Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Curt A. of Mount Vernon, Illinois had a musty, moist crawl space that needed repair, so he decided to call Woods Basement Systems for help. Systems design specialist, Brandon B. found a solution and recommended installing a Twin Pack sump pump, a CleanSpace encapsulation system, and a Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier. 

Foreman, Joshua B. installed the products. The Twin Pack sump pump includes two stainless steel sump pumps that work to protect your home from leaks and floods. CleanSpace is a vapor barrier made of inorganic materials, so it is not susceptible to mold growth. It is used to fully seal off a crawl space from dirt, critters, and moisture. The Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier is guaranteed to keep your crawl space dry by making sure moisture stays out, and overall creating better air quality for the above levels in your home. 

Now Curt A. has a dry, healthy crawl space. 

This crawlspace beneath a home in Mount Vernon, IL. was protected against water damage with a light waterproof layer. This liner would block water and water vapor from risingin out of the dirt floor and into the crawlspace, where it could cause damage to the wooden structure above.

However, this liner was little more than plastice sheets. This liner was not durable and could tear easily. It also wasn't mold resistant, allowing mold to grow across its surface and cause damage to the liner and possibly spread to anything the liner touched.

That's why the homeowners hired Woods Basement Systems to upgrade their crawlspace protection with CleanSpace™. CleanSpace™ is a durable waterproofing liner made of several layers. The bottom layer is textured to allow water to flow beneath it so that any water built up there can flow to the sump pump. The top layer is a clean, white liner that will keep the inside totally dry. CleanSpace™ also features and anti-microbial layer that will prevent mold from growing on its surface.

With the new CleanSpace™ liner installed, the homeowner won't have to worry about their crawlspace protection tearing or growing moldy. Plus, the crawlspace is transformed into a useful space for safe storage in a nice clean room.

In Mount Vernon, Illinois homeowner Ben D. was concerned about his crawl space. His crawl space was dirt covered, unsealed and smelly. After talking with a friend, he realized he could fix all of these problems and transform his crawl space into another place for storage in his home. He decided it was time to call Woods Basement Systems and get his crawl space sealed once and for all. 

Here at Woods, not only are we the experts in all things basementy and foundation repair, we also seal and transform crawl spaces. In addition, we extend the drainage line underground away from the foundation to further prevent water from entering the home. Once the job was completed, Ben was happy with the way his crawl space turned out and that he had a new place to store items in his home.

Jim M. of Mount Vernon, IL was concerned with his crawl space having a damp smell. Our system design specialist, Luke K., understood Jim’s concerns and recommended a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier. CleanSpace keeps away unwanted water and vapor seepage, keeping the affected area dry. Once our foreman, James L., and his crew installed this durable and permanent solution, Jim can enjoy a clean and dry crawl space.

Water was seeping into a crawlspace in Lincoln, IL, causing mold to grow. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This will completely isolate the crawlspace from the earth and reduce the humidity level. Any mold growth will also be eliminated, making the whole house healthier. The white color will also brighten the crawlspace and make it easier to see inside it. This crawlspace will now stay dry all the time!
