Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Jeffrey and Maureen M., Belleville, Illinois homeowners, were distraught by their musty, moldy crawlspace. The wet crawlspace, crawling with mold, risked damage to the wooden support.

Pete N., system design specialist, designed a solution to keep the crawlspace dry and mold-free. CleanSpace was installed by foreman James L. CleanSpace is an inorganic vapor barrier, so it does not support mold. Jeffrey and Maureen are pleased to have a dry, mold-free crawlspace.

Homeowner, Kellen W. of Belleville, IL noticed a musty smell along with uneven floors in her crawl space. She did not know for sure why this was occurring so she gave Woods Basement Systems a call. Our system design specialist Nolan M. headed out to Belleville to do an inspection on the home and create a design that would resolve the issue. During the inspection, he discovered that the smell and uneven floors were due to standing water in the crawlspace of her home. 

Foreman, Joshua B. did a CleanSpace encapsulation system installation. Many homeowners do not know exactly what is going on in their crawlspace. The air in the crawlspace is damp. If there is mold growing, it causes the dust and dirt to travel in the upper level of the home. The CleanSpace crawlspace encapsulation system prevents water from leaking which reduces moisture and prevent mold. With this system, the air of Kellen W. home is safe and allergen-free.

Kellen W. of Belleville, Illinois discovered that his home's crawl space was holding water. He knew that standing water could cause mold growth and rotting, and there was already a musty smell in his home because of it. He decided to call Woods Basement Systems for assistance.

Design specialist Nolan M. assessed the situation and decided that the best solution was to install a CleanSpace encapsulation system, a SmartPipe drainage system, a SmartSump sump pump, and a Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier. Foreman Joshua B. then traveled to the home to get the job started.

The CleanSpace encapsulation system, pictured above, is a durable liner that is placed on the floor and up the walls of the crawl space. It acts as a vapor barrier and completely seals the crawl space from the ground below.

Kellen W. no longer has to worry about water coming up from the ground and flooding his home's crawl space. He now has a dry and waterproof crawl space.

In Belleville, Illinois homeowner Elise O. recently visited her crawlspace and was shocked by how damp and dirty it has become over the years. Wanting to use the space for extra storage, she decided to call Woods Basement Systems to find a solution for her crawl space.

Our foremen Jesse Crotser and his team had the perfect solution to waterproof her crawl space, so she can use it for storage. To completely seal the crawl space, they used several items such as; SmartSump, CleanSpace, IceGuard, and Vent Guards. With all these items working together, Elise can now use her crawl space for storage and will not have to worry about the items being damaged by water.

Moisture was entering a crawlspace in Belleville, IL, causing mold to grow and create a musty environment. 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 remain dry and stay clean for years to come!
