Before & After Photos

This home had a small section of finished basement, with their stairway going past the entryway to their crawlspace. The crawlspace had a simple vapor barrier, but the added moisture that was still creeping in was causing mold to take over the stairway and was working into the rest of the basement. To fix up the home we added a drainage system in the crawlspace and graded this to a new TripleSafe sump pump in the basement. Our crew laid down a new 6 Mil vapor barrier and a new SaniDry dehumidifier to stop mold and mildew from occurring. 

This owner had a contractor doing some work in the crawl space. When they emerged, they let the owners know that there were signs of water damage present, specifically along the material with the fiberglass. They were referred over to John's Waterproofing to learn about options. To did a full inspection and than sat down to discuss what was happening, and we than worked on finding a repair plan that would fit their budget. We begin we had to clear the space out, removing the old vapor barrier, debris, and the fiberglass from the subfloor. Once cleared out, we spot treated for mold along the subfloor where the water had been held stagnant against the wood. We than dug a trench along the interior perimeter, within this we installed a perforated pipe within a silt sock. Groundwater will be able to accumulate within this and be direct to the lowest point. From there the water enters a TripleSafe sump pump to be pumped away from the homes foundation through a discharge line, and out of a LawnScape outlet. A new 6 Mil vapor barrier was laid out as the final step, we overlap the edges and anchor it into place to help protect the crawl space. 

This home had a mess of fiberglass insulation in the crawl space. Without realizing when this happened, the homeowners were shocked to glance under their home and seeing the mess that covered the crawl space. Knowing this wasn't healthy for the home, they called up John's Waterproofing to learn about encapsulation and how it could help their home. 

This crawl space in Rickreall, Oregon had a dirty, torn vapor barrier and moisture issues. John's Waterproofing came in and installed a CleanSpace encapsulation system, keeping the crawl space dry and clean for years to come. 

This crawlspace was wet, dirty and inhospitable, but our team was geared up for the challenge. They cleaned and encapsulated the space and made it dry and healthy to provide cleaner air for the homeowner.
