Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A crawlspace in Xenia, Illinois needed sealed and extra support for the floor beams. To address these issues, Woods first installed the CleanSpace Encapsulation System. This is a tarp made from a highly durable material that seals the bottom of the home from insects and moisture. They also installed the SmartJack System. This system consists of custom-cut steel beams that are set in galvanized fill. This process effectively restores the home's stability and can be tightened over time. Thanks to these installs, this crawlspace will remain sealed and supported for many years to come. 

Alfred E. wanted to make sure his crawl space in his home's basement was not collecting any water. He knew that water could cause mold growth, and he did not want to take the risk. He called Woods Basement Systems for assistance.

Design specialist Gregory B. assessed the situation and decided that installing a CleanSpace Encapsulation System was the best solution. Foreman Joshua B. then traveled to the home to get the job started. The CleanSpace Encapsulation System, pictured above, is a heavy duty liner that is installed on the floor and up the walls of the crawl space. It acts as a vapor barrier and completely seals the crawl space from the earth.

Alfred E. no longer has to worry about any water getting in his home's crawl space. He now has a dry and waterproof crawl space.

A crawlspace in Mason, IL, was humid and needed to be addressed before concerns of mold emerged. This lead to the homeowner deciding to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, CleanSpace™ was used to encapsulate the crawlspace. This highly durable liner will not only make the crawlspace look nicer, but it will also keep outside elements, like humidity, out of the crawlspace. Next, a Sedona™ dehumidifier was used to lower the humidity. With these systems in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their crawlspace will remain nice and dry for years to come!

A crawlspace in Mason, Il was not insulated properly, and moisture was seeping into it and creating a damp environment. To solve these issues, SilverGlo Insulation was 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. Thanks to these systems, this crawlspace will remain warm and dry for years to come!

This home in Albers, IL. had a section of the home that sat over a basement and a section of the home that sat over a crawlspace. Both of these areas can present unique challenges for waterproofing a home. 

The crawlspace had a dirt floor that allowed water vapor to rise up into the underside of the home where it could weaken the wooden floor joists and feed mold throughout the home. The basement walls had cracks that allowed water to leak in through the wall where it could collect on the floor and cause damage or evaporate into the air and make the basement feel damp and uncomfortable. 

To fix this, foreman Jose L. started by encapsulating the crawlspace with CleanSpace™ liner. CleanSpace™ is a super durable and mold resistant waterproofing liner that covers the floor and most of the walls of the crawlspace to prevent any water or water vapor from entering the area. With CleanSpace™ installed, the crawlspace would be kept dry and protected from potential water leaks that come from below ground.
