We also installed a SaniDry Sedona which is a dehumidifier that maintains the relative humidity in the crawl space to prevent moisture and microbial growth.
After four days of installation the crawl space was waterproofed, and the homeowner was very happy with the results!

A thorough inspection underneath the home confirmed the excess moisture.

Within just a few days the house was now ready to list on the market! The owners were thrilled.
Our CleanSpace Drainage Matting will keep this crawl space dry by creating a barrier that prevents moisture from seeping through the floor. It works by allowing water to flow underneath the mat, directing it toward a drainage system or sump pump, while also providing a vapor barrier to block moisture from rising into the crawl space. This helps maintain a dry, healthier space and will help to protectthe home from mold, mildew, and structural damage.
