Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Our goal with any home project is to leave a home in better condition than it was in before we did work.  That includes the outside.  We often have to dig into a yard to lay a discharge line for sump pumps for basement or crawl space waterproofing jobs like this one.  

The crawl spaces of this Mount Vernon home had enough humidity in each of them that water dripped from the mold and mildewed insulation and joists. Several contractors had tried to help over the years to make this area beneath the home better. 

To help these homeowners, our team removed the old insulation and vapor barrier. We also had to remove some dead wildlife, and clean the HVAC equipment fully to rid it of mold. We encapsulated the duct work and the crawl space, installing TerraBlock insulation and a thick 20 mil. CleanSpace vapor barrier. The results were a clean, healthy, and safe crawl space for these homeowners.

These homeowners in Fredericksburg, VA had a dirt crawl space under their home. We installed our CleanSpace encapsulation system, and applied spray foam insulation to make sure that this homeowner never has any crawl space issues again.

This Alexandria, VA home was suffering from cold floors and a musty odor emanating from the crawlspace. This was having a serious negative impact on the comfort level of the home. When our sales professional Stephan went out to the property to perform a full home inspection, he determined that the best course of action to end their discomfort would be to waterproof and insulate the crawlspace. Stephan explained to the homeowners that the primary cause of their discomfort was the uninsulated crawlspace cooling down the floors in the rooms above and the lack of waterproofing allowing mold to build up which was causing the smell. After the homeowners agreed to Stephan's solution our service crews went out to get to work on the home. The crews started by clearing out all the debris in the crawlspace to create an even work surface and to turn the crawlspace into a useable space. Then they began laying down TerraBlock floor insulation to help the crawlspace maintain an even temperature. After that, they installed SilverGlo rigid foam insulation on the walls to prevent the crawlspace from making the floors cold. Finally, the crew installed CleanSpace covering over the floors to prevent any moisture build-up that could lead to mold growth or water damage.

This Stafford, VA home was suffering from an unpleasant odor permeating throughout the house and rooms above the crawlspace being too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter. This was having a serious negative impact on the comfort level of the home. Our service professional Brent went out to the property to take a look and find the best possible solution to the homeowner’s issues. After completing the inspection Brent explained to the homeowners that the primary cause of their discomfort was a lack of waterproofing in the crawlspace that was allowing mold growth and water damage to occur. He determined that the best course of action to end their discomfort would be to install the CleanSpace insulation and waterproofing system to prevent any chance of further mold growth or water damage and keep the home more comfortable. After the homeowners agreed to Brent's solution our service crews went out to get to work on the home. The crews started by removing the old ineffective insulation. Then they installed special TerraBlock floor insulation that is protected from water damage and does not support the growth of mold, mildew, or rot. After that, they installed SilverGlo rigid foam insulation on the walls to keep the crawlspace and the rooms above comfortable year-round. Finally, the crew installed the CleanSpace covering on the floor to create a vapor-tight barrier that maximizes leak protection and minimizes the opportunity for mold growth and water damage.
