Before & After Photos

This homes crawlspace had been 'waterproofed' years back. But upon inspection water was definitely rising up and over the old vapor barrier. Mud was throughout the space and it smelled off. To have the crawlspace healthy once more we installed a full encapsulation with proper insulation, a CleanSpace vapor barrier, Sump system, and Dehumidifier.  

The foundation of This home was off. The flooring was warped and doorways and windows were no longer sitting as they should. To help they called John's Waterproofing who added SmartJacks for stability where needed and ensured their home would be protected from water damage in the future. 

This dust filled and musty crawlspace was causing high energy bills due to the falling insulation as well as musty air to be pulled up into the living space above. To have the home dry and healthy we did a crawlspace encapsulation. 

John's specializes in the professional waterproofing and structural repair of homes. As your leading, local experts for over 50 years, our crews possess the knowledge, professionalism, and experience that allows them to dramatically transform failing crawl spaces into beautiful, stable areas that will make you say "WOW!" This homes crawl space was in dire need of help, after suffering for many years from water intrusion. This water intrusion had caused many of the original wooden subfloor posts to rot and disintegrate, leaving interior floors without proper support. Flooring inside of this home had become bouncy, and uneven as a result of water intrusion. Additionally, subfloor insulation was destroyed, and had fallen onto the ground, creating the most perfect environment for rodent infestation and toxic growth of mold and bacteria. This is important, because 40% of interior air, comes from below. Therefore, not only was this family uncomfortable inside of their home due to uneven flooring, but their health was also being unknowingly impacted every day, as they were breathing in toxic air particles that were seeping up into their home from the infested space below. In order to return structural integrity to this home, and to protect the health of this family, our expert crews got right to work on fully encapsulating the space, and reinforcing the subfloor with SmartJacks.

John's encapsulated crawl spaces are 100% waterproofed, sealed, and insulated, to prevent water, debris, and rodents from entering, ensuring a dry, clean, and stable space beneath the home that is conducive to the health of the family. Before encapsulation, our crew clears out the entire space, wiping the slate clean for effective solution. During encapsulation, several heavy-duty, professional-grade waterproofing components are installed, including a TripleSafe Sump Pump, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. These machines operate to pump all ground water intrusion away from the home, while cleaning and filtering the air, to remove all toxins, allergens, and moisture, while also maintaining a safe relative humidity to prevent mold growth. To restore stability to the subfloor, our structural experts removed each of the rotten subfloor posts, and replaced them with SmartJacks. SmartJacks offer permanent, stable support to the subfloor, ensuring lasting and even weight-distribution, as well as perfectly level interior flooring. This family is now thriving inside of a home that is comfortable and safe, above a crawl space that has been dramatically transformed into a dry, clean, and stable area that will support the longevity of their home, as well as the health of their loved ones. 

This crawlspace got a clean out and a new vapor barrier laid down.
