Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This crawl space repair project in Hamersville, OH, was documented through video footage up on our Youtube channel. Shown in this before and after set are the two main products that allow us to ensure the vapor barrier stays protected. The SmartSump sump pump is hooked up to drainage underneath the dirt floor in the crawl space, and was installed in the lowest graded portion of the crawl space. This sump pump will make sure that the vapor barrier doesn't flood. The SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, also seen in the after photo, will make sure this crawl space humidity levels are controlled 24/7, 365. The dehumidifiers condensation pump ties right into the sump pump, making for a completely automated system. The dehumidifier is pointed towards the access well, and is considered the world's most efficient dehumidification system.

This 1990’s home in Jamestown, OH, had a 2-foot-tall block foundation crawl space with no sump system in place. The space carried a musty odor, showing signs of excess moisture and possible hidden issues. We repaired the crawl space by encapsulating the space with CleanSpace liner and SilverGlo insulation, sealing out dampness and creating a clean, dry environment. Not pictured is the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, which helps keep humidity under control year-round. The musty smell is gone, and the home is now better protected against moisture, with improved air quality and long-term structural health.

The owner of this crawl space in Jamestown, OH, wanted it encapsulated after a friend told them that their house smelled funny. The homeowner had grown so accustomed to musty smells emitting from their crawl space that they hadn't even realized the smell wasn't normal. The homeowner then checked the crawl space themselves, and they noticed that there were large pools of water gathering on the floor. The homeowner then gave us a call to repair their wet smelling crawl space with an encapsulation system after they did some research online. We first waterproofed the crawl space with drainage tile and a sump pump system. We then insulated the walls with our SilverGlo insulation panels, which reflect heat back into the space. Next, we sealed the crawl space by wrapping our white CleanSpace vapor barrier all across the floor and up the walls. Lastly, we installed our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to keep the sealed air conditioned. The homeowner immediately noticed that their home smelled and felt fresher after we installed the encapsulation system.
