Before & After Photos

This homeowner called because he noticed that his hardwood floors were cupping in his home. He was concerned that the issue may be stemming from his crawl space, so we sent one of our crawl space experts, Darrin, to the home. Darrin performed a free crawl space inspection and estimate and found evidence of moisture issues. These moisture issues in the crawl space were allowing humidity to enter the home through the hardwood floors, which was causing the floors to warp and buckle. He formulated a custom solution for the crawl space that included closing off outside air and installing drainage matting, vapor barrier, sump pump, and dehumidifier. The homeowner was impressed with the solution and pricing and proceeded to purchase a full crawl space encapsulation system from Olympic Restoration Systems.

This homeowner called because he noticed that the hardwood floors in his home were "cupping", or warping. He was concerned that it was due to a moisture problem in the crawl space. When he looked in his crawl space, he found what appeared to be mold. We sent one of our system designs specialists, Darrin, to the home for a free crawl space inspection and estimate. Darrin found evidence of moisture and humidity issues in the crawl space. He designed a system that would fully encapsulate the crawl space to prevent the hardwood floors from further damage, and would prevent mold growth in the crawl space. The homeowner was pleased with the proposal and proceeded with the work from Olympic Restoration Systems. 

The crawl space encapsulation system included installing a drainage matting, CleanSpace vapor barrier, sump pump, and dehumidifier. The Production Team also closed off any outdoor air from entering the crawl space, which included closing any crawl space vents and sealing block walls. This turned the wet crawl space into a dry, conditioned area.
