Franklin, LA Basement Waterproofing & Crawl Space Repair Company

In Franklin, LA, a homeowner faced a pressing issue: moisture seeping into their basement walls. This wasn't just a small inconvenience; it compromised the usability and safety of their home. Recognizing the potential for mold growth and structural damage, the homeowners reached out to us at Midsouth Crawlspace Solutions, hoping for a reliable, long-term fix. Our process began with the homeowners connecting with our Customer Care Specialist to schedule a thorough home inspection. A System Design Specialist visited the property, conducted a comprehensive evaluation, and diagnosed the problem. To effectively tackle the moisture issue, we decided on a combination of our CleanSpace, WaterGuard, and TripleSafe Sump Pump systems. The production team, led by our expert foreman and seasoned installers, began by addressing the compromised walls. First, they installed the CleanSpace system, an innovative encapsulation system that transformed the damp space into a barely recognizable, clean environment, resistant to mold growth. Alongside, the WaterGuard system was strategically placed below the basement floor to capture and redirect the water seepage into the new drainage pathway. This setup functioned cohesively with our TripleSafe Sump Pump, ensuring all accumulated moisture was efficiently pumped away from the foundation, sparing the basement from future flooding concerns. Ultimately, the successful integration of CleanSpace, WaterGuard, and the TripleSafe system left the Franklin homeowner with a basement that was dry, secure, and suitable for both storage and living space. This detailed approach not only resolved their current issue but fortified their home against future moisture-related concerns, delivering the peace of mind every homeowner seeks.

Recently, in Franklin, LA, we encountered a homeowner experiencing a classic sign of foundation trouble: their windows and doors were sticking, resisting opening and closing smoothly. The frustration and concern that comes with such an issue immediately struck a chord with us. Upon receiving their call, our customer care team promptly arranged for a home inspection. True to our process, a System Design Specialist from our team visited to examine the foundation closely, confirming that ground movement had compromised the home's stability. Our proposed solution was the installation of Helical Piers - a reliable and lasting remedy for foundation settlement issues. Helical Piers are designed to stabilize and lift the foundation by being drilled deep into the ground until they reach stable soil, thus ensuring the foundation's integrity and preventing future issues. The process was sophisticated yet non-intrusive. Our production team, comprising a foreman and skilled installers, arrived prepared for the task. With precision and care, they installed the Helical Piers, effectively addressing the root cause of the sticking windows and doors. Their expertise came to the fore as they worked diligently, minimizing disruption to the homeowner's daily life. In the end, the results spoke for themselves. The windows and doors functioned seamlessly, a clear indication of the problem's resolution. But more importantly, the homeowner was left with peace of mind, knowing their home’s foundation was now firmly secure. It was a perfect reflection of our commitment to providing a remarkable customer experience, paired with a reliable and long-lasting fix to their home's foundation problem.

When these homeowners reached out to us, they originally only wanted a regular vapor barrier installed. The moisture in their crawlspace had began to cause problems throughout the home and their friends all recommended they have a vapor barrier installed. The design specialist that we sent out their home was able to explain to them that this wasn't going to be enough for their home. Our teams have actually ran into many homes that were suffering from moisture issues BECAUSE all they had was a simple vapor barrier. What this home really needs to be fully protected from moisture is an encapsulation. An encapsulation involves sealing off the underside of the home and installing a Cleanspace Liner. This liner is similar to a vapor barrier, but is much thicker and more durable. Many compare the Cleanspace Liner to a pool liner. This is installed along side our Crawlspace Dehumidifier and Sump Pump system. These products are both made to combat moisture and humidity. These homeowners fortunately will not have to deal with the lackluster results of standard vapor barrier. They've loved their encapsulation enough to recommend us to several of the same friends we mentioned earlier!
