This Tennessee couple was having high humidity and excessive moisture problems in their crawl space. This was causing mold and mold spores to grow, which started to affect the couple's health. They decided to call us based on a friend's recommendation and had us install our encapsulation systems and other products, such as our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to keep humidity below 55%.
Along with our encapsulation system, the couple had learned about our EverLast crawl space doors and were intrigued.
Our doors are made from ½-in.-thick PVC plastic that is just about indestructible. Too often, a crawl space door is simply cut from a piece of plywood and secured loosely over the crawl space opening with hinges or screws. Unfortunately, this treatment allows insect and rodent pests to enter the crawl space, along with cold winter air that can make your floors frigid. But no worries, an air, and water seal is certain, thanks to the heavy-duty weatherstripping that comes with each EverLast door.
The couple and the family are so glad to have a healthy crawl space that they know no longer have to worry about!
This home's crawl space started getting worse and worse in the later months of this summer. The crawl space seemed to be staying wet, critters were wandering in and out, the homeowners were dealing with bad allergies, and they were just ready to permanently fix all of their problems.
They called us and were happy with our suggestions, so we got right to work!
Our crew installed:
CleanSpace Drainage Matting:The raised dimples on this matting is to help trapped water under the liner get to the designated drain
CleanSpace Liner: The CleanSpace Liner is a vapor barrier, meaning it will stop moisture from leaving the dirt ground and prevent mold from growing
SaniDry Dehumidifier: This powerful dehumidifier is mess-free and can lower your relative humidity in your crawl space to 55% or under! Most indoor allergens, such as mold spores and dust mites thrive in environments over 60% RH
EverLast Crawl Space Door: This nearly indestructible door has an air tight seal, so you won't have to worry about moisture or critters sneaking in!
This whole process is crucial to your health, especially if you have bad allergies from indoor allergens. The moisture that snuck itself inside the crawl space clung to the wood and created mold and mold spores. Remember, 50% of the air we breathe upstairs comes from the crawl space or basement.. make sure that air is clean and healthy!
This homeowner had an uneven walkway and he was worried that someone would trip and injure themselves on it. He called Frontier Foundation & Crawl Space Repair for a free estimate with no obligation. Our design specialist recommended PolyLevel to lift and stabilize the concrete, following up with NexusPro to seal the cracks. Now the homeowner has a level walkway with sealed cracks that offer safety for guests when they visit this home.
Since the first heavy rainfall after moving in, this Hohenwalk couple noticed their crawl space getting damp, but didn't think much about it. Fast forward a few years and they have major moisture issues. Mold growth began and they were worried about their health!
After seeing our products on our website, they decided to call for a FREE inspection.
Our inspector discussed solutions and products with the couple and they agreed that encapsulating their crawl space and installing a dehumidifier was best for their health and their home's structural foundation.
Products Installed:
Drainage Matting- Crawl space liners rest directly on the crawl space floor. If your crawl space is flooding, water can be trapped underneath, never making it to your perimeter drain. The raised dimples on our CleanSpace Drainage Matting gives the water flooding into your crawl space a channel underneath your crawl space liner.
CleanSpace Liner- 20mil thick, 7-layer polyethylene composition, with polyester cord reinforcement.
EverLast Crawl Space Door- This durable door made of 1/2 PVC plastic has an airtight seal. It is nearly indestrutible so you will never have to worry about it rusting your molding away.
The couple now has a dry and healthy crawl space and could not be happier!
