create a radiant barrier that reflects heat back into the crawl space. SilverGlo is waterproof and mold-resistant so it also prevents moisture from entering into the crawl space through the foundation walls. It seals drafts out and heated and cooled air in the crawl space.

A crawlspace was not properly insulated in Rochester, IL, and moisture was seeping into it, creating more problems. To solve these issues, SilverGlo Insulation Panels were first installed. This features a radiant barrier infused with graphite, so the heat is reflected into the crawlspace, saving energy. Next, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This will completely isolate the crawlspace from the earth, dramatically reducing the humidity level. This will also eliminate mold growth and make the whole house healthier. The white finished side will brighten the crawlspace and allow one to see inside easily. These systems will keep this crawlspace dry and healthy for years to come!
