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

This customer in Hopkinsville, KY, called Frontier due to moisture and mold issues in their crawl space. To start the project, we cleaned out all the debris and treated the mold with Soda Blasting. To fix the moisture issues, we completed a crawl space encapsulation. This process began with the installation of our drainage matting, a CleanSpace liner, and the installation of our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier.

The Start of Wood Rot

High humidity and moisture in your crawl space can wreak havoc on your crawl space and the rest of your home. Moisture often leads to mold growth, ultimately resulting in wood rot and other issues. Wood rot can be particularly hazardous because it compromises the structural integrity of your home.

Water Damage

Water damage is visible in this photo, as evidenced by the water lines on the concrete block wall, where water is seeping through.

Mold Growth

Mold in your crawl space can have a number of negative effects on your entire home. Not only can mold in your crawl space lead to wood rot, resulting in structural damage, but it also impacts your indoor air quality, leading to poor health outcomes for you and your family.

Humidity Levels

Humidity levels are really high in this crawl space; these levels are a perfect breeding ground for mold.

Drainage Matting Installed

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

CleanSpace Vapor Barrier

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.

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.

SaniDry™ Sedona Dehumidifier

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.
