Before & After Photos

This homeowner was about to put this home on the market but found multiple problems in the crawl space. Knowing that this was a big issue that would pause the sale of the home, they decided to give Johns a call to set up their free estimate and inspection to find them a permanent solution and make this home safe and stable for the next owners. Once our real estate response team was through with a thorough inspection, he met with the homeowners and the real estate agent and came up with a game plan. Once the homeowner and agent talked it over, they moved forward with the estimate and we begin the project. We start by removing all of the debris, such as old vapor barrier and fiberglass insulation. Next, we dig a trench around the interior perimeter of the crawl space in which we install a three inch perforated pipe into a silt sock, which will secure a safe passage for water to drain to the low point. Since there was a lot of standing water in this crawlspace our team found some old spots which we took care of with our Mold X2 cleaner that removes mold stains in 20 seconds. After, we install our TripleSafe sump pump at the lowest point so the water can be collected and pumped outside and away from the homes foundation via a discharge line. This discharge line is then connected to our LawnScape outlet which is a grated drain that allows water to pass through but keeps the debris out of the discharge line. We then installed our TerraBlock system which goes directly on the dirt floor of the crawl space creating an insulated barrier. On top of the TerraBlock we installed our CleanSpace system that is anchored to the foundation walls, up to the rim joists and sealed with our waterproof tape at the footing of the wooden posts. We also make sure to cover all of the vents to ensure no outside air enters. Lastly we install our foam insulation. This is sprayed along the foundation walls up to the rim joists and with its expanding form, ensuring a complete airtight seal. Now that this crawl space is dry, stable and healthy they can confidently put the home on the market knowing it's safe for the next family. 

This homes crawl space had been stripped bare. No vapor barrier and now insulation. But the humidity levels were causing some issues, and the owners contacted John's Waterproofing about solutions. We sent out a design specialist who did a full crawl under the home and than began discussing options. After going over the differences between the standard fiberglass insulation and our encapsulation, which uses insulation made for the crawl space, the owners were eager to do the long term solution and have their space encapsulated. We installed a full interior drain system with a sump pump. We than laid down DrainMatt, TerraBlock insulation, and CleanSpace. The Walls were insulated and air sealed with spray foam, and we completed the job by installing a SaniDry dehumidifier. Now the space is set up to be properly insulated and remain dry and healthy. 

Water kept entering this home's crawl space even after these homeowners had tried to fix the problem themselves and even hired other companies. They realized that all of their solutions were only temporary, so they finally decided it was time to find a permanent solution. They called us up and scheduled their free visit. We went out and performed a thorough inspection, then met with the homeowners to discuss the findings and go over the best options to create a dry, healthy and stable crawl space. After answering some more questions, the homeowners signed the estimate and we started the project. First, we remove all of the debris, old vapor barrier and fiberglass insulation. Next, we dug a trench around the interior perimeter of the crawl space and in it we install a 3 inch perforated pipe into a silt sock. This will secure a safe passage for water to drain to the lowest point. Then, at this low point we install our SuperSump Plus system that will collect all of the water that enters and pump it outside of the home, away from the foundation through a discharge line. We make sure all of the vents get covered and sealed to prevent outside air from entering. We install TerraBlock onto the dirt floor of the crawl space which separates the home from the earth with an insulated barrier. On top of the TerraBlock, we install our CleanSpace system, and it is also anchored into the foundation walls, up to the rim joists. This is our 20 mil-thick liner that will not only protect the crawl space but will also brighten up the space with its clean, bright white finish. Lastly to finish up this project, we install our foam insulation directly onto the foundation walls, up to the rim joists. This is sprayed and expands, filling every crack and void to ensure a complete airtight seal. Now that the crawl space is fully encapsulated, the risk of water damage has been effectively eliminated. 

Moisture can cause a lot of damage to the home, especially if left unattended for years, This home would need to be treated for mold, and than we were able to come in to waterproof so we could keep the space dry and healthy. To care for the home, we installed a full encapsulation. This system involves a full interior perimeter drain system, with a TripleSafe sump pump. We also insulate the space using methods that are made to last and fit into the crawl space. This involves TerraBlock along the dirt floor, paired with Spray Foam insulation along the foundation walls and into the rim joists. We also seal the vents shut so we can control the space. CleanSpace is wrapped throughout the crawl space, allowing us to than control the environment under the home with a SaniDry dehumidifier. With control over the moisture content, we can make it so mold and mildew will not find a way back under the home, and it can truly remain dry and healthy over the years. 

This homeowner had experienced power outages in the past due to extreme weather and wanted to find a solution to keep their entire home up and running no matter what. They reached out to John's Waterproofing about the benefits of having an all home generator and decided it was the perfect solution to their problems. The Cummins Whole Home Standby Generator is designed to be able to power your entire home in the case of an outage, while also remaining quiet and neighborhood friendly. Some features it includes is a built in remote powering and load management so that homeowners don't have to worry about being home for it to start and run the appropriate amount of power needed for your home. This is installed and connected to the homes by our in-house electricians. Our plumbing department even attaches it to the plumbing lines to be able to function every aspect of you home. After the Cummins Home Standby Generator is installed, this homeowner is prepared for any unexpected power outages.
