Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: CleanSpace in Nashville, TN

Located in Nashville, TN, a crawl space in dire need of improvement sought to tackle its persistent issues with mold and humidity. Before encapsulation, the space was prone to accumulating moisture and fostering an unpleasant environment. To address these concerns comprehensively, the project began by wrapping the walls and foundation pillars. Next, a drainage matting system was installed to manage water accumulation effectively. A resilient CleanSpace Liner, boasting a 20mil thickness, was meticulously laid over the drainage matting, forming a robust barrier against moisture and humidity. Every potential entry point for outside air was sealed shut with SilverGlo, ensuring optimal insulation and climate control. The installation of a Triple Safe Sump Pump and accompanying IceGuard and Drainage system provided additional layers of protection against water intrusion, even in the harshest conditions. To seamlessly integrate the crawl space with the surrounding landscape, a LawnScape system was implemented. Furthermore, a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier was introduced to maintain ideal humidity levels, promoting a healthier environment overall. The transformation was completed with the installation of a new EverLast Door, constructed from durable 1/2 inch thick PVC plastic, which sealed the space air-tight. With these comprehensive enhancements, the crawl space not only mitigated its previous issues but also became a more functional and sustainable part of the property. For those seeking similar solutions to crawl space challenges, do not hesitate to contact us for expert assistance.
