Before & After Photos

When it comes to your crawlspace, protecting it from moister is very important. In this home the crawlspace was taking on large amounts of moister. Not only was moister the problem, but the crawlspace was littered with debris, trash, and an old liner.  To solve this problem, our All-Dry of the Carolinas team encapsulated the entire crawlspace.

As you can see in the before picture, the crawlspace floor is covered with dirt and it looks as if the opening in the wall might be a challenger to wrap in CleanSpace. But it is obvious in the after picture that wrapping that area wasn’t a problem for our All-Dry of the Carolinas Team!

Time after time, these homeowners tried a number of solutions to their water problem. No matter the solution, this water issue just wouldn’t abate. Just like what you see here in the “before” photo, water would spill from the walls and then dry against the floor. Once it dried fully, this is what you would see.

Now, the “after” photo shows what we’ve done to actually fix this problem. Here, along the wall, we’ve installed WaterGuard. WaterGuard is the perfect piping system that actually disappears into the floor. We lift the cement floors, install the drain system and then recover it with cement.

The owners of this Martin, Georgia basement was more than relieved to see the solution work perfectly.

This is yet another home with a basement with a roll up garage door in Martin, GA that had water seeping into it. This is another prime example of hydrostatic pressure forcing water through the walls of basements. The homeowner this property called us at All-Dry of the Carolinas where we sent out our system design specialist, Johnathan Geddie  to check out the problem. Once Jonathan got to the home he saw that water had been seeping through the walls of the basement. This basement needed a combination of WaterGuard, BrightWall, a UltraSump and a SuperSump pump to take care of their problem. The WaterGuard is connected to the SuperSump pump so any water can be drained into it. The sump pump will flush the water out once it reaches a certain spot. When the sump pump flushes the water, it goes through a piping system and through the LawnScape outlet where the water flows into the yard away from the home.

One problem that a lot of homes have in common, is the lack of proper crawlspace entrance. Almost all homes that we visit have some kind of entrance or cover, but they usually are not as good as they should be. Many of the doors that we see have holes in them, cracks around the door, and many other issues. The integrity of the door is extremely important to the health of the crawlspace.

This was the case for this home in Waynesville, North Carolina. As you can see, the yard around the entrance creates a great funnel leading to the entrance. This was a nightmare for the homeowner when it would rain, because the water would just pool around and seep into the crawlspace. This homeowner got more work done inside the crawlspace, which was another reason that this entrance solution was a necessity.

Our solution was this beautiful crawlspace entrance, it almost looks like something out of a Science-Fiction movie! As you can see, the entrance was attached to the home, and then the area around it was backfilled. This was a great solution to this homeowner's problem of the water pooling around the entrance. This also makes getting into the crawlspace much easier and safer. The most important part of this product is that it keeps water and water vapor from getting into the crawlspace, which will significantly decrease the relative humidity level in the crawlspace.

Minute cracks in basement walls are sometimes fixed with something as simple as paint. Other times, it’s just a little too big of a hassle, and you want to get rid of the problem all in one go. If that’s what you want to do, All-Dry of the Carolinas has a solution for you.

Let’s take a closer look at the ‘before’ photo. In this Waynesville, North Carolina home, the homeowners have already tried the paint approach. The paint tried; it failed. The chips and cracks have become very prominent against the white paint. They stand out like a speck of pepper in a sea of salt. Try as they might, they couldn’t make the paint outlast the cracks. With All-Dry of the Carolinas BrightWall paneling, they don’t have to try. It just does the job.

Our ‘after’ photo shows us the difference. See any cracks? Are there any chips of paint visible? No, sir. BrightWall is designed to completely cover any basement wall. It saves you money. If you have any other issues with the walls, tear it down. It’s as simple as one, two, and three.
