Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

The crawl space of Jason W.’s Decatur, IL home was very wet. It leaked every time there was rainy weather and the flimsy plastic liner he had along the dirt floors did little to nothing to prevent water from getting in and causing damage. The space was unusable so he called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended a crawl space encapsulation system.

Woods installed CleanSpace along the foundation walls and floors as part of that system. Unlike other plastic liners that are usually 6 mil thick that bunch and tear, CleanSpace is a 20 mil thick plastic liner that is reinforced with polyester cord and secured in place. It forms a moisture barrier over the walls and floors to prevent water from entering the space, instead directing it down to the perimeter drainage system. It is treated with an anti-microbial finish so it won’t support mold or mildew growth on or under the liner.

This Decatur, IL homeowner noticed water leaking into her crawlspace. System Design Specialist Greg B. from Woods Basement Systems inspected the area and recommended the ideal solution for her problem.

Team Woods installed CleanSpace to protect her home from moisture. CleanSpace is an inorganic vapor barrier designed to prevent water and microbial growth from getting into to protected area. 

A homeowner from Decatur, Illinois wanted to finally waterproof and update her crawl space, and she knew you to call. Once she reached out to Woods Basement Systems, she was quickly connected with system design specialist, John S., who worked with her to find a permanent way to clean up and waterproof her crawl space.

John gave the recommendation of installing a CleanSpace vapor barrier system onto the walls and floor to seal the crawl space while also giving the space a fresh new look. Head foreman, Chris S. installed the CleanSpace barrier system. Jesse led his team of installers to quickly and efficiently install the new system into Barbara's dirty crawl space.

Homeowners in Decatur, IL were dealing with a wet and humid crawl space, so they decided to give Woods Basement Systems a call. To help keep moisture out and seal the crawl space, a CleanSpace™ liner was used and is twice the strength of other vapor barriers. The SmartSUMP™ Sump Pump was then installed to keep the area dry. Lastly, the SaniDry™ was put in to ensure the air would not get humid. With these systems in place, the homeowners can rest easy knowing their crawlspace is clean and sealed for years to come!

This Decatur, IL business owner was getting tired of his old, dirt crawlspace and how it was easily accessible for unwanted water and animals to enter. He contacted Woods Basement Systems for his free estimate and found that a CleanSpace encapsulation system is exactly what he needs. This 20-mil-thick material that covers the dirt crawlspace creates a barrier from the outside environment and reduces humidity levels. With the addition of our SmartSump sump pump and SaniDry CX dehumidifier the crawlspace is guaranteed to stay dry.

This Decatur business now has a clean, brand-new looking crawlspace that they can use as they please.
