Crawlspace Encapsulation in Wilmington, DE
This customer had a dirt floor crawlspace that she wanted to waterproof and encapsulate. We started this installation by removing debris and regrading the ground to redirect water towards the sump pump system. Next, we installed a crawlspace drainage system and added an IceGuard to the drainage line for extra protection from flooding during the cold seasons. Then we encapsulated the crawlspace using our CleanSpace vapor barrier.
Wilmington, DE Moldy Crawl Space Repaired
This tall crawl space in Wilmington, DE had lots of problems. First, there was a lot of dampness evaporating up from the floor and from the walls. This needed to be resolved by the installation of the CleanSpace vapor barrier. Second, the moisture had caused one of the joists to start rotting and deteriorating. Attempts had been made in the past to fix this, but they were insufficient. We repaired it properly using a galvanized steel I-beam with SmartJacks to properly support the joists. SmartJack comes with a 25-year, transferable, nationally back, warranty.
There was also a major problem with the insulation. It had sucked up the moisture from the air and become heavy, which caused it to sag and fall. There was a lot of mold due to the fact that fiberglass insulation contains organic materials. The solution was to take it down and haul it away and replace it with SilverGlo around the perimeter. As you can see, the job turned out great and the customers were very happy.
