Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Golconda, IL resident Richard C. was concerned about moisture in his crawl space. Luckily, System Design Specialist Sam W. knew exactly how to help! Underneath supervision from Kevin G., Foreman Michael R. and his crew installed a CleanSpace Encapsulation System. This durable system works to keep the crawl space drier, prevent mold and mildew growth, and keep water moisture from permeating the ground. Now, Richard can rest assured that his crawl space is now clean and dry!

When support pillars in the crawl space settle and can no longer maintain supporting the subfloor and flooring, interior drywall cracks and uneven floors could become a problem.  Our SmartJack® support jacks are the right answer to this problem.  Set on a properly installed footing block, these galvanized adjustable posts will stand the test of time.

A crawlspace wall was bowing in and cracking in Effingham, IL, causing concern. To fix this, GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These are galvanized steel earth anchors embedded into the soil out and away from the wall. Once installed, these will hold the walls in their current position and can be tightened to allow for improvement and straightening of the wall over time.  This is the best solution to straighten the wall over time, as it can fix severe problems and stabilize it for good!

The room addition was built attached to a basement and had only one access cut through the basement wall.  It was built without vents but nothing else was done within the closed space.  We installed the CleanSpace vapor barrier and sealed up the inside of the crawl space.  The air inside the space is now dry and the vapor barrier on the ground will stop the damp air from the ground from 'leaking' up into the home. There will be less humidity and the environment won't be a haven for spiders, critters, and mold as it was previously.

This dirty, moldy crawlspace was fitted with a CleanSpace liner and a SaniDry Dehumidifier. Two of these components of the CrawlSpace Encapsulation System work together to help with moisture production and control mold growth.
