Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Encapsulation in Gallatin, TN
This homeowner in Gallatin, TN, contacted Frontier Foundation & Crawl Space Repair to encapsulate their crawl space. Once inside the space, our team found an old, damaged vapor barrier. After that vapor barrier was removed, we rolled out drainage matting to help guide the flow of water out of the crawl space. After, we installed a new CleanSpace vapor barrier to provide protection against moisture. For additional moisture control, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was installed to pull any water droplets from the air. For the removal of larger quantities of water, a TripleSafe sump pump system was placed in the crawl space. Now, this homeowner can be assured their crawl space is now a more controlled, dry environment.
