Before & After Photos

When your crawl space is dark, humid and filled with debris it can attract pests and rodents. It can also cause poor air quality and raise energy bills due to poor insulation. These homeowners were wanting to create a healthy home environment, so they reached to John's Waterproofing to get a free estimate and inspection. One of our knowledgeable system design specialists then met with the homeowners after the inspection to go over the best options for this space. They decided encapsulation was the best choice for this space. We begin by removing all the debris and insulation in the space. Since there was not a lot of water entering the space, we install our SmartDrain system. This will alert the homeowner of a possible plumbing leak with an audible alarm and drain the water away into a drywell underneath the CleanSpace until the homeowner can fix the leak. Next we install our TerraBlock system directly on the dirt floor of the crawl space to create an insulated barrier between the home and the earth and this will prevent moisture from making its way up through the crawl space floor. On top of the TerraBlock, we install our CleanSpace system. This 20 mil woven barrier goes on the crawl space floor, all along the foundation walls, up to the rim joists. It is then sealed at the footing of the wooden posts with our waterproof tape. We also make sure all the vents in the crawl space are completely sealed shut to prevent outside air from entering. To control the environment, we install our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. This will effectively eliminate damp, musty odors by drying and filtering the air all while keeping the space at a healthy relative humidity. Lastly to finish this space we install our foam insulation. This is sprayed all along the foundation walls, up to the rim joists and will fill every crack and void ensuring a complete airtight seal, protecting the home for years to come. 

Encapsulating your crawl space with our system will leave your crawl space looking bright, clean and waterproofed! All while benefiting your indoor air quality and energy bills! If you have a nasty, wet or unhealthy crawl space, encapsulating it with our cleanspace system is the way to go!

The Spray foam insulation we use is a closed cell which means it acts as a barrier to moisture and air. Giving the homeowner added protection and a more comfortable home, along with saving money on energy bills! 

This customer called with concerns of water in their crawlspace and had seen us at a home show. When our design specialist went out they found water and moisture in the crawlspace, when left untreated it can cause mold and wood rot problems to your crawlspace. Our crew went out and cleaned all the debris and old worn vapor barrier out. We installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier that is 20 mils thick and rip-resistant. To help keep the water from pooling in the crawlspace we installed Smart Sump and a new discharge line to make sure the water that is pumped out does not come right back in. We also installed our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier that keeps humidity levels down which stops the moisture and also filters out mold spores, dust, and other allergens. This customer was so happy that they now have a dry and clean crawlspace and peace of mind that the foundation of their home is protected for years to come. 

This crawl space had puddles all over and the insulation was absorbing the moisture. The crawl space was so wet our crew had to do a dry out. After we dried out the crawl space our crew installed an encapsulation system. Our CleanSpace vapor barrier protects against moisture and mold. Along with our Smart Sump that is the perfect size for a crawl space. This homeowner never has to worry about puddles in her crawl space again.
