Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Repair in Portland, TN
In response to persistent issues of a musty crawl space in a Portland home, a comprehensive repair project was initiated to address the underlying moisture concerns. The initial step involved the installation of draining matting strategically placed to facilitate efficient water flow away from the foundation, tackling the moisture-laden environment at its source. To further fortify the crawl space against excess moisture and humidity, a high-quality CleanSpace Liner, boasting a robust 20-mil thickness, was meticulously laid over the drainage matting. This impermeable barrier not only acts as a shield against ground moisture but also significantly reduces humidity levels in the crawl space. In a strategic move to combat water accumulation, a Triple Safe Sump Pump and SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier were introduced to efficiently pump out excess water, ensuring a dry and controlled environment. The culmination of this meticulous repair project involved the installation of a cutting-edge EverLast Door, constructed from airtight 1/2-inch-thick PVC plastic. This state-of-the-art door not only provides a durable and secure barrier but also contributes to the overall encapsulation efforts, creating a sealed and protected crawl space. The collective measures undertaken in this repair endeavor not only address the existing symptoms of mustiness but also serve as a proactive solution to prevent future moisture-related issues, ultimately enhancing the health and integrity of the home's crawl space.
