Normal vapor barriers are a thin, flat sheet of plastic that is prone to suctioning to the ground giving water no way to dissipate. With Drainage matting, this polyethene material is made with dimples to let water seepage flow under the matting with ease while still being rugged.
We installed an EverLast crawl space door to keep moisture, pests, and outside air out. It helps make the home more energy-efficient and protects the crawl space from damage.
Our Complete CleanSpace Encapsulation System dramatically reduces humidity levels in crawl spaces and prevents nasty, moldy smells from going up into your house.
High humidity in this crawlspace made it the perfect place for insects and rodents to live. A Complete CleanSpace Encapsulation system was installed to create a less suitable environment for the nasty critters.
This Mount Pleasant, SC homeowner contacted Lowcountry Foundation Repair when he noticed settlement issues with his home and wanted to learn more about crawl space encapsulation. He scheduled a free appointment with one of our trusted inspectors.
Our inspector suggested he encapsulate his crawl space with CleanSpace, a seven-layer reinforced polyethylene that isolates the home from the earth and reduces humidity levels. He also suggested the homeowner installs a SaniDry Sedona, a dehumidifier that maintains the relative humidity in the crawl space to prevent moisture and microbial growth. With CleanSpace and a Sedona, this homeowner will be saving money on energy bills and keep his home value from depreciating by 10 percent!
After four days of installation, the crawl space was encapsulated and the homeowner was very happy with the outcome!
