Job Stories

A homeowner in Delmar, MD recognized that her crawl space needed help but only had a small budget to work with. Unsure of what to do or how to resolve the problems, the homeowner turned to the experts at DryZone. Immediately, the DryZone team recommended that the space have a SaniDry Sedona paired with a condensate pump added and have the vents blocked from outside, unconditioned air. In addition, the DryZone team recommended at least putting down drainage matting, a downspout extension with LawnScape Outlet, and a Turtl to the crawl space entrance. The homeowner agreed to all the recommendations and the DryZone team got straight to work. Before installing new products, the team removed all debris and regraded the ground for maximum drainage. The homeowner was very thankful for the DryZone team's attention to detail and compassion for her budget. 

The homeowners in Fruitland, MD has a crawl space with an abundance of debris and falling insulation. Enough was enough for these homeowners and they decided to call DryZone. DryZone came out to their property for a free inspection to take a look at the problem. We gave a suggestion to the homeowners to allow DryZone to remove the debris and install a drainage mat, interior wall liner, and a dehumidifier to control the flow of water in the crawl space. The homeowners were pleased with the suggestions and went forward with the plan.  After DryZone installed the products, the homeowners no longer had to worry about damage in their crawl space due to water or mold.

The crawl space in Fruitland, MD had water flowing through the concrete walls and into the basement. The homeowners were concerned about the possible damage the water could do to the crawl space. Once water starts to flow through the walls of the crawl space, mold will start to form, which causes a musty smell. This smell tends to rise up into the home but if a dehumidifier is installed then this eliminates the moisture that causes humidity.  DryZone installed the water drainage matting, interior wall liner, and SaniDry dehumidifier to keep the moisture under control and the water damage OUT!  Afte the job was completed, the homeowners were happy and worry free because they knew their crawl space was in the best condition possible.

Why is moisture a problem for your crawl space? The answer is simple, moisture creates mold. If mold is growing on the wood in the crawl space, you have a problem. If it's a white mold, it's usually a surface mold, but this is a sign that humidity levels are extremely high in the crawl space.  If there is black or brown mold in your crawl space, structural damage is occurring, which means contacting DryZone is an immediate action! DryZone will take care of the mold issue and encapsulate the crawl space and all the problems with the crawl space will be gone. 

The crawl space encapsulation is important for homeowners to have installed because it keeps the crawl space dry, which ultimately prevents mold and wood rot.

No matter what size the crawl space is, cold air and moisture can enter and affect the home. In the year they owned it, they noticed cold floors and high energy bills and knew they wanted their crawl space conditioned and done the right way.  Since the HVAC system was under the home, the only reason he would enter the crawl space was to change filters. After changing the filter, he noticed just how messy and damp the underneath of his home was.  DryZone came to the home to do a thorough inspection and knew exactly what his home needed to be properly repaired. Not only would the crawl space be much cleaner to crawl through for filter changes, but would keep out cold air and moisture that brought their energy bills through the roof!
