A unencapsulated crawl space can cause a whole host of problems if left unattended.If left unsealed the crawl space can invite mold, mildew, and indoor allergen problems, as well as leave the home above uncomfortable, or with spongy floors that will need to be replaced due to moisture damage. Using our Clean Space Vapor Barrier, a thick, moisture resistant barrier, we've sealed this crawl space off from the potential dangers of an unfinished crawl space.
CleanSpace will prevent moisture damage by creating a durable vapor barrier that blocks water and moisture from penetrating the area, protecting the structure and preventing mold growth. The liner was fastened throughout the crawl space, walls, floor and support columns to ensure the space remain healthy and dry!
A Macon, GA homeowner faced persistent moisture issues in their crawl space. To address this, we implemented an encapsulation process, starting with the installation of CleanSpace Drainage Matting. This matting creates a raised surface with built-in channels to direct water away from the crawl space floor, reducing standing water and improving drainage. By adding this layer before installing the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, the system ensures enhanced moisture control and long-term protection for the crawl space.
Keeping this customers crawl space dry was the objective. To do this, our team installed our CleanSpace Drainage Matting throughout the dirt crawl space floor. The matting is designed to effectively channel water away from the dirt floor and direct it towards the sump system. This will prevent water from accumulating and causing moisture issues like mold growth.
Jesse S. of Macon, GA had a moisture problem in his crawl space which lead to other problems in his house. Mold grew on the joists, beams and subfloor in the damp crawl space. It started spreading into Jesse's bathroom.
Jesse called Lowcountry Foundation Repair to stop the problem at the source. Our team installed a Complete CleanSpace Encapsulation System to remove moisture and reduce the humidity in the crawl space. After the project was complete the mold stopped growing.
