Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: St. Louis, MO Crawl Space Encapsulation & Radon Mitigation

Dirt crawl spaces are often nasty and moldy, especially during wet and humid months.  Wood framing and floor joists are exposed to groundwater seepage and humid air, and nothing stands between radon gas emissions and the home above without sealing and encapsulating a dirt crawl space. Ryan hired Woods Basement Systems to encapsulate and waterproof his crawl space and install a radon mitigation system to reduce mold and odors, keep his crawl space clean and dry, and mitigate the number one cause of lung cancer in non-smokers (radon gas).  Ryan describes his project this way: "Woods Basement installed a radon mitigation system for my basement and crawl space.  They also insulated, sealed, and cleaned up my crawl space using their CleanSpace technology.  This included: the CleanSpace liner, drainage matting, vent covers (to seal the crawl space), WallCap (used to cover the holes in cinder blocks), TerraBlock (used for insulation), SmartPipe (french drain around the perimeter of crawl space), a sump pump, IceGuard for the discharge line on the outside of the house, and a lawnscape outlet for the end of the discharge line." Ryan was very pleased with Woods Basement Systems, his System Design Specialists, and the crews that installed the waterproofing and radon mitigation systems. "[T]hey were the best I found for crawl space repair.  No other company has the patented products that they have.  They will take the time to educate you on what needs to be done and the science behind their process."
