Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Moisture was seeping into a crawlspace in Bridgeport, IL, creating a damp and musty environment. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This will completely isolate the crawlspace from the earth and reduce the humidity level. Any mold growth will also be eliminated, making the whole house healthier. The white color will also brighten the crawlspace and make it easier to see inside it. This crawlspace will now stay dry all the time!

This homeowner's crawlspace was dirty, poorly insulated, and vulnerable to outside air. This can cause mold to grow, critters to find their way in, difficulty to regulate temperature in the entire house. This crawlspace was also unsupported, and at risk of failing if not properly fixed. To remedy these issues, the CleanSpace encapsulation system was installed, which insulates, cleans, and locks moisture out of the crawlspace. This keeps bugs, water, and mold from entering the underground area. Additionally, the PowerBrace system was installed to permanently stabilize the crawlspace and prevent any inward movement, closing cracks and straightening the walls to their original position.

Water kept getting into Janice E.’s crawl space of her Philo, IL home. It leaked into the crawlspace through the cement block foundation walls and made her crawl space completely unusable so she called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended encapsulating her crawl space.

CleanSpace was installed as part of the encapsulation system. It is a durable, thick plastic moisture barrier that is installed over the foundation walls and gravel floors of the crawl space. It prevents moisture from entering the crawlspace, instead directing it down to the perimeter drainage system. It contains an additive called UltraFresh that makes it mold resistant. It’s bright white so, besides giving the crawl space a much cleaner appearance, it maximizes available light.
