Before & After Photos

Homeowners in Schenectady, NY wanted to have their crawlspace looked at due to humidity and moisture concerns. They contacted Adirondack Basement Systems to get an estimate on what could be done to resolve this. One of our crawlspace specialists met with the homeowners and addressed their concerns suggesting the CleanSpace vapor barrier and SilverGlo insulation. CleanSpace vapor barrier is an inorganic material that prevents mold/mildew from growing and moisture from raising humidity levels. SilverGlo crawlspace insulation has tiny graphite particles embedded to reflect heat and prevent it from escaping.

During this time of year, it’s important to protect the most vulnerable parts of your home. This before and after set showcases a CleanSpace installation job in a crawl space. The crawl space is a key part of the house, helping to regulate air quality, heat, and water. If the crawl space is unprotected, water can seep in and heat can escape, causing health, structural, and financial problems. CleanSpace acts as a highly durable vapor barrier and insulator, protecting your crawl space for years to come.

Here’s a lovely before and after displaying what our CleanSpace system can do for your basement! This homeowner had a decent amount of water consistently getting into their basement and causing damage. CleanSpace is a perfect product to act as a vapor barrier to keep moisture from seeping in through the walls. CleanSpace is a 20mm thick, 7-layer polyethylene composition that is super durable and effective. Not only does it keep water at bay, but it also helps insulate the basement during the winter, proving itself useful on two fronts. CleanSpace is also compatible with a number of our other products, so if you’re looking for a little more power in your waterproofing system, you can pair CleanSpace with a sump pump, WaterGuard, and so much more!

Here’s a great look at the difference our CleanSpace vapor barrier can make in your crawl space. Before, this spot in the house was old, wet, and musty. Water was having no problem getting in so it had free reign to do whatever kind of damaged it pleased to the walls and floor. And though crawl spaces are not particularly a highly visited part of a house, they are vital to the overall health. If too much water is getting in it can cause the air quality in the rest of the house to be stale and stuffy. High moisture levels can also lead to foundational issues which can only lead to trouble. With CleanSpace—thanks to its 7-layer polyethylene composition—the crawl space will have a nice protective barrier from intruding moisture, keeping it at bay and from causing any disturbances. Pair it with a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier and some Drainage Matting and the crawl space will be even more protected from water and humidity. And, as an added bonus, CleanSpace also makes the area look pretty sleek, providing a bright boost to your dreary crawl space.
