Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This home in Stockton, MD had a crawl space in desperate need of some TLC. The humidity levels were extremely high and the insulation was crumbling and falling. The homeowners, frantic to protect their crawl space, turned to the experts at DryZone.

DryZone was prompt in inspecting the crawl space and resolved that the space needed to be fully encapsulated with CleanSpace technology and a SaniDry Sedona be added to the space to maintain proper humidity levels (50-59%). Before encapsulating the crawl space, the DryZone team removed all insulation, debris, and water. The space was then fully encapsulated and a condensate pump was paired with the SaniDry Sedona. 

The homeowners were amazed at how the crawl space turned out due to the persistence and work ethic of the DryZone team! Yet another crawl space success story!

Helpful tip: Regrading the ground before laying the CleanSpace Technology allows for a clean, level placement of the encapsulation liner.

The homeowners in Greenbackville, VA are concerned with their moist, moldy, and damp crawl space. The last thing these homeowners want is to worry about the problems under their home. Luckily, they decided to call DryZone after they saw what a disaster their crawl space looked like. DryZone suggested encapsulating the crawl space and installing a dehumidifier, TripleSafe sump pump, water drainage mat, and interior CleanSpace liner. Now the homeowners are in perfect shape with their home and they do not have to worry about any more issues especially under their home. 

This crawl space in Greenbackville, VA is filled with insulation that is falling apart. There are several reasons why insulation does not stay on the roof of the crawl space. The number one reason is the strong amount of humidity in the crawl space. When the moisture in the air becomes too strong the insulation can not hold all of it and it begins to fall. As you see on the walls of the crawl space, there are white marks on the wall that looks like chalky powder. This white powder is sometimes confused with mold, but it is not alive. Just mineral residue. It is a sign that water is probably coming through the concrete.  

The crawl space of this Greenbackville, VA home was filled with debris. The homeowners had tried to seal off the crawl space with the plastic sheet on the floor, but its poor design made it very inefficient.
