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

This customer in Clarksville, TN, called Frontier due to moisture issues in their crawl space. To fix the moisture issues, we completed a crawl space encapsulation. This included removing all the moisture-soaked debris, installing Drainage matting, CleanSpace liner, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. We also sealed the crawl space vents and any other air leaks with SilverGlo panels and spray foam insulation.

Crawl Space During Inspection

Moisture, mold and falling, failing insulation are problems in this crawl space, which hasn't been properly sealed. The encapsulation treatment totally separates and protects the crawl space interior from outdoor conditions, keeping the space clean and dry.

Checking Moisture and Humidity Levels

Moisture levels in this crawl space are very high. This is the perfect environment for mold growth, which will lead to wood rot and structural damage.

Water Damage

Water lines can be seen on the concrete block wall and are pooling on the ground. If this issue is not addressed, real damage can be done to the structure.

Debris Removed

All the debris is removed from the crawl space. Now we can start installing the waterproofing products.

Drainage Matting Installed

This dimpled plastic sheet material promotes good drainage over the entire crawl space floor.

Piers Wrapped

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

Vents Sealed

Vents are sealed with SilverGlo panels. Sealing your crawl space vents stops the cycle of cold, humidity, and moisture entering from the outside air.

CleanSpace Liner

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.

The 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.

Crawl Space Sealed

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.
