Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Repair in Madisonville, KY

This customer in Madisonville, KY called Frontier due to mold issues in their crawl space. When we did our inspection, we found moisture issues and mold growth in their crawl space. To mitigate the problems, we cleaned up the debris in the crawl space and then remediated the mold issue. After that to prevent the problem from reoccurring we installed Drainage matting, CleanSpace liner over the floors and walls, sealed the vents with SilverGlo panels, and installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier.

Checking Doorways

Checking levels of the door frames. When a crawl space has moisture issues, it can effect the support structures causing uneven door frames and windows.

Moisture Levels

Checking the level of moisture present in the wooden floor joists in the crawl space.

Moisture in Crawl Space

Checking the humidity level inside the crawl space. If there is his humidity, that indicates moisture is present which will allow mold to grow among other things that are damaging to your home.

Old Vapor Barrier

This old vapor barrier is not doing a good job at blocking any moisture from coming up through the floor. It will be removed before the project begins.

Moisture Weakening Crawl Space Walls

The crawl space walls have water lines due to moisture coming through and cracking, if left untreated this will soon become a structural issue leading to a much bigger project.

Crawl Space Vent

The crawl space vents will be sealed from the inside of the crawl space with SilverGlo panels to block any outside air from getting into the crawl space.

Drainage Matting

The debris has been removed and drainage matting has been installed on the floor. This matting will keep water from entering the crawl space through the ground.

CleanSpace Liner

Our CleanSpace liner is installed over the drainage matting on the floor, then wrapped around the crawl space supports and finally over the walls.

Project Completion

The mold has been treated, CleanSpace and drainage matting installed, vents sealed, and to finish the project a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier is installed to pull any moisture from the air.
