DryZone, LLC Before & After Photos

Most older homes that have sump pumps installed in the basement need updated equipment. The old pumps are either broken or aren't strong enough. Many times the hole itself isn't large enough and actually contributes to the sump pump getting over used. DryZone uses a much larger sump pit than the average home currently has. The container is sealed so the smells and water vapor won't escape. Since the container is bigger, the pump takes longer to turn on and pumps out more water in one cycle. Short cycling, when the pump turns on and off in a small amount of time, will destroy a sump pump.

One of the support beams had begun to crack under the pressure of the house it was supporting. To fix this a new steel girder was installed and SmartJacks where placed underneath to help distribute the pressure on the girder. 

This musty crawl space was taken from complete disarray to a beautiful space by DryZone.

Our homes here on Delmarva can be a great place to trap moisture.  Your crawlspace is part of your home and we need to treat it as such.  DryZone will cover all of the dirt under your home and keep the unconditioned air on the outside of the home, while keeping the living space dry as a bone.  This Laurel, DE homeowner found mold and mildew in the home and had DryZone come out and install CleanSpace with Drainage Matting in her crawlspace.  DryZone keeps all homes in Sussex County, Delaware dry including Seaford, Bridgeville, Rehoboth Beach and Bethany Beach.

This crawl space didn't have a lot of standing water, but there was just enough to make the overall humidity higher than it should have been. When the moisture in the air gets high enough mold and fungus can grow. This mold can make the whole house stinky. People will scrub every surface, wash linens, and spray air fresheners just to have the smell return. A good strong vapor barrier and dehumidifier system will dry the air in the crawl space and get rid of those nasty smells.
