Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Turn your musty, dirty crawl space into a moisture-free, energy-efficient space that can be used for extra storage without damaging your belongings.

The relative humidity in this crawl space was 80%! That's way to high! Controlling this space was important to the family to protect the plumbing under the house but also a healthier environment in the home above.

The inside inspection revealed groundwater seepage, mold, open vents, and pests. The insulation was dirty, heavy from the moisture, and falling down. It was doing more harm than good for the floor above.

Encapsulating this space was the answer to water, pest, insulation, allergies, and wood rot concerns.

These homeowners in Antioch Tennessee wanted to utilize their tall crawl space for extra storage but always had issues with flooding, frustrated they reached out to Frontier Basement Systems for a solution.  A design specialist was sent to their home to address their concerns, together it was decided a full encapsulation of their crawl space was the right solution for this home.

Most crawl space doors are made from metal or wood that rot, rust, and fall apart over time. Our crawl space entry doors are made from a non-organic plastic that will not rust, rot, or deteriorate, bringing the best protection to your home from humidity, moisture, and unwanted pests from entering your home!

This home in Antioch had a serious excessive moisture problem in their crawl space. It was causing their wood in their crawl space to have a level of almost 50% moisture content. At 20% it means the wood is border-line decay and at 28% or above it is accompanied by decay damage. So, this crawl space was in dire need of our help! We did a full encapsulation and also added our EverLast Crawl Space Door. 

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.

Our EverLast Doors are made from ½-in.-thick PVC plastic that is just about indestructible. Unlike wood crawl space doors, EverLast doors will never warp, crack, shrink or require maintenance or painting. An air and water seal is certain, thanks to the heavy-duty weatherstripping that comes with each door!

We love when customers want to have the EverLast Door installed because it is the cherry on top of the encapsulation!
