Old Door
The door to the crawl space is in need of replacement. You can see the vapor barrier that is currently in place has been moved and shifted form people coming in and out of the space. This exposes the crawl space to the ground which is one reason that the under side of these spaces have moisture problems.
Crawl Space Door
It is apparent from the inside of this crawl space that water is leaking in through the door. You can see signs that water is entering the crawl space not only through the ground but also through the door. Double Trouble!
Moisture Problems
The moisture under the home is a big problem. It is what is causing the musty smell that the homeowners are noticing. The plastic that is down isn't doing much to help prevent the water from enter the space. Creating a humid environment for mold to grow.
Crawl Space Under the Pool House
You can see the "vapor barrier" that is currently in place. It has what appears to be mold and signs that water has been sitting on top of the plastic. You can also see that the seams haven't been sealed and are exposing the wood and insulation to moisture and water.
New Crawl Space Entries
Both the pool house and the main house need new entry ways. The homeowner here opted for our Turtl because it is air and water tight, safe and secure, and attractive.
After Main House
This is a picture of the main home after all the moisture issues were address. The main home needed a CleanSpace vapor barrier, drainage matting, trench drain, a new sump pump, and a dehumidifier.
After Pool House
The pool house needed the same treatment as the main house. Their whole home's condition was the main concern. That included the pool house. Now all areas are healthy and safe.
New Sump Pumps
Both the pool house and the main house received our Smart Sump. This pump can handle up to 2,220 gallons of water. If there is ever a leak or water that is taking over the space there is an alarm that will go off so the homeowners will be able to detect a problem before it gets worse!
A Dehumidifier for Both Spaces
Both spaces received a dehumidifier to help with the moisture issues in the crawl spaces.
So Spacious and Comfortable
Your crawl space is typically not an area that you want to hang out in. But a DryZone Crawl Space is Dry, Clean, and easy to relax in!
