Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

To help lift and level this customer's living room floor, we installed our SmartJack Support System in the crawl space. This system provided the necessary reinforcement to ensure the floor was level and secure. 

This crawl space needed an encapsulation due to high moisture levels. This moisture was causing humidity in the crawl space and also in the home. It also created the perfect environment for mold to start growing. We went in and removed all the mold and debris in the crawl space and then encapsulated by using CleanSpace. Also the vents were sealed and we installed an EverLast Door to ensure an airtight seal. SmartJacks had to be installed to support the foundation where the moisture had weakened it. The finishing touch was putting in a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control relative humidity and filter the air. 

In order to transform this dirty, damp crawl space to a useable place for storage a few things needed to be done. First, all the debris was cleared out. Then the crew installed EZ-Flow drainage, along with a SmartSump to pump any water out quickly. Then to create a vapor barrier the CleanSpace drainage matting and liner were installed. This protects the space from moisture and mold, but it also creates a better look for the crawl space. To ensure the crawl space stays airtight, the crew also installed an EverLast door. Now the crawl space looks amazing and the homeowner can actually use it!

The owner of this home was getting ready to put the house up for sale, but he wanted to get it in the best condition to sell. Dave Coughlin, a member of our Real Estate Response Team, went out to the house to see what could be done in order to improve the house. Dave noticed that the basement and crawl space were very moist, and the crawl space was not encapsulated and very dirty. Dave solution included encapsulating the crawl space with the CleanSpace wall system to create a mold resistant moisture barrier. Along with also sealing the crawl space vents to fully encapsulate the space. To waterproof the basement the WaterGuard drainage system was installed, along with a SuperSump and CleanSpace on the basement walls. This home is now ready to go on the market!

This home was on the market, but the seller knew there were some issues with the foundation and they wanted to get them fix before they sold the house. A member of our Real Estate Response team, Russell, worked closely with the seller to ensure the problems were properly addressed. For this home, Ken and his crew installed multiple SmartJacks to stabilize the floor beams, along with a few supplemental beams. The foundation is now stable and ready for the next owner!
