Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Encapsulation in Goodlettsville, TN

This customer in Goodlettsville, TN, called Frontier due to moisture issues in their crawl space. To mitigate the moisture issues, we completed a complete crawl space encapsulation. This began with cleaning out all the debris, adding our StarPipe crawl space drainage system, installing drainage matting, a CleanSpace liner, a TripleSafe sump pump, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. We finished this project by installing an IceGuard and LawnScape drainage system and a new EverLast crawl space door.

Crawl Space During Inspection

Moisture, mold and falling, failing insulation are problems in this crawl space, which hasn't been properly sealed.

StarPipe™

StarPipe™ is a custom-engineered drainage system for crawlspaces/basements. StarPipe's™ custom design has slots on each side, providing a drainage track on the bottom. StarPipe's™ unique star shape holds the fabric sleeve in place to prevent dirt from entering drainage slots.

CleanSpace Installed

One key ingredient in our encapsulation system is the CleanSpace® vapor barrier, a super-durable 20-mil plastic sheet designed to permanently prevent moisture, outside air, and pests from entering your crawl space.

Piers Wrapped

Piers are wrapped in CleanSpace® poly to create a continuous air and moisture barrier.

Spray Foam Insulation

Spray Foam insulation is used to seal air leaks around the water heater, totally separating the crawl space from the dirt below.

SilverGlow Panels

Sealing your crawl space vents stops the cycle of cold, humidity, and moisture entering from the outside air.

Sealing Air Leaks

Crawl space sealing and insulation will help you avoid unnecessary repairs, create a healthier living space, and save money on your utility bills. And once you've encapsulated your crawl space with a vapor barrier, you've gained valuable storage space in your home.

TripleSafe Sump Pump

A TripleSafe® Sump Pump System (shown here), combined with a SaniDry® dehumidifier, represents the ultimate in crawl space waterproofing and humidity control.

Sanidry Sedona

The Sedona easily fits in small crawl spaces, yet has a powerful blower to effectively dry large crawl spaces. Mold and mildew are common in crawl spaces, but the Sedona keeps the relative humidity below 55%, so mold won't stand a chance. As a high-efficiency dehumidifier, the Sedona removes more moisture (100 pints per day) for less electricity cost than conventional models.
