Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Due to moisture coming up from the crawlspace, this home's subfloor had rotted out beneath them. The moisture buildup was also causing their hardwood floors to buckle. Sadly, these homeowners just had a bad experience with a contractor and were hesitant to trust another one. They did a bunch of research, reading reviews and testimonials and decided to call MidSouth CrawlSpace Solutions. They trusted us to not only inspect their home, but to install our waterproofing system in their crawlspace! 

As you may be able to tell from the before and after images, the previous vapor barrier that was installed in this crawl space wasn't exactly doing its job. Full of tears, covered in mud, and pulled away from the soil it was supposed to creating a barrier over, it was clear that this moisture preventing method was not going to work. After a visit from one of our design specialists, the homeowners were introduced to a much better and permanent form of protection - the encapsulation system. This includes a crawl space dehumidifier, a sump pump system, and a massive barrier upgrade with our CleanSpace Liner!

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.

In Natchez, MS, the homeowners called us to protect and preserve their flooring by fixing a persistent moisture problem in their crawl space. Notice in the before photo how excess moisture led to the risk of structural damage. We tackled the issue with expertly-installed Drainage Matting, which enhances water redirection, paired with our durable CleanSpace® encapsulation system. To ensure uncompromised safety, we also installed a robust TripleSafe™ Sump Pump, offering three levels of protection against water intrusion. As you can see, the finished solution offers long-lasting floor safety and peace of mind.
