Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This Decatur, IL business owner was getting tired of his old, dirt crawlspace and how it was easily accessible for unwanted water and animals to enter. He contacted Woods Basement Systems for his free estimate and found that a CleanSpace encapsulation system is exactly what he needs. This 20-mil-thick material that covers the dirt crawlspace creates a barrier from the outside environment and reduces humidity levels. With the addition of our SmartSump sump pump and SaniDry CX dehumidifier the crawlspace is guaranteed to stay dry.

This Decatur business now has a clean, brand-new looking crawlspace that they can use as they please.

A crawlspace in Decatur, Illinois, had some humidity seepage issues and needed sealing to address it. Woods came out and installed the CleanSpace System. This system consists of a highly durable sheet of material that is placed on the ground and walls of the crawlspace. It effectively creates a barrier between the crawlspace and the earth, protecting it from insects, rot, and humidity. With this installation in place, the crawlspace will stay sealed and protected for decades to come.

The crawl space of Jason W.’s Decatur, IL home was very wet. It leaked every time there was rainy weather and the flimsy plastic liner he had along the dirt floors did little to nothing to prevent water from getting in and causing damage. The space was unusable so he called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended a crawl space encapsulation system.

Woods installed CleanSpace along the foundation walls and floors as part of that system. Unlike other plastic liners that are usually 6 mil thick that bunch and tear, CleanSpace is a 20 mil thick plastic liner that is reinforced with polyester cord and secured in place. It forms a moisture barrier over the walls and floors to prevent water from entering the space, instead directing it down to the perimeter drainage system. It is treated with an anti-microbial finish so it won’t support mold or mildew growth on or under the liner.

Homeowners in Decatur, IL were dealing with a wet and humid crawl space, so they decided to give Woods Basement Systems a call. To help keep moisture out and seal the crawl space, a CleanSpace™ liner was used and is twice the strength of other vapor barriers. The SmartSUMP™ Sump Pump was then installed to keep the area dry. Lastly, the SaniDry™ was put in to ensure the air would not get humid. With these systems in place, the homeowners can rest easy knowing their crawlspace is clean and sealed for years to come!

This Decatur, Illinois crawl space was suffering from mold and water seepage. Woods Basement Systems replaced the existing clogged sump pumps with the SmartPipe drainage system and sealed the crawlspace with a vapor barrier called CleanSpace.
