Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Most people are familiar with the standard metal door for their crawlspace. The Everlast door is a much better way to seal off the crawlspace entry from humid air and critters. It is made of heavy vinyl and cut on site so that it is a custom fit. You will never have to worry about the Everlast rusting or warping. Ever notice that your crawlspace door rattles in the wind? That will never happen with an Everlast door. Several large plastic coated bolts hold the door in place, so that its easily accessible for repairs to HVAC, plumbing, or other utilities found under the house. Even the door jam is built on site to ensure a tight fit.

This home had an old sheet metal door on the crawlspace entrance. It was rusted and warped and provided almost no protection from the elements. Also, the ground was sloped towards the entry and so when it rained the water would flow right towards the door. The brand new Everlast crawlspace door will stand up to the elements and never rust or warp. The new shroud and bed of stone will help to keep the rain water away from the door and out of the crawlspace.

Are you tired of stepping in a puddle of water as soon as you crawl into your crawlspace? Some of that water is probably coming in through your old metal door. A Turtl is made of heavy-duty plastic and will never warp, rust, or rot. It has a solid bottom to keep ground water from coming up into it. A Turtl is also airtight which means the nasty humid air is going to stay out of the crawl space as well.

The old 6 mil liner that gets installed after the house is built only serves to keep your knees a little cleaner. The edges are loose and that lets the moist air escape into the crawlspace. When that happens, the humidity goes up and leads to mold outbreaks. With the CleanSpace system in place, the wetness is sealed in the dirt and the air, wood, and insulation can dry out.

The Turtl is a great way to improve on a leaky crawlspace entry. The old metal door rusts and warps, the entry well will fill up with water and mud. Thankfully the Turtl is air tight and water tight. It will keep all the rain and ground water out of the crawlspace.
