This homeowner knew their vapor barrier was getting pushed around by water. They tried to stop this by placing rocks over the vapor barrier, thinking the vapor barrier would stop falling out of place. However this just allowed the water to more easily pool on-top of the barrier. To find a solution to the crawlspace issues, they chose to have John's do a full encapsulation.
This Crawlspace was full of water and mud when our crew started. But after our crew worked hard for hours in what most people would consider harsh conditions, drying out the crawlspace, cleaning it, encapsulating, installing sump pumps and a dehumidifier, hanging back up fallen ducts and insulation and then cleaning up again, they were finally able to make this Clackamas Crawlspace clean and dry!
Seasonal Rains have left this crawlspace a mess. The old fiberglass insulation was water logged and in pieces. The old vapor barrier was pulled up in places and pushed around.
This crawlspace had dirt encased throughout and cobwebs. To address this we cleaned up the space and did a full crawlspace encapsulation.
