Before & After Photos

Mary noticed moisture in the crawl space of her 1950's home and contacted Rainy Day Basement Systems for a free inspection and estimate. Jean-Paul, System Design Specialist, noted signs of mold and moisture, and there was no proper vapor barrier, which was contributing to the moisture issues. Working with Mary, Jean-Paul came up with a scope of work that set out to accomplish controlling moisture, closing the crawl space with encapsulation, protecting the home from mold and intrusion, and providing energy efficiency. Tyler's crew installed the job, carefully removing debris, cleaning the crawl space, and installing a thick, 20 mil vapor barrier over the walls and floor. The crew also installed a SmartDrain and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. With the crawl space now closed, humidity under control, and moisture no longer an issue, Mary said, "The crawl space looks great!"

Mary's 1950s home was like many of its era, with a vented crawl space that lacked protection. This meant that moisture from the ground and air could easily seep into the crawl space, creating a breeding ground for mold and mildew. Looking for a permanent solution, she reached out to Rainy Day Basement Systems.

System Design Specialist, Jean-Paul, examined her crawl space and quickly identified the problem. He explained that the lack of a proper vapor barrier and the open vents were allowing moisture to enter the crawl space and causing problems within the home. He recommended encapsulation, a process that involves sealing the crawl space with a thick vapor barrier and closing any vents or openings.

Rainy Day cleaned up the crawl space, installed the vapor barrier, and sealed all openings. Within a short time, Mary's crawl space was dry, mold-free, and energy-efficient. She was happy with the results, saying, "The crawl space looks great, and the crew was professional, helpful, and thorough."

Mary's story is a reminder that homeowners don't have to suffer from crawl space problems. With the right solution, crawl spaces can be transformed into dry, healthy, and energy-efficient spaces.

For over a year, Mary N. in Burlington had been dealing with moisture in her crawl space, which showed signs of mold along the wood beams, damp ground, and the remnants of a shredded vapor barrier. She wanted to fix it once and for all. Our inspector, Jean-Paul, visited the home to provide a free inspection and estimate. After a thorough examination, he designed a system to clean and protect the space long-term. Tyler's crew installed the CleanSpace Encapsulation System, sealing the space with a thick, permanent vapor barrier built to last, with a 25-year workmanship guarantee. To keep the air clean and humidity low, they also installed a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier, which automatically filters the air and maintains low humidity to prevent mold growth. Since over 60% of the air in a home comes from the crawl space, having a clean, mold-free crawl space is essential to having clean air and a healthy living environment. Now the home is safe and protected for good.

Rain in Bellingham, WA, turned Gurjeet's crawl space into a waterlogged mess. Despite having a sump pump, the persistent issues led him to seek help from Rainy Day. Our solution transformed his crawl space into a dry oasis.

Here's how we achieved it:

• CleanSpace Encapsulation System: Acting as a moisture barrier superhero, it sealed out moisture effectively, bidding farewell to puddles forever.
• Drainage System: Implemented as a vigilant guard along the inside crawl space perimeter, it shields against groundwater seepage, ensuring a dry environment.
• TripleSafe Sump Pump System: Providing maximum flood protection, this system stands resilient with three pumps in one basket, ready to combat any water intrusion.
• SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier: This unit eradicated musty odors, replacing them with fresh, clean air, enhancing the overall air quality.

Thanks to these interventions, Gurjeet's crawl space is now worry-free and contributes to a healthier home environment long-term.

In the "before" image, the crawl space beneath Michael's shop is dimly lit and in a state of disrepair. It lacked proper insulation, allowing external temperature fluctuations to affect the area. The space was a breeding ground for rodents. In the "after" image, the crawl space is transformed. The CleanSpace liner creates a clean, bright, and well-organized environment. The Foamax insulated panels line the walls, providing efficient insulation. The CleanSpace liner now encapsulates the crawl space, preventing rodents and external elements from intruding. Foamax insulated panels line the walls, enhancing temperature regulation and energy efficiency. The spray foam insulation forms a thermal barrier, isolating the crawl space from external temperature fluctuations. All vents are sealed to maintain a controlled environment. This transformation ensures long-lasting comfort and energy efficiency to enjoy year-round.
