Relative Humidity Levels
The relative humidity in the crawl space was 71%. This level allows mold to grow and creates an environment attractive to critters.
Excess Moisture
Excess moisture in the crawl space is absorbed into the insulation and causes it to fall out of place.
Water Intrusion
Efflorescence was seen on the foundation wall where water had traveled through the foundation block.
Standing Water

Drainage Matting Installation
The crew installs drainage matting underneath the CleanSpace to allow moisture to move towards the sump pump.
Full Encapsulation
The finished encapsulation features the white CleanSpace covering the floor, walls, and piers of the crawl space. The liner prevents moisture from entering the space through the ground and walls.
TripleSafe Sump Pump
