Job Stories

This crawl space in Milford, DE was already encapsulated and unfortunately, the space still flooded. The flooding caused the water pump to burn up and the homeowners were in complete panic mode. The homeowners immediately turned to DryZone for help. After inspecting the crawl space, DryZone made recommendations accordingly to help safeguard the space and the home. The owners were eager to see the finished product so DryZone got right to work. The first order of business was to remove all the standing water and old liner. Once all the remaining debris was removed, DryZone dug a trench to house the HydroLink Drainage System that will go around the perimeter of the entire crawl. The HydroLink will help ensure water stays out of the space. The Hydrolink is then covered and secured. Before the CleaenSpace Technology liner is installed to full encapsulate the crawl space, the ground is regraded and drainage matting is installed. This provides an additional barrier from water. The CleanSpace Technology is then installed on the floors, walls, and piers, leaving the space looking and feeling brand new! The homeowners were so glad they called DryZone and thoroughly impressed with the work provided by Luis and Omar. Call DryZone today for your FREE inspection and estimate!

What an incredible success story about a crawl space in Milford, DE. Worried about the moisture problem, this homeowner called the DryZone experts. The homeowner explained to DryZone that he was afraid the moisture in his crawl space would ultimately affect his HVAC system. DryZone was the best team to resolve the issue. The first order of business was to remove all the moisture in the space. Once the water was removed, the insulation was pulled out. The debris was removed, the ground was regraded and all the vents were blocked off from the inside of the crawl space. Before laying the CleanSpace Technology, drainage matting was installed for an added layer of protection against any groundwater seepage. The DryZone team then wrapped the entire space with CleanSpace including the piers. The final order of business was installing the EverLast door for maximum protection from outside elements.

These homeowners knew that their crawl space was bad. The odors and standing water were a clear message to them that they had a problem on their hands, they just didn't know what to do about it. One day, a conversation with their neighbor helped them see clearly what they should do. Their neighbor had been struggling with similar issues but called DryZone. The difference that DryZone had made in the neighbor's crawl space was exactly what these homeowners were looking for. A call to DryZone was all it took to get a free crawl space inspection. This inspection revealed the full truth about the impact that this crawl space was having on their home. The inspector from DryZone encountered VERY high humidity levels, both in the air and in the wood of the home. The exterior humidity on that day was 74% while the crawl space humidity was nearly 81%. But that isn't the worst of the story. Continuous high humidity in the air was impacting the wood joist which help up the home. The wood humidity read a shocking 29.1%! This is double what it should be! Thankfully, DryZone had the right solution at just the right time. The HydroLink Drainage system in tandem with the TripleSafe Sump Pump will control that standing water for the homeowners for years to come - even during storms! The TripleSafe provides efficient water removal during normal water incursion, while the additional pump kicks in during heavy rainfall events.  CleanSpace with Drainage Matting, along with blocking the vents and of course, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier will keep the air, and the wood, nice and dry.   These homeowners are enjoying a much improved living environment. High humidity can damage homes and health and we are glad that they had a good neighbor to show them the best solution was a call to DryZone. 

This homeowner in Georgetown, DE called DryZone to finally fix their front porch area made of concrete. After tripping several times, they wanted an immediate fix to their issue.  With our product PolyLevel, we were able to lift the concrete back to its original location, safe for all!

High moisture content in his crawlspace led this Georgetown homeowner to DryZone. After wrapping the area in CleanSpace, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was added to keep the air dry. For any other added moisture problems, a TripleSafe sump pump was installed to remove any water that comes in. 

Standing water and a leaking crawl space entrance made this crawl space a constant pond. Over time, it seemed the ground was never dry and the brick foundation always had water stains. This homeowner needed a solution to keep their crawl space dry and block any leaking water from affecting their foundation in the future.  A crawl space encapsulation from DryZone seals the crawl space away from the outside and protects the wooden floorboards underneath. The water gets drained into a sump pump and forced far away from the foundation to ensure it stays leak-free. 

This Georgetown Homeowner is renovating their basement. They currently have cracks in the foundation and active water flow. They called us to come in and correct the issues prior to finishing their basement.

This homeowner is looking to remodel their home, but they have uneven floors that are keeping them from doing so. We needed to go in and place support beams and jacks on the right side of the home to correct the issue. 

This homeowner gave us a call because they noticed the basement wall has cracks in various spots with active water flow. They were taking a look throughout the basement because they were in the early stages of planning to finish the basement. They did not want to get any further before correcting the water issue first.   Our team went out to take a look and recommended using Flexispan to fill and seal the cracks as well as adding our cleanspace wall system to the previously installed waterguard. All of these products will ensure that the homeowner can move onto finishing their basement with no worries of water entering the space again.

This homeowner reached out to us with heavy concern for their rental property. Their main concern is with the stability of the flooring and the terrible mess in the crawlspace. We went out to take a look and after some conversation with the owner, we decided it would be best to complete the restoration of the home and crawlspace in two parts.   Part one would be removing all of the debris, batt insulation, and pump all over the water out of the crawlspace. Once done with this, we would move onto part two, which would include the installation of SmartJack supports, Rim Joist / Still Plate replacement, add supplemental / sister Floor Joist and add a replacement Girder.   After completion of the entire project, the owner will no longer have to worry about an unhealthy crawlspace and an unstable home for renters.
