This home had mold growth that was eating away at the homes' foundation. The homeowner decided to have Fontier Basement Systems come and encapsulate his wet crawl space. His crawl space is now mold-free, and energy-efficient!
This Nashville family had owned their home for 16 years and just started noticing mold within the past month.
Their main concern was the mold growing on their piers, which is detrimental to their home's foundation. They also had noticed some musty odors that they wanted to eliminate.
The musty odor is coming from the mold, which is due to high humidity in the crawl space.
Our go-to solution for these issues is installing the CleanSpace Liner and Drainage Matting.
The CleanSpace Liner Benefits are:
It reduces moisture and humidity
Helps seal out cold winter drafts (which will reduce heating costs!)
Extremely durable (20mil thick, 7 layer polyethylene composition)
And the Drainage Matting will give rainwater a channel to flow from under the liner and into the crawl space drain or sump pump system.
The family now has an encapsulated crawl space that will ensure no more mold will grow, nor will bring its stinky odor with it!
These Tennessee homeowners were having problems with their porch. It had begun sinking, which caused 1) a huge tripping hazard AND 2) the stairs to push away from the porch slab. They had called us for help and our crew got to work! They used PolyLevel to lift the porch slab and NexusPro Joint Sealant in order to fill the large crack to make sure no more water could slide its way down between the slabs, which would only cause further damage.
They now no longer have to worry about their foundation getting worse or anyone tripping over the uneven slab!
Want to know more about NexusPro Joint Sealant? Here are the details!
NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant for joints and cracks specially engineered to provide long-lasting flexibility and to stand up to harsh weather conditions. Unlike traditional polyurethane sealants, NexusPro resists UV rays, which means it won't crack, bubble or dry. It fits into homeowners' busy lifestyles, too - drying time is a fraction of that needed for other urethane-based caulking products.
This homeowner knew that there were issues with his crawl space, and knew it was time to take care of them. After talking to our design specialist, They were able to explain to him what the issues were and what exactly had caused them. Then the homeowner and our design specialist were able to come up with a plan to fix the problems and fix what was causing the problems to ensure that the issues were fixed once and for all.
This Tennessee crawl space had a big problem with moisture. Thankfully, the homeowners saw the signs before it caused major structural damage. Their wood beams in the space were wet and moldy, and there was a musty, damp smell lingering upstairs. They were very worried about wood rot/failure, so they went searching for a company that could fix their moisture issue. The homeowners stumbled on our website and liked our encapsulation process. They wanted to learn more about it in person and see if it could be their crawl space solution! They took advantage of our free inspection and called our appointment center. We had our trained and very friendly inspector, John, come out to meet them. John looked around their space, took a few moisture and humidity tests, and then sat down with the homeowners to talk about what he found and how our encapsulation products could help them! After talking to John more about our products, they agreed that they were exactly what they needed!
