Wayne, a homeowner in Camden Wyoming, DE, began noticing musty odors rising from the crawlspace. Suspecting that high humidity was the cause he reached out to the experts at DryZone to schedule a free inspection.    Our System Design Specialist, Don, conducted a thorough inspection and discovered that the humidity level in the crawlspace was over 79% well above the recommended 55% benchmark. After reviewing the available solutions to address excess moisture, Wayne decided to move forward with the project.    The crawlspace encapsulation included the installation of CeanSpace, a SaniDry Sedona, and an EverLast Door. The SaniDry Sedona is a powerful unit capable of moving up to 100 pints of moisture per day while circulating over 300 cubic feet of dry air per minute throughout the crawlspace. The EverLast Door helps seal out outside air and is built to resist rust, rot, and wear over time.    Thanks to these solutions, Wayne can now enjoy peace of mind knowing that musty odors and moisture issues in the crawlspace are a thing of the past.

Block Vents and an EverLast Crawl Space Door will keep the outside air out. A SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier will condition the air inside this crawl space eliminating condensation. 

This nice couple in Felton, DE were aware there was a problem in their crawlspace for quite some time. They knew something was definitely wrong when they noticed their floors were colder than normal and a smelly odor was coming from just outside the crawlspace door.  With a call to DryZone, they were able to get their crawlspace looked at to see if the problem was as bad as they thought. We treated the crawlspace with Shockwave, which helps prevent mold and dilute that damp smell and also installed the CleanSpace Encapsulation system. Goodbye cold floors, stinky smells and mold!

This Felton homeowner called in and asked if DryZone had any suggestions to improve the crawlspace of her home. Due to the number or piers under her home, she wanted to be sure they were protected from moisture damage. The walls, floor, and piers were all wrapped in CleanSpace and a SaniDry dehumidifier was placed to control the humidity underneath the home. 

Pool decks can sink at a rapid pace due to water going between concrete slabs. This Felton, DE homeowner realized the tripping hazard surrounding their pool was getting worse and worse every year. With DryZone, the pool deck is not only level, but the seams are sealed to prevent water from washing away dirt underneath causing more sinking over time!

With a thin vapor barrier and lots of falling insulation, this Felton, DE home was letting in much air from outside. Because of this, the humidity levels changed constantly, causing microbial growth and inviting insects to live underneath the home. DryZone saw evidences of high humidity during the free, no obligation, inspection. To correct this, the crawl space needed to be completely sealed off from the outside with CleanSpace. After sealing, DryZone installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control the environment. 

This homeowner in Felton, DE was experiencing water in their crawl space. For this job, our team installed a Hydrolink draining system to rid the crawlspace of water. While we were in the crawlspace, we also wanted to remove any debri, and regrade the space.   Also installed was a smartsump to ensure that should water enter the crawlspace, it be removed properly. With both systems we are able to make sure that the discharge will go out the back of the home.
