Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Leesburg Virginia Crawl Space Waterproofing

These homeowners in Leesburg Virginia had a stone foundation and a crawl space with unwanted water. The existing sump pump setup was not properly designed to discharge the unwanted water and keep the space as dry as the homeowner would like. Our certified home performance sales pro, Jason, visited and performed a free estimate to design a project to give the homeowner a result they were looking for. A smart drain pipe was installed along the base of the walls underground to collect water coming inside and deliver it to the newly installed sump pump with battery installed. Terra Block moisture barrier was placed across the dirt floor before having Clean Space vapor barrier installed overtop and up the sides of the crawl space walls. Spray Foam insulation was used to seal in the Clean Space. Finally a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was installed to draw any additional moisture out of the air draining it into the sump pump for discharge out of the home. This crawl space will now be dry and have healthier quality air all of which will make a healthier and more comfortable home for the people living in the rooms above.

Crawl Space Before

Wet dirt floors and exposed stone walls that were allowing water to come in from outside

Old Sump Pump Basin

The original sump pump was simply dropped into a hole in the floor and caused inefficient water collection

Craw Space Waterproofing

Digging out a space below the floor at the base of the foundation wall allows unwanted water to become collected by the sump pump

Crawl Space Waterproofing In Progress

Our 3 Pros Basement Systems production crew dug out a channel at the base of the walls to install a Smart Drain pipe to capture and deliver water to the sump pump
