Building additions onto a home can help expand your living space without needing to move. However, if you add on to an older home, it could cause some signs of settling due to the ground being moved. This homeowner knew they would need additional support under their home and their contractor reached out to DryZone to add some. DryZone installed helical piers underneath the footing of the home to give the addition and the original home some extra strength. Now both parts of this home have a solid foundation and stand strong!

Water, water, water in this home in Salisbury, MD. An HVAC crew member explained to this homeowner that his crawl space was full of standing water and recommended the owner call the experts at DryZone. Upon arrival, DryZone couldn't believe what they saw: massive amounts of standing water. The DryZone team wasted no time in removing the water. After the water was removed, the team removed the insulation and debris from the crawl space. Before installing the CleanSpace Technology liner, the DryZone team blocked all vents from the inside, regarded the ground, and installed a HydroLink Drainage system. The HydroLink Drainage system goes around the entire perimeter of the crawl space to ensure maximum drainage of any groundwater seepage. The team also installed a SmartSump pump and SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to further protect the space from water and moisture. CleanSpace Technology was installed throughout the whole crawl space. Outside the crawl space, the DryZone team added an exterior discharge pipe, a LawnScape outlet, and a new EverLast door for additional protection to the crawl space. The homeowner was flabbergasted! He couldn't believe that in just five days, the DryZone team was able to fully restore his crawl space. The homeowner stated, "I'm always calling DryZone and telling everyone about you!"

A homeowner in Salisbury, MD, was tackling home improvement projects one step at a time. Knowing their crawlspace was the right place to start, they did some research, saw a DryZone commercial on TV, and reached out to schedule a free inspection.    Our System Design Specialist, Jamie, conducted a thorough inspection and discovered that the humidity in the crawlspace was over 64% well above the recommended 55% benchmark.    The solution for this crawlspace encapsulation included key components like CleanSpace, an EverLast Door, and a SaniDry Sedona. The SaniDry Sedona can remove up to 100 pints of moisture per day and circulates over 300 cubic feet of dry air per minute throughout the crawlspace or basement.    Thanks to DryZone, this Salisbury, MD, homeowner can now enjoy peace of mind knowing their crawlspace is properly protected. We're proud to help safeguard another home on Delmarva!        

In the winter, floors can tend to be cold due to drafts coming into crawlspaces and basements. Instead of insulating underneath the floors, DryZone installed a 2" thick foam board to the walls and CleanSpace to the floors to prevent cold air from entering the crawlspace. Now the whole crawlspace is insulated to prevent cold floors. 

Having pipes in the crawl space is a great option to protect pipes from harsh weather. However, if your crawl space is not sealed or insulated well enough, those pipes can freeze and burst! This homeowner had an unfortunate pipe leak that flooded his crawl space, soaking the floor joists. After taking a look under his home, this Salisbury, MD homeowner determined his home needed a little TLC. DryZone removed the old, damaged vapor barrier and replaced it with CleanSpace. After sealing the entryways and adding a Turtl crawl space entry, this home was ready for any weather!

DryZone encapsulated the crawl space with a 20 mil thick CleanSpace wrap and added a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. Now the crawl space is dry and he no longer worries about moisture damage on his home!
