Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Damp and Unstable Crawlspace Repaired in Staunton, IL
Moisture was entering a crawlspace in Staunton, IL, creating a damp and moldy atmosphere. The support blocks were also failing, causing additional issues. To solve these issues, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This will completely isolate the crawlspace from the earth, dramatically reducing the humidity level. This will also eliminate mold growth and make the whole house healthier. The white finished side will brighten the crawlspace and will allow one to easily see inside. Additionally, the SmartDrain Plumbing Leak System was installed. This will alert the homeowner if a plumbing leak occurs and will drain the water away into a dry well under the CleanSpace until the leak can be fixed. Lastly, the SmartJack System was installed. This will stabilize the beams and floor joists in the crawlspace and lift the floor above it back toward its original elevation. Floor bounce caused by weakened joists or excessive spans will also be reduced. Thanks to these systems, this crawlspace will remain dry, clean, and stable for years to come!
