Crawl spaces are a vital piece of the house when it comes to support and air quality. If your crawl space is in rough shape, then chances are other parts of the home are feeling the effects of that. So what’s something that’s a common issue in crawl spaces? Let’s look at moisture, for example.
This homeowner had a crawl space that hadn’t been given much love or attention in the past, so water had free reign over the area—and where there’s water, there’s trouble. What this set of before and after photos displays is the CleanSpace portion of our installation job. The purpose of CleanSpace is to provide a vapor barrier for the crawl space. It not only reduces humidity and moisture in the crawl space, but also helps seal out cold drafts in the winter; a highly useful 1-2 punch. CleanSpace is super durable, made of a 20mm thick, 7-layer polyethylene composition, providing a guaranteed 25 year lifespan, which gives you years of peace of mind at the same time. CleanSpace is also compatible with any other product, so it is often paired with other systems to give the area a more well-rounded protection against moisture and other issues. And as evident by the photos, it also provides a nicer look to the crawl space; an added bonus with an already effective product.
This homeowner had water coming into the basement, which was also seeping through walls. Our solution was to install a SumpPump to keep excess water out.
Our sump pumps are steps ahead of the competition, providing reliable, effective circulation of water out of your home. Most old pumps are just a basic, uncovered apparatus that are prone to failure and can’t handle high levels of water, meaning one bad rainstorm and your basement is soaked. Our TripleSafe sump system, showcased in these pictures, has three pumps that automatically switch based on the amount of water coming in. In addition to this, the TripleSafe also has a built-in backup battery that keeps the system running even during a power outage, making the TripleSafe a powerful, trustworthy product to take your basement’s waterproofing to the next level.
BrightWall has the ability to transform the look and health of a basement. With its clean, sleek design and effective insulation and moisture prevention capabilities, BrightWall is a great choice for all-around improvement. A product most effective when paired with our other waterproofing products, BrightWall is a fantastic addition to any basement. And if you’re planning on finishing your basement, it’s the perfect option for getting the process started, especially since any other system can be installed over the top of it.
A homeowner contacted us in concerns over the structural integrity of her crawlspace as well as dampness down there. We set her up with a free estimate with one of our crawlspace experts so that she could be provided with the perfect solution for her needs. During installation we used many of our patented products such as SmartJack supports, CleanSpace vapor barrier, and the SaniDry Sedona. SmartJacks not only provide supplemental support to sagging floor joists, but also help to lift them back to their original position over time. CleanSpace provides a barrier to the moisture that comes through the dirt floor and foundation walls, also made of organic material to prevent mold/mildew growth. The Sedona provides both humidity control and air filtration to make sure the air you breathe through your home is clean and dry.
