Before & After Photos

After noticing a strong musty smell coming from their basement and crawl space, this East Lansing, MI homeowners began to be concerned. Their concern turned into disgust when they found out that turning the air or heat on would send the smell up through the home. Musty smells usually come from a combination of humidity and moisture entering the crawl space. The dirt floor and block walls in the before picture are notorious for letting in moisture and outside air, but neither can penetrate the CleanSpace System. The CleanSpace system is a moisture barrier that can cover just about anything, note how it drapes both the walls and floor in the after photo. With the barrier present in this crawl space, musty smells won’t be. 

This house had just recently been put up for sale, but shortly after, the owners discovered water in their two crawl spaces. While one crawl space had block walls, the other was protected by insulation. As the water came in, it caused stains to the block walls and puddled on the floor of the other. The before photo shows where the water leaked on the floor. Both crawl spaces were solved using the CleanSpace system, shown in the after photo. CleanSpace is a vapor barrier that is impenetrable by moisture. Neither the current seller nor the future buyer will have any moisture issues to worry about in either crawl space. 

This East Lansing home was having some water ossues in the basement so we installed a smart pump to keep the area dry. The homeowners also wanted to use their crawl space as extra storage. We installled drainage matting in the crawl space to allow for water to flow under the liner and so it would be directed towards the sump pump to be discharged out of the house. Over the matting, we installed the CleanSpace Liner. The liner seals off the crawl space and makes it perfect for storing things in there. CleanSpace keeps out moisture, bugs, critters, and mold so that all your stuff will be safe and the crawl space is clean!

Deshauna was having foundational work done with Ayers. Our foreman Evan was able to do a full assessment of the home and treated all areas, not just the obvious. When Ayers works on a crawl space we plan on making sure its as safe as our foundations. That means lining the interior with an antimicrobial surface protector called CleanSpace. Ayers uses CleanSpace in all its crawl spaces to ensure our customers don't have repeat visits from contractors.

Deshauna moved into a new home and realized her crawl space was not in the best shape. Not to mention it was damp and humid. She decided to call Ayers to find a solution. After an appointment with an Ayers specialist, she decided to install CleanSpace. CleanSpace utilizes a heavy, durable plastic liner that lines the entirety of the crawlspace. This system creates a vapor barrier that stops moisture from entering the crawlspace. Once installed, Deshauna's crawl space not only looks better, but it will also function better!
