Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

For a few months, a Viroqua, MN, homeowner had noticed a strange odor wafting through his home. Try as he might, he could not locate the source of the odor. One night it occurred to the homeowner that the odor might be coming from the crawl space beneath his home. Worried that it might be a deceased pest, he quickly began looking into crawl space repairs near Viroqua, WI. When he found our website, he signed up for his FREE estimate. Several weeks later, Ross J, one of our Design Specialists, was headed out to the home. When Ross arrived, he wasted no time getting down into the crawl space to see what the issue was. When he was finished, he met with the homeowner and informed him that there were no dead pests he needed to worry about. Rather, a different kind of nightmare, his crawl space was taking on unwanted water, leading to the formation of mildew and an unpleasant odor. Ross went on to say that he believed we could fix the issue and the leaky crawl space with the help of several of our products. Ross began by recommending our CleanSpace vapor barrier, a 100% waterproof tarp-like material that gets installed directly onto unfinished walls. It works to catch water entering through small holes and cracks in the wall, directing it downward and into our drainage matting, dimpled matting that provides a channel for water to flow to a disposal site, keeping it off the floor and properly draining the crawl space of water. Finally, Ross recommended our SmartDrain, a useful device that alerts homeowners to a leak with an audible alarm, and drains the water away to a drywell under the CleanSpace liner to protect against property damange. The homeowner was thrilled with Ross's plan and scheduled the job on the spot. 

When the project day rolled around, our Foreman, Raul B, and his team successfully installed 475 sqft of CleanSpace and 352 sqft of Drainage Matting. When the job was completed, our customer was thrilled to know he could put his damp crawl space worries behind him! 

A new homeowner from Ferryville, WI, was making some updates to his new property. The home had a crawl space below, and the new owner knew that if his crawl space wasn't properly encapsulated, it would not only make the home energy inefficient but could take on unwanted water and even critters.  He took to the internet to search for the 'best crawl space repair near me', and found our website. He looked through similar crawl space projects we had done in his area and was impressed with what he saw, so he signed up for his FREE estimate. Several weeks later, our Design Specialist made a stop at his home. 

Our Design Specialist got right to work evaluating the crawl space. When he finished, he met with the homeowner to deliver his recommendations. First, our Design Specialist recommended our CleanSpace for crawl space. Our CleanSpace is a 100% waterproof vapor barrier that gets applied directly to the unfinished walls of the crawl space. It works to trap any water entering through holes or cracks in the wall, directing it downward. To pair with the CleanSpace, our Design Specialist recommended our drainage matting. This matting gets installed below the CleanSpace on the crawl space floor. The dimpled matting allows any water collected by the CleanSpace a channel to flow to a disposal site such as a sump pump or discharge line. Finally, our Design Specialist informed the homeowner that even a basement with an effective waterproofing system can still develop moisture and mold problems and may feel damp. Concrete walls and floors continually absorb moisture from the soil and release it into the air in your basement, and store-bought dehumidifiers simply aren't strong enough to solve the problem. For this reason, he wanted to use our AprilAire dehumidifier. Adding an Aprilaire dehumidifier creates healthy air and can reduce the number of viable viruses in the air to less than 1% in two days when set to 50% RH. The homeowner agreed to the proposed work and scheduled the job for some time later. 

The day of the installation rolled around, and our team, led by their Foreman, Raul B, headed out to the home. When they had finished, they successfully installed 768 sqft of CleanSpace, 660 sqft of drainage matting, and 1 AprilAire dehumidifier. Now, our customer can enjoy his new property knowing that his home is functioning efficiently!
