Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A crawlspace was not properly supported in Jonesboro, IL, and moisture entered it. To solve these issues, the SmartJack System was first installed. These steel support systems can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists and rafters in a crawlspace. These add strength and stability to the existing columns and piers in the 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. Next, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This prevents crawl space moisture by encapsulating it with a vapor barrier, closing the crawl space vents, and conditioning the space to make a healthier crawlspace and home!

Al P. of East Alton, IL had hidden leaks behind his wooden finished walls. Organic materials, like wood, and water do no mix. As seen in the picture, the wooden frames had started to rot so he called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended a waterproofing system.

Woods installed CleanSpace over the foundation walls. CleanSpace is a thick, durable plastic moisture barrier. It prevents water getting into the basement through the walls, instead directing it down to the perimeter drainage system. It’s mold resistant and gives the basement a much brighter and cleaner appearance.

A unsealed crawlspace in East Alton, Illinois, was seeping humidity and cold up through the floor and into the home. To address these issues, Woods first installed the CleanSpace System. This system consists of a highly durable and inorganic tarp that seals off the ground from the house above. It also helps brighten up the space as well as keeping rot and insects at bay. Woods also installed the SilverGlo system. SilverGlo is attached to the walls of the crawlspace. It provides insulation and reflects heat back into the crawlspace, which will save this homeowner money on heating and cooling. Thanks to these two installs, this crawlspace will remain sealed for many years to come.

Kimball C. of Brighton, Illinois discovered that his home's crawl space was collecting water after big storms. He knew that standing water could cause rotting and mold growth. He called Woods Basement Systems in order to avoid those problems.

Design specialist Jacob K. assessed the situation and decided the best option was to install a CleanSpace encapsulation system. Foreman James L. then traveled to the home to get the job started.

The CleanSpace encapsulation system, pictured above, was placed on the floors and up the walls of the crawl space. It is a durable and heavy duty liner that acts as a vapor barrier and drains any leaks that might occur behind it.

Kimball C. no longer has to worry about his home's crawl space holding water. He now has a dry and waterproof crawl space.

A crawlspace in Brighton, IL was humid and needed to be addressed before concerns of mold emerged. This was causing distress to the homeowner, so they decided to give Woods a call. To solve this issue, CleanSpace was used. This highly durable liner will not only make the crawlspace look nicer, it will also keep the humidity and other outside elements out. With this system in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their crawlspace will remain free of humidity.
