Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A home in Normandy, TN, faced severe moisture problems in its crawl space, leading to persistent musty odors that affected the first floor living area. During an inspection, it was discovered that the relative humidity was alarmingly high at 73.19%, and the wood moisture content was at 20%. These conditions indicated a high risk of mold growth, wood rot, and deteriorated indoor air quality, which jeopardized both the structural integrity and healthiness of the home. We installed drainage matting to improve water management and covered it with a 20-mil thick CleanSpace Liner, creating a complete barrier that reduces moisture and humidity. A Triple Safe Sump Pump system, including IceGuard and LawnScape components, was put in place to handle water flow and prevent backups. Additionally, a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier was added to maintain optimal humidity levels. With these measures, the crawl space is now dry, well-managed, and energy-efficient, significantly improving the overall health and comfort of the home.

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.
