Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A dirt crawl space under a home is a very bad idea. The earth has very high humidity in the soil. This water vapor moves easily into the crawl space and upwards into the house environment.  The CleanSpace Liner is used to isolate the home from the earth completely and permanently. The liner is a heavy 20-mil thick material similar to a pool liner.

The CleanSpace liner is carefully cut and installed. The workers will usually be working in their socks to keep the liner clean. That's how clean your crawl space will be !!

These homeowners in Roe wanted their newly purchased home to stay dry and clean, so they called CrawlSpace Solutions of Arkansas. Our Design Specialist, Michael, helped them decide our dimpled Drainage Matting, the TripleSafe Sump Pump, and the SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. These products helped make this whole home cleaner, drier, and healthier!

The most basic way to view it is that crawl space encapsulation turns your crawl space into a waterproof capsule. First, a waterproof vapor barrier is installed. This vapor barrier is usually made from heavy-duty plastics, laminates, and resins. Then the vents are sealed shut and the vapor barrier is sealed into place. This creates a clean, dry crawl space that protects against moisture, mold, pests, and other issues that can impact your home from your crawl space. So, why would you want to seal up your crawl space with an encapsulation?

Improved Air Quality – Vented crawl spaces routinely harbor mold, bacteria, and other nasties that can negatively impact your indoor air quality. Encapsulating seals all of that out so you can breathe easier.

Lower Utility Bills – Encapsulating your crawl space can reduce your energy bills by up to 20%. That’s some major cabbage!

Reduce Risk of Expensive Repairs – Moisture in the crawl space causes wood to rot–in the worst place to have rotting wood, where the supports for your house are! Moisture from crawl spaces can also cause floors to buckle. Both of these scenarios result in seriously expensive repairs to maintain the structural integrity of your home.

The over abundance of moisture in this crawl space was tamed by Crawl Space Solutions of Arkansas! For this customer's home our crew installed a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, TripleSafe sump pump, and a SaniDry Sedona, one of the world's most efficient high-performance dehumidifier and filtration systems.

Each of these products performs a special duty from preventing mold growth to eliminating musty odors from your crawlspace!

The dimples in the drainage matting allow better conductivity for water to get to the perimeter drainage or sump pump located in the lowest spot of the crawlspace.
