Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Repair in Whites Creek, TN

This customer in Whites Creek, TN, called Frontier due to moisture issues in their crawl space. To fix 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 any other air leaks with SilverGlo panels and spray foam insulation.

Humidity Levels

Checking the humidity levels in the crawl space during the inspection.

Mold Issues

Mold is starting to grow in this crawl space due to the high humidity levels. If not addressed, it will continue to grow and rot the wood. If it starts rotting the wood, structural damage will start to occur.

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.

Moisture damage

Muddy old vapor barrier, wet spots, and water lines on the concrete block wall are all clear indications of moisture damage in this crawl space.

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.

Air Leaks Sealed

All air leaks are sealed with spray foam insulation. This prevents all outside air from entering the crawl space.

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.

Project Complete

The crawl space is properly sealed and the project is complete. Sealing your crawl space stops the cycle of cold, humidity, and moisture entering from the outside air.
