Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

The Turtl is designed to give the homeowner easy access into the crawl space while also being able to seal air out of the crawl space.  The Turtl is made of an inorganic material that will never rot or need to be painted.  

In Farmersville, Ohio, this crawl space was experiencing excess moisture, musty odors, and poor insulation—common issues that can affect the entire home. We performed a complete encapsulation, installing drainage matting, CleanSpace® vapor barrier, SilverGlo™ insulation, spray foam on rim joists, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. The “before” photos show a damp, neglected space, while the “after” images highlight a clean, dry, and energy-efficient crawl space that helps protect the home from the ground up.

Many homes in our area have both a crawl space and a basement, as was the case for this project in Germantown, OH. The homeowners were frustrated with their 2.5-foot crawl space, which was musty and emitting unpleasant odors. The smells were especially strong whenever they went down to the basement to do laundry, store items, or work out. Wanting a solution, they reached out to us for crawl space encapsulation.

We sent one of our inspectors for a free quote, and after reviewing the proposal, the homeowners agreed to move forward. Within a couple of weeks, we began the project. For smaller crawl spaces like this one, we have specialized crews experienced in working within tight areas. A two-man team, Mike and Oscar, completed the encapsulation in just five hours, leaving the homeowners with a cleaner, fresher space.

This huge crawl space located in Loveland, OH was cold, dark, and wet. In order to make it warm, dry, and bright we encapsulated it for the homeowner! We started by installing our SilverGlo foam insulation panels all over the walls. We then waterproofed the crawl space by installing perforated pipes in trenches all around the perimeter. The drainage pipes were connected to a SmartSump sump pump, which we installed in the lowest corner of the crawl space. We then installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier all over the floor and up the walls of the crawl space in order to isolate the crawl space from the earth. The vapor barrier also brightens the crawl space thanks to its white reflective color. We then installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to make sure this ginormous space stays dry 24/7. The result of this project made the homeowners very happy, knowing their homes foundation is protected for the future.
