Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This crawlspace in Centralia had been dirtied and unstable. With the help of the CleanSpace™ encapsulation system keeping the mold out of the crawlspace and the SmartJack™ beams holding the rest of the home from collapsing on it, this space will be safer to access and give this homeowner a peace of mind.

Moisture was entering a crawlspace in Centralia, IL, and the support blocks were failing. To solve these issues, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was first installed. This will isolate the crawlspace from the ground. It also controls water, humidity, outside air infiltration, and heat loss. The white finish will brighten the crawlspace and make it easier to see inside. Next, the SmartJack System was installed. These steel support systems can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists and girders in the crawlspace. These add strength and stability to the existing columns and piers. They are unaffected by moisture, as they will not rust, weaken, or be affected by mold. These will lift the floors above back toward their original position, reduce floor “bounce” caused by excessive joist spans, and solve the problem once and for all!
