Before & After Photos

Our crew encapsulated this crawl space using CleanSpace.

Many homes have dirt floors in their crawlspaces. Not all homeowners, however, know the problems associated with dirt crawlspace floors. Some do find out later on down the line and try to remedy this issue with a plastic liner. However, many homeowners are not aware that not all plastic liners are created equally. This is exactly what this Camden, South Carolina homeowner discovered after they continued to have problems after the initial install.

The ‘before’ photo gives us a pretty good overview of the crawlspace before we came out to it. Now take a look at ‘after’ photo. See the difference?

The distance between the two liners’ efficiency is pretty vast. The posts aren’t covered. The liner isn’t pulled tight across the space and, for whatever reason; it’s so thin it almost looks translucent. This is not the appropriate liner for a dirt crawlspace.

Now, come back to All-Dry of the Carolinas liner in the ‘after’ photo. We take our CleanSpace liner up, at the very least, three inches on all surfaces within the crawlspace. If it isn’t suspended and it’s touching the ground, we cover it with CleanSpace to complete the sealing of the space. Otherwise, water vapor and other gases will slip right on through those openings. It’s an eerie look, that’s for sure, but it’s the most effective solution next to getting the space covered with cement. All in all, it looks pretty good.
