Before & After Photos

This crawlspace had a vapor barrier installed, but the space was not encapsulated. The homeowners called us after getting a barrier installed, but noticed that they were experiencing damp foundation walls, and the wooden beams of their foundation were absorbing water along the perimeter of the crawlspace. To fix this issue we can out and did a full encapsulation. 

At John's Waterproofing we take pride in offering homeowners a long-term solution to crawl space repairs. We choose products that we truly believe work to provide the best services. Our TripleSafe sump pump is a three-pump system designed to collect water in the crawl space and safely push it away from the homes foundation. We dig a 22 in. hole in the lowest point of the crawl space for the sump pump to be installed in. It has a sump liner with holes to allow water from the ground to enter and be pumped out. We seal it with a air tight lid so no water can be evaporated back into the crawl space, helping to control humidity. This helps to control the environment and prevent standing water in the crawl space. We have our service technicians provide annual service to these sump pumps and ensure everything is running smoothly and still safely pumping water out. They do a full inspection and clean out the TripleSafe sump pump so it is ready for another season of keeping your crawl space dry. 

This customer had water in their crawlspace with no vapor barrier in place. We put a 6 mil black plastic vapor barrier down. Along with a sump pump with new piping so that she wouldn't have to worry about water in the crawlspace. 

This homeowner saw us doing work on his neighbors home and knew his crawl space had water also. When our design specialist inspected his crawl space he found puddles of water in several places. Our crew did a crawl space encapsulation system. We installed drainage and sump pump and with our twenty mils thick vapor barrier. The homeowner was so pleased with how well his crawlspace looked and there was no more water issue. We also took out the old insulation and replaced it with our spray foam insulation. It gives better coverage and will keep his house better insulated that fiberglass insulation. 

This homes crawl space had a good slope, and the water would pool in the lower areas, causing damp odors. To address this issue the homeowner called up John's Waterproofing to get a quote to replace the 6 Mil. We ended up installing a pipe system to ensure water was directed to the lowest point where a new TripleSafe sump pump is installed and we installed a new 6 Mil vapor barrier, overlapping edges and running it up the walls to help it last a few years until the barrier will need to be replaced or upgraded again.
