Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

These are two images featuring a home in Carriere, Mississippi, that one of our crews installed a crawlspace encapsulation for. The most striking feature of an encapsulation is our Cleanspace Liner, which may appear similar to the everyday vapor barrier, but quality-wise, they can't be compared. These images should help you understand what you get with a standard vapor barrier installation, and a Cleanspace installation. The vapor barrier is not covering the entire crawlspace and can be easily pulled/torn away. The replacement, our Cleanspace Liner, covers not only the entire ground, but is installed up the supports as well, making sure moisture is blocked from all angles. It gives a cleaner look as well, anyone can feel safe crawling in this space now!

In these two photos, you will find two different vapor barriers underneath the same home. The first, is a standard, flimsy barrier that obviously did not hold up very well. You'll find barriers like these under many homes, and they are unfortunately not really doing much to prevent moisture or humidity. Even with the barrier, this home was still dealing with a damp crawlspace and buckling floors. The second, is our heavy-duty 20-mil CleanSpace Liner that we installed under the home. This durable barrier lines the ground, walls, and supports and permanently separates the crawlspace from the ground. This is one part of our encapsulation system, designed to keep homes like this one, safe from moisture.

This homeowner discovered some water damage on his joists, causing needed concern for the stability of his floors. The water damage wasn't a surprise, as this crawl space had been left completely exposed and unprotected against moisture. Fortunately, our team came with the perfect solution. Our encapsulation system will cover moisture from every direction and every shape it comes in. The bright white barrier you see is our durable CleanSpace Liner, which helps separate the crawl space from the moist ground and outside air. For the humid air, our crawl space dehumidifier will continuously regulate things and keep the underside of the home at a safe level of humidity. A sump pump system is also installed, which collects water intrusion, water from the ground and from the sump pump, to be sent away from the crawl space. The floors of this home have never been safer!
