Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Repair in Clarksville, TN

Deandre in Clarksville, TN, reached out to Frontier after significant flooding left more than 36 inches of standing water in the crawl space. The inspection revealed 75% humidity, visible mold growth, and early garage foundation settlement caused by soil washout. Frontier installed helical piers to stabilize the garage and fully encapsulated the crawl space with a dehumidifier to restore a dry, controlled environment.

Relative Humidity (RH)

The relative humidity in the crawl space was 73%. Mold growth is rampant at this level of humidity.

Moisture Problems

The insulation is falling from the ceiling due to high moisture. The moisture encourages mold growth and fails to keep floors warm.

Mold Growth

The moisture content in the floor joists of this home was over 20%. Water is dripping from this floor joist and mold is abundant.

Lifting the Garage

The foundation team needed to jackhammer the driveway to create space for the helical pier. Our crews are not deterred by the cold days.

Helical Pier

This helical pier is installed and supports the weight of the garage. The hole will be filled with concrete to minimize the appearance of the work done.

Ground Moisture

After removing the old vapor barrier, one can see how wet the ground is beneath this home.

Drainage Matting and Wrapping Piers

In this home, drainage matting was installed to protect the liner from being punctured by rocks and uneven ground beneath it. Each pier was wrapped separately, and the floor liner was carefully sealed to the piers to create a tight, continuous barrier and the strongest possible seal.
