Before & After Photos

Whenever it rained, water from the nearby slope would send water directly into this homeowner's crawl spaces. Overtime, this created a bad moisture/humidity problem. The effects could be seen on the top side of their home, most noticeably the buckling floors. In order to take care of this moisture problem and prevent further damage, our crew came in to seal off the crawl space and install our encapsulation system. This system includes multiple different ways to fight moisture, like the CleanSpace Barrier you can see in the photos. Combine this durable vapor barrier with our crawl space dehumidifer, sump pump system, and an airtight crawl space door, and the perfect solution is formed. This crawl space is now safe from runoff, water intrusion, and high humidity levels!

In order to combat the moisture issues they were facing, these homeowners originally had someone come in and install a standard vapor barrier. Over the years, the same problems persisted, and if you look at the before image, it isn't hard to tell why. We found the barrier withered, torn, and exposed. It was time for an upgrade! That is where our CleanSpace Liner comes in. This liner is much more durable and resistant than your average vapor barrier. Rather than just being placed on the ground, the CleanSpace Liner is fastened to each part of the crawl space, including the walls and supports. It also works together as part of a complete system with some of our other crawl space products, including the dehumidifier you can see in the after image. These combined create the encapsulation system, which is made to fight moisture from all forms and directions - intrusion, standing, and humidity.

There's a pretty massive difference between these two vapor barriers, and it isn't just visually. The thin material the previous liner was made of obviously wasn't enough to withstand the conditions of this crawl space, resulting in the torn, dirty mess you see in the first photo. In the second photo, is the CleanSpace Liner we replaced it with. It is a much thicker, much more durable 12mil liner. Rips and tears will be much harder to come by in this liner. You'll also notice that it isn't just tossed onto the ground, but secured to both the ground and walls of the crawl space, creating an actual barrier against each entry point for intruding moisture. And of course, it is just nicer to look at!

Before and After we installed our waterproofing system in a local home! This home had some moisture struggles that we were able to alleviate with our waterproofing system. 

This conventional foundation home was off the ground around 2 feet. The homeowner had been struggling with moisture problems in the crawlspace for years. Insulation was falling and creating more problems. There was also some mold present.

Henry Bennett performed the inspection and found these were all problems we could solve with our waterproofing system! We first treated the mold with our powerful mold spray. Then we sealed off all the vents to protect the crawlspace from outside, humid air. We finished the crawlspace encapsulation by sealing it with our CleanSpace Liner, adding a sump pump, and installing a dehumidifier. Now this home is clean, protected, and ready to last years to come!
