This Kentucky family was having a problem with an excessive amount of moisture in their wood beams. They had a liner of types on the ground, but it did not do a good job at sealing out most of the vapor, plus they had an open vent in their crawl space, which is a big no-no. The reason why it is a bad idea is because you are letting the moisture outside come inside, bringing drafty winter floors, high energy bills, and pests with it!
This family had noticed their floors starting to sag and worried about the health of their home. They found us via HomeAdvisor and called immediately. Our inspector came over to inspect and then discussed with the family what he found and which of our products would work to resolve the problem best.
They agreed on these products:
CleanSpace Liner- thick 20 mil liner that reduces moisture and vapor in the crawl space
CleanSpace Drainage Matting- has dimples that help trapped water flow to the designated drain
IceGuard- prevents flooding due to frozen discharge lines (because of its perforated top!)
SaniDry Sedona- energy efficient dehumidifier that keeps your humidity levels below 55%, plus you never have to worry about dumping this one out!
They now have a healthy crawl space that they no longer have to worry about excessive moisture getting to their wood piers!
This 1912 Tennessee home's patio starting dropping and cracking. There are a number of reasons why this could happen, a few of them being erosion, flooding, and the soil not being properly prepared for the concrete. Puddles of water would form in the drop and stay there for a few days following rainfall. A huge void under the patio appeared and that got the homeowners even more worried about their concrete slab because they knew more water could find its way underneath the slab much easier and cause more damage.
The homeowners looked for concrete specialists online and liked our lifting and sealing products. They called our office and we scheduled them a free inspection with our inspector. After speaking in person with a trained specialist, the homeowners loved our products and system even more and agreed wit hall of his suggestions to fix their patio.
Our concrete guru lifted the concrete slab with PolyLevel to make it level with the other slabs, sealed the cracks with NexusPro Sealant, and filled in the void back in!
PolyLevel- an expanding polyurethane foam that is injected beneath the concrete to fill the gaps caused by soil erosion and raise and stabilize the concrete surface. It also fills sinkholes and other voids!
NexusPro Sealant- a silicone-based sealant for joints and cracks specially engineered to provide long-lasting flexibility and to stand up to harsh weather conditions. Unlike traditional polyurethane sealants, NexusPro resists UV rays, which means it won't crack, bubble or dry.
The homeowner was thrilled with this easy solution and is glad to no longer have to worry about the cracks getting worse or the void growing larger!
