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

This customer in Franklin, TN, called Frontier due to moisture issues in their crawl space. To mitigate the moisture issues, we completed a crawl space encapsulation. This included installing Drainage matting, CleanSpace liner, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. We also sealed the crawl space vents and other air leaks with SilverGlo panels and spray foam insulation. Now they have a clean and dry crawl space.

Moisture Issues

Water lines can be seen at the bottom of the concrete block wall, meaning water is seeping out through the walls.

Humidity Levels

Checking moisture and humidity levels in the crawl space.

Mold Issues

Mold is starting to grow on the wood floor joists; if not addressed, it will continue to grow and eventually cause structural damage to this crawl space.

Debris Removed

Before the project begins, we clean out all the debris to create a clear space for installing our waterproofing products.

Drainage Matting Installed

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

Piers Wrapped with CleanSpace

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

Sealing Crawl Space Vents

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

Sealing Air Leaks

All air leaks in the crawl space are sealed off to prevent outside air from entering.

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.

CleanSpace Fully 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.
