Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawlspace Encapsulation in Edwardsville, Illinois

This Edwardsville homeowner called Woods because his family was dealing with extremely cold floors in the winter. What the homeowner wasn't aware of was that the likely cause of the freezing floors was in the crawlspace below the home. When a crawlspace goes untreated it can be exposed to open air which rises throughout the home. So, in the Winter time the cold air can rise through the crawlspace and past the floors above, leaving them cold. Woods provides their customers with the best products and systems to treat their crawlspace to a full encapsulation. In this crawlspace we installed our water barrier liner, dehumidifier, and sump pump system. These systems will dry out the crawlspace and help to seal it from the open air. Now this Edwardsville family can enjoy their home without worries of cold floors in the winter. To learn more about crawlspace encapsulation or if you want to schedule a free estimate: CLICK HERE

Before Installation

Although water had not shown itself in the space, in order to fully encapsulate it, waterproofing methods like the installation of the sump pump and barrier liner are necessary. Creating a dry and healthy crawlspace that is sealed from the outside air.

Openings to Crawlspace

Openings to your crawlspace, like this one, should be sealed. Most standard construction includes wood doors to block access to the crawlspace, which are susceptible to the elements and less durable. Woods provides plastic based covers that are more durable and create a tighter seal around the crawlspace.

Water Barrier Liner

Our water barrier liner is installed along the floor of the crawlspace. It not only creates a clean and organized storage space out of a once unusable dirt covered floor, but it also protects from leaks or water getting in to the crawlspace.

Dehumidifier System

The dehumidifier system runs continuously to remove moisture from the air of the crawlspace. This helps sealing it off from the outside air to keep the space protected.

Sump Pump

Our sump pump system will continuously remove water and leaks collected from underneath the barrier liner. Helping to eliminate water and moisture from the entire crawlspace.
