Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A crawlspace in Herrin, IL, was humid and needed to be addressed before mold appeared. This was causing distress to the homeowner, so they decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, CleanSpace™ was used. This durable liner will keep out the humidity and other outside elements, like rot and critters. Next, a sump pump was used to discharge the water out of the basement. This sump pump has a battery back-up generator to ensure the pump keeps working, even during a power outage. With these systems in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their basement is in great shape! 

Water had entered a crawlspace in Sorento, Il, causing damage. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This will separate the crawlspace from the earth and will reduce the humidity level. Any mold growth will also be eliminated, making the whole house healthier. Lastly, the white color will brighten the crawlspace and make it easier to see inside it. This crawlspace will now remain clean and dry for years to come!

A crawlspace in Sorento, IL, was unstable and in need of structural support. This needed to be addressed, so the homeowner decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, SmartJack™ was installed. This system will help support and distribute the weight of the home and can be tightened over time. With this system in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their crawlspace is safe to use. 

Water getting into crawlspaces can lead to big messes and makes them completely unusable for storage. Betty and David B. of Chatham B. knew this all too well so they called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended encapsulating the crawlspace.

As part of the crawlspace encapsulation system, Woods installed CleanSpace Vapor Barrier throughout the crawlspace. It's a durable, thick plastic liner that will keep moisture from getting into the crawlspace.

Betty and David B. have the peace of mind that they can use their crawlspace for storage and their belongings will stay dry.

Encapsulated crawlspaces are fantastic for keep water and moisture out of the crawlspace but unforeseen plugging leaks can fill up an encapsulated crawlspace and create major damage. Woods Basement Systems understands that problems with plumbing may arise, so when Woods encapsulated Betty and David B.'s Chatham, IL crawlspace, they installed a SmartDrain.

The SmartDrain installs perfectly with the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, to create an air tight seal. It collects any water that gets into the encapsulated crawlspace from a plumbing issue and drains it down to a bed of gravel that leads to a dry well that will allow the water to seep into the soil below the crawlspace. It is equipped with a WaterWatch Alarm that will alert the homeowner when water is being collected in the drain so the homeowner knows there's an issue before it turns into a much bigger problem.
