Before & After Photos

Bill wanted to get his crawl space encapsulated but was not sure what to expect. He called us to get an estimate and liked what we had to say. We installed Drainage Matting, CleanSpace Crawl Space Vapor Barrier, the TripleSafe sump pump and the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. The matting had raised dimples in it so that if water did get in, there would be channels for it to flow through and could be directed to the sump pump. The vapor barrier  is just want it sounds like, it keeps pests, humidity, and water vapor out of the crawl space to keep it dry. The liner also has an additive that prevents mold growth so the home and structure is protected. The TripleSafe has three layers of protection (2 pumps and a back up battery) to keep the area dry even in cases of a pump failure or a power outage. Lastly as an added protection we  installed the SaniDry Sedona. This dehumidifier blows dry air throughout the space to make sure it remains dry (the collected water is sent to the sump pump to be expelled out of the home) and it filters the air so you can breathe easy!

Wade needed his crawl space encapsulated so he called our team. So our team installed CleanSpace, an uninterrupted vapor barrier that is applied to the walls and floor of your crawl space. It restricts all moisture, outside air, and pests from entering your crawl space. This system creates an energy-efficient crawl space, and it also gives your crawl space a clean finish.

This family called us because they had water occasionally coming in their crawl space which was causing mold to grow and they had a dirt floor allowing critters and outside air in. We all know mold is not something that should be taken lightly as it can cause health issues and can tremendously affect the resale value of your home. We don't put dirt floors in basements so why does having a dirt floor in your crawl space sound okay? We sent a system design specialist out to the home to see what could be done and offer the best solution to the problem.

The homeowner and system design specialist agreed that installing our CleanSpace system would be the best answer. CleanSpace ensures that the crawl space will be isolated from the earth so no critters, air or ground water can evaporate into the atmosphere of the space. It's also made of a very thick plastic so there is no worrying about it tearing or not holding up. The liner is also made with an antimicrobial additive that prevents the growth of mold. 

This family opted to encapsulate their entire crawl space to prevent the spread of mold caused by standing water. Cold, unsealed crawlspaces also allow that cold air to travel to the living space above, which is why your floors are so cold. We also insulated the floors with TerraBlock Crawl Space Floor Insulation which can be installed on uneven surfaces and prevents moisture from entering your crawl space. We also insulated the rim joists which are a common entry point for cold, moist outside air. 

Troy noticed a musty smell wafting through the vents in his home and wasn't sure where it was coming from. After searching the whole house for the source, he wound up in a moist, moldy crawl space. He was unsure how to fix the issue himself, so he researched his options and called Ayers for help. Our specialists stopped by his house to evaluate the space and recommended installing the CleanSpace vapor barrier. CleanSpace is lined with antimicrobial material to eliminate moisture, reduce mold-growth, and it's designed to withstand walking and crawling. Troy can't believe his nose!
