When you combine Cleanspace and Spray foam insulation you will get a dry energy efficient crawlspace and a comfortable;e home for years to come!
This crawl space was covered with mud and water. The insulation was hanging down and the vapor barrier was torn in many areas. We waterproofed the crawl space by installing Cleanspace, a Triplesafe sump pump, and a Sanidry Sedona Dehumidifier. We then insulated the crawlspace by installing Terrablock and spray foam insulation. Keeping this crawl space dry and healthy for years to come.
This homes crawlspace had mud encrusted 6 Mil vapor barrier, falling fiberglass insulation, and mold growing along the floor boards. To get this space dry and healthy we pulled out this debris, applied Mold X2, and installed a full encapsulation system.
This home had a nasty old sump pump that would clog and overflow. To get their crawl space cared for and ready for anything, John's Waterproofing was called in. We did a full encapsulation which includes installing a TripleSafe Sump Pump that is built to withstand the wet weather.
Keeping your crawl space dry is essential in maintaining a healthy home. As water seeps in, it will bring in outside dirt and debris that can rip the vapor barrier that's meant to protect against water damage. Once that water evaporates, it gets into the air and increases the humidity levels. Humidity is the amount of water in the air and as it increases it creates an environment for mold to grow, wood to rot, and eventual structural damage to occur. This cycle is what makes keeping water out of the crawl space so important so it doesn't cause damage to your home and strange smells in the living spaces. At John's Waterproofing, we recommend getting your crawl space fully encapsulated to prevent unwanted water from being able to seep through. An encapsulation involves clearing out the falling insulation and damaged vapor barrier. Then, we install a drainage system, TerraBlock insulation, and a CleanSpace vapor barrier. Once these are all installed, homeowners experience a noticeable difference in air quality, energy efficiency, and overall comfortability. By encapsulating the crawl space, there is control over the environment in the crawl space and protection to your home's overall health.
