Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Moisture and dampness can wreak havoc on crawl spaces. These Sylvania, GA homeowners knew they were having some sort of moisture issues, as their floors were sagging in places and the air in their home smelled musty after it rained. They researched crawl space issues online and called Lowcountry Foundation Repair to encapsulate their crawl space.

Vented, dirt-floored crawl spaces are still permitted by building codes in many areas, despite the moisture and mold problems they cause. Lowcountry Basement’s Complete CleanSpace Encapsulation System transformed this problem crawl space into a clean, dry area.

In addition to the CleanSpace Drainage Matting, we installed a crawl space sump pump and drainage system to ensure this crawl space stays dry. The drainage system collects any water that enters and directs it to the sump pump, which then efficiently removes the water, preventing moisture buildup and protecting the crawl space from potential damage.

Jackson W. of Walterboro, SC had lived in his home for eight years. Since he first moved in, he slowly noticed condensation on his HVAC duct work in the the crawl space. At first Jackson thought it was just a fluke and didn’t much attention to it.

After a few years of the same issue, he decided to have his crawl space inspected by Lowcountry Basement Systems. The inspector documented the high moisture level and recommended encapsulating his crawl space to prevent mold, wood rot and other structural-related problems. Jackson had the work done and he noticed a lower electric bill and improved air quality in his his home.

The CleanSpace Drainage Matting we installed in this customer's crawl space will help keep it dry by creating a protective barrier that allows water to flow underneath and toward a drainage system. This prevents moisture buildup, reduces the risk of mold and mildew, and protects their home from potential structural damage.
