Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

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!

A homeowner in Genoa, WI, noticed an odd smell throughout their home. Unsure where the source of the smell was coming from, the homeowner began investigating their home. The homeowner discovered the smell was coming from their crawl space. Worried this could mean larger issues, the homeowner knew they needed professional assistance. The homeowner looked into "crawl space repair near Genoa, WI" and several companies populated. However, only one company stood above the rest, American Waterworks. After reading about our crawl space repair and encapsulation services, the homeowner knew we were the best option for them. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner awaited the arrival of Trevor, one of our Design Specialists. Trevor arrived at the home and started his detailed investigation of the crawl space. During his investigation, Trevor confirmed the smell was coming from the crawl space and it needed to be encapsulated. Trevor presented his solution to the homeowner and they agreed. The plans were sent to our office for approval, then to our Foreman, Diego, and his crew. Once they received the plans, Diego and his crew traveled to the home to begin the project. First, the crew began by laying CleanSpace on the crawl space floor and walls. Next, the crew attached Foamax to the crawl space walls. After the Foamax was secured, the crew installed spray foam near the top of the walls. Diego and his crew successfully encapsulated the entire crawl space, so they cleaned up their materials and left the home. American Waterworks is happy to encapsulate their customer's crawl spaces. 

A homeowner in Elgin, IA had a dirt floor crawl space. She was interested in having it encapsulated, because she noticed that she was losing heat and energy from the space and moisture had started accumulating in there. We sent one of our Design Specialists to meet with her, evaluate the situation, and propose the best, custom designed solution to fit her needs. She was impressed with the presentation and our products, and she moved forward with the installation.  

Our production crew installed our installed CleanSpace along the dirt floor and spray foam insulation in the rim joists. The combination of these products ensure the crawl space will remain a clean, energy efficient space.

Dick K. of Stoddard, WI had a musty smell in his crawl space and he wanted to get it sealed up. He saw one of our advertisements in his local newspaper, so he called the office line and talked to our appointment center about our free estimates. Our appointment center set him up with a free estimate with one of our expert Design Specialists. Our Design Specialist went to Dick's house, checked out his crawl space, and drew up the solution of our CleanSpace Encapsulation Vapor Barrier. Dick got all of his questions answered about the product and its warranty, so he scheduled a date for the installation. 

Our Foreman and his production team installed 686 square feet of our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier around the entire crawl space. This vapor barrier prevents water vapor and humidity from passing through while keeping the crawl space dry and protecting it from mold or rot. Along with that, it seals away bad odors and provides more storage to the home. Dick was happy with the work that was done and his peace of mind was restored!
