MidSouth Crawl Space Solutions Before & After Photos

This crawl space had been left unattended to for quite some time and eventually became a mess. The air was humid, the ground was completely exposed, and insulation was falling all throughout the underside of the home. Many people wouldn't care about how messy a part of their home that no one ever sees is, but when the effects of crawl space moisture start to show themselves, it becomes hard to ignore. The homeowner's floors were starting to buckle badly, and they needed to find a solution. Our encapsulation system is designed to fight moisture from all different sources and angles, keeping the crawl space, clean and dry. With ground moisture blocked and the humidity maintained, these floors are safer than ever. Not to mention how good the crawl space looks!

Unlike your standard vapor barrier, our CleanSpace Liner doesn't miss a spot in the crawl space! Tightly secured to the floors, walls and supports of the crawl space, it plays a large part in sealing off the underside of the home from the outside, humid air. Combined with our crawl space dehumidifier, a sump pump, and an airtight door, this creates the encapsulation system, perfect for protecting a home from moisture and the dangers it brings.

Our CleanSpace Liner is a vital part of our overall encapsulation system and really goes above and beyond your standard vapor barrier. This much more durable liner isn't just thrown on top of the crawl space floor, but is wrapped around all of the walls and supports of the crawl space as well. In combination with our drainage matting, ground and wall moisture seepage can be blocked out and collected. This encapsulation was designed by one of our specialists, Scottie, and installed by our foreman, David, and his talented crew!

This home in New Iberia had a crawlspace and a basement. They were having leaks in the basement and moisture and mold in the crawlspace. Henry Bennett performed the inspection and presented our solution. We were able to fix both! Our basement waterproofing system is an inside, in-ground solution. We place a drainage pipe around the perimeter of the room to catch the leaks that come in from the walls and up from the footing. We also install wall products to not only direct the moisture to the drain, but they brighten up the whole room! The perimeter drainage line drains to the sump pump thats also installed in the ground. When the water reaches a certain level in the pump, it automatically sends it out and away from the home.  This permanently protects the home from water intrusion and provides peace of mind to the homeowners!

We were contacted because this home was experiencing some visibly dangerous mold problems. Did you know that open ventilation under the home is actually harmful to your crawl space? Our team sealed off all outside vents, treated the mold problem, and installed our waterproofing system. All of these solutions will work together to create a healthier, more energy efficient atmosphere!
