This homeowner in St. Peter, MN, had been dealing with ongoing crawlspace issues that were only getting worse over time. Their old vapor barrier was failing, insulation was sagging and falling down, and the floors above the crawlspace felt noticeably cold, especially during Minnesota winters. On top of that, musty odors were making their way into the home, raising concerns about air quality and overall comfort. After putting up with the problem long enough, they were ready for a permanent solution.
Our team designed a comprehensive fix starting with a CleanSpace crawlspace encapsulation system to seal off moisture and create a clean, dry environment. To manage any water intrusion, we installed a SuperSump system paired with an UltraSump battery backup, ensuring reliable performance even during power outages. Finally, we added a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control humidity and improve air quality throughout the home. The result is a healthier, more energy-efficient space with warmer floors, no musty smells, and long-term peace of mind.
After a pipe burst caused significant damage to his crawlspace, this St. Peter, MN homeowner wanted to make sure the space would not continue to cause problems. During his inspection, our System Design Specialist found that moisture had actually been an issue in the crawlspace even before the pipe burst.
Without proper ventilation or encapsulation, that moisture had been able to linger, creating a humid, mold-prone environment that could affect the air quality throughout the home. The homeowner wanted a long-term solution that would address the existing moisture concerns and help prevent them from becoming a problem again in the future.
We installed our CleanSpace Encapsulation System throughout the entire crawlspace, creating a sealed, protected environment. By encapsulating the space, we helped keep outside moisture and humidity from getting into the crawlspace and creating the conditions that can lead to mold and musty odors.
Now, this homeowner can have greater peace of mind knowing his crawlspace is protected from future moisture problems and is a cleaner, healthier part of his home.
This homeowner had water issues in his crawlspace. The dirt crawlspace was high in humidity which was causing mold and mildew. The homeowner wanted a high-quality solution that would guarantee results.
Our Design Specialist recommended our CleanSpace Encapsulation System as well as a SuperSump sump pump to create a dry, safe crawlspace.
The CleanSpace System is a heavy duty, vapor-proof, attractive liner that is permenatly held in place by drilled-in fasteners and spikes. The edges, seams and pipe penetrations are all sealed tight. The white finish allows you to easily see that your crawl space is free of mold, insects and dirt. It will also prevent pests from getting in through the crawl space and into your home.
Our SuperSump is a SUPER reliable pump that is equipped with a WaterWatch Alarm System. This pump is clean and neat, with an airtight lid that prevents anything from falling into the sump hole. The alarm will sound if the pump doesn't kick in when water gets past a level that the pump should have turned on. This will give you time to address the issue before there is flooding.
