Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Encapsulating and Stabilizing a Crawlspace in Fairview Heights, IL
Moisture was seeping into a crawlspace in Fairview Heights, IL, causing mold to grow. The support blocks were also failing, causing the beams above to sag. To solve these issues, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was first 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. Next, the SmartJack System was installed. These steel support systems can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists and girders in the crawlspace. These add strength and stability to the existing columns and piers. They are unaffected by moisture, as they will not rust, weaken, or be affected by mold. Lastly, an EverLast Crawlspace Door was installed. This will seal off outside air, so it doesn't enter the crawlspace. It will never need paint, rust, or rot, so it will do its part in keeping the crawlspace dry. Thanks to these systems, this crawlspace will remain dry and stable for years to come!
