Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Vern K. in Plainview, MN noticed a musty smell coming from his crawl space. When he looked for what was causing the smell, he noticed that there was a lot of moisture in his crawl space. He was concerned about the air quality of his home and about the potential damage the moisture could cause.

He saw one of our advertisements on TV and saw that we are able to waterproof and encapsulate crawl spaces. He wanted to have a professional look at it so he gave us a call and we sent one of our Design Specialists, Dustin Loftus, to his home to do a free onsite estimate and create a solution to his problem.

Our production team installed a full perimeter of rim joist insulation which seals the rim joists and lowers Vern's energy costs. They also installed drainage matting and our CleanSpace vapor barrier. The combination of these crawl space waterproofing and encapsulation products turned Vern's crawl space into a dry, clean and energy efficient part of the house.

Jordan K. of Holcombe, WI wanted to have their crawl space encapsulated. They heard an American Waterworks radio advertisement, so they called our office and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Chad. Chad went to Jordan's home, inspected the crawl space, and drew up a solution for the issue. Jordan was confident in Chad's plan, so they went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Kiko, and his production team installed 640 feet of our CleanSpace Encapsulation Vapor Barrier, 400 feet of our Foamax Wall Panels, and our SmartDrain to fully waterproof the crawl space. Our vapor barrier is made to prevent mold, mildew, and rot while saving money on energy costs, and it provides more storage space. Our Foamax Wall Panels is a special foam insulation that brightens the crawl space and prevents water moisture from seeping through. Lastly, our SmartDrain guides the water into the drainage system or drain pipe. Jordan was thrilled with the work that was done and couldn't believe the project only took one day!

A homeowner from Stewartville, MN contact us when they began to notice unwanted cold air entering their crawl space, creating an energy inefficient space. When they called in, we set them up with our FREE estimate, entitling them to a thorough inspection by one of our System Design Specialists, Pete. After Pete finished his walkthrough, he made his recommendations as to how we could help. He wanted to use our CleanSpace vapor barrier to address any unwanted water, as well as aid in making the space more energy efficient. The homeowners quickly agreed and work began shortly after. 

Our Foreman, Lane, and his crew ended up installing over 1,400 sq ft of our CleanSpace throughout the crawl space with no hassle. They ended the project by spraying any remaining holes or joints with our spray foam. Now our customer can head into the winter months without worrying about their crawl space costing extra money!  

Ron H. in Elkton, MN had a musty smell coming from his dirt crawl space. He also noticed that it was very humid and he was concerned that energy was being lost through the crawl space. He saw a commercial for American Waterworks and was interested to learn more about our crawl space encapsulation services, so he contacted us for a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists went to his home to inspect his crawl space and develop a solution. We were able to confirm that there was quite a bit of moisture accumulating in his crawl space which was causing the musty smell. We also confirmed that energy was being wasted because his crawl space was not insulated. We presented him with an encapsulation plan and he was pleased with the proposal, so he scheduled a date for the project.

Our production team installed drainage matting along the dirt floor and installed our SuperSump sump pump in the corner of the crawl space. Then, they encapsulated the crawl space with our CleanSpace vapor barrier system which protects the space from moisture and potential mold growth. Lastly, they placed a SaniDry dehumidifier in the crawl space to control the humidity. The process took a couple of days to complete, but Ron now has a bright, clean and healthy crawl space. He is also saving money on his energy bill each month.
