Kelly Blackburn inspected the home to determine the cause of a musty odor and cold floors. During the visit, he immediately noticed that the crawlspace was not encapsulated and thus prone to odors and poor temperature control. He designed the required crawlspace encapsulation scope of work and foreman Austin Stone installed the work. The customer was very pleased and wrote a kind review.
Will Meszar and Ken Kahlbaugh extended a discharge line for a waterproofing system to ensure the water was transported to an appropriate location. The line was run to the street and the curb was cut to allow the water to run onto the gutter.
With our TrenchDrain System, we were able to prevent water from flowing into the basement from the basement entryway door.
The homeowner reported having a bad odor coming up to the first floor via the crawlspace as well as cold floors. After scheduling a free estimate we sent out an informative book titled “Crawlspace Science” for free to review in the few days between scheduling and the actual appointment. This gave the client a good understanding of the situation and allowed him to form specific questions for our inspector.
After arriving, the client had an idea of what he wanted and our inspector, Mr. Brian McWhirter, showed how Keystone Basement Systems could help accomplish this goal.
The client had a crawlspace which was not encapsulated. This is a very big problem and can lead to a host of negative outcomes. The plan was a proper crawlspace encapsulation.
The project was large. A typical crawlspace encapsulation takes one day, but this one took 3 to complete. That said, once it was complete, it was marvelous. Not only does it look clean, but it is well insulate and protects against mold, moisture, water and odor.
