Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Repair in Elkton, KY

A homeowner in Elkton, KY, contacted Frontier to help resolve persistent moisture levels in their crawl space. Our team began by clearing the crawl space and removing the failing vapor barrier. Next, we implemented a comprehensive moisture control solution: we laid down drainage matting, encapsulated the area with our CleanSpace liner, and sealed off the vents to prevent outside air from entering. To ensure the environment stays dry, we installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. We wrapped up the project by securing the entry with a new EverLast crawl space door.
