Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Encapsulation in Madison, TN

This customer in Madison, TN called Frontier due to moisture issues in their crawl space. To mitigate the moisture issues, we completed a crawl space encapsulation. We cleaned out all the debris, installed Drainage matting, covered the crawl space in CleanSpace liner, installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and sealed the crawl space vents and any other air leaks with SilverGlo panels and spray foam insulation. These products will work together to keep this crawl space clean and dry.

Before Project Begins

This crawl space is showing obvious signs of moisture damage. There is pooling water around the perimeter, a wet vapor barrier, and other debris caused by excess moisture.

Floor Joist Moisture

Checking the level of moisture in the wood floor joists. These readings will be compared with readings taken in the crawl space, outside the home, and inside the first floor of the home. With all these readings we will get an accurate reading of moisture levels inside the crawl space.

Debris Removal

All the debris in the crawl space has been removed so the project can begin.

Drainage Matting

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

Crawl Space Door

Any air leaks from the crawl space door are sealed off with spray foam insulation. Another step in keeping the outside air from getting into the crawl space.

Sealing Air Leaks

All areas where air flow can penetrate are sealed off with SilverGlo Panels and spray foam insulation.

CleanSpace® vapor barrier

One of the key ingredients in our encapsulation system is the CleanSpace® vapor barrier, a super-durable, 20mil plastic sheet material designed to permanently prevent moisture, outside air and pests from getting into your crawl space.
