Before & After Photos

Moisture was entering a crawlspace in Springfield, IL, and the support blocks were failing. To solve these issues, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was first installed. This will isolate the crawlspace from the ground. It also controls water, humidity, outside air infiltration, and heat loss. The white finish will brighten the crawlspace and make it easier to see inside. Additionally, the SmartJack System was installed. This will stabilize the beams and floor joists in the crawlspace and lift the floor above it back toward its original elevation. Floor bounce caused by weakened joists or excessive spans will also be reduced. Thanks to these systems, this crawlspace will remain dry and stable for years to come!

A crawlspace in Springfield, Illinois, was leaking cold air and moisture up into the home it was supporting. To remedy this issue, Woods installed the CleanSpace System. This system seals the earth from the home above it with a highly durable tarp. It is inorganic and moisture proof, ensuring protection against insects, rot, and mold. Thanks to this install, the crawlspace will remain dry for many years to come.

Our crawlspace encapsulation system securely seals the crawlspace to improve indoor air quality, keep floors warmer, and eliminate excess moisture that leads to mold growth. This long-lasting, one-time installation provides reliable protection. The system fully encapsulates the crawlspace and includes integrated drainage matting to safely direct water away. Paired with durable vent covers, it blocks outside air intrusion that can introduce moisture and compromise the health of your home.

BEFORE: Moisture from water damaged the fiberglass insulation, floor joist and studs in this Springfield, Illinois crawl space.

AFTER: Woods Basement installed a crawl space vapor barrier and insulation that pays for itself with its energy-efficient benefits.

In Springfield, Illinois homeowner Jerry S. was having issues with a wet crawl space. His crawl space looked like many other homeowners, with a dirt floor letting moisture into his home. Once he noticed a smell coming into his home above, he made a call to Woods Basement Systems. He was referred to Woods by a friend that had recently had their crawl space sealed and insulated. He wanted a space that was usable for storage without worrying that his items would get wet or damaged. After a free estimate from one of our system design specialists, he was greeted by our foreman Michael R. who sealed and insulated the space in just one day. The Woods Basement Systems team installed a vapor barrier liner on the floors and walls of the space called Clean Space. If any water were to get into space it would be pumped out by our SmartSump system. Homeowner Jerry was happy with the work done in the space and was ready to use the new storage area in his home.
