Before & After Photos

We received a call from these Fife Lake, MI customers because the joists in their cabin crawl space were rotting. When the cabin was raised years ago, the crawl space foundation was redone, and the joists hadn’t seen any repairs since. As you can see in the before pictures, time hadn’t been kind to the wood. The after photo shows where the crew reinforced the failing joists with galvanized steel beams. After the joists were fully supported, the crew installed our SmartJack system. The SmartJacks work just like normal jacks and were able to lift the sagging floor. Rotting joists won’t trouble this crawl space again. 

Pat and Arden are retiring in their forever home but they have recently noticed it is hard to breathe the air in the home and they are worried it is mold. Upon inspection, not only did we have the perfect solution to their mold problem, but we found that their floors were not properly supported. To support the floors, we installed SmartJacks which will keep them level. To address the other issue, we started with CleanSpace Crawl Space Vapor Barrier which is a thick and durable waterproof liner. It prevents humidity, water vapor, and pests from entering the space. We also installed the SaniDry Sedona which dries out the space by blowing dry air throughout. 

Gloria called Ayers for remedies to keep her basement and belongings dry! After a free inspection was conducted our professionals determined she could use our WaterGuard System and IceGuard. The WaterGuard system will collect dirt or water seeping in through her basement walls and direct it to the sump system it is hooked to. Then it is concealed with concrete. Lastly we added IceGuard to prevent her exterior discharge lines from freezing or clogging with its antifreeze fitting that has slotted openings which eject water away from the foundation.

Gloria was satisfied with these waterproofing installations that ensure her home stays dry!

This crawl space was seeing some moisture periodically so the homeowner was hoping to get the space encapsulated in order to protect against mold, rot, and variety of other potential problems down the road. We were able to help with just that, installing our CleanSpace vapor barrier throughout. This 20mil material is incredibly strong and difficult to tear, making it incredibly reliable. We also installed SilverGlo insulation the wall to increase energy efficiency spray foam in the rim joists to eliminate common entry points for moisture and humid air. Finally, we covered the vents with air tight vent covers eliminating a final access point for moisture and humidity. This crawl space should now be warmer, dryer, brighter, and safter in the years to come. 

Another day, another sinking floor from a too wet crawl space. JoAnne called us to get her crawl space dry and keep it that way, as well as to lift her sinking floors. 

After the new discharge line, LawnScape outlet and IceGuard system were in place, we installed a few SmartJack crawl space stabilizers to add support to the foundation and lift the sinking floors. Then we used the CleanSpace vapor barrier system with drainage matting to protect the crawl space (and the floors above) from natural moisture in the air.
