Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Nathan and Deanna C. of Stanchfield, MN were experiencing water moisture issues in their crawl space and wanted it repaired right away. After researching local contractors on HomeAdvisor, they came across American Waterworks. They called our office line to set up a FREE Estimate with one of our Design Specialists, Ryan Powell. Ryan went to their home to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. Nathan and Deanna got all of their questions answered, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Garrett Luke, and his production team began the installation by laying 748 feet of drainage matting on the ground. Then, our team applied 1,196 feet of our CleanSpace Wall Vapor Encapsulation around the whole crawl space perimeter. Our CleanSpace is made to prevent mold, mildew, and humidity, hide any holes or divots, serves as an extra wall protectant, and it gives the space a neat and clean appearance.

A homeowner from Calmar, IA, was noticing an odd phenomenon around his home. At times, a foul odor could be detected wafting through the air of the home. Try as he might, the homeowner could not pin down the source of the odor. After speaking with neighbors, he realized the issue might be coming from his below-ground crawl space. The homeowner didn't know much about crawl space upkeep, so he took to the internet to find a crawl space repair specialist near Calmar, IA. When he found American Waterworks, he was pleasantly surprised by our digital footprint, and decided to schedule his FREE estimate. 

Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Brady S, stopped out at the home to see what could be done. Brady got down in the crawl space to complete his thorough inspection, after which he met with the homeowner to discuss the best path forward. Brady began by explaining that the homeowner was correct to assume his crawl space was to blame for the odor. Brady explained that he found evidence of water intrusion, and would recommend crawl space encapsulation to fix the issue. Crawl space encapsulation requires several products to properly defend the space. First, drainage matting is laid down on the floor of the space. This dimpled mat works to provide a channel for water to flower freely through to a disposal site. Next, our CleanSpace is applied to the floors and walls of the crawl space. This 100% plastic vapor barrier stops moisture from passing through floors and porous concrete walls. The homeowner agreed, and he and Brady worked together to find the best time for the installation. 

When all was said and done, the homeowner was thrilled to know his musty crawl space was a worry of the past! 

Marsha Z. in Stillwater, MN had moisture in her crawl space. She was concerned that her air quality was being compromised, so she got in touch with American Waterworks to receive a free estimate. Shortly after she contacted us, one of our Design Specialists, Shane Nephew, went onsite to inspect her crawl space. He developed a plan to seal off her basement permanently from the ground by using CleanSpace and drainage matting.

Our Foreman, Jared Wroblewski, and his crew installed the CleanSpace and drainage matting which is now preventing humidity and pests from entering her home. Now that Marsha's crawl space is permanently separated from the earth, she can enjoy a healthier home and even lower energy costs. 

In Red Wing, MN, a homeowner noticed a musty smell coming from their crawl space. Concerned about mold growth, the homeowner began looking into crawl space repair contractors around the area and found us. Impressed by our stellar reviews, the homeowner contacted us to schedule their FREE estimate.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Darin S., arrived at the home to provide a thorough inspection. During the inspection, he used our advanced tools to test the humidity levels and looked for areas of mold growth and water leaks. After reporting his findings to the homeowner, Darin began working on a detailed solution to waterproof the crawl space. He recommended installing CleanSpace, our vapor wall liner that prevents water vapor from permeating the walls, Drainage Matting, our extremely durable matting that creates a drainage space between the CleanSpace and ground in the crawl space, and Foamax, our foam insulation panel to control humidity. After looking over the proposal, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, our Foreman, Lane S., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew successfully installed 1260 sqft of CleanSpace, 715 sqft of Drainage Matting, 353 sqft of Foamax.
