As you can see from the photos there was a lot of water in this crawl space. The homeowners were unable to sell their home due to standing water in their crawl space and needed to get this repaired. They contacted us and it was decided that a full encapsulation was the right solution for their home. The white vapor barrier you can see is CleanSpace and is 20 mil thick. This is designed to keep water and moisture out of a crawl space.
CleanSpace vapor barrier is installed to seal the crawl space from outside air. This includes any structural pillars in the crawl space. This prevents humidity and musty smells in the crawl space.
This customer in Tuscumbia, AL noticed they had moisture in their crawl space. To address the issue before more damage could be caused, we came out and encapsulated the crawl space. After we cleaned out all the debris, we removed the wet insulation from the rim joists and started the encapsulation process. This included adding drainage matting, CleanSpace, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to pull any moisture from the air.
This customer in Tuscumbia, AL had moisture and mold issues inside their crawl space. They called Frontier out to mitigate the situation. They decided on a partial encapsulation. This included cleaning the old wet insulation out as well as all other debris in the crawl space. After that we installed Drainage matting on all the crawl space flooring, followed by CleanSpace on the floors, and walls, and wrapped around the piers. After that was installed we added a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to pull excess moisture from the air.
This Tennessee family had complaints of a leaking and moisture filled crawl space. The homeowner had said that she had not seen any mold, but her family did have to deal with allergies regularly. What some people don't know is if the humidity level is above 50% in your crawl space, it is the perfect place for mold and dust mites to thrive.
They had wanted to live here quite a few more years and wanted to prevent any mold or foundation damage, so they called us to set up a free inspection and check it out.
They decided to go with the recommended full encapsulation. We installed CleanSpace Drainage Matting to be a channel for the water to flow to the pump, CleanSpace Moisture Barrier Liner to make sure none of the moisture in the dirt ground would come through and cause mold on her wood piers. Our crew also installed the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to keep the level below 50% and the reliable SuperSump Plus to pump the water our of their home.
The family's crawl space is encapsulated and they can rest easier knowing they won't have to worry about mold problems down the road!
