This homeowner in Brookville, OH, had concerns with their musty smelling crawl space. The builder of the home told them there was a vapor barrier beneath the pea gravel in the floor of the crawl space, so the homeowner was confused as to why it still smelled so bad. Our Inspector dug through the pea gravel to find the vapor barrier covered in water. We explained to the homeowner that the best way to prepare this crawl space for a long future was to encapsulate it properly by sealing the space with our CleanSpace liner. We started by laying down our dimpled drainage matting all across the pea gravel floor, (which will help provide strength & moisture control underneath the vapor barrier we installed over it). We then wrapped the entire space with our CleanSpace vapor barrier, making sure to tape it at all the seams, and we even wrapped the concrete pillars. We also installed SilverGlo insulation along the walls, which will help the homeowner save money on energy in the winter. Lastly, we installed our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to keep the transformed space dry as can be, 24/7. The homeowner was happy with the outcome, and more happy that their spouse has healthy air to breathe.
