Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

BEFORE: This Bowling Green, Missouri crawl space used to experience high humidity due to the exposed dirt floor. (Moisture in a crawl space leads to mold and woodrot.)

AFTER: Woods Basement Systems installed the CleanSpace vapor barrier and SilverGlo insulation—which now saves this home owner on energy costs and increases the home's comfort.

Water was entering a crawlspace in Bowling Green, MO, causing mold to grow. The insulation was also failing and not staying in place. To solve these issues, Woods first installed SilverGlo Crawlspace Insulation. This features a radiant barrier with graphite infused in it that reflects heat into the crawlspace to save energy. Next, a CleanSpace liner was installed. This will isolate the crawlspace from the dirt, and keep it free of insects, water, and mold. Next, a SmartSump was installed to pump any water that gets in out of the house. This sump system will continue to pump water out even if the power to the house goes out, thanks to the UltraSump, which is an additional pump that runs on a battery. Lastly, a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier was added to filter the crawlspace air and keep it dry. This crawlspace will remain clean and dry for years to come thanks to these systems!

Rhonda H. of Richwoods, MO was concerned about her wet crawl space. The high moisture levels caused mold and caused the wooden floor support to rot. A System Design Specialist visited her home and inspected the crawl space to design a solution.

Foreman Juan H. and his team installed the CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. CleanSpace is an inorganic vapor barrier so it does not support mold growth. With CleanSpace, Rhonda no longer has to worry about her crawl space. It stays dry all the time.

This crawlspace in Irondale, MO had rotting wood, causing the floor above it to be unleveled. By installing a SmartJack™ 350 and a supplemental beam, the wall anchors keep the wood up and the floor above leveled. Without them, the floor would potentially collapse and cause damage to the homeowner and to the home's value should she desire to sell the home.

Karrie E., Washington, Missouri resident, was distraught by the mold in her wet, musty basement. System design specialist Chris T. designed a solution to keep her basement dry and the mold at bay.

Foreman Greg H. installed CleanSpace in addition to WaterGuard and TripleSafe. CleanSpace is a vapor barrier that will guide water to the WaterGuard and keep the humidity low in the basement. With the water out and the humidty low, Karrie no longer has to worry about a moldy basement.
