When moisture is a constant issue in the crawl space, this can lead to a plethora of issues. For this home it meant that the old fiberglass insulation was water logged and drooping from the HVAC systems. There was also a significant amount of debris that had been caked over the old vapor barrier, and a few wooden posts were damp, but not quite yet irreparable. To get the space healthy we would install a full waterproofing system. We installed a interior perimeter drain system which would collect groundwater and channel it to a newly installed TripleSafe sump pump. From here the water is discharged away from the home. TerraBlock insulation was than laid over the dirt floor and CleanSpace wrapped over it. CleanSpace is a 20 Mil vapor barrier with a woven fiber through it which helps to make it more durable and helps it to protect your home.
This homes crawlspace dirt floor was moist to the touch, and mold spores were creeping up some of the wood. To address the issue we installed a full encapsulation system to keep this space dry and healthy.
This homeowner had a homemade sump pump in their crawlspace, however, it couldn't stand up to the water that was pooling into the space. To properly handle the water issue, we did a full encapsulation with a newly installed TripleSafe sump pump.
This homeowners crawlspace had a humidity issue. Because of this water would be absorbed into the fiberglass insulation and mold spores would grow. The homeowners needed to change out the fiberglass and treat the mold every few years to keep on top of it. The were done with the constant upkeep and after searching online, decided to call up John's Waterproofing for an encapsulation.
This homeowner called to tell us he wanted his crawlspace looked at because it is dirty. When he saw the photos of water in the crawlspace that our inspector showed him, he decided it was time to get it taken care of once and for all. Our team removed the water, the damaged vapor barrier, and the falling insulation. After getting the space clean we sealed the crawlspace with our patented Clean Space material and the home owner was amazed at the transformation.
