Before & After Photos

This homeowner was worried about moisture in her basement and a musty smell affecting her air quality. With pests in the crawlspace, she knew it was time for a change. Check out these dramatic before-and-after photos to see how we transformed her crawlspace into a clean, dry, and healthy space!

Before:

This crawlspace was originally covered with a thin, low-quality plastic sheet that did little to protect the home from moisture, odors, or pests. The material was easily torn, poorly sealed, and offered no long-term durability, which allowed humidity and potential air quality issues in the home.

After:

We removed the flimsy liner and replaced it with our durable CleanSpace Encapsulation System. CleanSpace is a heavy-duty, 20-mil vapor barrier that is specifically engineered to seal out moisture and create a clean, dry, and energy-efficient environment beneath the home. Unlike the old plastic, CleanSpace is installed with proper sealing, anchoring, and overlapping, creating a continuous barrier across the floor and up the walls. The result? A protected, healthier crawlspace that adds value and peace of mind for years to come.

Dakota County resident received the Five Star Rated book that lists qualified contractors serving area residents and Mark S. of Farmington, MN contacted Complete Basement Systems about his leaky crawl space.  

A free estimate was scheduled with Mark to meet with our system design specialist to look at the troubled crawl space and determine a solution for him.  

A CleanSpace liner that protects the vapor transmission and water from the concrete block in the crawl space to prevent mold and standing water was installed along with a drainage matting liner underneath the CleanSpace to channel any water seepage into a smartdrain that was installed to collect the water. 

Our customer can now utilize his concrete crawl space for added storage space in his home and have peace of mind that his items are protected.  

For years this Plymouth home suffered from cracks in the foundation, which caused water damage, air pollutants, and a headache for the homeowners.  Design Specialist Jason Galles worked with the homeowners to design a plan that was both within their budget and accomplished their goals of ensuring that their basement walls worked the way they needed to in order to support the home for years to come.

This Bloomington, MN homeowner knew something wasn’t right with her crawlspace. Cold drafts were creeping into her home, the space stayed damp year-round, and she worried about moisture leading to mold, odors, and higher energy bills. Like many crawlspaces in Minnesota, it was exposed to outside air and ground moisture, problems that worsen over time if left unaddressed.

We transformed her crawlspace with a full CleanSpace encapsulation system, sealing it off from moisture and outside air. The durable liner now creates a clean, dry, and controlled environment that helps protect the home above it. No more drafts, no more damp conditions, just long-term peace of mind. Best of all, the CleanSpace system is designed to last and is backed by a guarantee, ensuring dependable results for years to come.
