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

This customer in Gallatin, 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 EZ Flo drainage system and drainage matting, covered the crawl space in CleanSpace liner, and installed a TripleSafe sump pump and IceGuard and LawnScape System.

Debris Removed

These bags are filled with all the debris removed from the crawl space. This includes the old vapor barrier, the wet a dripping insulation, and all other debris.

Crawl Spaced Cleaned Out

This is what the crawl space looks like after debris removal, it is now ready for our crew to start the project and install all the encapsulation products.

Excavation

An area around the perimeter is dug for the EZ Flo installation and the sump pump.

TripleSafe Sump Pump

At Frontier Foundation & Crawl Space Repair, we install patented sump pump systems that have been developed by Basement Systems®, Inc. since 1987. They include the best cast-iron sump pumps and longest-lasting battery backup pumps in the industry.

EZ Flo

The EZ Flo is installed, surrounded by clean gravel, and then buried. This will absorb all the water and funnel it to the sump pump and then pumped out of the crawl space.

Drainage Matting

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

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.

IceGuard System

An escape route. Water escapes from the IceGuard® fitting only when the discharge line becomes clogged. Otherwise, water flows past the slotted openings into the drain pipe.
