A homeowner in Laingsburg, MI, had been dealing with ongoing water issues in their crawlspace. After heavy rains, a lot of water intrusion was evident. The moisture was also causing the insulation under the floorboards to deteriorate, threatening the integrity of the wooden beams. We installed CleanSpace, a vapor barrier designed to keep the crawlspace dry by sealing out moisture. Our crew also removed the damaged insulation, protecting the home’s foundation from further water damage.
The homeowners in Walloon Lake, MI needed a solution for their damp, wet basement. The basement had dirt floors and a musty smell was coming from the basement and getting into the entire house. The musty smell could be because mold was beginning to creep into the basement because of the moisture. If this is left untreated, it could cause health problems for the homeowners in the future.
Our professional team had the perfect solution for these homeowners. Our team installed the CleanSpace encapsulation system. The CleanSpace system covers the floors and walls of your basement or crawl space with a thick, durable, plastic vapor barrier. The vapor barrier prevents moisture, outside air, and unwanted pests from getting into the basement.
Thanks to the CleanSpace encapsulation system the homeowner's basement is now clean and dry!
Brooke worried about moisture entering her basement through the cracks in the walls, causing damage to her home. She called Ayers for assistance, so we sent our crew to make a recommendation. They decided to install CleanSpace, an antimicrobial lined vapor barrier, applied to the walls and floors of the basement. CleanSpace won't tear when walked or crawled and is designed to eliminate moisture. Brooke is excited to have a dry basement!
This crawl space was giving off an awful musty, mildew odor that was coming up into the house. Usually, a bad smell is a sign of a wet crawl space and a lot of times that means mold. We were able to install our CleanSpace system to fix this unpleasant smell. CleanSpace encapsulates the entire crawl space so no outside elements can get in. It also is great because the material is super sturdy so it call still be walked on and you can even store boxes on top. Not to mention it also makes your crawl space look bright and appealing.
This customer contacted us because his crawlspace was giving off a strong mildew smell. This issue occurred because of the high water table in the area that was letting water and moisture into the space, causing it to become humid and damp.
We first installed dimpled drainage matting on the floor of the crawlspace that helped move intruding water easily across the floor to the sump pump. Next, we installed the plastic CleanSpace liner that sealed off the crawlspace from outside elements such as dirt, water, moisture and cold/hot air. This liner was extremely durable and prevented mold growth as well.
