Before & After Photos

Here is a look at a recent complete encapsulation we did for this homeowner in New Orleans. The after photo prominently features our CleanSpace Liner, which can be found throughout the entire crawl space, secured to the floor, walls, and supports of the crawl space. Making sure everything is properly covered with the liner is important to blocking our moisture intrusion and humidity issues. This encapsulation was planned out by our design specialist, Matt, and installed under our foreman, David, and his crew!

This homeowner reached out to us and described signs of moisture problems in his crawl space. His original plan was to have fans placed underneath his home in an attempt to dry out the area, but we've seen this solution before, and it never works. We sent out one of our design specialist to introduce him to the permanent solution he really needed - the encapsulation system. Its most noticeable feature is the CleanSpace Liner, which is lined on the floors and walls of the crawl space to separate the space from the wet ground and outside air. Also installed in the crawl space is a dehumidifier and sump pump designed with crawl spaces and efficiency in mind. It is now a much safer, drier, and cleaner space, and the moisture issues the homeowner once feared are taken care of. 

 With moisture building up in her crawlspace, this homeowner was trying to find a remedy that would get rid of it for good. Henry created a plan with our tried and true system, specific to her issues. It would treat the existing mold and prevent it from happening in the future. We also cleaned out the loose debris to install our products. We then installed the sump pump in the lowest spot of the crawlspace. Following that, we laid the drainage matting throughout and covered it with our 20 mil Liner. Lastly, we placed a dehumidifier in to regulate the humidity in the crawlspace.  

This homeowner reached out to us because of how moist and humid their home felt in the summer, and they knew it was due to their crawl space. They were hoping to get that problem under control and that doing so would help with their energy efficiency. Our talented crew was able to make all their dreams come true! By encapsulating the underside of their home, we were able to majorly decrease the humidity content. This will help protect the floors, keep the home naturally cooler, and put less stress on it to keep temperatures down. This is largely done in part by our powerful yet efficient crawl space dehumidifier. We're very happy we were able to help this homeowner!

Years of moisture problems had caused damage to this home and its floors, but our team was unable to do much of this and make sure further damage is prevented. In the after image, you can see two components that play a large part in making this happen. The underside of the home is no longer left fully exposed, now protected with our CleanSpace Barrier. This helps fight moisture from the ground, the walls and supports of the crawl space. Also seen in the image is our system of Smart Jacks. These supports are installed permanently under the home and will continue to level out and support the floors that were affected by moisture. Unseen in the image is our crawl space dehumidifier and sump pump system. These work in tandem to collect moisture from the air and ground and remove it from the crawl space. All together this makes our encapsulation system, the ultimate protective measure against moisture!
