Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: CleanSpace in Lebanon, TN

A home in Lebanon, TN, boasted a sizable crawl space that the homeowners sought to utilize more effectively for storage. However, they encountered challenges with moisture accumulation in certain areas, prompting them to seek a solution. Opting for encapsulation, we embarked on a crawl space repair project to address these issues comprehensively. The project began with the installation of drainage matting to provide efficient water management beneath the crawl space. On top of this, a robust CleanSpace Liner, 20mil thick, was meticulously laid down, serving as a barrier to reduce moisture and humidity levels while completely sealing off the space from the ground. To further combat moisture and maintain optimal humidity levels, a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier was integrated into the system. With these components in place, the crawl space was transformed into a dry, usable area suitable for storage. Homeowners interested in similar solutions are encouraged to contact us for a free estimate, with no obligations.

The Original Crawl Space

Here is the original state of the home's crawl space. Over time, the consequences of leaving a crawl space unencapsulated become evident. Moisture seeps through the soil, fostering a damp environment prone to mold growth and structural damage. Without intervention, an unencapsulated crawl space risks becoming a breeding ground for pests and a source of indoor air quality issues.
