Before encapsulation, a home in Erin, TN, undergoing renovations faced severe consequences due to moisture and high humidity in the crawl space. The relative humidity (RH%) and wood moisture content were alarmingly high, posing a significant threat to the structural integrity of the home. Walls and foundation pillars were wrapped, drainage matting was installed, and a 20-mil thick CleanSpace Liner was applied over the matting to seal the crawl space completely from the ground, reducing moisture and humidity levels significantly. These extensive measures not only resolved the moisture issues but also restored the structural integrity of the home, fostering a healthier living environment.

Before our intervention, a home in Shelbyville, TN was plagued by sagging floors and musty odors originating from its crawl space. A thorough inspection by our expert revealed telltale signs of foundation troubles, such as unlevel floors and cracks in both the floors and walls, indicating the shifting of the structure. Inside the crawl space, we discovered excess moisture, which not only contributed to the unhealthy musty odors but also caused significant damage to the wooden framework of the home, creating an overall hazardous environment. We installed our CleanSpace Liner, a 20-mil thick barrier over drainage matting, which efficiently sealed off the crawl space from ground moisture, drastically reducing humidity levels. For the foundation problems, we implemented steel beams, known for their durability and resistance to rot and mold, providing essential support to the structure. To lift and stabilize the sagging floors, we employed SmartJack Stabilizers made from galvanized steel, successfully restoring the floors to their original position. These comprehensive solutions not only secured the foundation but also created a healthier and more stable environment in the crawl space, enhancing the overall integrity and comfort of the home.
Before we installed our waterproofing solution in this basement, there was water getting in during storms. One of the weak spots was this door which homeowners use to enter the basement from the outside. Unfortunately, no mater what they did, water got in. With our WaterGuard and Sump Pump System, they don't have to worry about it anymore! Water is collected and led to the sump pump, and further pumped out from the basement.
