Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Repairing a Crawl Space in Effingham, IL
Homeowners in Effingham, IL had moisture leaking into their crawl space, which was leaving their home susceptible to insects, mold, and humidity. Our team installed SmartSump, CleanSpace, and SaniDry into their crawl space. The SmartSump is a drainage system that the water is directed to and pumps the water out of the home. CleanSpace provides a vapor barrier for the walls and floor around the crawl space to drain wall leaks and stop the water vapor from permeating the walls. The SaniDry is an air filtration system that controls the relative humidity and prevents any mold or mildew from forming. After installing these systems, the homeowners were happy with their dry and clean crawl space for years to come!
The Before Crawl Space
This is the before image of the crawl space that is susceptible to moisture, mold, and insects. The exposed space also leaks cold air into the home.
The Sump Pump
The SmartSump is smaller than the TripleSafe so that it fits in the crawl space and works to pump the water out of the home. The UltraSump battery is connected to the SmartSump and helps to provide backup protection in case of a power outage.
The Vapor Barrier
CleanSpace was added to provide a vapor barrier to the walls and floor and to stop moisture from entering the crawl space.
The Dehumidifier
The SaniDry system protects the basement from mold and mildew by controlling the relative humidity.
