Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Moisture was entering a crawlspace in Sikeston, MO, creating a damp and musty atmosphere. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This will completely isolate the crawlspace from the earth, dramatically reducing the humidity level. This will also eliminate mold growth and make the whole house healthier. The white finished side will brighten the crawlspace and allow one to see inside easily. A SmartSump was also installed. This sump system is designed just for crawlspaces and will pump out any water that enters it. Thanks to these systems, this crawlspace will remain dry and clean for years to come!

Ryan M. of Sikeston, Missouri was shocked when he discovered that his home's crawl space was collecting water. He knew that standing water and moisture could cause rotting and mold growth, so he did not want to ignore the problem. He called Woods Basement Systems for help.

Design specialist Jacob K. assessed the situation and discussed the best option with the homeowner. Foreman Joshua B. then traveled to the home to install a CleanSpace encapsulation system. The CleanSpace encapsulation system is a durable plastic liner that is placed on the floor and up the walls of the crawl space. It acts as a vapor barrier, completely seals the crawl space from the earth, and brightens the crawl space.

Ryan M. no longer has to worry about any moisture entering his home's crawl space and causing damage. He now has a dry and waterproof crawl space.

A crawl space is that part of the house that you never think about until you turn on the air conditioner and wonder why your house smells like a dumpster. That’s why Joshua H called Woods Basement Systems. System Design Specialist Jacob K was able to come up with a solution to the problem.

Foreman James L installed CleanSpace in Joshua’s crawl space. This will keep the space dry, and keep mold away so that there are no bad smells in the house. 

A crawlspace's insulation was failing in Ellisville, MO, and moisture was entering it. It was also not supported correctly, causing even more issues. To fix these problems, SilverGlo Insulation was first installed. This features a radiant barrier infused with graphite, so the heat is reflected into the crawlspace, saving energy. Next, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This will completely isolate the crawlspace from the earth, dramatically reducing the humidity level. This will also eliminate mold growth and make the whole house healthier. The white finished side will brighten the crawlspace and allow one to see inside easily. Lastly, the SmartJack System was installed. These are steel support systems that can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists and girders in a crawlspace. They are unaffected by moisture, as they will not rust, weaken, or be affected by mold. These will lift the floors above back toward their original position, and reduce floor “bounce” caused by excessive joist spans Thanks to these systems, this crawlspace will remain warm, dry, and stable for years to come!

This Ballwin, MO home had a damp, dirty crawlspace with loose insulation hanging down and was unusable for storage. With CleanSpace, the crawlspace is brighter, much cleaner-looking, and waterproof, perfect for storage of household items.
