Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Encapsulation in White House, TN

This customer in White House, TN called us for moisture issues in his crawl space. We decided to do a full crawl space encapsulation. This project includes removing all the old moisture-damaged debris, adding drainage matting to the floors, covering the entire crawl space with our CleanSpace liner, and adding a TripleSafe sump pump, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and IceGuard drainage lines. We finished the project by connecting a Lawnscape system that will carry all the water captured out to the yard away from the structure to protect the foundation and a new EverLast crawl space door. Now this customer had a clean, dry, and healthy crawl space.

Crawl Space Before Project Begins

This crawl space has visible signs of moisture damage. Water can be seen pooling on the old vapor barrier.

Moisture Damage

When the vapor barrier is pulled back, water lines can be seen on the concrete block. You can also see that the insulation has absorbed moisture and is dripping from the ceiling. Without mitigation this will start to grow mold which will then start to grow on the wood floor joists.

EZ Flo

The EZ Flo is buried on the crawl space floor after all debris has been removed. This will absorb water and lead it to the sump pump then out through the drainage lines away from the home.

Drainage matting

This dimpled plastic sheet material promotes good drainage over the entire crawl space floor.

CleanSpace® Liner

CleanSpace® can hold back water vapor passing through your foundation walls and floors, directing it to your sump pump. With anti-microbial protection called UltraFresh built right in, no mold or mildew will grow on the CleanSpace!

SaniDry Sedona

The SaniDry Sedona offers giant performance in a small package. It's the world's most efficient, high-performance dehumidifier, without a bulky heat exchange core. The Sedona easily fits in small crawl spaces, yet has a powerful blower to effectively dry large crawl spaces.

TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System

Our most reliable sump pump system, the TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System, provides three levels of protection for your basement and your peace of mind. For normal functioning, the TripleSafe™ has a powerful, cast-iron Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower sump pump set at the lowest level. For heavy volumes of water or in case of primary pump failure, a second, more powerful Zoeller® ½ hp pump set a bit higher in the liner will take over.

IceGuard® Discharge Line and LawnScape System

IceGuard® Discharge Line Protection: Many sump pump discharge lines are susceptible to freezing during the cold winter months. Our IceGuard® discharge line protection prevents this from happening, with no need for the homeowner to do anything! This specifically designed grated adapter is located outside where the discharge line exits the house. If the pipe underground freezes in the winter, water can still be pumped out without the worry of backups into your basement!

IceGuard and LawnScape Installed

The IceGuard and LawnScape system are now fully installed and buried.
