Wet Crawl Space
This homeowner's foundation was experiencing settlement due to excess moisture in their crawl space. Saturated soil beneath the home became soft and unstable, reducing its ability to support the structure's weight. In this case, poor drainage and a lack of vapor barriers allowed water to accumulate, creating a consistently wet environment that's weakening the soil and leading to uneven sinking of the foundation.
Installing SmartJacks
First, we excavated precise footing holes and filled them with engineered stone for a solid, load-bearing base. Next, we cut galvanized steel support posts to the proper height and securely mounted them beneath the failing beams. Once in place, the SmartJacks were tightened to provide immediate support and restore the floor's level.
SmartJacks
Made from corrosion-resistant galvanized steel, each SmartJack is adjustable, allowing for precise leveling even after installation. This system not only restores structural integrity but also helps prevent further damage to floors, walls, and doors, offering a permanent solution for crawl space support issues.
CleanSpace Vapor Barrier
Our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System offers superior protection against moisture, mold, and musty odors in crawl spaces. Made from a durable, 20-mil thick, multi-layer polyethylene material with a reinforced polyester cord, CleanSpace effectively seals off the crawl space from ground moisture.
CleanSpace Vapor Barrier
This system helps prevent wood rot, structural damage, and poor indoor air quality caused by high humidity. CleanSpace also creates a brighter, cleaner environment that deters pests and makes inspections easier. By isolating the home from damp soil, CleanSpace improves energy efficiency and provides a healthier, longer-lasting foundation.
SmartSump
The SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump features a durable, cast-iron pump, an airtight lid to block moisture and odors, and a built-in WaterWatch alarm that alerts homeowners to high water levels. Paired with our CleanSpace system, SmartSump efficiently removes water from leaks or flooding, preventing mold, wood rot, and structural damage, ensuring a healthier, more secure home environment.
SaniDry Sedona
SaniDry Sedona removes up to 100 pints of water per day while filtering mold spores, dust, and allergens from the air. Compact and self-draining, the Sedona helps prevent mold growth, wood rot, and musty odors, creating a healthier, drier environment while protecting the home's structural integrity.
IceGuard Discharge Line
IceGuard allows water to escape through specially engineered openings if the line becomes blocked by ice or debris. This keeps the crawl space dry even in freezing conditions, protecting the home from flooding and water damage when the sump pump is needed most.
The Importance Of Encapsulation
Crawl space encapsulation is essential for protecting the home from moisture, mold, and structural damage. By sealing the crawl space with a durable vapor barrier, it blocks humidity and water vapor from the ground, helping to prevent wood rot, pest infestations, and poor indoor air quality.
